Cloth Nappies #147

Try folding the back over, inwards, so that it will help catch any blowouts out the back. Should make things easier.

Hi All!
DS is still in sposies at night as he still has a couple of sore spots on his bum. But he is sleeping some better so that is worth it.
My eye was swollen up good and plenty this morning so I was off to the doctor immediately and it is some sort of infection. I'm not on oral antibiotics and eye drops FOUR times a day! My eye isn't as sore but itches like crazy. The good thing is DH said the swelling was down a lot when he got home from work!
Sorry - nothing too nappy related to report - I still feel yuck. Skipped mother's group this morning - primarily about my eye but also because of the friend issues I'm having. SIGH...

WOHB: sposie and lots of curash cream

fluffy mail today! another widdlewun - blue hibiscus with matching singlet. Unfortunately not enough time to wash b4 tomorrow, but hey. DH thinks I should slow down the buying ... but there's xmas & st patricks' day yet! Ahhh well, least most of my nappies are OSFA

DH was trying to do a cloth bum waddle and not succeeding - I was telling him he wouldn't see that with just sposies! AND we have a babysitter once a month now on Mondays - the day I have to work from home with Pip! WOHOO! So I'll convert their kids into using MCN - pockets / AI2s i think Or should I include a couple of sposies? Arhhh.

Maz - such red little cheeks! So elf-like in time for chrissie photos! Where's the tooth?

Gigi - sounds like you enjoyed your function today!

So excited about tomorrow.

WoHB - KK AIO nights

Pink - which covers are you using with the prefolds? i used them with leg gusset covers mainly, padfolded, and that got excellent pootainment - and bilby sure did try that theory out ALOT.

we had 30 x 30 for nb, and 30 x 40 for later on.

LilPrec - good to hear your eye is improving

Christy - ear infections can really sneak up on you. i'm glad Jovie is on the mend.

Have you worked out which brand was the Austin Powers MCN today Ness (shagadelic one?).

I had another dream (making that 4 now)that the baby is a girl. This time I once again gave birth unexpectedly to a baby girl that the best way to describe her was that she looked like one of the "baby Brats" dolls. She was cute & all but thats what she looked like, with blonde hair.
I don't know why I keep having these dreams. Every "baby" dream I have had the baby is a girl.
I am very comfortable with the baby being a boy so its got me a little baffled.

I think I am givign up on the Longies being part of the outfit he wears home. I looke din Big w yesterday & they did have a few of those Polo tops you saw christy but only down to 000 & they looked too big for a NB.
Plus I was also thinking that if he comes home it them, then they go in his keepsake box & then he will rarely get to wear them AND then I can sell/swap them on.
If Only I could find a nice coming home outfit. I have a couple that I don't mind but I really want the one, not just the "that will do" . Same with his nappy, what nappy should I put on him first as I will want to keep that special too LOL. But I don't really want the "my first nappy" theme
I want something cute & orginal...

Poor Isla just fell out of bed. She was in mine as she woke early this morning & came in for achat. So it was a pretty high fall LOL. She is ok though, just a rude way to wake up.

Im going to bleach my hair today, try & get it back to a more natural colour. DH wants me to be a red head again. Said he will cut his hair if I go back to red. Little did he know I have been planning to do that anyway so I said Ohhhhh OK! Poor guy has this thing about growing his hair long again. It was long when we met 12 years ago & he cut it off about 4 years into the relationship & I think has wanted it long ever since. It was his choice to cut it to, I was devastated when he came into work with all his curls gone.
But now to grow it, it has to go through that unprofessional scruffy look & in a uni library, its just not a good look.

What do people think of using Velcro as the closure for wet bags? I was going to make a heap with draw strings but I can't find the time to get to spotlight for the toggle thingsso I can pull it shut. So I thought doing them so they have velcro. I only need to make a couple.

Those who have the sugarbooger bag (I know of at least 2 of you) so you use it as your "everyday bag"? Like toss your keys, wallet etc in it? It sjust seems soooooo big. I just can't see me needing such a big bag but then I am obviously forgetting a few things about having a NB! LOL

Hey those B4Bers out there - what's the go with bloody annoying people using bidding bots on EVERYTHING. I don't usually bother bidding but saw a couple of things that I want and thought I'd bid on them. People have obviously got automated bots running because everytime I bid, they up the bid at EXACTLY the same time I bid. This has happened on about five items. Is that even allowed (obviously it must be because people seem to do it all the time)?

It makes it impossible to win an auction. Grrrr.

Oh, whinge over: WOHB: BerryPlush

[*Efjay*]

what are you biddin gon Suse?

eta - it could be that they have their max bid set higher then what your bidding. So say its sitting on $15 & you bid $17 but their max bid is $20, you will automatically be outbid.
