Welcome home Mel, :welcome: to MCN Mehkelti!
I checked on bubblebubs b4 throwing the washing in the dryer and yes, I can throw the entire bubble j in there! so I have lots of booster a few towels and whatever clothing that was tumble dryable in the dryer, with the clothes airers in front of the exhaust! should all be dry soon!
i just got some fluffy mail :D
2x baby beehinds minkees (the new ones) a green one and a blue one.. soooooo soft i just want to rub them against my face...
question for all you ladies...
how many times do i wash all of my nappies prior to use?? and what do i use to wash them? liquid or powder? and obviously NO fabric softener :P hot/cold wash???
WTG on the ebay scam Maz! Had a similar thing with the LS I brought...she had it listed for $15 postage but I emailed her before the auction ended and said no way was that reasonable postage when online stores ship them for $5....soooo, I bid $60 knowing I'd only have to pay $5 for postage while everyone else thought they'd be paying $15 and that I was nuts for paying $75 for a second hand LS...ta da!! LOL!
Welcome back Mel! Hope you're recovering well.
Still waiting on my IB too, should check the letter box hey...

katones - which nappies do you mean? If it's the minkee magicalls, then I only washed mine once before using them.
Welcome back Mel - missed your chatting woman!!!

Wow Maz! That must be sad, to be done with your smalls. :hug:

Nelle i cheated and got them express posted, i needed nappies badly.
Welcome back Mel!.
WB Mel!!! Congrats!!!
On our last cloth nappy, waiting for the washing to finish so I can throw the flats in the dryer.
WOHB flat
Thanks guys - its good to be back.
Hey, how do you fold a flat for a newborn - girl? I mean, I use flats with the pad bit in the middle for DS for his piddly widdly bit, but have no idea how to fold it for a newbie? She is so tiny (which is amazing considering she is considered to be a "good size") but she has the same hips as her brother - ie none to speak of - and skinny binny legs. So which would be the best folding method for her yucky gross poos?
I've got some prefolds too from FJ but don't exactly know what to do with them!!!!
WOAB: Haute pocket
WOMB: Sposie till we get this folding method right!! (Don't want to use MCN's till yucky poos gone - but can sacrifice flats!!)
Mel PM me your email & I can send you pics of how I fold mine if you like
Well checked my letter box and the IB were there - woo hoo! Pretty impressed I only ordered them on Monday afternoon.
Look pretty good, haven't tried them on him yet. Can I ask what the snaps under the booster are for though :dunno: Just had a quick look but couldn't work that out!
welcome back mel!!! :)
Hope you and that gorgeous girl are all good!
Katones - was it you asking about washing things? Depends on the nappy adn the fabric - you should have care instructions come with them, otherwise look them up in the websites....like BumG's can be washed (and they recommend) hot, and can be tumble dried, where as tehre are some that cannot be washed hot.
Hemp and bamboo take a fair few washes before they reach their max absorbancy, butyou dont want to wash them 10 times before you even use them! lol So just keep that in mind
I wash most of mine twice, and I use powder, I dont think liquid or powder makes a difference. Oh, and my norma wash is cold wash, warm rinse, inserts in the dryer with my night nappies :)
Ness - have fun hun!
Willow - sneaky sneaky with the LS - I love it!! lol
Well, we are sick. Both of us :( poor little thing has been hideous for 2 days now, had a temp of 38.7 yesterday afternoon so she has had more panadol in the last 36 hours than she has had in her whol elife! And I feel like cr@p too so thats not helping....we spent all day today in bed - so glad DF is back tonight!! I may get some rest tomorrow!
WOHB: Sposies still
willow those snaps are for the microfibre boosters (or bamboo) that you can get as extras!!
mel hope sal can help you out with the right folds!!
alexis hope you feel better soon adn get some rest
Ahhhh, thanks Jols ;)
Fluffy mail!!
I got my wool cover (lovelybums), giraffe minky GK + 3 inserts (to make up for the one I didn't order last time, and a spare), cloth wipes & bumgenius spray bum cleaner.
Have very excitedly washed all new stuff and am waiting patiently for it to dry (no hope of sun so am drying them on the rack in the lounge until morning when I'll finish them off in the dryer).
I'm off now to wash & lanolise my wool covers (new & old)...
WOHB - sandman (first time use!) and longies...:crossfingers: am sort of expecting leaks...
