Katones, you can always prove your 'pink' point by offering your dh a liqorice allsort and then pulling it back at the last minute - 'oh hang on, you can't eat it, it's got pink in it and you're a BOY'. Won't work if he doesn't like liqorice of course. :P

And trust me, Ittis are renowned for their trimness, if you own any of those diabolical Pumpkin Patch pants which are only designed for skinny sposie butts, you go for the Itti every time. The original itti bub is a slight kiddo, so hence a non-bulky nappy was designed.

Having said that, pretty much everything will look bulky on your newborn! Baby BeeHinds Bamboo looked HUGE on Si as a newborn, and are very trim on River. Prefolds and flanelette nappies not so bulky. I have 24 flanny flats, 24 prefolds, and some fitteds for a newborn, as well as sposies. :P If you have a bub like my first, 24 flats, a few prefolds and a few fitteds will be fine. If you have a bub like my second (spewy), you will need perhaps one million nappies. And outfits.

Right, well I have bored even myself, so I will move on.
