Maz, breastpads.. Minkee side down through the feed dogs or Bamboo? I want to make some up with the velour I have left over. Im sure I have plenty of bamboo scraps I could make some with..
Ooh Sammi & Sal, SUPER JEALOUS of your cloth nappy expo-expedition!! I really wanted to go but my olds were visiting & Punky wouldn't go with any of them so I couldn't get a lift to go have a look-see. They left earlier today & Punky was in the best mood she's been in all week once she was here on her own....!!! Poor family drove 14 hours to see her & she mostly just cried at them!!
...aargh, can't think of what I was going to say.... sooo tired....
I hope your family were understanding of Punky though.
I know when we went up to visit DH's family in Cairns, Glenn was only just 1 & one of his sisters was so offended he didn't just take to her like they were best of friends.
I agree Maz, Aldi sposies are the best for the $$.. Its the only nappy Shelby doesnt (always) Wet through generally.. Mind you she has still been known to but im certainly changing the sheets less with the Aldi ones...
Sammi, I didn't get to go to the expo, but sent a couple of new-clothies there to touch & feel, I hope it was worth it for them! I got 2 twinkle lilys during the nappy hunt, so far so good, nice PUL style & thirstyness! And they appear to be CC-proof too!!! (i got paw prints & blue camo PUL) Twinkle Lily also have some lovely, lovely cut-for-cloth organic clothing they import from the UK, warm, solid and pip-proof.
Neighbour baby-sat yesterday and DH took the moogoo out of the nappy bag (WHY?) so she bepanthan'd his red bum ... *sighs* but she gets full points for using the cloth nappies (I gave her a choice, cloth & sposies) so good on her!
katones - ummm moogooo rocks! safe with mcn as is is water-based and doesn't include nasty stuff that clogs up the nappies. have a look at moogoo dog com dog au for a list of stockists, or you can buy it online. if you buy online, she generally includes samples of other stuff.
mummyof3 why do you suddenly only have 3 posts?
has also come across threatening rain here too, drats. I've washed everything! nappies - all hemp is outside. the highchair ... toys ... and its overcast now! DOH!
wohb - bp dalmation. and he's down for a nap, not the best combination but hey.
wanted to share my excitement... cloth has touched Ethans bum! yay.
We entered pumpkin seed poo today so i started him on his prefolds!
Oooh so cute. No covers but honestly not wetting enuf to drench through anyhow just yet
Arimeh - i will not be there tomorrow sorry hun. UNfortunately due to timing ijust cant stop all the visitors from coming around Will have to catch up again soon though.
hey Kaz - ive got 2 small Magaicals that id like to give to you to pass on to some newbies...i'll bring them with me next weekend
WOO HOO PP...nothing better then aprefold honey...ahhhhh..when I hear prefold I think of Nelle...she's the prefold Queen and taught me how to use them...mauws you stalking Nell you
OH shiat thats it yourve reminded me...I NEED MOO GOO
Kazbah - how long does the 250ml tub of Moogoo cream last you? Quite a while? I'm looking at getting some after reading your post and checking out the website.
Do you only need the cream when they have a rash? Otherwise it's just the MCN on their butt right? Generally speaking, if using MCN's bub shouldn't get too many rashes should they? whereas sposies cause rashes? Am i right?
I'm glad i can get that Moogoo cream at a shop just down the road from me.
I wish I had some money Maz, I want some minkee!! and where should I get bamboo from? I have started making some towelling willy covers for if this one or AnnaT's is a boy. I think I will need some breast pads and I would like to have a go at making my own mama pads, nice and thick for lochia or if my waters break on their own this time. I might struggle without an overlocker though Hmmm maybe I can talk DH into buying me one....
I put my sewing machine back together today! Yay!
