I was felling destructive, so I just dissected an old Monkey Doodlez I had here.
I am rather surprised with how little there is too it. I boost the one I used on Isla when it fit but Wow!
All it is is
Outer - PUL
Absorbent - a full body of flannel with 2 layers of terry towelling in the absorbent panel
Inner - Fleece
Im surprised that they are as absorbent as they are when thats all there is!
eta - Maz, i have a black MD here for the little guy. I got a NB MD of NC & its so tiny LOL
evening ladies.
Am being good ... only bought more moogoo this week (for me) and for Pip another snoozywun, some cow print flongies and ooh yeah, a mama pad for me.
FJ - least that explains why they didn't really work for us then!!!
Am not buying any itti's until the expo ;)
Mel - she's gorgeous! More longie than bum but gorgeous!!!
Maz - do hope you're not coming down with anything.
WoHB - snoozywun. Really hoping he won't do a huge poo, he should be sleeping ...
FJ: i thought the Monkey Doodles used MICROFIBRE for their absorbency, or maybe i'm confused between teh Originals and the Micros MK. But the proof is in the "FJ Deconstruction" - cos there is nowhere to hide, once FJ is on the case!;)
Cow alert (Maz and Kazbah) on the NZ site called Mother's Instinct, they have the Goldbug harnesses, with a new COW version. You put it on the toddler like a backpack, and you hold the strap so they don't get run over. We have the Koala one (only cos they don't make a bilby one!!).
I made up my mind to get some BlueBerry trainers in medium, while discount code for hunt is valid, but mediums are obv the most popular size bought, hardly any mediums left in stock, and not in the colours i would have liked. (emerald, sapphire, the purple one).
bilbs has hit 11kg - no wonder my back is giving me grief!
WOTBB: night nappy wot dh put on her, KK AIO i thunk with longies cos dh thinks they are the grooviest pj bottoms - he realises it is overkill (mcn wise).
Gudi - ouch at the felting of your cover - i feel your pain! expensive lesson to learn heh? i'm so paranoid now, i store the woolies needing to be washed, in a completely separate room from the nappies waiting to be washed. The one time it happened to me, dh put the wool cover IN THE NAPPY PAIL!!!! Then he just happened to do the next nappy load, and didn't do a very thorough sorting job.
i wonder if Alioops is on the plane to Townsville by now?
Maz hope your feeling better soon!
Gigi - Bugger about the trainers! I picked up one from baby blossom but there wasn't a lot of colour choice there either. Have you tried the superundies from DD they are really cute and lovely and trim, not a huge amount of built in absorbancy but have a front pocket for boosting!
Have fun itti shopping to all those going!
Darn it had some thing to say and now I can't remember what it was....
Oh and if anyone wants a felted small purple sugarpeas woolcover let me know :-)
Alright everybody hold a minutes silence for FJ's dissected monkey doodle!
I chose not to open that email from itti bitti. Now I come in here and find this kind of temptation! You girls are going to get me into trouble :lol:
i'll grab it sarah!! let me know how much!!
.......just held my silence sam!!
sssoooooooooooooooooo tired this morning was up 5 times last night! sophie has had 3 tantrums and its only 7.50am.
she wet through a huggies the other night....not happy jan!
I have to say I was tempted... :doh:
Hi my name is mel.. and I'm an addict.....
Ah the MD that went under the stitcch picker was a Large & I serisouly don't see how any child would still be in nappies that would be big enough to fit it.
I use to use it as a booster/cover for night nappies when she was a massive wetter. But Now its just been sitting in a pile of "swap/FTGH".
I wanted to see whats in them as I like the size of the NB one. But can't afford to buy more.
So I made up a look a like.
I did it with PUL, & Fleece inner the same.
But my absorbent layers is a full body of cotton rich fleece with 2 more layers with a layer of microfibre sandwiched between those.
I came up looking ok. Im going to change the pattern a little though so the front wraps around the belly a bit more to avoid wing drop.
But I think it will make a good NB lots of little wee's quick drying, daddy friendly "sposie" lookalike/usealike nappy.
DH really is thick when it comes to MCN. Not that he will be changing nappies left right & centre but if I have a pile of user friendly ones I will be confident if I need to ask him to do it that it will get on ok. Even back in the day of sposies he would never put them on tight enough. Thats the one thing I have always had to tell him. DO THEM TIGHTER!!
I prewashed all my NB stuff the other day. AIO's are the only thing I think I want more of.
I had a nB md and it was crapola fiona..the wee rolled out and everywere. So did not make my day.
have stayed away from the IB's you naughty woman. BUT Kaz thanks for reminding me...must get some moo goo for my kids buttox's. Vy woke scrfeam 3 times last night and holding her woo hoo. She finally has her eye teeth coming through so I gather its stinging her woo hoo when she wee's.
Mel....My name is Maz...im a MCN-a-holic also...my addictions has now lashed out to the wonders of material :ROFL:
BBL - Vy is trying to body surf mateauz again
hmmm I wonder if mine will work any better then.... Do you think it was size or just the nappy being crap?:
:
PMSL!!!!!
Sound like my family!!!
oh newborns... I want one, would you believe MJ is almost 6mths!!! and is now growing out of all her small nappies... NOOOOO
thinking i may do a itti layby!!!
can any of you girls here tell me your thoughts on the BBH bamboo or hemp fitteds??
i am curious and have no idea if i should get afew of them?? or just one for now to try when bub arrives.. (but then they are now discontinued)
kat - my entire stash for Nina are baby beehinds bamboo fitted. I love them. They're a great day and night nappy, take hardly any time to dry. I will occassionally use them on Emily as well, but I prefer the more trim mcn for her. I would definitely suggest you trying them out.
Love them. And I don't think they're all discontinued, just the colours in the bamboo. So they'll be natural coloured from now on. They should on-sell fairly well too, if you don't like them.
thanks for your reply.. am just unsure.... might get one might not....VERY undecided.
They re-sell really well. If you get one, don't like it, then I'm sure you'll have no problems re-selling it.
i usually would just buy whatever.. but i can't for the life of me do it....i have NO idea why... might go have a nana nap and then see how i go....
i really wanted a blue one but there is only a pink/orange or natural left...hmmmmm gotta think some more...
