In my quest for the perfect night nappie we found Baba & Boo, Eve wanted to help and kindly sent us one of theirs to try. We recieved the gorgeous purple pocket nappie with popper system which allows the nappie to grow with your baby - a onesize nappie. (they fit from birth to potty-training (usually 35lb)).
I found the nappie to be very soft, inside and out. The inside is microfibre lined, this draws wetness away from baby's skin, keeping them dry and soft. It came with two microfibre inserts, one big, one booster. The outer layer is waterproof (made from PUL), which keeps all the soggyness inside the nappie! Also making it very hard wearing and durable.
I was greatfull of reciving the handy hints, tips and washing guide that they send out with each purchase. They include it to help you get the best out of your nappies! I followed the simple and clear instructions to wash the nappie, then waited for it to dry. It impressed me by drying within the day! Great if you are running short of nappies or have a few little nippa's!
The fit was really good on Lydia, the only slight amendment i'd make would be to add an extra popper or two on the side tabs. This would stop the tabs/flaps from slipping down/out if you have a wriggley baby, as i do! I have spoken to Eve and she has mentioned that they're working on new and improved nappies with some different features right now, these will include a few extra poppers. She also offered to send me one when they're ready so i can compare the two for her :)
I was sent this to use as a night-time nappie, however i woke to find Lydia had leaked! I think for night-time use you deffinatly need to add more inserts. Bamboo inserts would be great as they tend to absorb more. However this same nappie has recieved other rave reviews about it as a night nappie. I think this is dependant on how a 'heavy wetter' your baby is, rather than a sizing issue. Lydia wets quite alot over night and always has her 'morning poo'! This i feel was to much for the cute little nappie.
We also tried this nappie in the daytime and it was fab! So i'd say its great for a 2-3hr wear, and it contained a runny poop very well! With no explosions or leaks :)
At only £6 a nappie including two inserts and excellent service, i feel this is great value for money. It also come in a variety of other gorgeous colours and designs at Baba & Boo's website. There you can find other adorable items for your wee'ones, and fabulous gift ideas.
All the storys from my life as me and as a mummy! Also including my product reviews...

Night nappie review 1: Real Easy by HipHip Baby!
Our desperate search for a night-time cloth nappie that works!
I got in touch with Zoe over at Babykind and she was keen to help us end our search. Zoe was very helpful, kind and polite, excellent customer service was recieved. Zoe sent us three of their Real Easy Nappies to test and review. These nappie's can also be used for day time, and as they come for a 'light' bedtime wetter, or just add one of your regular inserts into their roomy pockets for night-time use.
They have so many gorgeous colours/patterns/designs to choose from. So i was very excited when received three of them!!! My favorites from the stunning collection :)
Plum Red Minky
Citrus Spots Minky
Minky Summer Flowers designs
There are five sizes to choose from;
Extra-Small 4 - 12lb (1.8 - 4.5Kg)
Small 7 - 18lb (3.2 - 8.2Kg)
Medium 15 - 30lb (6.8 - 13.6Kg) *these are what we used
Large 30 - 45lb+ (13.6 - 20.5Kg+)
Extra-Large 45lb+ (20.5Kg+)
With the poppers giving a snug,secure and adjustable fit, most baby's would only ever need the small and medium until they're potty trained. That saves alot of money, rather than having to buy a whole new batch of nappy's every six months or so.
The super soft Minky outer is really luxurious to feel, doubled with a stretchy,anti-wicking waterproof layer that's silky and smooth. There are two built in inserts, one a super fluffy double layered micro terry and the other a triple layered organic cotton flip out. Combining the latest fabric technology for top performance, with the natural benefits of organic cotton. A super soft fleece lined inside, protective against staining, soft against baby and keeps them dry. No bulky seems around the legs or back, giving a comfortable 'bulk-less' fit.
They came with some very clear and helpful instructions for usage,washing and care (info) so i washed and dried them as per the instructions, anxiously waiting to get them on Lydia! I didn't have to wait to long as they dried in the same amount of time as a typical two parter nappy does.
Then the next test was for me to pick which one to use first! They're all gorgeous!
We finally decided to go with the Summer Flowers design. Lydia seemed pleased with the choice, smiling at the nappie and looking at the brightly coloured flowers.
I was very pleased with what a great fit they give, very snug,secure and comfortable for baby. An extra row of poppers on the side is an excellent idea as some other branded nappies pop together with only one row and the sides seem to slip down,poke out, the inserts move or bunch up. Not this one! I was very pleased at how generous, yet 'bulk-less' it was, some night nappies make baby look like the Michelin man once dressed! This was like any other normal sized pocket nappie :)
With lots of failed night-nappy trials, Lydia being little miss fidget bum and having a dodgy tummy bug, I was slightly dreading the whole night in a cloth nappie! I added one more small extra bamboo insert and a re-usable fleece liner, the liner is not needed but i didn't want to ruin the inside on the first go!
But in the morning i woke up to.....No leaks! No exploding poo all over everything, Nothing! Not even a dribble of pee escaped, this nappie stayed in the right position all night! I thought the flip-out insert would've needed a popper or two at the top to hold it in place, but it didn't. Thanks to the super absorbancy and excellent fit, not a slip, twist, lump or bump was out of place in the morning. I was so surprised and happy, i even did a little dance around the nappie! Hehehe :)
These ''new-generation'' are little miracles! I am definitely wanting more in the next size up, should Lydia grow out of them before potty training :)
With prices starting at just £10.99 you need some in your nappie sack!
Get your hands on these great valued, super Eco-friendly, nappies that actually work!
They also sell other great Eco-friendly baby wear including bibs, clothing and shoes :) And do deals on purchases over certain amounts :)
