Top Five One-Size Nappies

After doing my top five cloth nappies I realised how hard it was to pick just five and so though I'd do top five list for different types of nappies. So here are Petit Mom's favourite one-size nappies and why.

Bumgenius Freetime
Okay this nappy does cost a bit more than some, however it is well worth the cost and not only is it so easy to use, it will last to potty training and will happily continue working well future babies. Best of all you can choose poppers or velcro, it's all up to you. If you are looking into cloth nappies for your new baby and people are asking for gift ideas then why not ask for some Bumgenius Freetimes!

Smartipants
What I love about Smartipants is the no-mess system that the inserts come out during the washing cycle, meaning you never need to touch the soaking wet insert. The Smartipants make great day time nappies and the poppers are strong. These are great value as well, however if you have a heavy wetter you may want to buy some more inserts just incase.

Close Parent Pop-in
I've used older pop-in nappies and love them and now their brand new nappies are out and even better than before. You can get them with minkee or bamboo inserts, bamboo being great for night time and they also sell night time soakers separately if you wish to become a full-time cloth user. They also do printed nappies as well, cost a bit more than their basic coloured nappies, so depends if you like the added cuteness value or don't mind that much.

Tots Bots Easyfit
You can get some fantastic new prints or just the bright colourful easyfits. They are a little bit expensive, however you can ask if people could buy you some NapNap Vouchers to use towards your new baby's cloth nappy collection, as some websites who use these vouchers also sell Tots Bots Easyfit nappies.

Baba+Boo
A one-size pocket nappy. What a like about these nappies are the option to shorter or double over the inserts, plus you get two inserts for each nappy! They are a fantastic price and come in lovely colours and patterns. Perfect day time nappies all the way to potty training age.

Another tough list, but I think the five chosen were worthy to be picked as Best One-Size Cloth Nappies - as chosen by Petit Mom. Thanks for reading!

Top Five Cloth Nappies

I'm asked about cloth nappies often, especially by new-parents and soon-to-be parents find me at The Baby Show (the pink hair and the Smartipants/Tots Bots bags make me easy to find) and then it hit me. Why don't I write a blog post with my five favourite cloth nappies? I will admit picking them wasn't easy but I highly recommend these.

Smartipants
If you want a one-size pocket style nappy but don't want to get your hands in to remove the urine-filled insert then Smartipants is perfect for you. They have a pocket that has two openings and is made so you simply put the nappy in the wash with the inserts still inside and they will pop out during the wash cycle. Smart, right? No wonder they have the name Smartipants! They aren't too expensive and come in lovely colours. Great for day time use.

Little Lamb Microfibre Fitted Nappy
Along with a Little Lamb wrap this is a brilliant and super soft nappy. You can buy it in different sizes which means it'll fit snug and has velcrow fastenings. The wrap they sell also helps lock in around the leg so you will be free from any accidents. Microfibre is also fast drying too and for me this nappy is usually nearly dry after a full washing cycle. I can simply hang it out to dry and within an hour it's practically ready to be worn! Great for bed time if your child is a bit older and not weeing so much during sleep.

Bumgenius Freetime
Another one-size nappy but this one is just great from their funky and colourful designs right down to the fact they allow you to choose from popper or velcro fastening. But what I love the most is there are two inserts which are part of the nappy and you never have to remove them, they are sewn on to the back and front meaning you won't ever lose them and after drying it is already got the inserts so you just lay them down and put the nappy on! Recommend this for day time use.

Tots Bots Bamboozle Stretch Nappy
I've been using my two for a few months now and man they are so soft, specially considering they are bamboo and most bamboo I own goes stiff and hard. These need a wrap but what I like is they have poppers down the side to make smaller and bigger. These come in two sizes and make good bed time nappies.

Little Lamb Bamboo Fitted Nappy
Bamboo is brilliant for big wetters, although I do find they need a tumble dry once in a while to keep soft. But even when a bit stiff it's still super absorbent. Again with the Little Lamb wrap this nappy comes in different sizes and with it's velcro fastening it gets a perfect fit. Great for bed time and super wetters.

Oh man it was hard to pick just five but I think I did a fairly good job. I've not put prices up as these vary from retailers all the time and can change, but I hope it has given you a good idea on cloth nappies.
