    PP - I got a large for Aricyn - because he is just over 11kg and large goes from 10. It fits him really nicely, although i have ordered a medium because he has a really slim waist so it should fit him ok as well.

    I put a BB wool cover over it, but it doesn't quite reach the top -nearly but most of the time I try and pull it up as much as I can. I like using my longies or shorties over the top of them - even though they don't need a cover - I do it because I know he does that big morning wee.

    Nelle - so the open pocket part is supposed to be at the front and I'm NOT going insane?
    I think DS still fits into the mediums... lol.... since he has decided to be on a liquid only diet (can't get him to eat ANYTHING) then he'll probably be in smalls soon...

    what longies does eveyone buy. I am looking at the ones on DDu... buying a longie and a shorty....

    there are a few on an auction site.... Oz... but i think it must be a WAHM.. they are only $15 for shorties and $20 for longies... do you think wool is wool or better to go for the ones on DDU?

    Ness if you need any pointers just give me a yell. How did you score a free overlocker?

    PP, Are the longieson DDU the Kozy designs? If so you will find them a thinner ply then others. I have a a couple of Kozy designs & have no issues but have found them a little more prone to compression leaks if sitting on your hip with a very wet nappy LOL.

    Lime, No my longies never showed

    Fj- my grandparents have been pn the prowl for me for ages and they found one in the paper. so they went down there this morning and got talking to the couple (i think they told them all about me and my marriage prob etc) and the lady said well as we cant find the manual and dont know anythign about it just take it,

    Its a pfaff hobbylock 783 model, so is a few year sold but seems to be in great nic, very clean on the inside.

    i got the manual off the net (gotta love google) and have threaded it, it is all colour coded but for some reason its just not picking up the stich (like with a normal sew machine the bobbin thread is the bottom stich) so yeah am a little confused. i will have a fiddle with it later and see what i can do

    if not i will bug you on msn!!! lol

    Pink - i am confused - you ask questions about MCN, i do my best to answer them (if i have ideas on those topics, then you post the same or similar question the next day. Not sure if you don't understand my answers or if you don't see my replies. I'm unsure.

    for example, your questions today, i answered yesterday (cos you asked them also in last few days. My reply to your questions yesterday is found in this post
    https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...7-post232.html
    (it's a few pages back, so to save you searching for it, i've just put a link (hope this is allowed mods - i have gotten in trouble before for posting links).

    I gave you places to look for photos to help you choose woolly stuff, websites that educate you on how to use wool for nights, all kinds of stuff, how to measure the rise, etc.

    If my answers are gobblygook to you, just say, and i will try and re-express them in a different way. I'm sure i use way too much MCN jargon! remind me to un-jargon if i type out stuff that is clear as mud to you ok, cos i don't INTENTIONALLY try and confuse you. (if that's what it all boils down to).
