[QueenMab]

Kaz - no I haven't but am VERY interested in doing some shopping lol.

Maz - I feel like such a dork not having some great, delicious 'plate' up my sleeve IYKWIM, I may very well just end up bringing chips.... what sort of woman am I?!

Well, nappy hunt not doing so well over here.... it gets BORING pretty fast!! I guess that's what you were talking about Nelle?

[Willow]

hey girls...

Maz - should I have received my covers yet? Cause I haven't. No hurry for them, just wanted to let you know in case you'd sent them

Would someone mind PMing me the nappy hunt code so I can use it for the IB sale? I seriously don't have time to do it this year but want the discount! Or is that bad clothie ettiquette??

[maz]

Vic - babe dont stress about it I LOVE CHIPS!!!!!!

KAt - glad your happy matie

Willow - have pmed you

Melham - are you better now matie...hope that all the kids arent sick anymore

*dashes in with one hand typing*

Hello alllllllllllllllllllllll

I'm so busy I can'tt even go shopping for nappies that I need to buy - any volunteers?

heehee

Did a load of nappies today - christ they build up quick with 2 in cloth....

Nothin exciting to report - Nelle I agree with the doing it once comment - either that or we all need robots.

Whoops just looked down and teat was in DD's eye... that's not right.

Hmmm DS is giggling to himself - must be doing something naughty... best be off!

Have a good one all...

[Nelle]

Each code is different I think Willow, but many people sign up for the hunt for the code - you don't have to hunt too hard! So just sign up yourself and you'll get the code that way. Whether you hunt or not is up to you.

[PinkPalace]

Well nappies smell fresh no stains.
Only one liner smelled a little of wee still.... but through it in witht eh next load anyhow.

so far so good

[~Raven~]

Willow I'll only register for the code this year

MAZ - the collage idea sounds really nice thing to do for the NICU.

i looked at the Itti bitti site and thought of you. The itti boos have their own heading now, and the fitteds are hidden under some title like "one offs" - well not that, but certainly not under FITTEDS anymore. I looked thru them and thought of you, did you get the geckos? the surfboards (i looked thru the cotton knit outer ones).

For anyone after OSFA fitted with front snaps, very nice ones on the Peep-O site, and some i noticed had cotton velour inners.

QUEEN MABEL AND KAZ - want some cloth mama talk?

• girly bits (on ozebaby)
• nice knickers (on ozebaby)
• noonee wilga (on the clothpadshop)
• swaddlebees new line (What's New on the weewuns site)
• mommy's touch PUL/ microfleece at natures cradle
• mommy's touch brocade at nurture nappies
• sustainable hemp products

googling obsidian star will bring up the Cloth Pad 101 stuff - she's amazing - her stock levels are a bit low right now, but worth remembering that name

i would avoid the happy heiny ones

it's just like buying nappies, if you understand what the fabrics do, you'll get what you want. Esp important for the layer next to your skin. E.g do you want a stay dry layer like microfleece or a more breathable option like cotton or bamboo velour or a purely absorbent option like flannelette?

KAZBAH - eek at the nappy left in the car! was it the vintage car?

GUDIE - what nappy shopping do you need done? i can research a bit for you if you tell me what you're after.

Anyone after a large Disana woolly pullup, check buy for baby right now.

WOTBB: swaddlebees royal blue SS with organic velour inner. poor petal is having the acidic teething poos right now. She giggles when i put the Penaten on to soothe the red "burn" marks.

[Arimeh]

Gigi - thanks for the research offer!!! I know what I want, its more that I don't have the time to research best price (including any discounts and delivery!!)

Ideally I would like to get more GK's, BG's and IB's - all from the same place to save money on delivery... but I don't think its doable......

[melham74]

Gigi...just to let u know there are 2 swaddlebees on B4b with the organic velour lining.

[Gigi]

Gigi - thanks for the research offer!!! I know what I want, its more that I don't have the time to research best price (including any discounts and delivery!!)

Gudie - without looking, i can tell you that nurture nappies sells those three brands, and no matter how much you buy, postage is capped at $5. So i think it might be do-able after all.

MELHAM - thanks hon, i have bid on them!

[*Efjay*]

Hey Melham, any luck with the bank?

I got my Disana woolly overalls from teh swap I did, while I love them, there not as flash as I thought they would be, wouldn't spend the money on getting the new. They are full of seams. Every last bit is bit joined to anoutehr bit, even the cuffs on the legs!
Im going to attempt my own version once I finsh the longies for ISla. But I will do them int he round as a 1 piece. I figure longies with an extra long ribbing will work nicely.

Im up to the cuff on the first leg of the longies I am doing for Isla, hoping to finsih that & start the next leg tonight. So glad I live in the cooler mountains as by the time its finshed its goign to be too warm down the hill LOL

[melham74]

Fiona..it bounced back to my account this morning...had one number wrong but have resent it to the correct details now.

anyone doing the nappy hunt, I cant even find one of them

[melbel]

try mine mel..it's easy peasy!

[Arimeh]

Gigi - thanks babe - you are AMAZING... baby brain and all had forgotten about the capping

For BumG fans - do you like the AIO's as much as the pockets? Cos I don't really see that much of a difference between them performance wise - but just wondering what everyone else thinks... I have lots of newborn nappies, and lots of larges, but not that many medium sized nappies and just tossing up which way to go..
(Plus NN has bumG's AIO's in the spec corner at the moment for $19 each... soooo...)

What does everyone think?

[Kazbah]

*grumbles* DH has decided that donuts are evil, and took 2 I had left over to his work today, and tells me they're evil and he won't let them in the house. I have pointed out that his Shapes have more fat contents and he eats 3-4 packs of them a week, plus around 4 bottles of coke. And he complains about the ONCE I've brought home donuts this year! ARGHHHHHHHHHHH.

On the other hand, doing well on the GDNH, found all the P's and R's and halfway through the S's. Haven't bothered with the extremes yet though. Seems easier this time than the last one I did? The first site I looked in was a pads site (platinum panties) so bought a few from there to try.

I guess the evil thing about the GDNH is that you see all these sites, with all different styles of nappies, so you get carried away!!!!

WoHB - cowprint HH

[melham74]

I figured out the clu but cant find the icon

[*Efjay*]

ah figured it be somwthing like that, no worries.

Im not doing the hunt this time, last time sucked LOL
