What accessories do I need to cloth nappy?

# data[].attributes.body
To make your life a bit easier when using cloth nappies there are a few accessories we include with our kits.

# data[].attributes.body
We include 2 size wetbags with our kits. A large wetbag which we suggest you hang wherever you change your nappies and put the dirties in then wash with the nappies.

A medium wetbag which is great for taking out and about - it has 2 pockets so you can put clean nappies in the front pocket then the dirties in the back pocket to take home with you.

# data[].attributes.body
An all in one nappy is most like a disposable in that it is all one piece attached together. Most of them come with some sort of 'stay dry' liner already attached so using a fleece liner is optional.

Pros:
-Once you have the fit right they go on most like a disposable. -Very convinient for others who may not be so used to cloth and for out and about.

Cons:
- Not always the most absorbent - some people choose to boost them especially with older babies.
- They can be slow to dry and you cannot put them in the tumble drier.

This comes with an additional, seperate booster you can put in the pocket to increase the absorbency of the nappy

# data[].attributes.body
A pocket nappy is similar to an 'all in one' apart from the absorbent, booster element is completely removable from the nappy. After washing you'll need to stuff the booster back into the pocket before fitting it. Most pocket nappies have a fleece stay dry top so a liner is optional but may help with poo disposal. We advise taking boosters out of nappy before putting it in the wetbag once dirty to ensure it is washed thoroughly.

Pros:
- Once stuffed it goes on all in one piece
- Can vary absorbency depending on need
- Can mix and match boosters, you don't have to stick with the same brand eg a prefold makes a good pocket insert.
- Can tumble dry absorbent boosters on low

Cons:
- Need to 'stuff' the nappies before putting them on baby

# data[].attributes.body
This comes with 2 boosters which you can use one of or both. A single one and a larger, flat one you have to fold into 3rds before stuffing into the pocket.

# data[].attributes.body
This comes with 2 absorbent inserts - a larger one you can fold down and a single one. You can use either one of these at a time or both, depending on how heavy wetting your baby is

# data[].attributes.body
This has 2 organic cotton absorbent inserts - a small one and a larger one. Depending on your preference and size of baby you can use either of these inserts or both together.

# data[].attributes.body
An all in two nappy is very similar to the all in one nappies apart from the absorbent booster comes apart from the nappy in some way. Usually the absorbent booster is attached with a popper to secure it when being worn but then can be detached from the waterproof outer for washing and drying.

Pros:
- Once they are 'put together' after washing they are very simple and convienient to use.
- You can boost some of them with additional inserts
- Because the boosters come away you can tumble dry them on low

Cons:
- You have to pop the inserts back into the nappies after washing before use.
- Depending on how heavy wetting baby is sometimes you cannot boost enough.

# data[].attributes.body
Not only does this nappy have 2 absorbent inserts you can pop in it also has a choice of using velcro or poppers so it is a really flexible nappy.

# data[].attributes.body
A fitted or shaped nappy is a nappy that is made of fully absorbent material, there is no additional waterproof layer so it must be used with a waterproof wrap. These are great for heavy wetters and night time use. They can also be boosted for additional absorbency.

Pros:
- Very absorbent - can last all night.
- Can be boosted for additional absorbency
- Can be tumble dried on low
- Great for containment with younger babies

Cons:
- Have to be used with an additional waterproof wrap so a bit 'faffy' to put on.
- Can take a long time to dry as they are very absorbent

# data[].attributes.body
Wraps are the waterproof outter that can be used over the top of a fitted nappy or with a muslin, terry towel, prefold or a pre-flat nappy. You can use any wrap with any other nappy - they do not need to be the same brand.

Pros:
- You can reuse a wrap a few times as long as it isn't dirty, just change the inner absorbent part of the nappy and wipe out the wrap.
- They are really economical as they can be used multiple times
- They dry very quickly.

Cons:
- They need to be used with an additional absorbent inner
- They cannot be tumble dried or dried on heat

# data[].attributes.body
This wrap has fleece cuffs instead of PUL which means it's lovely and soft on baby's skin and you won't get sock marks like with some other wraps.

# data[].attributes.body
This wrap has flaps at either end so you can tuck in a prefold or other booster if you are using them.

# data[].attributes.body
A flat nappy is an absorbent piece of fabric such as terry towelling or muslin that you fold into a nappy shape and secure with a nappy nippa or nappy pin. You then need to put a waterproof wrap over the top. A booster or insert as they are somtimes called are a rectangular piece of absorbent fabric that you use inside a pocket nappy or to boost the absorbency of other nappies.

Pros:
- very economical - using terry towelling flat nappies and a wrap is probably the cheapest way of using cloth nappies
- They dry quickly because they unfold, you can also tumble dry them on low.
- using a combination of flats and boosters you can adjust the absorbency of a nappy very easily so you don't need lots of different types of nappies.

Cons:
- they can be fiddly to put on especially when you are learning how to fold flats

# data[].attributes.body
Prefolds can be folded into a 'pad fold' which is just a rectangle and be used as an insert in any pocket nappy or wrap. Alternatively, you can fold them into a fitted nappy using the angel (shown above) or newspaper fold and use them with a nappy nippa under a wrap.

# data[].attributes.body
Use this as an additional insert for any of the pocket nappies or with a fitted nappy under a wrap for nighttime.

# data[].attributes.body
These are flat nappies that need folding into a shaped nappy and secured with a nappy nippa for use under a wrap. Check out our other padlet on using cloth nappies for an overview and videos on how to fold them.

This is a really thirsty insert and can be used alone ina pocket nappy or wrap folded into a rectangle or as an additional booster with a fitted nappy at night.

We ask that you use liners with all our hire nappies. Not only does it protect the nappies but they help baby feel drier and more comfortable.
We include 2 types of liners in the kits - disposable liners which you must throw in the bin, generally some people like to use these after 6 months when solid waste must go down the toilet or in the bin so these can help to 'catch' it.
Fleece liners - these help keep moisture away from babies skin. If baby is over 6 months or on solid food any solid waste will need to be put down the toilet. When baby is under 6 months/still on exclusively milk you can just throw them straight in the washing machine with the nappies.

# data[].attributes.body
If you're using Terries or prefolds use these to secure the nappy under the wrap.

# data[].attributes.body
These have a tongue which comes out but you can also add extra absorbency in the pocket if you need to.

# data[].attributes.body
All kits come with 10 reusable cheeky wipes to try as an alternative to wet wipes. You just make these damp with water and use them as you would a wet wipe. Wash with the nappies.
We do have the full cheeky wipe kit available for hire so let us know if this is something you'd like to hire on top of your kit.

# data[].attributes.body
You can use these nappies by themselves or with 1 or both boosters depending on how heavy wetting your baby is.

# data[].attributes.body
These are generic, affordable pocket nappies that you can use any insert in. There will be one of this type in your kit but not necessarily the same brand.
