Cloth Nappies #142

[PinkPalace]

Just wanted to let you all know that all the BBB's and covers are gone now

I got some hautes today... i am imopressed with the boosting power of the insert but not too keen on the pocket openings... might have to add a clip or something... doesnt have the overhang like the BG's which are very very similar!

WOHB --- i dont know.... but i hope CC figure out my cloths i sent

[Olive]

nelle is that the girls night out one on the 6th? im on a shopping tour that day

[Kazbah]

Nelle - I am, was thinking of driving to a train station and catching a train, but if there's company I'll drive

Maz - I know the feeling. I'm looking at my bank statement and it looks like I have a layby happening but I can't work out what for?

PP - I love the hautes, but you're spot-on with the overhang thingy. Mine gaps now

WoHB - dare say flanno flat. Dropped him off in a BBB with PUL cover, he'll either have a BP (saving the world one cloth nappy at a time) or girraffe minkytimes.

Jols it's the 17-19th of Oct.

Maz might PM Sam & ask her if she would mind, thanks for the idea

I just got a call from Lukes teacher to see if I can be at assembly this afternoon as they are giving him an award, he is 7 and they are studying the enviroment and recycling atm well apparently yesterday they had a project (he didnt say anything about it to me so dd had helped him) they had to take 2 items the same one that was bad for the enviroment and one good well he took a disposable nappy and a MCN he told the class that those plastic pants as mum call them sit in our dump for a long time till they go away and mum washes the poo and wee out of the cars one (one I got from MAz is all the kids Fav). The teacher thought he did really well and thought of something completely different.

Wohb...BBH AIO

WOW melham!!! what a well raised son you have there!!!! tell him congrats!!

[Nelle]

Awww Mel! Big enthusiastic high fives from us, that's ace, good on him! Clever guy!

Kaz, I'd love to keep you company! Promise that you won't strand me in the city if I beat you in bowling though. :P

ll80, I'm not the hugest fan of BBH covers, but like FJ, I haven't got any current ones - perhaps buy 1 and see how you like it. I can't speak highly enough of Motherease Rikki covers, and I know Janie's with me on that one.

I kinda figure the gape at the Hautes isn't the biggest deal, since sometimes we lay in inserts. For me, it's probably just an aesthetic thing...

Jols! A shopping tour! Can you come afterwards, or do you think that would probably kill you? :P

Both of my boys are in bed, and I'm eating peanut brittle... :P Stuff the housework (and if you could see my house you would KNOW that I shouldn't be saying that).

[Kazbah]

Nelle - its a date! WOOOHOOOO!!! (and for the record, despite a shaky start, I came second at our work Strike Bowling lunch )

Mel - well done! What a clever boy to pick up the messages you're teaching him. brillant, well done to you, DD & DS!

Have worked out what my layby is (its my starbunz!)
Nelle - I'm trying to get the motivation to go into our bedroom and remove everything from it. It's freeeeeeezing in there though, and I hate wearing layers to clean in.

[*Efjay*]

Thats fantastic Mel, I would be so proud of him. What a bright little man you have there.
You're raising the perfect new age modern man there! He will make someone very happy later on in life.

[Nelle]

Oooh some competition hey Kaz? Ran's and my first proper date, he took me bowling, and on the 10th frame I got a triple strike! Proudest moment of my life. I was organising our church formal dinner soon after, and the placemats were the scorecard. :P And Rans got the framed original for that Christmas.

Still not doing any housework. Although I am curious to go out the back and find out what exactly is on the line...

[christy]

Nelle... I just have to say you are so awesome :P I want to be like you.

Mel fantastic mummy moment! You must be so chuffed & proud of him.

I'm sitting here wondering what I have to do to get to Melbourne in September... I think if I work 2 extra shifts I can get enough $$ to fly. I'll have to pack my own lunch, and will be walking from the airport LMAO I'm just super jealous. DH just said "I can look after the girls if you go down Friday night and come back Sat"

[ll80]

thanks for answering FionaJill and Nelle.
I'm just going to buy a couple of each type and see what works before any big purchases.

I'll try out the motherease rikki cover, I may buy 1 BBh to try it out.

Slowly getting my list together, you girls have been a great help. I've been reading all your comments, makes things much easier!

Hi everyone

I'm just wondering if you have to use the BBH covers with BBH MCN's ( the fitted ones) or can you use any cover?

Are the BBH covers good?

Just trying to sort out what to buy..

You can use what ever gives you a nice fit. I personally had no luck with the BBH covers & fitteds with Isla as she has high hips & I got bad crack exposure LOL. The rise just wasn't enough for her.
I also found that the front of the covers would roll a bit & cause the velcro closure to rub on her belly but its been a good year since I had any BBH covers so they may have changed over the last 12 months.
Other then the issue with them rubbing on her stomach they are a great cover I reckon.
