Mum's of black/white mixed or similar babies, what moisturiser/skin care are you using for them?

I use Oilatum which works well for my LO but I moisturise her twice a day, plus coconut once a day on skin and scalp. Just wondering if she maybe needs a thicker cream, more similar to what I use and then she wouldn't dry out as quickly and could just moisturise once per day. Dunno if it matters but so far (9 mont...

Miosolo reusable nappy leaks!

Good grief. So we've been using Bambino Miosolo nappies but just can't seem to work out the magic of them not fitting right and avoiding wee leaks around the legs. It's not the end of the world but sure is a pain to either change them every hour or change outfits each time (neither being practical). Does anyone have...
