Nappies and Wraps

Shaped Nappies

Absorbent material nappy which fits snugly around your baby.  Used with a separate wrap

so you are required to put on two layers. A shaped nappy is probably the most leak proof of

all nappies  and works particularly well on new born babies

Wraps
Covers/outer part used with shaped nappies to prevent wetness on clothes.  You need to buy about
1/3 of the number of wraps to shaped nappies as you can usually use them 2 - 4 times before washing.

All-In-One Nappies
Just one piece to put on, so very similar to using a disposable nappy

Pocket Nappies
Just one piece to put on.   They consist of a stay dry inner layer and a waterproof outer

layer.  It is like an envelope which you stuff with an absorbent booster/insert. The  big
advantage of pocket nappies is that after washing they dry quickly because you pull out the

booster and dry seperately.

'Onesize' verses 'sized' nappies

The advantages of buying 'sized' nappies (ie small, medium and large) is that they fit your baby 

well and are therefore generally slim fitting and neat.  If you are planning to have more

children 'sized' nappies will last longer in terms of wear and tear as your baby will only be

in each nappy for a period of 6 - 12 months. The downside is that they will cost a bit more money. 

The advantages of 'onesize' nappies is that they are very economical, you can buy one set of 20. 

(If you have 2 children in nappies at the same time you will need to buy a few more.)  They

are usually very bulky on newborn and smaller babies, but it is worth remembering that babies

grow quickly in the first few months of their lives!  There is also the possibility the nappy will

become too small before your child is completely out of nappies.  You may find it useful to

have a mixture of 'sized' and 'onesize' nappies in your kit.  This will give you the economical

benefit of having some 'onesize' nappies but you will also have the advantages of  some

'sized' nappies that fit really well while your baby is small
