Nappy Overview

B.I.G by Bubblebubs nappy is the large birth to potty version which is just the same as theirr best selling newborn BAMBAMS nappy. The BIG Bubblebubs nappy is very slim and offers a versatile fit with a loose separate booster and nappi nippa fastening. The B.I.G is a generous length nappy making it suitable for tall children.  With the wide cross over tabs it's also suitable for chunky monkeys as well slender babies.

Sizing

The B.I.G Bubblebubs fits from 8-35lbss but as with any birth to potty nappy fits best from 12lbs+.   The loose booster which comes with the nappy can be removed when baby is at the bottom of the weight range and doesn't need this extra absorbency. By removing the booster the nappy becomes slimmer.
 

How do I use it?

The BIG Bubblebubs is fasten free which means it doesn't come with poppers or velcro instead it's fastened using a nappi nippa (purchased separately).  The tabs can be crossed over while baby is at the bottom of the weight range and has a narrower waist. The front can also be folded down to make the nappy shorter.  There is no restriction on how much or how little you can fold the nappy down so you can make it fit exactly as your baby needs.

Nappy Fabric

The BIG is made of bamboo fabric and is incredibly soft and silky. We have found that over time in hard water areas the BIG can be tricky to  secure with a nappi nippas as the fabric looses it's silkiness. If you live in a hard water area then this might not be the best choice for you.  BIGs can be tumbledried on low and this does help keep the fabric softer.

Bubblebubs Care Guide

  • Soak your new nappies to increase absorbancy. It can take 6 washes to get to maximum absorbancy.
  • Remove solids and rinse in hot water. You can pretreat stains if desired. Night nappies must be thoroughly rinsed in hot water before dry pailing.
  • Wash nappies every other day.
  • Prewash on a short cycle. Use half dose of detergent for heavily soiled nappies.
  • Then wash using the longest cyle, up to 60 degrees but no more than 800 rpm spin. 
  • No harsh stain removers or bleach. They may cause irritation and can damage the waterproof membrane
  • No fabric softeners. They will reduce absorbency.
  • Ideally line dry or tumble dry on cool although this can effect the longevity of your product.

I loved them but they quickly wore out
Rating:
28 May 2022  | 

I loved these nappies initially. They were easy to fasten and adjust to get a good fit. Absorbent but not too bulky. I like that they are made from natural fibres and bamboo is sustainable.

But after 8 months of use, we discovered threadbare sections, especially around the elastics. These later developed into holes and the nappies became unusable.

We follow a good wash routine, as advised by the manufacturer Bubblebubs, with a daily prewash and main wash every 2 days. The nappies are mainly line dried or on an airer inside in bad weather. I'm at a loss why these nappies haven't lasted when our Easy Peasy Bumbles and Totbots Bamboozle Stretchies are still going strong. It's very disappointing.

Love these nappies!
We found if you fold the front down we could actually get a really good fit on our slim little lady from 8lb.
They are great at night despite her being a heavy wetter.
They have stayed fluffy even with living in a hard water area.

Great but poppers/velcro would be better
Rating:
12 November 2021  | 

Been using these full time for several months now. Really love them and they are so absorbent and nice and slim.
The only problem is that now our nappy nippas are starting to not grip the fabric properly, so they keep loosening when you try to do it up. I think that just after being washed so many times (and possibly because we put them in the drier for 30mins each time to fluff them up) they are less fluffy than when we bought them and that's why the nappy nippas don't grip? I've bought some poppers that I'm going to attach myself, but just thought it was interesting to share what happened after using them constantly for 4 months. I really hope they last, I want to use them for a long time to come!

Maybe better than Bambams
Rating:
29 September 2021  | 

I had Bambams for my firstborn, was delighted to find they made them BIG too when looking for no.2. I have heavy wetters and mushy poopers into toddlerhood - these have already saved so many leaks I love them! I find poppers just as fiddly as nappy nippas so actually think sizewise these are more versatile fitting my 4 mo old rather tall (just fold over the front flap once after fastening) and 22 mo old normal sized toddler.
Inserts are fine, I halved them as I found them rather bulky. Toddler has one folded double at the front, babys is folded lenghtwise. Honestly the best system I own together with double gussetted (is that a word?) wrap (Thirsties fit my little ones best, blueberry capri ok too)

Absolutely brilliant nappy

I was recommended this by TNL, it fits my slim baby really well. It isn’t bulky like most nappies on her so she has really good movement still. Very absorbent and the containment is excellent. Even my partner who was reluctant to use cloth is impressed as we’ve had no leaks compared to using disposables! We’d definitely recommend them too.

Lovely and soft nappy, fits well, does it leave any elastic marks on baby’s chubby thighs. Washes well. Would need a bit more absorption, but a booster helps with this.

soft and slim

I’ve had my eye on these for ages and am not disappointed. They’re incredibly soft and fluffy, even after several washes in our very hard water. It’s easy to get a good fit because of the nippa fastening and the length can be easily adjusted by folding the top of the nappy down. A rectangular insert can be folded where needed and doesn’t add too much bulk.

Good if you like using nippa nappas
Rating:
22 May 2021  | 

Recommended by nappy lady as I asked for something that is not too bulky and wouldn’t leak. Bought to try out and advised motherease airflow wrap over it. Reliable nappy without leaks of used with motherease airflow. My baby is small for her age at 9 months and just outgrown muslinz and newborn wraps and so we use this and medium airflow wrap. Good fit, no leaks, slimmer than Terrys which is bulky on her as she is small and short. Have even used as night time nappy with fleece liner. Only thing is that OH not keen on nippa nappas so we have not bought any more. Instead found motherease sandys with motherease airflow wrap easier to pit on as she’s is wriggling around a bit now when changing her at this age. Does take a while to dry but very soft and comes with a booster unlike the sandys which you need to buy separate. Overall great if you are happy using nippa nappas and don’t mind the slow drying.

I love everything about this nappy: soft, absorbent and perfect to fit with a nappi nippa. Containment has been great too, but that's influenced by the choice of warp and booster. We use it primarily as a nighttime nappy.

Lovely and soft, the elasticated back and leg seams sit well on my baby without leaving any marks so no unnecessary pressure. Contains all the wee without any fuss. I found the nappi nippa a little difficult for the first handful for attempts but picked it up in no time - even as a total novice!

It works great for my little 13 pounds girl. I love that there is no velcro, its not bulky and it is fine for 12 hours for my 4 months old. I use the bambino mio cover and it works fine with it.

These are the nappies that were recommended in the questionnaire before my LO was born, and I can't believe I waited until she was 5 months old to try them! Beautifully soft, slim and so easy to get them fitting perfectly with the nippa. The cover has leaked a couple of times at the front so I will experiment with the fold to get a better containment.

We bought 2 of these to go in nappies over night. We use them with another brand of booster and they are fantastic. Best if you curl in the edges as keeps everything contained! We'll be getting more soon. They fit really nicely and feel lovely and soft.

I love how soft these nappies are, they are also really absorbent. The nippa fastening means they are very comfortable for my chunky 11 month old and they’re very generously sized. I’ll be buying some more soon!

We have been using the bubblebubs on our newborn for a week now and I can’t rate them highly enough.

Wonderfully soft, super absorbent and our baby Is definitely a lot more settled in these compared to when he wears disposables. Have washed them a number of times now and the stains have come out every time.

The only drawback is how bulky they make his tiny little body. Looking forward to when they are back in stock so we can bolster our supply of them.

Big Bamboo fan!

If you’re looking for an AIT nappy system these are great! We use them for day and night time (with added boosters) and have never had any leaks. No problems with skin irritation. They are easy to wash as well and just need an extra rinse cycle before the main wash if there’s staining and the big bonus is that being bamboo, they come out super soft and fluffy every time, all ready to cushion your little baby’s bottom. Although they take longer to dry than cotton, the extra absorbency, softness and slimness of these versatile nappies is worth it in our opinion.

Supper absorbent but fiddly to put on. Much prefer popper fastened equivalent, eg Anavey, that doesn’t require a nappy nipper to fasten.

These were recommended by TNL as new to cloth. I have been using for 4 weeks with newborn and really impressed at performance. Baby weighed 8lbs so have folded over and fits fine. Dries well on the line and so far no accidents. Would recommend.

Lovely nappy for slim baby
Rating:
07 February 2020  | 

After trialing a few different types of nappy we chose these for our very slim baby as we had no leaks (used with a Motherease Airflow wrap). Our daughter was about 5 kg when we started using them and they fit really well. I don’t think they will last to the upper end of the states weight range though.

They’re beautifully soft and really easy to put on; you soon get used to using a nappy nippa and not having Velcro or poppers means you have much more freedom with sizing.

The main nappy takes quite a while to dry but it isn’t too bad.

Great nappies, so soft and slim. Rated a 4 mostly because these won't last my 6m old anywhere near their suggested weight limit.

Good for daytime
Rating:

These nappies are really soft and stay soft after many washes compared to some other brands. They’re long which is great and should last my baby a while. I like them because they’re not too bulky compared to others so are better for the day, however this is only when used without the booster. With the booster they are very bulky. I’m getting away with 2-3 hours wear currently without the booster (he’s 4 months), but I imagine as my baby grows bigger the booster will be a must. I’ve had a few wee leaks using the motherease airflow wrap which I’ve put down to needing the legs done up tighter on these than when using bamboozles. They’ve contained breastmilk poo well. I’d recommend these if you prefer less bulk and don’t mind changing regularly.

Soft and easy but not very absorbent

Its so soft and fluffy against baby's skin I love it. But even with the extra insert unfortunately it's just not absorbent enough. Changing time would around 1.5 hours max. If I add another insert it gets too bulky.

I have been trying other nappies, as the Motherease Sandy's have been unavailable. And this is definitely one of my favourites. The bamboo is really soft it is a good fit on my 4 month old, although I think it will go much bigger. Also good containment and a good sized liner. I just wish they did a poppered version. Would recommend.
