New nappies and wraps

Esme is growing out of some of her smaller cloth nappies and wraps (any excuse to feed my cloth nappy habit)

My Issy bears have arrived from Cheeks and Cherries and also 3 GEN-Y wraps from Fill Your Pants.

I'm not sure about the Issy Bears. I love the prints and attention to detail (the edging on the boosters and cute logo stitched in) but it was a bit of a faff to get the booster into the nappy. The pocket is quite narrow so a lot of wiggling was required.  There was also some wicking through with the cotton nappy, which hasn't happened before on any of Esme's other pocket nappies or the minky Issy Bear.  The nappy comes with two boosters, a day and a night, which are made of bamboo and microfibre. I'm hoping I'll see better results the more I use the Issy Bears as it will probably take a few more washes before they reach their full absorbency.

The nappy is a "one size fits most" with snaps to adjust the rise of the nappy. However, it did look quite large on Esme with her skinny legs. I'm looking forward to trying these again as Esme does look really cute in the ladybirds.

The GEN-Y classic covers are designed to provide a waterproof layer over flat, fitted and prefold nappies and come in wide variety of prints. The inner waterproof layer is PUL and the outer is made from either minky fabric or cotton jersey. The wrap has side snaps to fasten it, which means you can get a really good fit around the legs and waist. So far the performance of these has been good, but we've yet to use them during a preweaned poo explosion!
