would like to swap some nappies which don’t fit us, and don’t get used… am interested in either fitted or AIO, size to fit a 6 kg girl with skinny legs. I have found a few nappies require chunky legs :D which we dont have...


small pink AIO, no brand, handmade by a wham, I also got this second hand, and didn’t get a chance to use it that much, as the seller took 4 weeks to send it to me, and it only just fits her now. It is however very absorbent, never leaked, great little nappy.

medium fitted, don’t know what brand it is, blue with butterflies, long lay in booster. This nappy has a couple of faint
stains on the inside, near the leg elastics. I have not used it, so have not tried to bleach them out, sure they will come out.

Nuddle I could swap you a snap-fastening tots bots Fluffles (yes I bought too many!) for the Abby Grow if you like. :)

The Fluffles would be a pretty good fit I think, and they have a really clever system that lets them grow with the baby. I had my boy in them from newborn (3.5 kg) while my 14kg DD also fit them :thumbsup:

Sarah, thats ok, I tried, its just not a good fit on my munchkin, I have been umming and ahhing, as I like the look of it, and think it could be a great nappy, but not for us.

It's a fitted. I don't have a photo of mine atm, but can take one when it's daylight :)

If you google it, you can find out more info about it. I got mine from the UK, so it has the snap fastening, not snappi fastening (which you can't get in Oz).

I have a couple set aside for swap that have been used maybe 10 times. I realised soon after DS was born that I had bought too many, so I kept using some and put the others aside for "when I get around to swapping / selling them" (*insert missing rolleyes guy*) so they're in excellent condition.

not sure about the fabric used, are they very absorbent?

They're all microfibre, so they're absorbent, but prone to compression leaking when used as they come. I find they work better if I put a booster from another nappy made from a natural fabric (eg BBB or BBH) in the fluffles and I then use the Fluffles booster in the natural fibre nappy. The Fluffles booster will snap into a BBB/H and vice versa.

The main advantage of the Fluffles is that they're fast drying (much faster than any of my other fitteds), but they don't last as long as a BBB for eg. HTH :)

it sais on the website that it comes in two sizes, is it the bigger one? sorry to be so indecisive lol

Nah, you're better off asking first! (And dont' stress if you don't want it :))

It's the bigger size, but it seriously did fit my boy at 3.5 kg - if fit before the BBs were a good fit on him. If you put it on a small baby the bulk of the nappy goes around the baby - it won't leave gaps at the legs. The way it gets smaller is for the front to tuck down, so the leg holes get smaller too (does that make any sense!).

yeah, does make sense, I am just a bit dubious about the fabric, think I might prefer something with bamboo or hemp, but let me sleep on it, will let you know tomorrow, is that ok?

I would be interested in swapping for the pink WAHM AIO.

I have a BB Hemp or I make cotton towelling fitted's with a flip out three layer bamboo booster.:D (they are OSFA and they fit my newborn and my 2.5year old niece)
