How much do LS's usually go for? About $70??? :dunno:
willow i got mine for $70 brand new through BBH
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 :redface:
WOHB: Mandy Mac & Maz Cover (and his new huggalug thingys.. hehe)
ETA: Just looked up Rumparooz - NN has them at the moment.. hehe
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.
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

Be good girlies and I'll see you in about 10 threads time (monday)
Someone PLEASE text me when Mel has her baby!
MAUWS!!!!!!!
bye maz

bye maz!!! *waves off in the distance**
Have a good time :)
Where is maz going? I have clearly missed something .... lol
WOHB: d'lish
Her SIL is getting married :)
Don't know much about Rumparooz...make sure we get a review if anyone gets one.
ooh how exciting!!
who stocks these rumparooz?
Alexis - Nurture Nappies has some Rumps in stock.
Gee Maz if you just gave me your mobile number I could message you myself!! LOL
WOHB: Berry Plush
lol mel!
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!!!
noni a few girls have some BP for sale in the classified section, have you checked them out?
ohhh thanx for the tip :)
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! :lol:
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! :D
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
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!!!
Gigi you dont pay post hey if you buy from demonstraters? yes please
hey everyone :)
gigi- thanx for the tip... i hate it when the cover is sold seperately to the inserts lol it bugs me!! haha idk why i mean when i use flats or BBH they need a cover and a nappy haha its phsycological!!
nelle - i love my sewn in delish!! the boosting and stuff thats sewn in seems to stay softer than the tri folds do and as beatrix said they are less bulky.. i find they dry in the same time too which was surprising if not quicker sometimes!!
alioops - ohhhh how exciting!! well done on the purchasing!! nappy high haha!!
anyways off to look at the classifieds coz i didnt get round to it yesterday
Wonder if I will get any fluffy mail today.. I'm sure I still have stuff outstanding.
Or perhaps I should buy a new nappy for every day that I am still here... sitting here as big as a house, might make me feel better.. ;)
RE: Sewn in d'lish - haven't had any leaks so in my book - thats a gooden...
WOHB: Sposie. He's at day care.
Mel- have you got the saoker yet???
Bea - Nah not that I know of. Although DH hasn't emailed me yet from work, and I think I got it sent to him? Or maybe the house address? Crap, can't remember.. lol
Do I need to pre-wash and lanolise before using? I have been using a pair of longies that really really smell like wee so I have to do them, but I sorta have been waiting until I get another pair of something in the mail!!!!! I have a pair of shorties that I used last night (think they are Kozy ones? Got a monkey on its butt) and they should be good for a few more uses.
Speaking of which - we used to have heaps of leaks because of his early morning flood - but since using longies or the shorties instead of the BB wool cover - NO MORE LEAKS... ahhh... love things that WORK!!!!
Now... who thinks I need to buy more nappies...
Still waiting fluffy mail here too.
My llamajama's and BBH
:(
BUY more mel!!! lol
I havent prewashed but i lanolise ?????????
Mel- nah dont nee to prewash but do need to lano, should be there today then
Mel, I think rather then buying nappies, you should have a baby to use them on!!! Go have sex, that will get the rabbit out!
I lied!!!!!!!
FLUFFY MAIL YAYAYAYAYAYAAY
My llamajamas have arrived! OMG they are so thick and warm!!!!
I want a pair for myself lol
Well off to great grandmas now to find out how to knit lol
WOHB - BBB +Purple PUL
FJ - we've tried having sex.. it was horrible.. pmsl
Bea - ok cool will lanolise then. (Although it takes just as long to dry from doing that as it does from washing!!)
ETA - FLUFFY MAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BIG box apparently.. woohooo!!!!!!!!!!
Dang it.. now I can't prove to DH that I NEED to go shopping..
Gigi, I wasn't talking about FOE (although I'm not a fan of that either!), I've found the Magicall elastic digs in, it's like really thin like wire or string...not right on the edge, there's elastic around the leg and then there's the leg frill. This is the version before the pocket Magicalls though, and I was wondering if the elastic is still the same, feeling like a piece of string to me.
Yay and congratulations on all the fluffy mail!! Good work! :D
That's good to hear about the sewn in D'Lishes! So are they as absorbent as the snap ins?
Someone was talking about a minkee with giraffe print... I want one! Can anyone direct me to where this might be found? Then I can go shopping!
Mel - congrats on the box. I'm jealous! Maybe have a nice hot shower for that back of yours....
GreenKids Nettie! We've got the Giraffe one and it's very cute.
Nettie - green kids is out of stock for the giraffe ones (cos thats the one I want too) but you can find them on NN for the same price ;)
OH and I had a shower, pain went for a little bit.. back now.. :(
Well i have my llamajamas lanolising as we speak (beatrix - it is gorgeous you will love it!)
And i just got a and 6 knitting needles and 600gm of 12 ply wool in a maroon deep purple.....
now just to learn how to make soakers.....
PP did u learn to knit.........I need someone to teach me. :redface:
wohb....sposie has the runs
oh no mel - have the tools not the trade! lol
Looking to learn now... searching for info and patterns!
was in harvey norman earlier and they have some learning to knit thing must be a computer program but didnt want to pay $30 for it, might see if DH wants to visit his mum (she doesnt like me very much) and ask her to teach me.
PP - google "warm heart woolies" ;)
thanks Gudism!
Ok back to your prewash woolies question.
My LJ's are lanolising as we speak and the water is a gorgeous FLURO blue.... should i have prewashed after all??? Will they stain when on overnight with the wee etc???
