Just want to share something quickly. Troy is about 6 wks old now. Cloth nappying with him hasnt been very successful and i have to use disposable most of the time. Main problem is he leaks through most of the nappies even the disposable nappies. I have to use fitted nappies without microfleece liner or prefold and i havent been able to sew that many of them b4 he was born. However i do find that using fleece cover helps contain the leaks.
Finally got around to take some photos. The 1st photos is a side snap pocket with 1 layer cotton (for making quilt), 1 layer PUL and 1 layer suede. i find that as he grows older we have less leak problem. this probably due to the nappy being washed several times (no more chemical residue on the stay dry layer) and better fitting. i noticed that if i stuffed the nappy with more absorbant material it take longer for the wee to wick through to the cotton layer.
