Afternoon clothies!!
Ali - I hear you too - seems alot of us here do, seems the cost saving of cloth V sposies is more of a consideration to everyone than I thought!! :) I most of all hear you on the DH eating everything, often that happens here, seems he can never just have a sandwich for lunch like a normal person, has to eat whatever was going to be for dinner... and whatever was going to be for the next night's dinner.... grrrrrr. I know it's not easy for me to say but try to focus on the positves in your life instead of the negative $$$ situation, I know if I thought too much on our cr@ppy financials I would be in a much worse place mentally, even if all I really have is that we're all healthy & Punky is happy & doing well etc. It helps that we don't have a mortgage atm but even that doesn't bare thinking about... we aren't getting a deposit together either.... ANYWAY, I hope things look up soon & do try to make sure you get enough to eat, like Nelle said, who will do the washing if you die of malnutrition?! :lol: :hug:
Gigi - I'm sure when she is mobile we'll have a similar situation, will try to enjoy her relative quietness while it lasts lol.
yay pixie on your fluffy mail - how exciting for you!!
WOPB: haute pocket
PP - I don't think baby responds well to peer pressure.... lol
WOHB: still swaddlebees, but will change soon...
ETA - WOHB: BBB with Maz cover
hey worth a try!
mel MPVW have 1 newborn magicall for sale for $10 posted!
thought i would let you know
what is mpvw ????
another nappy website melham. add the www and the .com.au lol
only have newborn size though.. but thats right!!!! go mel!
WOW you girls can talk. A girl goes to work for 9 or so hours & 3 pages later!!!
Ali - mate, I work part-time, Mondays and weekends and Thursday nights. We sometimes have to wait to the next pay day to buy food in our house. Its hard, it stinks because we are moving to Sydney & I think I'm going to have to work more, which mean Jovie will be in childcare more. Matilda is due to start prep/kindy/whatever that year before grade 1 is. That means she'll be in school at least 3 days a week with before/after childcare. I'll have to work a minimum of 3 days during the week & 1 weekend shift. Sucks, but its a choice we are making for the long term family. In Brissy we are just getting by, so Sydney will mean more working for me & no more children.
Everyone seems to have at least a couple of magicalls..... so are they good? At that price I'm very tempted myself (or perhaps you evil ladies have just led me into the dark underworld of fluffy-mail addiction!)
lol pixie - there was only 1 left.
I dont use the magicalls. i prefer fitted and cover
Mel - what brand is the nappy??????
I am not sure Maz...no tag on it I remeber I brought it of B4B.
WOHB BBB and cover
It's official - I'm hooked! I just bought that BBH! and it was only $9 with free postage.... can't go past that!
mel hun - would you like to swap..your nappy for one of my covers?

And I don't mind the magicalls they are ok. Have heaps of newborn ones that I haven't used yet.... patiently waiting to of course.... but I have one for DS and it hasn't leaked.... so I say thats good.. lol

WOAB: ummmm nothing she is doing the nudddy run
WOMB: cute tooshies with nessa cover
Darn... just checked out the snoozywuns and discovered that the Medium size starts at 7kgs... Liam's only 5.5 kgs (approx) so we've got a way to go before he can use them...
Guess I won't buy any just yet then :(
WOHB - Prefold & Mio cover (I think, DH did it!)
oh oh what are yo girls up to??? (FJ and Ness ;) )

and there cheap!! cant order them though, it doent have add to cart!?!
email kelly or sarah babe ;)
just did !!
Hey that mpvw website is cool - I think I've stumbled across it before, can't think why I haven't been back!
My internet is sooo slooooow at the moment, we've gone over our usage so the speed is capped - ARGH! Slow!
Jolsy baby, did you get my PM? Awhile ago?
Will definitely have to check out Snoozywuns!
I'm really sorry I can't remember what else I need to say, this slow loading has thrown me. :P
Go the Snoozywuns Nelle and Maz.. you know you want to... :p
WOHB: Sandman & Wool Cover. (Both Snoozywuns are hanging on the line... maybe I DO need a third one.... )
Stop talking about Snoozywuns women! LOL
Mel, it didn't arrive today, but I would have guessed that it will take two days, so we'll see what tomorrow brings :lol: Will let you know when it's here!
WOHB: BBB
FIONA JILL - the nb prefolds we used were actually 30 x 30 bamboo foldups from baby beehinds (smaller than the bamboo prefolds that bbh used to sell, which were too long for us at the start too, just like Gudism mentioned).
PINK PALACE - we started out using JJ wipes too, until i discovered the chemical ****tail in them.
We wipe with one flannel and then pat dry with another flannel, as i read that if the bottom is a bit wet still when you put next nappy on, that can provide an ideal environment for NR. For CC, when i doubt they have the time to pat her dry, i pack a bottle of cornstarch powder, which absorbs any moisture left.
I am SO PLEASED for you that the NR wasn't there today, WOOT - wot a relief for you and bubs!
AJP - OSFM fitteds?
Babygreens
WHizz Kidz side snappers
GUDISM - thanks for de-confusing me!
Yes, i get mixed up when i have the USERNAMES straight in my head, and then people start using IN REAL LIFE names as well, and then i lose it! I haven't gotten to meet you all at the meetups, so i don't have the faces to go with all the names, that i suspect some of you (well many of the Vic gals) do. IT's like juggling many balls in the air at once - i keep dropping them!
So all my comments to MELHAM about having ht ebaby, yep, they were meant for YOU hon!!!
Nelle - your rationing is HYSTERICAL!!! LOL, such control!!! i am in awe and admiration!!! The threat of no washing done is just CLASSIC!!! ROTFL PMSL etc etc
Nelle, bilby dialled 000 the other day, then handed me the phone! Kids!
PINK - might be worth boosting your BBH's for Ashley. (more than the two boosters it comes with).
24 prefolds sounds good. You can make nb age nights easier for yourself by lining up all the covers you have, with prefolds and liners sitting in them, all good to go (for that night).
The Pixie - i have no clue if you are new - in which case WELCOME, or if you are an established member who has changed their username just to confuse me!
Doesn't take much ha ha
i do not own one magicall btw. But the baby beehinds PUL covers and their wetbags are very good value, excellent materials used, great products.
WOTBB: Sugarpeas A12 combo (cover and SP insert)
3 hour orientation visit at new CCC today - 3 hours 3 nappies. I think the CC worker took me very literally when i said that you need to change more freq with MCN than sposies! Not sure how i can tell her to slow it down without causing offense. She's a bit *****ly (My sister uses cloth nappies so i know all about it) except, turns out her sisters uses flats, not pockets with bamboo inside.
oh and FJ - that website you mentioned two days ago, all i get is errors for that site, are they still open (as far as you know) - i forget the name now, but it started with a B
Gee, anti norty words software has asterisked out *****ly - when you ***** your finger on a sharp thing.
Has anyone tried the brand called WAHMIES, OSFA pockets that close with a clip thingy - to stop bubs taking off their nappies, similar idea to what the ProRaps covers use. I'd like to hear your experience if you have used them, i saw them on the cheekytots website i think.
Gigi, ROFL at Bilby dialling 000!!!! How funny! :cryinglaugh:
GiGim have PM'd you the link
Gigi - your posts never fail to put a smile on my dial!PMSL at Bilby dialing 000 - Vy has donet he same and it scared me.
Big Woo hoo for me!!!!! I over estimate our $$$ with centerlink every year to be safe...welll I just checked and they will be paying me over $5000 back this year! So it looks like I'll be picking up my BBH layby early!
$5000????? holy moly maz, that ROCKS. Good for you! I think you should treat yourself to something nice.
I agree Maz.. you should do something extra special just for yourself!! After you pay off that layby of course ;)
You should take a holiday to Queensland ;)
Id love to come to Queensland but have my SIL's wedding in 2 weekends time.
Defently going ot the hair dressers thursday night to tame my mo brow and get a perm so I can look like a poodle
Bloody hell Mel - when is this little girl of yours gonna come out!!!!
pmsl @ poodle comment - yup been there done that!!! LOL
And I don't know when this little girl is going to come out.. maybe the look of the stacks of nappies awaiting her is scaring her to death..... lol

"NOOOOOO NAPPIES - mum is going to change me every 30 minutes so she can try them all out arrhhhhhhhhhh"
