Dave and I have decided we are going to use cloth nappies this time round.

What do you use and why?

Disposable all the way! And they have been proven to be cheaper! The way gas and electric price's are going they cost more to wash then buy!!

I dont have any kiddie's in nappys at the mo but the baby has either Huggies or Pampers, as iv had vouchers for these brands.

My sister use's cloth on Rachel and seems to enjoy them, but she does say there hard work to keep clean and expensive to buy.

Have fun with ur cloth nappys!

Well our council are going to give us financial help if we use cloth nappies, not sure how they will but it would be good if they'd cut our council tax bill lol

I think they give you money back Sarah, so yeah in theory you will be cutting your Council tax bill down.

I think if I had another one I would like to try re-usable, but think I would still use disposable if I was going out.

Hi Sarah,

Don't know if you have decided (since you're very nearly there!) but we use 'real' nappies and have done since Eleanor was born.

We use the Bamboozles Tots Bots and they are just great! They don't take up that much room to dry and they're really easy to get clean. We went for the coloured ones to in Size 2 which are much more interesting!

The only downside for us really is that you have to wash them quite a bit before real use as they don't get up to full absorbancy til you've washed them a few times...

Sorry, forgot to mention, we were under Bromley Council when we got our reward, but they gave us £30 back if we gavhem a copy of the receipt. Not sure what West Kent do though although I think it's something similar....

I used real nappies on duncan and washing isn't really a problem trust me (we can only wash once a week) and it was great we saved over 200 pound by using them and i would use them again, if the time ever comes...xxx

We've bought our nappies, we've gone for littlelamb ones www.littlelamb.co.uk
We've bought birth to potty and they cost us £280, and chose bamboo ones as they are much softer. I cant wait to use them!
