Do you need to buy a newborn size of nappies or can you skip straight to OSFM?
This is a common question. OSFM nappies will fit from about 3.5kg, but they can be bulkier on little babies than a specific newborn size. I generally recommend to buy some newborns and supplement with your OSFM nappies.
What are the newborn options?
All-In-One: The easiest option. This nappy has no assembly, dries fast and has velcro closure. It's a one piece nappy, and very easy to put on bub. It also has double gussets which are fabulous for newborns. The only drawback is that once the nappy is used you need to wash the whole thing. This can be a more expensive investment, but it's the most convenient and easiest nappy. PLEASE NOTE: This nappy was previously branded Peekaboo but is now a Baby Bare product. It no longer comes in a petite wet bag - mini bags are available to purchase separately.
Fitted Nappy: DISCONTINUED
Cover and Inserts: The most economical system. You can reuse the covers with clean inserts. It requires some assembly with pad folding the trifold insert and putting them in the cover.
Grab one of our newborn trial packs and try all these options and decide what you love.
This video is a great guide to the different cloth nappies we offer for newborns.
I’ve ordered a couple of parcels from Baby Beare, mostly their trifold inserts, but I have purchased a couple of their shell covers for their honey wrap nappies and I’m very impressed with the quality and durability of these items. While I’ve only had the one baby and we’ve only really just started our cloth nappy journey, Baby Beare’s products have yk be a top contender for price (especially with their sales) and all the aforementioned points. Thanks Baby Beare, I’d order again!
We love these nappies. The best reusable nappies out of all the ones we've tried. Was gifted one at our shower and had to buy more after using it. Much better absorption and fit for my bubs than other brands. I love the flexibility to snap in different inserts.
I bought these to go with flats after often having leaks with my previous covers.
The double gusset allows for a bigger and better fit over my flats and I've never had a leak with them. They dry super fast and I like that I can fasten the waist a little loosely (to ensure bubs tummy is comfy) and they still do a perfect job. I wish I'd had these with my first baby.
Would definitely recommend!
I bought another for my third bub for Christmas. The others have lasted two children and are still good but I couldn't pass up the print.
I love these playmats so much that I have 2 and now my kiddies are no longer babies I often use them as picnic rugs. The people I gifted the last one I bought to loved it as well
