I'm about to write in with the savings made from cloth nappies :) (what a great thing for reusable nappy week!)

Hey Kaz....... i use the soothing cream all the time. Do you think i should be using the other one day to day? There are no nasties in the soothing cream is there?
Nice work on writing in, maybe you'll get to go and show off all pips nappies????
Ang - it has no nasties, that's the best thing about moogoo!!! (gawd, I should get commission I reckon). But its a bit more expensive than the full-cream and skin milk which is why I use them mostly. Plus I always figure start on a low level to give myself somewhere to escalate to ....
I dunno why but Im a bit turned off of teh idea of the moogoo. Sounds great but the website put me off LOL. So many cows!
I think I would rather put breastmilk on the bum. LOL I don't mean that to come out as FF offensive just the idea of cow milk being used for so much these days.
Oh & don't get me started on Caro!
kaz just went down and got some moogoo soap and more full cream milk cream!!
ange if you want any i can get you some and give to you on saturday!

Katones....Im NOT making you any NB covers...I'll make smalls instead out of your material babe.
Queen hon...maz has been thinking ;) and listening to you (and some others) wait until the new year
I am so looking forward to this weekends its not funny. I need a break from the kids and my business atm.
OK back to mummy mode
maz - sure ;) ooops was going to ask if I could bring a cover for you to fix but ummmmm maybe I'll post it out ;)
bit worried here, Pip slept fitfully all night, woke @ 6:30 had a run around, and several drinks of water through the night, then milk at brekky, then slept until 10am, another run around and more water, more milk and he's back asleep. And his night sposie wasn't that wet, his BBB was dry enough for me to put back on after his nap and then I changed him to a zappy and he's still dry. Not sure what's happening, I can only force so much fluid into him! And no poo this morning yet. :dunno:
WoHB - zappy (still) with motherease cover.:nappy:
Kaz - just keep an eye on him. If his temp goes up, or he gets listless i'd be inclined to get him to a doc. Hope he pees and poops soon!!!
Maz - big hugs - I don't know how you run a business with four kids!! YOU ARE AMAZING!!
Mel - hope your finger gets better quickly!!!
Congrats Kat!!
Can I use Canesten cream with MCN? Im sick of using sposies & the rash is just about gone, theres a small patch that hasnt gone yet but Im also starting to wonder if its coz of the sposies
CONGRATULATIONS Katones!! Euan was 4.2kg too, he was in special care for three days and was twice the size of most of the other SC babies. Hope you're enjoying your lovely newborn cuddles and getting to use your cloth nappies for the first time.
Mel(bel), hope you're OK honey? If you are in recovery mode, just make yourself up a big plushy pile of cowprint minky and relax back in it. Like a big minky beanbag. Mmmm.
FJ - :rofl:. I don't think that they actually use the cows in the moogoo... do they? :p
Kaz - being the resident moogoo ambassador, is moogoo non-liner MCN friendly? I'm thinking of getting some, pawpaw just doesn't cut it for the really nasty rashes, and I would love an alternative to sudocream for when it gets really yukky.
Heidi - :hugs: sounds like you're having a week like mine. Hope next cycle is the one for you babe.
Nelle - I feel well and truly basked in your radiance. (Oh wait, or is that just the UV :nahnah:). I am feeling very blah at the moment so understand the need to get into the outside world. Oh, BTW - I finally had my hair cut on the weekend - it's now fire engine red baby. Hee hee.
Jols - in a front loader I use the Aware sensitive powder. 'Tis good.
I am officially over my BumGs right now. I've strip washed, stuffed more, stuffed less, etc, etc, and yet they still leak out the back. There are two in which the leg elastic is almost well and truly shot, but these don't seem to leak any more than any of the others. It seems that if the insert is a millimetre off perfectly centred then it leaks, to the point where we are having to be so ridiculously pedantic about putting them on E, who wriggles like an extremely wriggly thing and squishes the inserts up anyway as soon as he starts moving around. But they only leak every now and again, it's not every change, I'll have a few days or a week where they don't leak at all, then all of a sudden three in a row will leak, and I just can't figure out why. Grrr. It's really bugging me.
Maz, a while ago you posted a really good method of redoing leg elastic in BumGs, I can't find it, can you remind me please? What sort of elastic should I use?
WOHB: Bamboozle and Sugarpeas wool cover. And nothing else, it's bloody hot up 'ere...
Suse - I don't use liners most of the time! Onl if its BBs or BBHs and I'm expecting a poo!
Does anyone have the link to Katones birth announcement? I can't find it? Congrats hun :)
Maz thats quick!!! Will you use the soaker? If not you can pass it on... its a Shannon soaker ;) too small for Jovie now. I thought the dress might be a bit big, but that red would suit your gorgeous girl!! Matilda's just grown out of it.... only just.
Suse that stinks about your BumG's. So strange how some of us have favourite nappies & they don't suit others? I just find that random. BumG's are still the top nappy used in our house, but since they are easy they are used at day care mostly. I only get to use them on the off chance I have some clean & JJ isn't going to day care anytime soon.
WOHB: Sposies :( she woke up with a horrible angry rash, so I sent her to FDC with sposies and cream.... couldn't be bothered explaining liners etc.
Im not sure that katones has listed her announcement yet.
We got a txt in the october due group! :)
Suse - i hear you on the BG elastic. It is shonky! i have repaired one twice already... actually have it on DD bum atm... hoping no runny poo lol...
Christy - Mmm the soup is divine thanks so much!. Called Liz today too - i was a little slack returning her call but she understood :) HOw is the organising going?
SKittlebub - i found the best way to treat DD's rash in mcns was water and flannel and then Dry throughly (this was the trick i think!!!).. and then plain cornflour. If i had a liner (fleece) i would use bepanthen and it would be gone in 2 nights :) HTH
WOAB - BG
WOEB - Sposie ;)
Ness, the sandman has landed. Thanks
PMSL, No its not the use of the cow in the moogoo, its the use of so much cow MILK in things. LOL
Skittle, No don't use that with out a liner in your nappy. Its horrid **** to get off your nappies! I was using it with fleece liners & I just tossed the fleece liners after use as I can't get the stuff off!
thanks suse, does it have the optical brightners etc... or is it a 'healthy powder'!!
sal ive used canestan with MCN just use a liner!
