Muslin Kit Overview

Our complete muslins newborn kit is a one click purchase for everything you'll need to get started using muslins as newborn nappies.

Muslins make excellent value nappies for the first few weeks, once they are outgrown the muslins will continue to be put to great use as burp cloths, mopping up spills, boosters and eventually mine got downgraded 15 years later to cleaning cloths!  

Muslins have a surprising degree of absorbency, are also extremely slim line and very shape versatile. That's why we so frequently recommend them as a newborn nappy.

 

Kit Contents

What does each kit component do?

  • Muslins provide the absorbency, they are the nappy part
  • Wraps provides the waterproofing.  The wrap is placed over the folded muslin nappy to keep the wetness inside.
  • Nappi Nippas secure the muslin - a modern form of nappy pin without the risk of scratching
  • Bambinex Paper Liners - This kit comes with one roll of 100 Bambinex disposable paper liners  which are the best for dealing with newborn poo.

We sell the Bambinex paper liners separately so you can buy more if you want to continue to use these. The other option are reusable fleece liners, these aren't in the kit but if you prefer this option they can be bought separately.

Sizing

70cm x70cm - The perfect size for folding into the Jo fold for newborns.

How do I use it?

Muslins when used as newborn nappies give you enough absorbency for 2-2.5 hours. This is the recommended change frequency for a newborn regardless if they are using disposable nappies or reusable. Muslins absorbency perfectly matches this change frequency and ensures baby is kept to the correct change schedule for their age.

When using muslins as newborn reusable nappies you first need to fold them. The very best fold for folded muslins is the Jo Fold.  The Jo Fold is incredibly easy to fold and is super adjustable to alter the length as baby grows. The Jo Fold also concentrates the absorbency in the middle where newborns either boys or girls need the most absorbency.

Once folded the MuslinZ muslins is held in place with a Nappi Nippa.  Nippas are very simple to use and after a few practices putting a nappy on a teddy bear you'll be an expert. No risk of scratching baby or poking them with a nappy pin.

I had a baby having very little experience of babies. I had never changed a nappy in my life. I was determined to use cloth and ordered this kit having no idea what to expect. I started using this on a two day old baby and no guidance other than the video.

And it's worked very well. I was initially a bit taken aback by the huge wad of fabric on my tiny baby, but i think he was too small to care at the time and soon grew into it. I still use the jo fold, which is very easy and does the job. The snappis are easy. Every time i change in front of an older person they see the snappi and have an ohhhhh ...moment when they realise technology has moved on from nappy pins. The motherease wraps are excellent - you need to be careful to make sure the cloth is well tucked in, especially at the back and especially at night but apart from that they are bombproof. I appreciated them more having tried disposables and totsbots - both of these are more leaky and unreliable than motherease.

One negative - i think the size xs rikki wrap is a bad product. It is so small the velcro looms huge and would rub against baby's tiny newborn tummy. I hated using it and ended up getting 2 more xs airflow wraps to supplement. I would personally have preferred all poppers and no velcro at all - velcro is harder to position, and gets caught all over things in the washing machine.

I’m absolutely delighted with this newborn nappy kit. The selection of wraps are lovely, cheerful and unisex, and includes a mixture of rikkis and airflows in XS and S. Having completed TNL questionnaire, this particular combination of nappies was recommended to me, so I was over the moon to see the kit with 20% off in reusable nappy week! I also love the fact it includes everything, so I didn’t need to think about it. Thank you to The Nappy Lady for putting such a thoughtful kit together and offering it at a brilliant price.

Baby hasn’t arrived yet so I can’t comment on containment or washing, but having used Motherease in the past, I’m confident about the quality and performance. I’d highly recommend to others.
