Changing to Cloth Nappies

Back in April, 4 Manchester Women hosted a competition during Real Nappy Week. Eve from Baba + Boo was offering the winner 3 cloth nappies. I wasn't the winner, but I had posted in a comment that I'd wanted to use cloth, but I had never given it enough thought and research. Eve very kindly sent me a cloth nappy to try out.

I received the Moo nappy with 2 microfibre inserts. 


I always thought that you had to buy disposable inserts but that's not the case! As these are microfibre, they can be washed and reused too!
I couldn't wait to try it. I first put it on C in the middle of the day for 2.5 hours (it's suggested that 1 liner can be used for 2-3 hours, but you can use both liners for up to 6 hours). At first, the buttons were a little bit confusing but with a little playing about, I got it fitted properly. We had no leaks whatsoever and I was really shocked at how easy it was!


I put it straight in the wash and have been using it once every day for the past four days. I can't believe I was so scared to use them before. I've definitely been converted and I'm hoping to now build up my cloth nappy stash so I can get rid of disposables for good!

(Disclaimer: I did receive this nappy free of charge but I was not required to write a review. I wanted to share my thoughts with my readers. All thoughts and opinions are my own.)
