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!
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....
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?
Maz - I remember Gigi said she got it from the cloth pad shop but I don't remember the exact name... I have to get me some too before the end of the month (to use the hunt discount), just have to a)find the dough & b)REMEMBER!!!!
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
Oh no FJ. Hope it's not suedecloth! I love suedecloth! (and forgive the wicked wicked girl in me who will be watching itti seconds now )
I'm a bit scared to hang nappies outside, it's been so windy lately! They could end up in some trees or something!
I know Sammi, that's what I thought, that Qland is MASSIVE.
Yeah not long PP! Wow.
Riv's helped himself to a banana, just peeled one strip off, and is trying to eat it through the gap...pretty messy. Don't have the heart to take it off him, I'm proud he had the smarts to peel it! :P
Maz - twinklelilly, I tell you this nappy hunt is NOT good for my pocket. So many great sites with great stuff!
Any NQ'ers we have finalised the details for reusable nappy week. I will post in general but thought I would let you know here save hopping all over the place (no one is profiting so hope that's OK)
- shopping centres at Castletown, Willows
- Market day Sun 19th Oct 8-1pm Cotters Market in the city (The Nappy Bucket, Sustainable Hemp + Cuddlesncloth + others to confirm)
- Picnic on The Strand 12:30-3pm raffles, and meet many of the WAHM who make or sell cloth nappies in NQ
Gotta run only 3 days till we leave for Brissie and SOOOOO much to do
