Flip Nappies: FAQ's!
After spending an entire day doing almost everything imaginable with a Flip nappy (handling, playing with, pulling, sizing), I've put together some answers to FAQ's. If there's anything here that I haven't covered drop an email to info@babame.com and I'll soon clear that up!
Some Flip Options
There are 3 inserts compatible with the Flip system: Stay Dry, Organic and Disposable.
You can buy the Flip nappy with either a Stay Dry insert (£13.95) or an Organic insert (£15.95) or alternatively you can buy the Flip cover individually (£10.95) and then purchase the inserts separately.
The Stay Dry Insert retails at £3.95 whilst the Organic Insert is £5.95.
Flip Disposable Inserts are only £3.95 for a pack of 18!
Sizing: fold the insert down to the size you require - small, medium or large
Content:
Stay-Dry Insert Stay-Dry Layer: %100 polyester
1) Adjust the one size cover to the size you require. This is really easy, just use the snaps - the sizing is similar to that of the bumGenius One Size however some customers claim that Flip offers a better fit!
2) Pick your insert - Flip Stay Dry, Flip Organic or Flip Disposable - simply tuck the insert in under the contour flaps at each end. No need to fuss, the generous room makes it really easy to just pop the insert in.
3) Put on baby and snap to close.
Flip Inserts: What's what?
Flip Stay Dry Inserts are based on the reliable stay dry insert provided with the bumGenius One Size. The principal is quite the same, they are super absorbent and help to keep your baby dry all day. Made from three layers of microfiber and topped with a soft touch suede, the Flip Stay Dry Insert is efficient and reliable.Sizing: fold the insert down to the size you require - small, medium or large
Content:
Stay-Dry Insert Stay-Dry Layer: %100 polyester
Stay-Dry Insert Absorbent Layer: %80 polyester, 20% polyamide
Flip Organic Inserts are super soft, ultra-absorbent and made from four layers of 100% Oeko-Tex® certified organic cotton. When folded this organic cotton pre-fold has an impressive 12 layers for any time you need maximum absorbency.
To adjust the size of the pre-fold simply fold one way for small and the other for medium/large.

The mums in our office think that they'll be the perfect solution for travel, day care or for mums who want an eco-friendlier option without the hassle of washing. Flip Disposable Inserts are upto 97% biodegradable, dye free, fragrance free and the only disposable insert that has achieved Oeko-Tex certification. RRP: £3.99 for a pack of 18, available now.

What do mums say?
We've had the ladies in our office trial the Flip nappy and the feedback has been excellent. Eliza (mum of Maria 2) loves the versatility Flip offers, especially since Maria is in day care. She likes to use Flip along with the bumGenius All In One and claims that it is easy to use, slim fitting and convenient.
"I love that I don't have to wash the cover after every use and removing the Inserts is so easy. I love Flip Organic Inserts, they are super soft and highly absorbent - perfect for night time."
Julie, mum of Josh (1) is an avid Flip user! As a busy mum handling work and home she finds Flip ultra flexible - even for her hectic schedule. "Flip is a dream come true. I love reusable nappies but sometimes the washing can be a put off - Flip is definitely the compromise I've been looking for! I wash less and because it's one-size I don't have to stock up on different sizes."
The feedback so far has been excellent for Flip. We'd love to hear what you think so get in touch!
