LOL - don't worry about me guys... I didn't realise the GreenKids came without an insert... so the A4 things belonged to the Good Night Sleep Tight nappy. Geez I wish companies would tag their products so I know what goes with what in an order!!!
I've now done an order on NN tonight and have ordered some extra GreenKids inserts to cover myself! ha ha ha - baby brain
So there's another $130 on nappies... Ordered the giraffe minky!! Can't imagine I'll need much more after this!
WOHB - very wet cushie tushie that needs changing into his night nappy (BBB & Wool cover)

GUDISM - that's great the longies have solved your night nappy woes. (i'm not surprised, just glad you have less laundry to do now!).
NETTIE - i agree, it's hard to know what goes with what! the good night sleep tight comes with so many bits! Hope you find something lovely in giraffe minky to put on your bub.
LIMEY - sorry hon, i didn't get your email at all, such a pain when you spend ages typing, and then lose it in cyberspace! I will ahve a think about narrow crotch, fitted nappies. What kg is your bub now? Are you after high or short rise MCN?
PINK - good on you for having a go at knitting a soaker. I think i goggled "learn how to knit" when i wanted to re-learn the basics. but that was not sufficient to make me knit a soaker!!! What the WAHM's charge for woollies is ok with me, i think they are worth it (to make up for me being unable to follow a knitting pattern).
PINK PALACE - The dye coming out of your longies - that is normal - that is why you wash them separately the first time (to note how much dye comes out) and why in the main, i wash ALL our longies SEPARATELY. The amount of dye coming out in the bucket, has never meant that my bub has blue legs in the morning though!
LANOLISING
You CAN lanolise WITHOUT washing, if you use the SPRAY LANOLIN style of lanolising. e.g sheepish grins at the weewuns. that type of thing. You massage it into the longies with your hands (apparently).
LITTLE SQUIRT
There were several threads on DIY Little Squirt on Essential Baby tonight. Made up from things you can buy at the hardware shop. The woman who wrote the DIY thread is a hairdresser and did it herself (with pics).
ALLIPRALLI
in our local Spotlight, normal price for the PRINTED Little Additions is $12.99 and $8.99 for the plain colours. I ahven' been to the latest sale to know the sale prices. I dread going there because bilby gets bored and riots so i spend all my time entertaining/chasing her/containing her - instead of drooling over quilter's cotton like i want to.
Sewing machine update - am considering Husqvarna Viking 116 in theory - must go and play with one in a shop.
ALIOOPS - are the girls still memerised by the drier? LOL
NELLE - sorry, i misunderstood, i thought you meant FOE, my bad.
FJ - what is the abbreviation LJ at Booroi relate to? is it Llamajama ???
If anyone wants to try making FLONGIES, Fairy fabrics is selling a pattern for them.
WOTBB: Sugarpeas nappy cover with sugarpeas nappy insert and wool night booster.
Good luck Melham! Hope it's soon for you!
I'll be support crew member for my bestie tomorrow at 9am - SO EXCITED!!! (it's a scheduled c-section that's why i know when it is).
Gigi I didn't use it today. must do some washing tomorrow though. I have been busy online today (paid for MPM but announcement hasn't been made yet) and then i had to go and collect our second car and then figure out where the anchor points are. And before I knew it, it is now 12:15 am!!!
So I had better get cracking on heading to bed so I can do lots of washing and grocery shopping and cleaning tomorrow, and I have to keep my eye out for the MPM announcement so I can edit my Sig. Night all
Gigi - oops sorry - Charlotte is unweighed for several months atm lol but I think she must be somewhere between 8 and 10 kg's...she is in a medium everything, mainly because of the rise...She is really thin and long anyhow...will try nd get to a chemist tomorrow and get her weighed
will also resend the email tomorrow too when I can type it out again! lol
Thanks for your help hun And heaps of luck tomorrow too! Hope all goes well with your friends birth!
I tried out a tots bots cover on Nina last night, and no leaks!! So I'm thinking the BBH wool cover is just a little too small. If only they'd do an xl.
I also had Emily in a fleece cover, and there were no leaks there either. Very happy with that.
nelle - If I had to choose between the 2, I would pick the itti bittis over the magicalls. I've never had a leak with them. And if it's nap time for Emily, then I just boost it with a bamboo booster.
I was telling DH about a LS, he'd never heard of one before, and he got very excited. He forever complaining about how gross it is scraping the poo into the toilet. Honestly, if he had to do it every day he'd get used to it! So that's next on my list of things to buy.
nelle im with jodi go the itti's, there the only nappy that holds up after sophie as been swimming! we leak through blueberries after an hour!!! ittis last for about 3 after swimming!!!
should mention too the lovely melbel fixed my zada night nappy as teh snaps came off after one use, used it again and two fell off this time! so not happy with this nappy (obviously not mels fault) must be something about the material the snaps just dont hold what a waste of money
Ordered the giraffe minky!! Can't imagine I'll need much more after this!
what a waste of money
