Polar Fleece???  

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
I am getting ready to have my 4th baby. When I give birth my youngest will be 18 months. I have never CD and need as much help as possible. This being said when you talk about fleece are you talking about the fleece you can get at wal-mart or JoAnns or is there a specific kind of fleece? I am thinking I want to go with the AIO and I plan to make my own(to cheep to buy a bunch for two kids) And I have a 2 1/2 year old girl that is potty training that I sure could use training pant Ideas. And one other thing,(as if I needed more) my 6 year old goes into deep sleep and can't wake to go to the bathroom(runs in my family) I have to buy Goodnights because he soaks through pull-ups. These are quite costly. Any ideas for making him somthing! HELP!!!!!!

Joann"s Fleece

I have used Joann's fleece for covers before but I doubled it up. I works just fine-maybe not as an overnight diaper because if the diaper inside gets really soaked there will be compression wicking because it is not truely waterproof-just water resistant. It does get kind of pilly looking too but I don't really mind that. The only thing I really don't like about the fleece is that after you have a double layer of it it is really bulky. I know alot of people use malden mills fleece and that is supposed to be superior to the walmart/joann variety and maybe you won't need too layers (have to order it online though). Joann's has really good sales on fleece though! I have seen patterns around for training pants so you can definately make something. Maybe use some microfiber in them to really add super absorbancy without as much bulk.
