Flat Terries

I got some flat terries nappies to have in just incase as we live quite far away from a supermarket and the local shop closes so i thought that we should get these and have them as a standby option - i thought i would give them a go with the traditional safety pin and they are quite hard work - having got some nappy nippa's they are not too bad and much easier to use. I don't like the wraps that you have to use and they seem to make the nappy even more bulky however i do like the idea and that there are no chemicals next to my babies skin. Over all they are easy to use once you have got the fold sorted and they are cheaper then disposables and cheaper then ...  Read the complete review

Dismiss the thought of toiling over a boil wash, that is as old hat as boil washing your regular laundry. The reality of terry squares today is this: You take a terry squre, fold into thirds, fold it over, ...  Read the complete review

As a mother of three children, I feel I have an ideal opportunity to voice my opinion on the benefits of terry nappies. One thing that always annoys me is the mothers out there who feel that unless they are doing what everyone else is, they are failing in some way. It is sad that even when it comes to nappies they are so easily led by advertisers and companies whose only objective is to make money. Does it really matter what covers your childs bum?? Will what you use have adverse affects on your child in later life?? I for one don,t think so, the main function of a nappy is to collect all of our little darlings output. End of story! They have no ...  Read the complete review
