Features of the FunkyMates Hemp/Organic Cotton Nappies
FunkyMates are an Australian Infant Nappy product that is making nappy use easier for parents alike. All FunkyMates products are handmade by myself. Now available with elastic in both back & legs & using Hemp/Organic Cotton French Terry!!!
FunkyMates come in a variety of sizes (some prints may only be available in certain sizes):
- Extra small (2-4.5kgs) - this size is more suited for the Premmie babies and only available via special order
- Small (3.5-9kgs)
- Medium (8-13kgs)
- Large (12-16kgs)
- Extra Large (15-28kgs)
The size you will need will vary from baby to baby depending on what weight he or she is. Any questions about sizing please ask. If your baby is 9kgs I would recommend purchasing the Medium so you will get more wear out of the Nappy.
What are the Qualities of all or Products?
What are FunkyMates Hemp/ Organic Cotton French Terry Nappies made from?:
FunkyMates Nappies are handmade in Australia & made from 55% Hemp/45% Organic Cotton French Terry, cotton used to sew and overlock the Nappies, elastic and Hook & Loop Fasteners (Velcro).
Each may vary slightly in size as they are individually cut out & sewn. FunkyMates have layers sewn into the nappy which acts like an internal pad which helps to keep baby dry. The inside pad is made from 6 pieces of absorbent Hemp/Organic Cotton French Terry, which including the 2 pieces on the outside a total of 8 pieces.
FYI - Hemp/Organic Cotton French Terry is 55% hemp 45% organic cotton French Terry is a knit fabric (it has a bit of stretch). Hemp is a lot trimmer & is far more absorbent than cotton & it's also naturally anti bacterial & anti fungal. Due to the amount of layers in this type of FunkyMates Nappy it does take a few days to dry on the line. This sort of material does have a tenacy to "smell", we have been told that some babies wee makes this so - some babies attract the smell others don't. Unfortunatley the only test is to trial one.
When do I need to change the FunkyMate?:
This does depend on your routine and like disposables babies don't sit in the same Nappy for the whole day! For example my youngest son who has been the trail subject is happy in his FunkyMates AIO for the period of anywhere between 2-4 hours. This also depends on what he has been doing during the day.
FYI - During the Evenings if you have a heavier wetter you may have to use a Cover. This is something we have found out with Toby. How we got around it? Yes it was frustrating - a plastic cover with 3 Nappy Boosters making sure that the cover is over the Nappy & it does the trick, he is wet on the inside but dry on the outside. Yes you can use a woollen cover - apparently they work - I am currently knitting one up as we speak but may get some outside help with it & hey we may market them as well. Oliver our eldest however was a light wetter & slept from 7pm until 6am without a change. Proving once again each baby is different!
Do I need a Cover:
No not with the FunkyMates AIO.
Why does FunkyMates have two sorts of Nappies?
The main reason is that it gives our customers the choice of which Nappy they wish to use. Some people simply don't like the idea of not having a cover. By having two types of Nappies we are able to give our customers the freedom of choice.
All FunkyMates Products can be purchased individually or as a bulk order. We also have generous Lay-By terms available.
AdultMate enquiries are to be emailed to us via the Contact Us icon, unfortunately due to the size of the AdultMate the AIO Hemp/Organic Cotton French Terry option isn't available.
