willow i got mine for $70 brand new through BBH

[Arimeh]

Willow - I think we paid $80 through NN... but I only got it because I was getting other stuff at the same time and only wanted to pay $5 postage

WOHB: Mandy Mac & Maz Cover (and his new huggalug thingys.. hehe)

ETA: Just looked up Rumparooz - NN has them at the moment.. hehe

[Willow]

Mel - saw the rumparooz but waiting on the snap closure, think I prefer that...hmmmm... Plus not overly fussed on the range they have at the moment.

[Arimeh]

Willow - yeah I agree that the snaps look better - but I like the golden autumn one.. that looks purdy... lol

Not that I'm interested AT ALL...
Still gotta talk DH into a minky Green Kids.. lol

hey everyone well i am soooo in love with berry plush!!! i used them today (with no pre washing) and one of them was on for 4 hours.. no leaks!! quite wet too.. didnt have any trouble at all and they clean alot easier than my other nappies!! the poo comes off soooo much easier!!! oh how i wish they were cheaper!!!! bring on tax time!!!

[Olive]

noni a few girls have some BP for sale in the classified section, have you checked them out?

[*noni*e*]

ohhh thanx for the tip

[alioops]

I have BIG Fluffy mail on the way!!!

I have just bought 24 Cushie Tushies and 10 night boosters!!! so excited!

I also bought a dryer today! I have it in my lounge room so while clothes are drying the room is also being warmed up! Sarah loves watching the clothes go around in it!

I am buzzing from the spending spree I had today!!! I cant wait for them to arrive, but I am expecting a couple of weeks because they have a bit of backlog on the sewing thanks to customs with the bamboo. It got stopped for about a week. I also have bid on 2 of the LS on ebay, so as long as 1 of them is left at $50 It is mine! If I get 2 I will pass one on to one of you girls!

Anyone have a sewn-in D'Lish? As good as the snap-in ones? Do tell!

Waggle-wee kids have released their one-size fitted. If you're a sucker for nappies that snappi for a snug fit, I had a tester and they're pretty good. Fit like a glove (only nappy shaped) on Si as a newie. And Gigi - I thought of you the MOMENT I saw the rainbow one. :P

I'm thinking I might solve the 'not enough nappies for Riv' issue by grabbing some more D'Lish and then some sale BBH and some Longies...does that sound like a good plan? (tell me, because I tend to be blind to the most obvious flaws in my ideas. :P)


ETA: Yay for the dryer and nappies Ali! How great!

I forgot to say, in fluffy mail news, I got a BIG package today, and I couldn't think what it was and I started to panic - 'crap, do I buy nappies that willy nilly that I can't even keep track of my orders? But it was okay, it was a delivery from a lingere party. :P
Oh and the other day, a delivery guy came to the front door with a big box, and I was excited and intrigued, til I realised he just wanted to confirm directions for the unit behind us. I should have stomped on his foot for getting my hopes up like that!

[Beatrix]

Nelle i have sewn in

I acually prefer sewn in for my girls, spec for MJ as the snap in are too bulky (the trifold)

Yay on the nappies Ali


WOAB: FJ night nap, dolphin kozy longies
WOMBL bumg

Do you think that Minky liners would work? Instead of fleece? I don't why it took this long to occur to me, but I just LOVE the way poop rolls off minky.

I want to know too - How are the Minky Magicalls different to the PUL ones? Do they still have the diggy-in elastic at the legs? (it digs into Riv's legs and leaves marks.)

have you looked at the prefolds at Mazalicious? they have a middle liner of minky. Lush!

Diggy in elastic - that would be Ye Olde Fold Over Elastic i think - sold as FOE at MCN sewing supply sites.

BEAUTRIX - the northern suburbs BBH consultant sent out emails asking if anyone wanted to order the new BBH minky aio's - do you want her email addy?

CONGRATS SKITTLEBUB! i have not been able to get into BB last few days - site kept coming up as error, so i think i missed your exciting news - from your signature, i'm guessing you had a bub eager to be born? Congrats on your WOHB post!!!


Child Care and MCN
Today, one of the CCC workers said to me "your nappy system works really well, so much better than those old squares". Glad that they are fine with our pocket mcn. I label the front with a sticker saying FRONT cos bilby's worker cannot seem to tell the diff between the front and back, so i'm trying to make it super easy for her. But they haven't had to change her clothes due to leaks, so i think in general the workers are coping. I get the feeling she's the FIRST child they have EVER seen, in MCN, in their CCC.

Great info on the bubblebubs website - that informs you how to approach CCC about using MCN - the relevant state legislation e.g Children's Services Act for your state, adn what it has to say about nappies. Great stuff to read for parents who use CCC and MCN.

I also printed out the pages at NurtureNappies (under info link at top of home page) about What's in a Disposable - so i was fully armed with info when i went into CCC.

NELLE - with your "not enough nappies for Riv" thinking - nappies that dry fast are good to keep cycling thru - so what about pockets + 6 more inserts than you buy pockets. Cos the inserts will take longer to dry. (Aren't there giraffe minkee greenkid pockets? are they a good fit for Riv? if so - you could see giraffes more often LOL

NONIE - sometimes i see Berry Plush for $21 at nurture nappies (cover only i think). Baby soft landings also sell them, and weewuns too, bound to be others e.g baby blossom prolly.

ALI - that's excellent about the dryer - great idea to have it warming up the lounge at same time.

LIMEY - what sort of fitteds? for what weight bub, front or side snaps, plain or prints? any clues? natural or synthetic inners? i have ideas, but will wait to hear more details on what you are after first.

Have a nice computer free five days Maz, we will miss you! Mel has GOT to have had her bubba by the time you get back!!!
