Angry Keeps taking his nappy off!

My little man (18 months) keeps taking of his nappy

He is wearing a Itti Bitti with snaps he took of in to the bedroom and came back out with it in his mouth (he loves to chew on anything at the moment he is teething) so I have put it back on him but backwards this time. This did work for a little while but he has worked out how to take it off

Does anyone else have a little devil like this, so of what MCN do you use?

I think they all go through that stage The only thing my little man can't take off is an Auriel
That said - it is a phase and a great excuse to buy or knit woolies for over the top!

There is an online MCN store that sells bands that you put around the top of the nappy (like a little belly band when you're pregnant) so the little munchkins can't undo the nappies...
Can't for the life of me think of the store...
Will be back if I can find it in my favourites....
ETA: Woolies is a great idea Donna!
I'll have to use that excuse to buy more when Pickle starts going through this stage! LOL!

yes they do. its a woolen cover that you pull up like pants (you can also get longies /pants too) and best if lanolised too (using somthing like lasinoh) if you have a knitter that you know or knit youself or even crochet there are heaps of free patterns about.
they have the added advantage that generally you dont need to wash them more than say 2 - 3 weeks ( i have been known to go lots longer especially in winter), just air them out between wears at night and when they are a bit whiffy if you use them during the day over many changes. and you can use them over an aio or fitted or pocket
