WOTBB: Kester Kovers AIO - a front snapper that she DOESN"T get wing droop from - yeh! (i'm still having a whinge about the itti bittis i can't buy her!)

85 icons Nessa! wow!!

two weeks without internet ali - wow - sounds like a holiday in some ways, torture in other ways!

rachel - is Pip any better now?

[suse]

Hey Gigi - maybe you and I should petition Itti Bitti to see if they'll bring out a side snap version... I don't get wing droop with the d'lish, but they leak because I can't adjust the legs and wait independently. They fit him perfectly about one week in four... I so want a red one.

I am so loving my lotus AIOs at the moment, they are my perfect snap-in AIO, I am dreading the day he grows out of them because there are no more. Does anyone know if the break Candice is having is of a permanent nature, or will she be returning one day?

My BumGs might be due for a strip wash - I've been getting leaks quite frequently. Or I have to start boosting them. He left a puddle on the sheepskin in the pram today. No jokes, it was an actual puddle.

WOH(sleeping)B: FJ special minky night nappy with matchy-matchy lovely teal grandma knitted soaker, that I fixed the falling off leg cuff on today, so it doesn't have a big hole in it now. Yay.

Nighty night...

Gigi - my Pip's OK. My dog's about to get throttled though - she's barking at goodness knows who.

Suse - love the new photo.

Gudi - why the name change? Very confused. Didn't even notice (cause I look at sigs not names)

Us - still need to collect fluffy mail from post office! When I went down there yesterday there was no power so couldn't collect. Doh. Sheeeeesh its cold.

WoHB - a very soggy snoozywun. Soon to be a BBB with PUL.

good morning all!
We are back (actually got back sunday just been to slack to post) from our weekend away to try & make up for not being able to get to Sammy's babyshower.
First, THANK YOU Sammy for the stitch markers. It was nice to come home to something for me.

Our trip away was ok, but the snow part of it sucked. I did up a review of our trip on my blog if you to have a read.

Isla was in sposies for all of it. Which turned out to be a wise thing as she has had (still has) yukky runny poo & I was changing poo nappies 2 or 3 times a day.

It was nice to put her back in cloth Yesterday but now she has a rash again! It came up after being in one of the Itti's. I hope she hasn't decided her skin can't do suedacloth!

Sammy, I hope you liked the nappies I sent. I have a little dress int he same material that I should have sent also but it wont fit till Buba girl is about 9 months I would say, thats when I made it for Isla.

GiGi, I hope you found something to do with your weekend while the melb girls parted on.

Congratualtions to all those who are preggers! Isn't it funny, the last lost of pg announcments came in a big rush also.
Its good to see everyone doing their part to keep the NB cloth talk alive. As mine, sammy's (pg brain all I can think of just now LOL) little bubs turn into bigger bubs there will be a fresh lot of llittle ones again.
Cluck cluck cluck cluck LOL

mmmm what else have I missed..... I dunno. My brain is mush at the moment I remember stuff all!

[PinkPalace]

FJ - if you get a chance today in the arvo. Jump on MSN - would love to have a chat with you about your student doula!

SOrry i have been MIA for a while. Been a bit hectic with DH applyling for jobs across the country, taking DD out of CC, and fast approaching 5 weeks left before this baby is due..

on the up side... i am excited about trying out my flannyflats and covers soon!

WOHB - BC Pocket

[*Efjay*]

Shall Do, PP, I have play group today & a few sewing thing s I need tog et done but I will pop it on at some point & hope we cross paths LOL.

OH On a sad note, I have just canceled my layby with Itti bitti for the 12 D'lish seconds. Im struggling to pay it off & well, I just don't need them. Had a bit of a reality check after checking the balance on our credit card . Also, I am thinking its the suedacloth causing Isla's rash....

[maz]

That is so sad FJ... luckily my 2 havent gotten the rash *yet*

Now Sarah....what Mama pads did ya get???? Bugger the kids I want some fluffy mail for ME for a change!
Gigi - were did you get that mama pad you sent me from again babe?

Ahh worms are biting in my tummy must eat

[~Raven~]

Gigi you can make a cover just like a pocket but just sew up the hole at the top. That's what I did and it works perfectly. Just make sure the inner is a microfleece so it doesn't wick and sew the elastic to the pul so it curls in. Sorry I don't have a link I just made it up as I went but I don't think it's an original idea as it does end up looking like the shell of an itti bitti!
Oh and there is a PURPLE BILBY nappy on the gossamer dreams site! Check it out!!!

Ali byebye for now!

FJ glad you like them and yes I love the nappies great job! OMG they are so tiny. 10 more weeks till I can use them Can't wait!

QM those choc crackles were yummy! I hadn't had one of them for years

Wow Qld girls it's such a HUGE state isn't it! I though 3 hours drive to visit Maz was long!

Side snapping ittis would be wonderful We really don't have wing droop issues with ours but I still prefer side snap anyway.

Got a poo story to share. Caleb wanted to sit on the potty last night. Nothing happened and he nicked off. Didn't chase him as it was almost bath time and thought he could have some nappy off time for 10 mins or so. Anyway he started screaming about his socks and the little bugger had done a poo (on the floorboards thank goodness) and then stood in it. He was distraught about getting poo on his socks At least I had something to laugh about while I was cleaning it up!

Best I got an hang nappies on the clotheshore. It's raining again

[Arimeh]

Gudi - why the name change? Very confused. Didn't even notice (cause I look at sigs not names)

Kaz - my DH wanted his persona back I stole it cos couldn't think of anything better at the time..lol

PMSL!

[Kazbah]

rogls! I hate changing my name, I used another nick for about 10 years but if I have a daughter, I want that to be her name, so thought I'd better use something else ... no idea what ... then a bloke @ work started calling me Kazbah so that was it

Pip's hopefully going to sleep tonight. Got asked so many times at work about the bags under my eyes I started replying I was changing my name to Gucci so I could sell them for a profit.

WoHB - snoozywun of course!
