Default How to put a terry on a NB

I know I dont personally have a NB but its driving me a little nuts. I bought flats for Carolyn and they just look terrible on Lily, they are past her knees and elevate her something shocking. What are we doing wrong???

When mine were new I just folded it in a triangle and then a triangle again, lay them in it and put the side that has 2 layers to it (if that makes sense) the middle bit up first then the side with 2 layer seperated it and put one flap over, then th other side with 1 layer, then the other layer ofthe first sid. IYGWIM????

If the leg bits came too far down their thighs I just tucked them in.

I always used this one, after finally discovering there were others folds than the old kite fold.

You can adjust it to fit.

I found the butterfly fold the best and used it from newborn until my DS outgrew it

I used to use the triangle, kite and butterfly. And yes they looked huge on my babies when they were new!

I used the triangle and then quickly graduated to the Jo Fold which we used from week 2 until 2 years old. The Jo fold can be found on the nappy lady site.

I have used the Jo fold since Alastair was newborn and still use it now on the occasions we use flats. It's very adjustable.
