Okay ladies - this may seem like a silly question!:o

I am expecting my first baby in October, and since discovering your website have decided that I am going to give cloth a go! :yelclap: I am quite excited about using modern cloth nappies - but my friends and colleagures aren't as excited for me:thumbsdown: I figure it's their loss.

I have decided that I am probably going to use hemp boosters becuase of their absorbency and the way other cloth mums on this website rave about them. Sorry if these questions have been asked before - there's just so much I'm trying to get my head around at the moment:rolleyes:

Is there anywhere that I can buy hemp boosters / prefolds in bulk? I want to stock up, as I'm trying different types of nappies and not all of them come with boosters.

What are your favourite types of hemp boosters / prefolds to use and where did you purchase them?

If I am to buy some hemp fabric from Bubbaearth to make my own prefolds which type do I buy? There are so many different types of fabric in stock and I dont know where to start!

Any advice is much appreciated! Thanks for your help ladies.

Congrats on giving cloth a go :yelclap: Its great, & not near as much work as it was made out to be. Greens kids are where I get Hemparoo's from (hemp boosters). Thats all MJ needs at night with a microfibre for up to 14hours :thumbsup:

Hope that helps

I bought a heap from Cherub's Kiss, you can get your basic hemp booster or a "deluxe" kind, with extra hemp and a fleece top. Pretty cheap too. :thumbsup:

If you get the fabric from bubba earth, the hemp jersey is best value by weight - and it's worth picking up if you get a reasonable amount :) I find hemp is great in combination with microfibre - I often use a reasonably small piece of hemp with a microfibre cloth (Big W) and it works really well!

Thanks for your tips girls. Will check out those sites now and see how much more money I can spend:)

It really is quite addictive this cloth business, isn't it?:yes:
