Eco by Naty Baby Nappies

I started using these because I wanted a more environmentally friendly nappy for my bub. They are good for a few hours but they couldnt last overnight like the other popular brand nappies. My bub wet through the nappy during the night.

On my second batch of eco by naty nappies. Bought them because they’re completely biodegradable and better for environment. Initially I was quite concerned about whether the nappy would last as the sticky tabs didn’t seem that adhesive and the back of nappy isn’t elastic, but realised you have to pull the tabs tightly and make sure they overlap when sticking it down to nappy. This has helped prevent leaks from the back of nappy from my experience. I haven’t tried these for nighttime as I’m a bit worried they won’t hold for the whole night. I use the non eco nappies for nighttime when she sleeps longer as I know they won’t leak as they can hold more. Overall I’m happy with them and will continue using for daytime

The plastic free aspect of these nappies encouraged me to purchase them prior to my baby’s arrival. My husband is key nappy changer and hates them compared to the Huggies in hospital. While they don’t have a wetness indicator and the tabs aren’t very sticky I was willing to over look these aspects in favour of the good feel aspect of putting my baby in something which may be better for the environment and his body. Yet the price and difficulty in locally purchasing the newborn size has led me to stop using them. Huggies now in our home

I got caught at Woollies needing some disposable nappies to complement my MCNs; since Woolies doesn’t stock Tooshies, I thought I’d give Naty Eco a try. It performs well in general, although I’ve had a couple of leaks.

Pros

Performance. Absorbs well, although I find I have to change it about as frequently as a standard (not night) cloth nappy to prevent leaks.

Eco friendly. Made of plant based plastics and wood pulp (although not entirely). Note that while many of its components will break down, it’s not 100% biodégradable or compostable; no disposable nappies are at this stage.

Breathable and soft

I tried the size 2, 4-9kg for my 3 month old (6kg) and they were a very big fit, the tabs are not super sticky either. They leaked straight up the back each time, once within a minute of putting a clean nappy.
They feel really nice but just didn't work for us.

As the company doesn't provide any real customer service, ie. email or phone, their product features and claims become questionable. I tried to reach out to them because i nearly had to throw out an entire package of nappies because the strap was not sticking properly, and the nappy fell off just after minutes.

I don't usually write reviews (but do check a lot) and found that I need to write something to give these Eco nappies justice as I saw so many bad reviews. They are super Eco-friendly you can tell they are almost just made of paper, that's why they don't tend to hold lots of liquid very well overtime. I mean, they are absorbent enough, but if you bub did a massive wee (or a couple of big ones) and you left it in there for a bit too long, then the outer "paper" layer won't be able to hold up and they get saggy and will leak if you bub do another...

It is a shame that the size 4 and 5 Naty nappy can not hold all the urine over night...
we have been using Naty since baby was born. To be honest, I definitely will give 5 starts for size 0 to size 3. It is quite eco friendly compare to other commercial nappy brands. And it is very comfortable for baby's bottom. we have used other similar brand, but Naty is the only once give enough comfort for baby.
If Naty will improve this part, I will switch back for sure!!
(Maybe it depends on each individual case, my boy always drinks a lot of liquid.. so he urinate a lot over night..)

THE GOOD: Love the ideology behind them, love the neutral pattern (I hate the characters we find on the girl specific nappies in other brands), love the fact there's no chemicals, and LOVE the fact that poo explosions are caught in these so well! Our bub is only 3rd percentile, so all the other nappies in her size (size 2) are 4-8kg whereas Naty Eco nappies come in better size options and we can get them in 3-6kg. Because of this, they fit her little legs better and have been awesome at capturing the poop explosions as they're tighter.

THE B...

These nappies are great for the environment and for our babies, as they are eco friendly. Love the thought the company has put into making their products.

Unfortunately as much as we love to support for eco friendly products, these nappies does not work for our little one.

I have been using another well known brand since my child was a baby, however we decided to switch to a more environment friendly nappies as soon as we saw Naty.

Upon using the first few nappies, I noticed each nappy soaked up so quickly from possibly a single pee. ...
