    its a lack of space thats my problem.
    I need to make a nappy stacker for the prefolds. Might try something for the rest too.

    ok here you go FJ. It may seem really messy but i know what i am doing lol!

    I have only my OSFM and smalls out (all mediums are in stored boxes in the cupboards of #2's room).

    I guess i have the nappies readily at hand to the left for DD on the change table, and nappy stacker with prefolds to the right. Depending on which bub i will be changing at the time.

    I have the things i dont use as frequently (loniges, shorties, boosters, night nappies etc) under the change table, and covers on the shelf just behind me - i just bring 1 of each size to the row on the change table for each day when i need them for the fitteds/prefolds.

    Lucky we have 2 bathrooms as accessing the bath is not an option with my set up ! haha. but i wanted everything in there so i have 1 spot to change both babies (rather than in their rooms).

    Ummm once I tidy the room I am using for nappy stuff I will post a pic too.

    FJ, Ikea and Bunnings have some great stackable crates that have a way to open them while they are still stacked. The Ikea ones are pearlised white, and the Bunnings ones are multicoloured. Cant remember the Ikea price but the Bunnings price was $19.95 each.

    Still havent found my nappy buckets or soakers. They might be in the shed or one of the boxes that is still packed.

    FJ - we only got the change table about 8 weeks ago. I never used one either but my back was getting so sore bending over with DD that we got this huge mumma of a table (home made job) that fits everything. lol It is good though cause i have a greater chance of Ashley keeping still on it than on the floor.. she just wants to run off if i change anywhere else.

    Will probably still change on our bed #2 over night etc - cause too lazy to walk out of the room hehe but at least all the chaos is in one spot now!. Ashley is in a baby bath in the shower cubicle too still. Saves h20 (as we have restrictions up here) and it is in a stand so saves me bending over the bath.
    When she wants to use the bath.. we will then have to re evaluate the set up lol!

    cant wait to use the cute little ittis and bubblebubs small mcns i have.. they are soooo tiny!!!
    Did you decide if you will take mcn or prefolds to hossy?

    Ali - they have to be somewhere! dont you hate moving and the unpacking things! Just make sure no box is missing as i know when we moved to brissy a few months ago we actually had a box of someone elses stuff!!! i was shocked...

    Ok here is what I have come up with so far.
    Nappys

    Change table set up

    as you can see the change table is actually in my cupboard, it fits just nicely but I want to (need to) put a little light in there as the light from the room is behind me & I cast a shadow (big arse & all) so I know it will be a pain in the butt, also if I have a little light in there I wont need the main light at night.
    I also have the cot on the opposite wall which wont get used much at first, I might use it for day sleeps as stupidly this room has a fan in it & its closer to the main part of the house then my room which actually joins this room, its behind the curtain & so is the mess LOL.
    I need another something to put Isla's covers in. At the moment they are just in a enviro bag hanging on the cot, which I guess is fine.

    I will also have a whirl at making a nappy stacker of some sort to hang in the cupboard at the end of the change table (above it) near the mobile thingy. Might even try putting a little shelf in above the change table to put wipes etc on. But we'll see how I go.

    So that all works I guess.

    I would have them close enough that you can grab them with bub on table still. they tend too wee , poo just as you put a fresh one under them LOL, want to be able to grab another easily.

    yep agree - have them close! so you don thave to leave bubs on the table katones!

    FJ your set up is pretty good with the little baskets! i like it!

    I have to have mine in piles so i remember to rotate or i would have some at the bottom never to be found or used! hehe

    And love the baby on the table.. in the cupboard.. is that so if the baby is crying too loud you can shut the door! ? Well at least it is a tidy way to hide things... i love to have a non cluttered feel (even if it is cluttered behind closed doors!

    As for the nappy stacker! they are very easy. I whipped one up for my sister!!! ill see if i can send you the pattern i did up...
    hang on

    Wow all these pics of nappy storage.. no need to post mine - its pretty boring. i've moved them from the kids rooms in their cupboards to an old dresser in the loungeroom. got sick of running to the bedroom for a nappy when we change them in the loungeroom on the floor all the time!!!

    Actually thinking of selling my change table cos I just don't use it..
