If you are using a liner you should be fine to use a cream, as the liner provides a barrier between the cream and the fleece. You can get flushable liners, as the J&J ones aren't - but those are the ones I use anyway.

Hey Kels,
I've found the microsuede liners work the best as they have better wicking properties & are great at repelling poo! By this I mean it seems to fall off it into the toilet more easily than the microfleece liners. It's also more obvious/visible if there's any cream residue left behind on it. If you're going to use cloth liners when you use cream you'll need to stip them each time. Just put them in the basin or sink with either white vinegar or napisan oxiaction (or a soaker that has enzymes in it) and warm water for about 1-2 hrs before you wash. Be sure you rinse them out really well, or toss them in with your nappies pre-wash cycle. I hope that helps.
(Oh by the way I sell both types of liner on my website, and also a fitted liner for anyone else who uses prefolds & covers )

i got mine from snzzzipants i think - i also have some nap naps liners. you can make them too, or sometimes i see them being sold on TM quite cheaply. mine are microfleece .
i have never stripped my liners or given them special treatment and never have any problems with them at all and cause you can make them so cheaply i dont see any point. (not that i have made any)

I got some NapNap liners to go in our Fuzzi Bunz as I find that the FB are a pain as I have to fold them to fit. The NapNap ones are good, but I wouldn't buy them again as sone poor bugger has just sat down and cut them out of microfleece. VERY EASY! And at about $7m must be cheaper than $1 per liner!!

Yup Andysmummy - thats what I would do next time. No need to do anything besides cut the microfleece to the shape you want it and so much cheaper than buying them from someone.

Yeah and hopefully we can find some cool camo print or something! Is nice knowing that they are going to be very cheap to replace. So am back to using the lovely bum cream with the beeswax in it. Doesn't wash out very well, but it's awesome! Alexander is sooo cute! One of Andy's middle names is Alexander. My fav name in the whole world!

apparently you have to be careful on the sort of microfleece you get tho cause not all wicks moisture, some repel it and you dont want that.

no idea sorry kels ... i just know some of the ladies on TNN had problems with it. i do know that greenbeans sell it by the metre and half metre and it is used for nappies so has been tested for you.
