    I'm inclined to think a one off won't do any harm to it. Email itti and ask what they think!

    I couldn't be bothered with swim nappies. We hardly ever go tot he pools or a place youcan swim, If we did I would just put an old fitted on who ever it was that needed a nappy. I would say Isla but chances of us goign swimming while she still needs a nappy are very slim.

    We bought some swim nappies from Kmart that were just like a pull up speedo really when Matilda was young and Jovie wears them under her swimmers. Bit bulky but hey... it lets the wee out but holds poo in. I've never had a sausage poo in the pool so it would be horrid to change after if they did, but I guess I just assume we would be jumping in a shower soon after anyway... we'll be moving 5 minutes from the beach so we'll have to get used to it soon

    See FJ - you'd have to come stay for a day or so with your littles in summer!! Spend time at the beach with us.

    WOHB: I can't remember the name of it, but a beautiful fitted rainbow that maz gave me!

    eta:

    Christy - do you get frizzy dry flyaway hair? what can you use that is paraben free for that? the only thing i've found that works is Fructis milk smoother or somesuch - and it has PARABENS in it!!!
    Gigi... I always have fizzy dry hair.... I have some Aveda product my Mum bought me that is called "Be Curly" that is wonderful and stops it, but its like $45 here in Australia, and thats like 2 nappies!!! ATM I use MOP c-system shampoo & conditioner once a week in the shower with an alchemy mask. Than for my after product... I use Organic Instinct Natural baby conditioner (really I do!!!) as a leave in product daily.... if we are going somewhere noice I use mop c-system curl defining cream but I don't like it... when it runs out I'll venture out in my search of a "good" product for frizzy hair!

    Cherie told me about no-pooing and its using vinegar and bicarb?? Or something like that for hair... I have yet to try it. Too scared, but she has curly hair & has sworn by it.

    Mel- Lu swam in the ocean in an itti once and it is fine, just rinsed it well.

    I seem to be converting friends left and right at the moment, not even trying, they just like the look of Lu's nappies! Noice.

    Maz- i have a happy baby swim nappy. Great for pootainment. Made of a thin wetsuit material. Not as cute as some but very functional. Got it from DDU, check em out.
