Cloth Nappies #148.

[1MOREPLZ]

K, it should be, the booster is more for longer stretches. So you should be ok as long as you remember the booster isn't in it & may need changing earlier.

Thanks FJ.... i ended up today trying the infant sized nappy on him... it fit great but not long after putting it on him.. he did a huge pooplosion!!!

I have had the worst afternoon ever!! i finally cracked it with Jack not sleeping last night & today he drains me at EVERY feed and i am constantly feeling 'empty' and that i don't get a chance to 'refill' he just wouldn't sleep... so i made a bottle up.. he guzzled it.. and as i was feeding him i cried....made me feel like a failure as a mum....hubby asked me how he went with the bottle and i cried some more...

So does anyone think it would be OK to try a small peapod on a NB???

Hey Kaz -were did you get that teething necklace from babe? Ive found a site called inspired by finn that has them but its US and I preferr to leave our $$ here in Australia

Took Bertha in to get fixed at the sewing machine shop today adn stummbled upon cow minkee for $16m....ringing monday morning to double check with a sales person who knows their materials rather then the old bat there today who had no idea.

Ive lost an IB....my aqua blue one..dame it!

WOMB - raw hide - has teething rash
Vy is now our resident streaker..she's not like me AT ALL!

ETA - Katones honey big hugs for you babe...you can only do what you can babe...try not to be hard on yourself

[Kazbah]

maz - darlings downunder

How much is minkee usually Maz?

[melbel]

That's an awesome price Maz! Just make sure it is real minkee and not a cheap knock off before you go forking out for it though...I have seen quite a few cheap and nasty chinese imitation cropping up of late where they look and feel like minkee and even though the density looks okay when you make it up etc it doesnt hold wees in very well...... I know one of the bigger nappy companies got stung with stuff like this a while back.....just a heads up. one way to check it is that the bolt should have a label on the end and should say either benartex or avlyn or minky delight even if it is the real stuff...if it is a no name bolt it is probably the chinese stuff. And by law now it should at least have a Made in...... sticker somewhere so you could check that also......

[Arimeh]

Kat - you can only do what you can do honey. It's a difficult job this parenting caper!! oh and i can't help you bout the peapods cos i don't have any. I'd give it a go - the worst thing that happens is a leak!

Kaz - I was going to ask you a moo goo question - but for the life of me I can't bloody remember what it was......

WOAB: Ecobubs
WOMB: Errr a fitted nappy & wool cover of some description

[maz]

Kaz - about $35 a yard (90cm) but I only buy my minkee from one person cause she's got the right goods ...havent ya Mel and honey thanks re the necklace...going to get one now.

Mel - wasnt going to buy it for covers...thinking more along the lines of making matching pram seat covers for the kids cause its universal AND cause I love cow things so much :big grin:

[melbel]

In that case...go for it!!!!! You could do covers for the carseats too!! and cushions and blankets and.......

[alioops]

Maz, they sound loverly!! I am thinking about getting a sheepskin for this bubba's capsule and pram. Something that is better than the fleece cushiony thing that is in Em's pram. Hope the IB turns up soon hun! Have you checked the drain hose on your WM?

Em has been back in cloth for a day, and her butt is healing nicely!!! The blistery spot is healing over and the bit that looked like a friction burn is gone! I love MCN.

WOSB: coral fleece CT with bamboo foldup and soaker
WOEB: Caramel dot minkee CT with bamboo foldup and soaker

[maz]

Hope the IB turns up soon hun! Have you checked the drain hose on your WM?

no but dont you dare laugh I checked the washing machine and there it was...fallen right behind the bastard of a thing. Ah you crack me up woman!

Sooooooooo ive got an itch...who's pg ??????

[melbel]

I dunno Maz...seen any black crows lately

[alioops]

Me Maz, Nah you already had the itch for me, must be for LP! Or MELBEL!!!! Good luck hun!!!

When I suggested it I was serious. Someone found a sock in the drain hose of their machine recently on BB, cant remember who though! Thankfully I havent lost anything in there.

[maz]

I dunno Maz...seen any black crows lately

sure have hon...blue eye'd bastard too when I came out of Bargain box fabric and again when I came home...hmmmmmm

Gigi - honey Im sorry if I missed your answer to my question but can you pm me had about the SB.....Ive got some here WITH OV in them (yes maz stuffed up..sorry) but their a medium

ETA - Ali - your ticker is out of date babe....yourve got the 19/10 on it

[alioops]

I am confused Maz, the 1 I can see says 20th of June and 6 weeks pg.

ETA, derr, RNW sale. Must see what we are doing sale wise ATM.

[Beatrix]

Maz- i just recently brought amber teething necklace of ebay for $25.. prob a bit late for you now...

gigi- bugger about the car, i hate sensless kids, as if they dont have anythign better to do.

Ali- yay on back in cloth (she means our MP sig)

I have a small confession to make. ATM we are in sposies, i just have so much going on. the house was painted yest and it is now being cleaned from top to bottm and will go up for sale in a week... so just dont have the motivation for cloth , i feel so bad..

[StrawberryMumma]

Hey guys
Hope it's okay to sneak into your thread for a sec!...I'm just after some advice about selling secondhand nappies as I read that quite a few of you do it...How do you work out a price? I have no idea. I'm getting rid of a night nappy that's in good nic so I don't want to totally give it away! but have no idea what to put on it
Any tips?

[Arimeh]

lee - when I listed mine, I just put on the very least amount I was willing to sell it for - anything above that is great!!! I think mine were about $5.00 cos I really didn't care - and some went for $10 or more. So not too bad.

[Kazbah]

Maz - well its not me, I was draped nekkid in bed, DH jumped in and fell asleep

WoHB - same as last time, he's still asleep

[*Efjay*]

Depends on the night nappy as in brand.
For me personally I wouldn't pay more then $25 for a 2nd hand nappy regardless of what it was. But for a night nappy, bamboo in good condition I may sneak in a few extra dollars but I figure if I can get one new for only $10 more then its not worth it getting them second hand KWIM
