Help- I'm officially a cloth nappy user!!

@ Anina

The Econobum is a far far better quality cover. The textile used is 100% polyester laminate whereas the Stegi is basically a type of PVC and it degrades and becomes brittle very quickly. The Econobum is also covered by a 1 year warranty. The Econobum also has presstuds and has a fantastic snuggly fit with no leaks and no yucky velcro to contend with.

Here is a link to the details from Cotton Bottoms in Egypt which make them. They are fantastic. I used the Prefold system for overnight use with my Son for the weekend and wont go back to AIO use for overnight again. I used two prefolds with one cover and my son drank 2 bottles and slept through and was not wet in the morning. They really really work.

Hi all,

2kid mom, tell me a bit more about the quality of the econobum covers, what other covers on the market do they compare to? I will be buying some new covers for Claudia over the next couple of months. For Stefan I bought mostly Stegi, and they are not great quality so most of them can't be re-used for Claudia. Since I am planning on having more kids later on (much later...) I want to buy stuff that will last. At the moment I buy her BM covers, but if you say the econobum is so great, then I might want to try them.

Hi Laurakim

What brand did you go with? Interested to hear your opinion when you have started using them. If they are available on our website www.doodlebums.co.za also please feel free to leave a review there. It's always good to have users of the products leaving reviews.

Look forward to sharing many cloth stories with you once your baby is here.

We are going cloth with this baby So in about 6 weeks I can answer!

I bought a pack from birth to potty training - all done and paid for in one shot!

Just had to pop in and say how much I am LOVING having a baby in cloth nappies. The cherub tree's work so wonderfully and are so easy to use. Her bum actually doesn't look big in them at all, you cant tell she's wearing cloth.

Such bliss and I so wish I had this option with my first baby.

No preassure, I think I am just overly excited about these nappies. But sarah, when you can I could highly recommend them.

Sarah, the Woolworths waterproofs were R20 for two.

My boy also still nurses through the night - 3 to 4 times!

I don't like the Stegi waterproof - I don't like anything with Velcro actually! lol

Hope the Muslin & Stegi works for you too.

Unfortunately even R20 is stretching the bank already this month I didn't buy any Stegi covers, was given them. They work but I much prefer the BM covers and even more I love my Bumbeetles!!
