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...
The pink and orange are my favourites I think (and I only have boys) - they're so bright and vibrant.
If I had a blue one I'd sell it to you. I have every other colour though.
Kat - try some of the other online stores - they may stock the colour that you want. I wasn't too keen on my BBB at first - but LOVE them now - and they fit so well on DD now - and she's only 6 weeks (isn't she? or is she 7?? Argghh I'm losing count of weeks..) Plus they are really good on DS - I just ordered another.. uh... 6 I think..lol.. got them on special from another online store - plus just ordered some orange ones.. weehee!!!
I want to buy some more nappies :( And I'm allowed to. But I don't know what I want to buy.. its such a dilemma... plus, I'm sick of buying from the same stores all the time.. I need a new store..... LOL
Someone give me another store...
Mel - I wont tell you that a certain cover place ;) is gonna have a restock in 4 weeks then will I hehehehehe...and there will be boy covers available :)
Kat - get the orange...we have orange for Mateauz and it looks shiat hot with green and blue. We also use the BBH bamboo's at night..they are an awesome nappy to have in your stash cause they are a good, thristy OSFA...you cant really get any beter value for money with them
Oh hummm of to Spot Light I go tonight for some me time....need to buy some buttons...ho hummmm
LOL Arimeh i am also allowed to buy some more but have NO idea what to buy.. was thinking either the BBH or some more FJ but in infant size....
ok... i think i MAY have found a place notethe word MAY.. have blue/green in stock and for $18.75 each... just awaiting on an email to see if they do have those colours....
kat - is that cotton bottoms?
Maz - I think I need more small/medium covers. they keep getting pooped on and I run out..lol
yeah Arimeh.. it is (didn't post it coz i thought i wasn't allowed too) just waiting to hear back from them :)
kat - i have 24 BBB - i use them all the time with DD. I know that they will not leak on me!
i have AIO's for DH.... enough said lol. :)
PP - 24!!! holy moly, you should have shares in the company ;)
You should contact them about becoming a demonstrator... you are obviously a good promoter of them!!! (mind you I still haven't filled in my paperwork to be one!!!)
hmmmm 24 PP? you say... just a TAD obsessed :P
well i had more but sold them.
yeah i have about 50 MCN in total and then 20 prefolds + covers.
I figure that would be enough for 2 in cloth!
lol mel - not filling in your paper work,
Nah charmelea does brisbane demos so they dont want anyone else. But maybe if i move up north i will look into it! :)
I don't know how many I have - but the ones I just ordered will be a nice addition..lol
Katones ORANGE looks awesome on boys! Almost half of Calebs nappies are orange, including several BBB's!

No worries FJ...
why does it have to be soo DAMN hot??
i am ready for bed now :) nana nap this afternoon did NOT happen... maybe i will sleep more tonight.
24 ... I have 45 - just for Nina! :redface:
Jodi - 45!!!! :spit:
holy moly... ;)
You will never believe what just happened.. had DS in an ecobubs nappy - with the snaps towards the back so they can't take it off - the bugger undid the nappy and waved it around!!!!!!
ARGHHHHHH..... this boy needs pants on all the time me thinks!!!!!
lol did he wave the nappy around like a stripper?? hahahahaha
Hi girls - I have a question. With the warmer weather (and feeling less early pregnancy tiredness) I have started using my MCN's again. But ......... we have a problem :(
DS is 15 months and I have BBB, BB magicalls and Bumgenius V3. The BBB gives him a bit of a rash so I have microfleece liners to keep him drier (which works fine) but both the magicalls and the BG are leaking (the BG really badly).
So - I need suggestions. I have bamboo inserts which just don't seem to be holding him for any more than 2 hours (I have given up on the BG inserts). Do I just add more for additional absorbancy or is there something else? I was really wanting to get back into MCN full time but this has been disappointing. Not to mention I was contemplating what options for increasing my stash with a new little one on the way.
mel sophie reguarly stripped off so i put shorties on her for all sleeps!! tie them up nice and tight, cnat help during the day, doesnt happen as much!
jodi ...... 45 wowie!!
michelle have you teamed the bamboo and microfibre together??? id put the microfibre closer to bum as its a quick absorber, the bamboo them soaks fromt that!!
:hello: everyone...
I went back to work full-time this week, so I've been a bit MIA. (not that anyone missed me :crying: )
Been thinking of buying more IB... there's new colours, you say? :rolleyes:
Hi, I'm Nettie & I'm an addict... I've got around 20 MCN (plus prefolds) but I'm afraid I'm feeling awful thirsty ;)
Yay for the sunshine :hooray: I can finally get my MCN dry on the line in half a day!
WOHB: Sandman & Lovelybums wool cover
Gigi - 11kgs you say... well... *coughs* Punky had her EIGHT MONTH check today & uh... erm... *whispers* She is over 10kg & the height & weight of an eleven and a half month old.... :redface:
I finally bought some cloth pads the other night - can't wait to get them, I feel another addiction coming on lol. I won't say I can't wait to use them 'cause that would just be a lie, but I am very interested in having a look at them at least. Who said what that mail would be again... Kaz? Mama mail was it??
Nappy talk - The MCHN I had today was loving Punk's nappies (a SB & an IB) & was telling me about how she spent $400 online for nappies for her daughter's baby but they were cr@p, she couldn't remember the name of them though - doh! Had a big chat about MCN & even BB!!
I haven't even looked at the new itti colours... I will not be tempted... not until the expo at least.
Hi, My name is Queen & I am a nappy addict. I have too many nappies yet also know that I will never have enough. I hope the first step to recovery is realising I have a problem. ;)
QM - I had a pink IB on Emily the other day when she went for her needles, and the dr loved it, so did a few people in the waiting room! She was wearing a pink dress, so you could see the pink IB underneath.
10kg at 8 months, WOW!! I reckon Emily will be like that. She's 7.2kg at 4 months.
WB nettie, how did you survive your first week back at work? Yeah, I haven't looked at the new IB's yet either. Very tempted though.
omg i have mini babies..
Got Mj weight last week 6.1 kg at 5 1/2 mths
Annika is 11kg now at 2...
must say it does save on nappies, they last much longer.. still in small on most of mjs but i do use some med dlish...
hmm i love a chubby baby though so much to squish! Annika is all bones yuck!!!(:lol:)
I forgot to mention that I've been slightly addicted to the Nappy Hunt too....
I have 3 regular icons and 1 extreme icon left to find ;) It's a personal mission now...
I looked at the new itti bittis and they're yummy... the girly ones are the cutest so I've decided 'no' for now... but ask me tomorrow ;)
oh wow nettie!!
I have only found 2 extreme but only have 5 normal to go....
