Honeyboys size selection

[kathok]

I was just wanting some advice on selecting sizes for CK Honeyboys. I am getting a 7 or 8 pack custom order in the near future and need some advice before I put in the order. I am just a bit unsure how the sizes of the different brands of AIO's I have already purchased, compare to the CK Honeyboys.

I would optimally like to have a few 'show off' AIO nappies for going out in each size (NB, Small and Med).
I already have: 1 x NB and 1 x small Bubblebubs AIO's, 1 x Small Lou Lou Honeyboy (seems quite large sizing), 1 x XS BumGenius AIO, 1 x Small Rumpster.

I am going to be getting 7 or 8 Honeyboys, any advice on size/number combinations that would be most cost effective for me?

Thanks Kathok

I say get Smalls/mediums i had a NB not CK though and it lasted 3weeks was a waste, but best get small least they last longer. Also BB newborn they just don't last unless you have small babies which i don't lol, but go smalls least you get a lot longer use out of them. I say get 3-4 NB just for the first 3-4 weeks if you wanted to show off hehe i did lol then get smalls.

Lucky you 8 HB very jealous hehe i have 2 and they really get worn lol, good luck

contact lesley she is lovely and im sure will be a big help

Nod... HB! do run larger sizes (somewhat similar to Bubblebubs) my chubby bubba is best suited to medium long at approx 10.5kg and just shy of 10mths. I never owned a NB HB! however I had NB Raphaels and found they lasted and were definitely worth the money.

Looking back I'd probably stick with the raphaels/terries/prefolds in NB stage, a small variety for the small stage and then stock up on medium or medium long as they're the ones that will get the most use... but that's JMHO!

I think mediums fit forever dont' they? They are quite large around the waist measurements, so I'd talk to Lesley and if necessary she may be able to add a bit of touchtape so you can cross the tabs over at the waist

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh how do you get a custom 8 pack???????????

8 custom HBs would be my dream come true

I would go a few small and the rest medium.....My 2 year olds still wear their mediums with heaps of room for growth and the mediums fit pretty early on too

Just email Lesley, there is a link from the CK website about "heavenly packs" (not sure if they are really custom though, I'm just assuming).

There is a fairly long wait for bulk packs though, but this doesn't really worry me as I am not due till July.

I just thought this might be the best way for me to finally get some CK honeyboys. Everybody raves about them. They don't seem to come up very often and I don't have broadband to hyena them anyway. Someone also said that the NB ones are few and far between.

I have personally found AIOs to be better for older bubs rather than newborns, mainly because there are so many more nappy changes for a newborn, I preferred a fitted with a cover I could reuse a few times.

I've found Medium to be a good size. Isabel is now 16 months old and she still has a lot of growing room in them. I don't know if she will ever fit into a large!

I agree Ali
