Hemp Inserts for Cloth Nappy

Extra Absorbency for Heavy Wetters and Overnight Use

The Waladi 4-Layer Hemp Cloth Nappy Insert is designed to add extra absorbency when your usual daytime insert is not enough. It is a useful booster for heavy wetters, naps, longer outings and overnight cloth nappies.

Each insert is made from a blend of 55% hemp and 45% cotton. Hemp absorbs more slowly than microfibre, but it is well suited to holding moisture over longer periods. This is why it works best when paired with a faster-absorbing insert.

Why Choose a Hemp Insert?

• Extra absorbency: Adds more capacity to your existing cloth nappy setup.
• Useful for heavy wetters: A practical option when a regular daytime insert becomes fully soaked too quickly.
• Suitable for longer wear: Helps build a more absorbent setup for naps, outings and overnight use.
• Easy to combine: Can be paired with bamboo charcoal, white bamboo or microfibre inserts.
• Reusable: Machine washable and designed for repeated use.

How to Use a Hemp Insert

Place the hemp insert inside the pocket of your cloth nappy. For a layered setup, place a faster-absorbing insert closer to the nappy’s inner lining and the hemp insert underneath it, closer to the waterproof outer shell.

This allows the first insert to absorb quickly while the hemp insert adds extra capacity underneath.

1. Lay the hemp insert flat inside the nappy pocket.
2. Add a bamboo or microfibre insert above it if extra absorption speed is needed.
3. Check that both inserts are flat and not bunching.
4. Fit the nappy snugly around your baby’s waist and legs.
5. Adjust the combination if the nappy becomes too bulky or develops leg gaps.

Is This the Right Insert for Your Baby?

Choose this hemp insert if your baby regularly soaks through a standard insert, needs more absorbency during naps or requires a stronger overnight setup.

For normal daytime changes, one faster-absorbing insert may be enough. If you need more capacity, add this hemp insert as a booster rather than replacing your entire setup.

If you want a ready-matched nappy and insert combination, Waladi Overnight Cloth Nappy Sets include one charcoal bamboo insert and one hemp insert.
