IB D'Lish hourglass booster's falling apart

[Scarletgirl]

So far on 4 nappies but I can see that others are starting to go too
They are sew-ins only a few months old, so far 10 cent sized holes????

I have used IB's for years (2 DS's) & this has never happened. Washed as per instructions.
Please tell me it's a bad batch

I don't want to go to sposies but in my mind IB D'lish are the perfect nappy. I have tried just about every kind of cloth nappy & I don't want to change.

Contact Sue Scarletgirl, she has great customer service and will discuss the problem with you!

I've never had any problems with mine but others have on occasion so ust let her know.

I have sent Sue some photos yesterday so am not expecting a reply as it's a w/e. I guess I just wanted to know if it has happened to anyone else.
I know it's silly but I'm panicking. After using IB for so long, I don't want to change.

Sue has excellent customer service and has very high standards for her nappies so I believe this will be just a bad batch. I'm sure you will work it out with her.

Happened to me too...I got some replacement tri-folds a few months ago, and now the hourglasses are all cactus so I'll have to contact Sue again

Are you having issues with any other nappies? What age is bub?

Heaps my bamboo nappies have recently disintegrated, I put it down to toxic teething wee...that includes, IB sewn in and snap in, Bubblebubs, WK, Home made trifolds...

I unpicked the bamboo boosters from my sewn in d'lish and am planning on sewing some new ones.....maybe to snap in, maybe to hand sew back on, not sure yet.

I personally think that bamboo just is not strong enough to deal with some bubs wee...I had none of these issues with previous bubs.

I have taken to washing everyday, rinsing and I am not sure if has made a difference (as my nappies are all damaged already) but I hope that it helps with the issue as I like bamboo.

And I am sure Sue will help you figure it all out - IB customer serivce is ACE!.

I find bamboo is not as tough as hemp in general. I have hemp that is 4 years old but bamboo just does not last. Sue will sort you out though I am sure, sounds like it may have been an odd batch of fabric.

I heard from the IB ladies straight away
I only use IB's atm but with DS1 I used others & no probs. DS2 is 8 months so right in the middle of teething.
So the plan is to rinse straight away until teething is finished.

Thanks everyone.

I think there has been some really poorly made bamboo fleece available, lately.

I assume that most of the fleece available to local wahms and the offshore manufacturers is all coming from the same factories- I've been having trouble with the lighter weight fleece lately. A bit before that there were manufacturing errors in some of the heavy weight fleece.

I just received from Sue a bunch of replacement nappies and boosters. She replaced some for me about 3 months ago and since then I've been rinsing them religiously so I don't know why it's happened again! Hopefully I'll have more luck this time.
