hiya just a Q for those who have used pockets on their newborns... what are they best to stuff with?
I used cloth on Gabrielle since she was about 8 months and have most of the time used old cloth flats folded up. However I feel that that would make a newborn pocket too bulky. I have some flat squares of bamboo (from green beans) as well which I put into Gabrielles night nappy but using them alone I find they get sopping wet. Any advice appreciated! |

| I just used 1, sometimes 2 microfibre inserts depending how long I wanted the nappy to be on and that worked well for us |

I used 1 microfibre booster or 2 std microfibre inserts and they easily lasted 9 hours.

My sister used homemade pockets stuffed with 3-4 layers of microfibre on her newborn with no probs. -------------

same here, 1-2 inserts or even 1 insert and a booster for a newborn that needed to be changed every couple of hours.
The good thing about the microfibre is that it stays soft when it's wet rather than going ridgid like the cotton flats and hemp etc ------------- http://lilypie.com">
