Bubblebubs BamBam Newborns are our smallest newborn nappy that fits from 2kg. The nappy is silky smooth and ultra soft, we fell in love with this nappy the minute we saw it. The nappy is very adaptable so you can get the perfect fit on a tiny newborn.

BamBams have been one of my favourite newborn nappies. After my little girl was born I used these without the trifold for a slimmer nappy for the first two weeks, during this time she had to be changed so often that absorbency really wasn’t needed anyway. I folded the front down to fit the nappy neatly under the umbilical cord, this way we got a nicer fit with most of our wraps too. Around 2 weeks I’ve added in the trifold for more absorbency, it’s still a fairly slim nappy due to the narrow gusset, it doesn’t seem bulky at all. A lovely soft nappy, great that you can have the trifold in or out, with the front folding down for an even smaller fit this nappy is very customisable. It’s a huge benefit that it can be tumble dried on low, can be a life saver in the early days when they go through lots of nappies each day. I still love this nappy and my little girl is 4 weeks old now. I would recommend this nappy for any expectant parent, it’s bomb proof with a good wrap over the top and copes well with longer naps too.

This would work well day or night but I liked it best for a reliable, absorbent option for baby at night or a nap.Love a two part system for containment/affordability, and I like that this option fastens with a nippa as there's no need to worry about velcro losing it's stick or finding the correct popper settings while half asleep in the middle of the night!

I was recommended the Bubblebubs BIG nappies by The Nappy Lady for a birth-to-potty system, so when my baby arrived at 37 weeks and 5lb10 I ordered a few Bambams to see us through until she was bigger. They’re super easy to use, and we’ve had no leaks. I use Blueberry Capri and Motherease Airflow wraps and both have worked well, though I prefer the Capri for a trimmer fit, especially when using the booster. In the daytime the nappies are absorbent enough alone, for night I add the booster. I’ve also used the boosters in a folded muslin or alone with the Capri wraps as a pocket system when I’ve run out of nappies, and they work fab! Drying time is not as bad as I expected – I wash daily, hanging on a rack next to a radiator which is on morning and evening, and they’re usually dry in 12–15 hours. We’re in a hard water area so they aren’t as velvety soft as when new, but still much softer than our towels are!Really happy with these nappies; they make using cloth really easy!

I bought a few of these because I assumed my second baby would be as teensy as my first. I was wrong! My new baby, although not huge is definitely average sized, but this nap still fits beautifully. He's now 10lbs at almost 2 months and I'm pretty sure I'll get at least another month out of the nap. The only learning curve was fastening the nappi nippa once I started using the booster, but after a few goes it was easy. I would definitely recommend this nap if you're looking for a newborn nap.

Slow to dry yet did not absorb much, felt soft but my baby cried as soon as they went on, so seemed uncomfortable. Not really many redeeming factors.

Really lovely nappies for newborns, easy to put on and really soft even after a wash. My husband also said these are his faves because of how easy they are. I use these with wool wraps and motherease airflow wraps.

These are working really well for us paired with the Motherease airflow and rikki wraps in the small and extra small sizes. Used with a nappi nippa clip.Only down side is they are so absorbent they take a while to dry.Great product, easy wash. Rinse and then cotton cycle.

These are lovely soft nappies. Baby has now arrived and fits a 8.5lb baby. I purchased the newborn size. It looks like it will fit for a bit longer too. Really pleased with it.
