Default Re: Question about snaps

with fairly average proportioned bree i could go symetrical or very similar.
with kane he needs large ss nappies - leg is on biggest setting for his massive thighs and usually waist on tightest - it works great and looks fine
front closing nappies wont work well on him atm - i just cant get a good enough fit to prevent bf poo blowouts from the top

Yep, I do that too.

I am SO glad I'm not the only symmetry freak!!! Sometimes I have to put the snapped nappies aside and use velcro for a while lol. I have invented a new nappy fastening system in my head that solves the probs of both velcro and snaps but not sure if it would work in real life....lol
