We have been having some success with bamboozles diapers with a pul cover (bummis). However the diaper smells quite bad in the morning of urine, so I would love to try wool.

We just tried a selection of pockets and AIO for daytime use and bought some GroBabys which we've yet to use as we're fighting a nasty rash from the prefolds, blisters and all. I called the Ottawa store today and heard all about wool, so I'm really interested in knowing if this will work. I'm also eager to hear about the knitting workshop.

At the moment I am using Bum Genius (regular insert) with 2 newborn inserts. Even though he wakes up 5 pounds heavier (from so much pee) - it doesn't leak through. I started doing this after reading your post about using cloth diapers overnight (rather than disposables). <br />Please have a workshop for knitting at the store - I would love to join it.<br /><br />BelindaBelindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09472921755909682202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1197059819176148237.post-71037246366954642022009-11-03T22:43:27.296-05:002009-11-03T22:43:27.296-05:00First, congrats Bronwyn!

Can't wait to meet Johannes. :)<br /><br />With my 2 year old girl, we use a ME Sandy, with a large hemp (Jamtots) insert - yes, the big one (or a hemp/fleece contoured liner in a pinch), plus a ME cotton liner with stay-dri liner on top to keep the worst of it off her, since she does rash if she's very wet. We top it all off with an Aristocrats wool cover.<br /><br />She wakes up VERY wet most mornings, but we have NEVER had a leak - even when you could literally wring out the diaper (sometimes I can smell the ammonia when I walk in the room - wool is breathable all right!). When she was smaller, she could barely sit up it was so bulky, but she has slept through every night for the last 9 months or so, so it must be working.Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09200978018914701246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1197059819176148237.post-35024350060007170212009-11-03T21:03:38.476-05:002009-11-03T21:03:38.476-05:00My youngest is only 4 months so we can just use a ...My youngest is only 4 months so we can just use a BG with a regular insert and hemp doubler.

With our Grace, we just did Fuzzi Bunz with one regular insert - she never was a big pee-er. Since this soon-to-be-baby very likely being our last, I plan to have fun with cloth diapers this time, and try all sorts of different kinds. Best wishes! see you at the Ottawa store!

I really like them, and appreciate how simple they are to use - but they are too big for our newborn (even though he was born at 8.5 lbs, and is a long one!). So in the interim, we are using prefolds with Thirsties covers - they seem to be working well, and Johannes seems to be very comfy in them! I like the idea of wool, though.. I will check them out next time I walk down the street to the Kitchener store!bronwyn Brockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08643304106054492471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1197059819176148237.post-68533402474775890552009-11-03T10:45:33.783-05:002009-11-03T10:45:33.783-05:00Ive been too scared to try Wool.

When my little one does sleep through the night (which no longer seems to happen...) an extra doubler helps to keep her dry, but not always. I've been dying to try wool for a while, but have always been deterred by the handwashing. Now with the Baby Beehinds it's not so much an issue. I'm wondering about sizing though - I've read that they're fairly low rise and that going up a size might work best for taller thin babies... What do you think? My little one is only 18 lbs, but 29 inches. Medium?

LOL). <br /><br />I just wanted to add that the easiest way I've found to clean poop off a diaper is to let it dry completely (no rubbing or scraping away the poop), then brush it away with an old toothbrush or fingernail brush (Lee Valley sells them). Follow with a regular washing/lanolizing routine and it's good to go! In a well lanolized cover, I've found that there generally isn't much of a stain left behind at all, but anything that is left is easily taken care of by sunning -- either outside or (in winter) spread out in a sunny path on our bed.<br /><br />Wool's a lot easier to use than you think and it has so many rewards!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1197059819176148237.post-69575911073807466422009-11-03T07:15:36.300-05:002009-11-03T07:15:36.300-05:00Oh, I forgot to say that right now we use a pocket...Oh, I forgot to say that right now we use a pocket (BG or FB) with the regular insert plus a hemp insert at night.
