White or Natural Washable Nappy
One size cotton nappy fits birth to potty training
This is a nappy that we love, and that always sells well. It is well designed, durable, soft and will save you money!
The nappy is made by Motherease and is a one size washable nappy that will fit most children through to potty training. The nappy is made from 85% cotton with 15% polyester. (The polyester is found mainly in the base weave to stop shrinkage and to increase the nappy's life.) The nappy is also available in organic cotton and bamboo. (Please see separate pages on the Olivers website for details.)
The design of the nappy means you can use it with a tiny baby. To start with you use the nappy inside out, with the relevant poppers keeping it snug. As baby gets bigger, you turn the nappy over. The range of poppers mean the nappy can grow as your baby does. You will be able to get a perfect fit whatever your baby's size, and you will find that the nappy holds everything that your child puts into it!
The nappy is beautifully soft. There is no chaffing around baby's leg, as the leg openings and waist band are neatly finished with a soft binding
The Motherease cotton nappy is available in white or unbleached natural colour (off white beige). The nappy is machine washable and can be tumble dried.
The onesize nappy should be used with the following:
A nappy liner, also available from Olivers Babycare. This is placed inside the nappy to increase absorption. The liner has a stay dry top layer helping to keep moisture away from baby’s skin.
Nappy wrap or cover, also available from Olivers Babycare. This is a cover that goes on top of the cotton nappy. It will protect baby's clothing from any moisture.
The wraps come in a range of sizes and you will probably need 3 of each size. It is possible to use wraps from other companies making one size nappies, mixing and matching as you please.
If your baby is very wet at night it would be worth looking at the Tots Bots fleece wrap. This allows excess moisture to be dissipated into the atmosphere keeping baby dry.
The only possible exception to this nappy fitting right through to potty training is babies with very tall parents. These children may find the nappies too low on the hips towards the end, and they may need an alternative for night time use. When baby is at the chubbiest stage between 7 to 10 months, the nappy will give the appearance that it is not going to last, but as soon as baby becomes mobile they slim down and the nappy fits easily again.
