Disappointed w/ wool?...updated again on post 25

[jee_jee]

so far youve gotten really great support and advice, I just wanted to add that you dont need to go out and buy a special shaver, especially if youre not sure you'll stick with wool. If you have a regular razor, like a bic or something, than you can just run it softly across the wool and watch the pills come right off. it worked wonders for me untill I got an electric shaver. HTH

DD wore the skirty tonight to a baby shower, and it didn't seem to bother her at all. Everyone loved it, too! I (she) got so many compliments on her cuteness!

I do have another question after using the wool tonight. I used KL2 w/ a supersoaker, then the wool cover. The inside layer of the wool was damp (barely) from being against the damp KL. Do I need to let the wool dry in between diapers? Like use another cover while the wool dries, then put the wool back on at the next diaper change?

Yes, you should give it a chance to dry before reusing. I personally wouldn't use the wool again right away if it is damp/wet.

I usually let my wool air out in between diapers! But I also have a super big stash! LOL I'm not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing!

I agree with PP.You may want to try something more absorbent too.KL's aren't very good after the NB stage or they weren't for us

hmmm... I've heard that quite often. I bought another brand of fitted off FSOT, I'm just to get it in the mail. I've also thought about trying thirsties b/c I've read lots of good things about them. And I ordered a few fitteds in the co-op that just closed, too.

What kind do you use under your wool?
