BG 4.0 NB inserts, how to use?

LoveLo2010

So I prepped my NB stash yesterday (thank you for the help ladies) and I washed all the BG 4.0 NB microfiber inserts I had and was wondering how you all use them.

Since the BG's arent going to fit for quite a while do you use them under a prefold for more absorbency, or by themselves in a cover? I thought the microfiber wasnt suppose to touch the skin so does it have a non micro side, or do I use a fleece liner? Or just not use them until I use my BG's haha

I didn't use mine until she could fit in the BGs.

 You're correct, microfiber shouldn't touch skin.

4.0 MF inserts should only be used inside the pockets, which didn't fit my girls until about 10 lbs, which was 9 weeks for us. At first when we switched from NB AIOs to the OS pockets, I just used the NB insert, but by 3 months, they pee enough that I switched to the bigger inserts and now the NB inserts just get used occasionally as doublers, though I prefer hemp inserts as doublers.

You should only use them in pockets, so wait until your LO can fit into the BGs.  

They started fitting DD around 12lbs or 6ish weeks old.  I initially only used the newborn (smaller) insert, but then quickly moved to using the OS insert instead.  These days we just use hemp and bamboo inserts in our pockets.

Thanks ladies! I will move them over with my BGs to make space in the changing table
