Default Re: damn fleece sensitivity. so what now?

We went through a 12 month period where Claire couldn't wear synthetics either, so you have my complete sympathy on the restrictions in pretty, soft nappies you now face.

We had a stash that consisted of lots of flannel inner nappes, a couple of cotton rich velour (though even these would set her off with the small poly content) and organic velour. Terry generally caused irritation too, but we could use them for small amounts of time.

For covers it was pretty much all longies or soakers with leg cuffs loose enough not to rub. I also had a couple of pairs of flongies which suprisingly didn't cause a reaction.

Another thing I did was make some muslin liners, nice big cover the whole nappy size ones so we could still use some of our poly lined nappies without her getting red from them.

As I say, for Claire, it lasted about 12months, when we started trialling synthetics again, she TT'ed very soon after so I'm unsure if she completely outgrew it if it was the reduction in time spent even wearing a nappy.
