I've posted this on my birth month board too, but I'm looking for ON
solutions. I've been reading past posts about hemp inserts and I must say, I am more confused now than I was before! My son is starting to sleep through the night and he SOAKED
my mattress one night ,and his bassinet the next. I use gDiapers
during the day, but will probably have to start adding a second insert
in the day (boo hiss, I love how trim they are!) Does anyone use hemp
only, against the skin? Can I even do that?
I just picked up a BG4.0 to try for overnights, but I'm not sure I like the inserts that it came with. They're so STICKY! They feel gross on my fingers. Of course, I'm just now washing it the required times, so I'll see how it feels when its done. I only picked up one because I don't want to spend a lot of money on something that won't work. I am looking at this for my ON diapers, maybe. Joey-Bunz Premium Hemp or Little Weeds hemp? DS is only 8 wks old Monday, but 12+ lbs. What ever I get, I would love to use exclusively during the day in my gDiapers (if possible, I know nothing about hemp!) and then I'll double it with my existing cotton/mf g inserts.
Thoughts? Advice? Thank you all for the help!
Re: Let's talk Hemp (again)
Like the pp mentioned hemp absorbs the slowest of all the fibres. The only hemp insert that I will use on it's own are my Thirsties hemp prefolds. A size 1 would work well for your LO. I used to use a Hemp Babies Little Weeds under a newborn BG insert

Generally, hemp absorbs slower, but can hold a lot more. Since it's a natural fiber it can go right against baby's skin. I prefer to use it as a doubler with my pocket diapers. I'll do a MF on top because it absorbs quickly, and a hemp beneath it. I al
