Cloth Nappies #146

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...

hmmmm Maz... you know.. "miracle..." that particular nappy :D i can't wait to have that nappy for my boys bum....

is lovely and sunny here today.. so might give the fluffies one last wash before the boy arrives on wednesday....

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!

WoPB? BBB with BB PUL cover

what is this moogoo you are talking about?? is it a cream that is safe to use with MCN??

is getting overcast outside here.. NOT good for all the nappies i just washed....

Katones,Glad you like it :)

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.

There must be another 'mummy of 3' Cause im new :) Just a mate of Maz's :)

Hi girls!

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.

WOAH - IB
WOEB - PP's prefolds

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.

spotlight has 20% off
monday..sorry little excited!!!

PP - honey the meet up is next sunday - not tomorrow *mwah*

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 :rolleyes: Hmmm maybe I can talk DH into buying me one....

I put my sewing machine back together today! Yay!

WOEB: Camoflauge Cushie Tushie with bamboo foldup ready for bed
WOSB: a towel but soon to be Red Paws CT with bamboo foldup.

Maz baby, you'll be pleased to know ive just ordered a medium and a large dlish... Thought i'd give them a try since you rave so much :)

YAY kell!!! You go girl friend!!!!!

hey Sammi - I went and had alook at those Twinkles..and wow they look fab
