Thought I’d go for it and use a real nappy on Monday night! Can’t believe my luck when Holly slept solidly for the first time throughout the night! I expected to have very damp bedlinen and baby but no, all was kept in. I have to say though I learnt my lesson during the day when I did not put enough padding in a nappy and she did get damp quite quickly. I am now on my third day of using reusables and today I have used nothing but real nappies. I have washed a load too and found that some dry quicker than others – since we’ve had brilliant sunshine today I’ve been lucky. Wonder how they would do just on my airer?
Will let you know how I get on tomorrow since Grandma is babysitting and I’m going to ask her to carry on using the real nappies!!
Hi, I'm considering real nappies so I'm curious to see how you get on. I'm about to have baby no 3 and feeling guilty about environmental impact of another pile of disposables. Keep posting!

Hi Cheryl
ReplyDeleteWhen baby arrives I'd really recommend getting hold of a trial kit if you can like Hannah has done. This means you can try out the different types of nappy over about a month and find out which ones suit you and family the best. Try typing your postcode into our nappy finder: www.goreal.org.uk/finder or give us a call 0845 850 0606
Let me know if you have any questions,
