Amazing wraps, use every night, never any issues. Even used over disposables on holidays and they saved us many times! Delivery is quick. Make more designs please!!
Good size, lovely quality of fabric and beautiful print. Also conveniently doubled as an emergency mat for my baby to lie on as it's about the same dimensions as a changing mat!
I have used pocket nappies since birth but found they didn’t work for us overnight so used disposables at night. Tried the Bayrli hemp fitted nappy with Disana cover and they are amazing! I lanolised the Disana cover using leftover Lansinoh and haven’t had any leaks. The cover is so soft and easy to put on. It’s super easy to hand wash and only needs washing every fortnight. I wish I’d got them sooner!
