Reusable Nappies?!! Help!!
Hey ladies, gatecrashing from the June forum!!
We've decided to use reusable nappies and i've been looking online but there are SO MANY!!!
Has anyone used reusables before and which are better.... all in ones or the ones with liners?!
Also which make is best?! Tots Bots, Wonderoos etc?!
Suppose this is more aimed at 2nd time mum's who have used them before or ladies who have friends that use them!
Help!
Thanks

They're very easy indeed and the inners dry in the airing cupboard overnight. I'd recommend 20 inners and at least 3 outers per baby. The outers sometimes need a bit of a rinse but they're so lightweight they're dry on the radiator in 20 mins or so.
As long as it's only wees and not poos, they contain everything with no leakage for up to 10 hours overnight. During the day I normally do a change every 3 hours or so. They contain poo better than disposables (in my admittedly limited experience, as Lily is only 9 weeks).
You can buy a birth-to-potty kit for ??200 - definitely the best value way of doing it if you're definitely going to use them until the babas are potty trained.
(You can't sell reuseables on ebay anymore so people may have spares).
Only thing I would say is unless you are totally committed I wouldn't buy too many as you may change your mind once babies are here!
erinsmummy - I think they do a scheme at our council actually so will be looking into that thanks.
& missymoo thanks for that link!
