I'm so excited, I have 2 nappies on their way to me. I have a retro blue dots Foxybot (and a couple of mama pads with it) which was posted on Tuesday and a rockmelon D'lish which is going in the post today! I haven't had any new nappies for ages and I'm soooooo excited!! I'm hoping the Foxybots arrives today so Leo can wear it to bed tonight 
Anyone else waiting on fluffy post? Vic xx |

I was just about to say I'm waiting on something, but it came today! Yummy baby beehinds purple bamboo/organic cotton OSFA fitted nappy  Got a berry plush northern lights medium yesterday and a tots bots bamboo booster. I'm loooving bamboo  but... now I don't have any fluffy mail arriving  so I'll have to buy more on payday...-------------

Yay, my Foxybots package just arrived!! The nappy is so cute (although weird how the brown spots have green underneath huh?), can't wait to try it on Leo. And the mumma pads look divine!!! They may be old style but they look totally lush and so well made - I grabbed such a bargain on them!
Ooooh, I'd love to see a pic of Seth wearing that! I've heard really good reviews about them and they look so comfy to wear. Even though I don't do 2-parters

I wouldn't suggest it for a bigger baby/toddler than him - I had heard it was a small OSFA. He's on the 2nd from tightest snaps, with a bit of wiggle room at 10.8kg/82cm On the other hand, it's very trim I have him in one of my designer bums medium merino covers over it, and it's on the tightest snaps. To compare he has snappied prefolds on the tightest, but all other fitteds on the middle snaps (of 3) and I reckon this will easily hold him overnight for 12 hours with maybe a bamboo booster, or hemp prefold between the nappy and cover.-------------

Thanks for the great pic Alia! Seb's a lovely model
I had also heard the the Beehind was a small OSFA, with a short rise. Seb's figure is the total opposite to Leo - who's very short & chunky. Those Designer Bums merino covers look gorgeous - have you used them much? Also, do you let Seb run around in his fitted nappies without a cover when you're at home, or do they always need a cover? I've seen some that look so cute but it always seems such a shame that they need to be covered up! Vic xx |

I usually put covers on (Seb can undo velcro like nothing, and even snaps if he puts his mind to it, so I have to watch him lately if he's not wearing pants, let alone covers) but then I have a mixed stash of pockets/fitteds/AIOs, so my two daytime covers are both Designer Bums merino and yummy The rise on this fitted is fine for Seb btw... but then he doesn't seem to have a butt!
Paua is the top cover, and bottom is a close-up of the Fire. They do tend to fade a bit (paua was in use for maybe 2 weeks when those photos were taken, fire was brand new) -------------

What's even sadder is looking forward to AF's next visit so you can try out your new Foxybots mama pads! 
Leo has gone to bed in his new Foxybots nappy - it is soooooo soft (is the minky fabric different Stacey?), I couldn't stop stroking his bottom as I carried him to his room! The fit is perfect on him

I love my minky nappies I've got... 5? now. 2 pockets, and 3 AIOs. They are just delicious! My Foxybots is a fleece? I think... not sure, but not Minky, but it's great for nights because the waterproof layer holds up much better than PUL. -------------

Vic - it's slightly different. All the different patterns/varieties of minky are a bit different to the touch.. but they are all really soft. The one you got seems to be extra soft. |

Woot, congrats! I love my berry plush now that I have a medium... I wasn't too convinced on the Large, but even though Seb is supposedly right near the end of the weight range for the mediums, they fit him fine (and on approx the middle snaps, so go figure! Much trimmer than the large. At least I have one that I can love if he has a growth spurt I think the inner is minky (and the soaker is hemp) but I'm not 100% sure on that...-------------

Aww that is such a cute nappy (and gorgeous model)
We got a large berry plush and I think if I get another I'll get medium cos Jack has slimmed down heaps recently. We got a medium foxy too and I love it its oerfect sizing for both kids. They are definately my favourite pocket. |

It's my absolute favourite too. The fit is just so perfect on Leo. I'm waiting on my D'lish to arrive and the only way it could top this is if it's a really slim fit, but even then it couldn't look as cute!

The large Foxybots have been adjusted and are now slightly bigger (in the rise) than they used to be so if you haven't bought one of the new fabrics you might find that they fit Charlie better

All thanks to your gorgeous nappies!
It was so funny when I was trying to take his photo and he was being so cheeky. After I took the first one I said "OK, turn around and show mummy your gorgeous bottom" so he turned right around and posed with his hand on his bottom

My D'lish arrived today! Thanks so much Karyn, can't wait to try the sample of wipe cubes out! The nappy really is tiny but fitted a dream (unbelievably). It really is the closest to a disposable fit I've ever seen. Not sure it will last Leo til potty training as he's already on the middle setting of the large but it's great in the meantime. Leo obviously felt felt comfortable in it because he pooed in it within 5mins of having it on  I'm pleased to say that even with a squishy raisin-filled poo the D'lish contained well!
Here is a pic of the nappy (pre-poo!).

Aww gorgeous, yeah I found them so small too I thought they must of sent the wrong size but amazingly they fit fine.
I've decided I might sell the nappies I don't love so I can buy more d'lish and berry plush. |

Can't believe it - I had Leo in the D'lish for the second time today and within half an hour he had pooed again!! So I still don't know what it's absorbancy is going to be like, but I'm pleased to say the D'lish contained well again!

I'm waiting on 14 bumgenius OSFA from Tweedle. They were supposed to take 2-3 weeks, but now its gonna be another 2-3 weeks! Grr!  I ordered them before realising mothers instinct had the same price discount on them and they were in stock so could have had them. Now I'm not going to be using MCN's for about a month as dad is going to have Jack during the day so I won't get to use them when they get here anyway
