INSERTS/ABSORBENCY
POINTS TO NOTE:
- Never put microfibre directly onto baby's bum.
- Put fast absorbing inserts (microfibre/cotton) with high capacity inserts (hemp).
- Pair the fastest absorbing insert on top (closest to your baby's bum) with the highest capacity insert on the bottom (furthest away from baby's bum/next to waterproof cover).
- Cotton is an excellent substitute to microfibre.
- Prewashing your nappies before use is essential. We recommend 3-5 washes depending on material before 1st use.
- High capacity inserts (eg Hemp) take longer to dry and also takes longer to prep. Hemp inserts can take up to 10 washes to reach full absorbency.
- Experiment to find what combination suits best. Levels of absorbency will change over time as your baby grows.
- Some nappies might not have the absorption you'd like, but the fit is perfect. This is easily fixed with a booster or a change up of inserts.
