MCN Review - trying out the new look EzyPeezies

Not my usual model and in my opinion one of the ugliest dolls
that live in our house but Miss Pie certainly adores her (as you
can see by the state of her!) Luckily tho - this model is not as
wriggly as my normal one and much easier to photograph ;)

In December just before Xmas a parcel landed on my doorstep (and it wasn't the present I'd ordered my brother and was desperately waiting for - big sister fail!) BUT it was a pretty awesome little parcel all the same. I put it to one side so after xmas I could take some pics and put it to use and tell you all how I found it.

What came in my parcel :

One EzyPeezie nappy shell

With matching nappy bag (note the
handle has a snap on it - perfect for
clipping on a pram, in a bag or on
a change table etc.)

2 x charcoal bamboo blended inserts
specially shaped to fit the EzyPeezie MCN.

Now I know its not that big of a deal how the nappy arrives but I do love it when a nappy comes in its own little wet bag :-) I'm a cloth lady myself so I generally steal the little bags for my own use but there is just something so cute about anything smaller than normal AND I love that the packaging has a purpose and it re-useable just like the product. Another handy use for these will be when toilet training takes full swing and we have to venture out into the big bad world nappy free with spare undies tucked away in my handbag. Also great way to transport wet cloth wipes. Or you could just use it the way its intended - to fit the nappy in when it has been used :-)

 Alright now, I won't lie to you - when I opened the nappy and saw all the snaps I got a little bit overwhelmed for about 30 seconds - husband however is still overwhelmed by it (but 2 yrs of cloth nappying and he still manages to put the inserts all int he wrong shells whenever he folds the washing - and yes I know how lucky I am to have a husband who helps with the washing :-) so I thought I would take some happy snaps and show you all how the version 2 EzyPeezies MCNs work. These are particularly good fro trying to explain to nanny's or daycarers or daddys just how to fit an EzyPeezies - feel free to print them out if need be ;)

Front view - lots of snaps :-)

Arm view - also lots of snaps :-)

BUT lets break it down....

Front view
- when you know what all the snaps are doing there really aren't that many and they aren't any more complicated than other OSFM with snap closures and snap rise settings :-)

Arm view
The extra snaps make these nappies so much more functional AND help eliminate front wing droopage by adding the extra length to the arms :-)

Fitting your baby:

Lay your baby on the nappy

Bring the front between their
legs and use the snaps to
adjust the rise to suit the bub.

Bring the arms around the
tummy and snap into place
for a firm but comfortable fit.

 For a little tummy the arms will need to be shortened - simply snap the white studs to the pink sockets and use the pink studs to attach the arms to the nappy to fit your bub.

Cos my bub is so squishy I did this nappy
up on the tightest setting, crossing one
arm over the other - baby dolly is all set.

 And of course lets not forget the pocket and the specially shaped inserts that go into it.

Pocket opening at the back - generous size so husband
can do the folding for you.

This is how the inserts lay within the nappy - trimmer at
the front and wider at the back - just like the nappy :-)

 And to give you and idea of the size of this OSFM:

Snapped up to the newborn size:

Little leg holes to fit those gorgeous skinny newborn legs

teeny tiny tummy fitting on the newborn setting.

Size comparison to a size 1 pair of training pants - as you can see
the nappy has lots of room to fit toilet training toddlers (those
arms are snapped to their short length still for the purpose of this pic -
there is still a lot of growing room here!)

So much more space for chubby tummies to grow!
