Cloth bums

[keli]

Was just wondering if your baby has a cloth bum do you find you have to buy bigger clothes as bum won't fit in? If you know what i mean

yes they are a bit more bulky than the disposables, all depends on the clothes really, harry is still in 0-3 and plenty of room for the nappies.

Baby smile and his big cloth bum live in dungarees and and babygros - so that's a yes but we just get the next size up and avoid skinny jeans ~(which IMO looks ridiculous on tiny babes anyway) so it's not too bad

I've just recently out these on Finlay and am still dressing him in his normal sleep suits that he was in - they stretch anyway

But they are more bulky - and so cute!

Thanks for your replies ladies will have to remember that when buying clothes

Bee did you get the LIttle Lambs? Think i remember you saying you did if so how you getting on with them just asking as i've got the birth to potty pack. x

Dont you love the look! Dj is still in sleepsuits most of time so ive not had to buy bigger sizes.

I mainly use pocket nappies (bumgenius) and they are as slim fitting as disposables.

yeah I got little lambs and they r great! They r too big for him and will last ages

I didn't get the birth to potty pack as I have no room for the ones I wouldn't be using. I can easily sell the size 1s and buy the next ones

We use Bamboozle-alikes and I don't need to buy bigger sized clothes although they are bulkier than disposables. I spoke to my nappy lady the other day and asked her if there was a more slimline nappy. She said there was but you start lose absorbancy.
We're just about to go into size 2 nappies so that's a nice little £160 I've got to fork out

Charlotte has always had cloth nappies and she generally has a size of clothes below her age, even though she is long for her age. The clothe sizes are completely random - she is on the 91st percentile for her height but the 6-9 month coat I got was about 2 inches too long in the sleeve! Its trial and error I'm afraid, but the nappies don't make a big difference.

I was told about an online company called cut4cloth (i think) which specialises in baby clothes for cloth nappy wearers, dont know what they are like but hope thats helpful
