We are aware that cloth nappies are another investment for new parents. At the same time though, it is important to realise that cloth nappies are the only piece of clothing that your baby is going to wear 24 hours a day for up to 2 ½ years. For added convenience we can now provide you with a lay-by service so you can pay your cloth nappies off over a set period of time.

The Cloth Nappy Company:

I have purchased all of my nappies from The Cloth Nappy Company and have been entirely happy with the service and advice I have received. I purchased all my nappies before my baby was born (first child) and I had no idea what I would be in for. I used them from day one and have been more than impressed and have been back for more as baby has grown. The only time when I am not impressed is when I have been caught short and had to use a disposable which ALWAYS ends in a leak or an explosion. I rave about them to all my friends and so does my husband and my day care centre. Thanks TCNC for everything!! (Received from Lisa by E-mail 27 Sept 2011) 

TotsBots - Fitted Cloth Nappy:

Just to let you know that we love the new night time nappy!! Shes dry and it fits really well!!! It does however take a long time to dry the inner.......but thats not so much of a problem. Love the feeling of the nappy and how little bulk there is! (Received from Lisa by E-mail 26 Sept 2011).

Just want to tell you guys that i love the tots bots!! They are the best over night nappies i have tried yet. Only need one extra booster for my 2yr old for 12 hours! I think that great. THANKS

I like the tots bots wraps the best as they don’t have the strong elastic so don’t leave marks but still manage to contain the mess. (Received from Mary by e-mail, November 7, 2011)

Real Nappies & Little Lamb Flushable Cloth Nappy Liners:

Thanks so much for the nappy liner samples. Both the Little Lamb Paper Liners and the Real Nappies Corn Fibre Liners are faultless. Both caught poo well, and the poo seemed to stick better to the liners rather than to a wee bottom. I like to rinse and reuse 'pee-only' liners and both these liners rinse very well. They didn't end up mis-shaped and stretched like the viscose ones we currently use. So we'll definitely be ordering some once our current supply dwindles.

I love the little lamb liners, they catch the mess really well, and also I like to put the pee only ones in the wash with the rest of the nappies, and they liners hold up really well even in the washing machine after a couple of times! (Received from Mary by e-mail, November 7, 2011)

Real Nappies - Prefold Cloth Nappy & Wrap:

I've used Real Nappies since my son was about 5 weeks old (now 9 months). I find them really easy to wash and any stains come out after soaking/washing or on drying in the sun. I like the natural fibres of the cotton and really notice a difference between a wet real nappies insert (no odour) and a wet microfibre insert of some other nappies that I have (strong odour!). Also very hard wearing and the great thing is that, as you go up the sizes, you can still mix and match the wraps and inserts (for around home) so you get a lot of use out of each size range! (Received from Emma by E-mail 23 Sept 2011). 

As a new Mum I was keen to provide my baby with the healthiest most natural start in life but found that often this idealist green approach was hard to maintain as our lives are much busier than that of our grandmothers who never had to take baby out in the car etc. So when a friend lent me the snug wrap to try I was sceptical that I could keep it up as I had failed with the pins and nappy pants before. However after two days I was on line and purchased my first set. The system is as easy to use as disposable nappy and I found I didn’t have to change any more than I did before, I have subsequently had three more children and apart from a couple of new wraps for my forth have used the same ones.

Ecobubs Wool Pocket Nappies:

All I can say is WOW!! The nappy arrived first thing this morning, so I put it in the wash with our other nappies and hung it on the line. When it came time to put it on it was a great fit on the medium settings. I was a bit worried about just using the 2 microfleece boosters, so I shoved our hemp booster in at the back too. ... and this morning... no leaks and no sogginess on the outside, just a happy dry baby! Thank you so much, we were seriously considering (against our better judgement) changing to disposables at night because of all the night time leaks that we'd been having. I know that this was only one night, but it gives me hope that we can keep our wee heavy wetter in cloth at night. (Posted by Juliet on www.ecobubsnappies.com)

Itti Bitti Tutto - One Size Fits All (OSFA) Cloth Nappy:

Love Itti Tuttos they really are the perfect nappy. If you have two children of different sizes in cloth its so handy to be able to just adjust the poppers and fit either of them. The inside poppers are genius as they stop the sides drooping on an active toddler thus preventing leakage and the bright funky colours and patterns are very eyecatching and great for promoting cloth (Posted by Emma on www.clothnappy.info, May 17, 2011)

Oh my goodness, I am such a BAD MOTHER! I completely forgot to change LO after her nap so she was in a Tutto for… ahem… nearly 8 hours! I just took it off and it was nearly as heavy as a night nappy after a full night, but her skin was pretty much dry. I’m very impressed, and this is after just one wash (I did use a bamboo mini booster but still very impressive). (Posted by Rachel on www.clothnappy.info, May 31, 2011)

Little Lamb - Fitted Cloth Nappy & Wrap:

The little lamb nappies are quite good. ... the bamboo ones are lovely and soft, although they do take forever to dry! 24 hours outside then another 12 on the hotwater cupboard seems to do it nicely. The microfiber nappies are great for drying so good to have in the cupboard. The little lamb wraps are not my favourite..., but they fit over the nappy well so I do use them for short day time spells. I haven’t tried the little lamb nappy overnight so cant comment on that, although they do seem to be pretty absorbent. (Received from Mary by e-mail, November 7, 2011)

Just want to say how much I love your nappies! Have been using them for a few weeks now on my 3 month old little boy and they are amazing! Had been umming and aahing about cloth nappies and so glad we went for the plunge. Every time I've used disposables since then they've leaked poo everywhere (this had always been a problem and meant most of his littlest clothes have yellow stains), but the reusables have never leaked poo at all! This has reaffirmed to me just how much better they really are for us. Thank you Little Lamb!" (Posted by Helen B on www.littlelambnappies.com)

Rockin' Green Laundry Detergent:

I've tried Lavender Mint Revival in Hard Rock and find it awesome. It cleans really well and leaves no stinkies! I find I don't need to do a final rinse as there is no soap residue. Really pleased and I will be continuing to use it.

I was absolutely delighted with this product. It cleans the nappies thoroughly and there is no stink anymore. I wont be using anything else. - Fantastic for hard water!! I washed some nappies that had been sitting in storage and they came out smelling sweet and clean - highly recommend, especially for those with hard water. I have struggled to find a laundry powder that is suitable for both nappies and hard water.....now I have Rockin' Green!

I have the Classic Rock and I love it! I was embarrassed to use our cloth nappies around other people because the second they got a fresh wee in them they would smell terrible :( and I didn't want to put people off cloth nappies. I was constantly having to strip wash them and now that I think about it my son would get a rash pretty frequently which I guess wash due to the detergent build up in the nappies from my other washing powder. Well anyway there's no more YUK smells and no more rash and I'm back to using cloth all day since starting with this. We cold wash with a double rinse and air dry. So happy with Rockin Green and will be buying again. (Posted on http://www.rockingreennz.co.nz/raves).

Washable Bamboo Breast Pads - Little Lamb:

Little Lamb washable breast pads in my opinion are THE BEST washable breast pads I’ve ever used and I’ve tried many brands over the years of breastfeeding my three children. So why are they go good.....?

- They are extremely slim making them discrete in your bra and under clothing. You’ll have no more telltale round outlines under clothes even with fitted tops. 
- They are lined with a breathable PUL coating to ensure you don’t get any leaks. Many of the washable breast pads I tried didn’t have a waterproof layer at all. Once these other pads were saturated the milk would begin to seep through to your bra and clothes. 
- They are made of incredibly soft and super absorbent bamboo which holds more liquid than traditional cotton pads. 
- Bamboo is naturally anti-bacterial and anti-fungal reducing the risks of yeast infections.
- The diameter of the pads is 11cm so they will not slip about or peek out of your top.

Simply pop these into your bra and position centrally over your nipple. They are highly absorbent and even with my strong milk let down I never needed to change them due to them being saturated. In the first few months of breastfeeding I did change them during the day purely for hygiene but over time as my milk flow began to settle down they were perfect for all day use. I also used these for managing night time leaking too. I wash them with my normal household washing at either 30 or 40deg and dry them on an airer over night. You may find putting them into a small mesh laundry bag helps prevent them getting separated or lost in with other washing. The breast pads come in packs of 5 pairs and are tied together with a ribbon to reduce packaging. You will need between 5-10 pairs depending on your milk let down and your washing frequency.
