Cloth Nappies #148.

[Arimeh]

i didnt know chilcare centres allowed cloth nappies anymore? which is odd in itself coz hello what did they use before disposables?? mine doesnt, they have to be sent in a disposable and will only use disposables until they go home

So far all four centres I have been with (yes we get around ) are all ecstatic to use cloth as we are the only family that do. The girls there love them!!! (And for the record, they NEVER dispose of the poo down the toilet, they fold it up in the nappy for me to deal with at home.. really.. is it that difficult to turn around and flick it into the toilet? anyhoooo)

Ali - woohoo on the healthy parasite With a heartbeat like that, I'm gonna say BOY for you honey.

Nettie - I use BumG's (and some Happy's if we run out) for DS - and will be using BumG's and MD's for DD - starting Monday

WOTB's: night nappys - BBB for her, GK Minky for him.

They're not allowed Mel. (A friend of mine runs a FDC and she told me). It's an odd rule that in many ways makes no sense, but it's a rule.

Sorry, that's all I've got tnight... off to beddybyes. Will BBL for proper hellos. Mwahs...

Seriously??? wow there ya go!! learn xomething new everyday!!! So what do they do with the poop in sposies?

I didn't know it was a rule cos there was one occasion that a nappy was sent home with a skiddy so obviosky someone had disposed of the poo!! Whoops - and here I was thinking they were just lazy!!! My bad....

It's funny because we know they wouldn't think twice about just binning a disposable - hardly anyone knows you're supposed to scrape a sposie too, except for all us clothies ...

Night nappies - (Suse & Gigi - you both use the WKN - I'm just curious, do you boost with anything extra? Fleece Covers work okay?)
Does anyone have tummy sleepers that wet through their sheets everynight? I'm starting to think we might go back to disposables for night nappies because we really can't afford longies/shorties/soakers at the moment and he is wetting through soo often I am sick of changing sheets, airing the lambskin and having mine and or his bed smelling like wee.
We have been using
BBB's
WKNightz
Snoozywuns
Cute Tooshie
With extra BB Trifold, Maz-a-licious Booster, or 2 x mini Microfibre inserts. & Maz-a-licious minkee/fleecies.
I need to go up a cover size (I know that is half the tummy wetting problem becuase the cover rise is too short), but does anyone have any recommendations for high rise night nappies? The best I have so far is using a HH or BumG or largest setting with extra stuffing and he always comes out more dry in the morning.

Argh what a convoluted ramble, if anyone can make sense of that would be much appreciated, I don't even know what I was trying to get at anymore.

AJ - what size is he? i could send you DS's longies to try over the snoozywun if you like? Always worked here - he is a tummy sleeper too. They are at the top of his cupboard at the moment cos its far too hot here for longies - he's in his shorties now.

Lemme know babe.

Hey Gigi - our bubs had matching bums last night! LOL!

Ash, I've PM'd you about night nappies, OK hon. But yeah, I think you'd do well do have something that works as a really harry highpants. The bear bottoms fleece covers are 300gsm MM Windpro, and have a rise that comes up to the armpits (almost). They are ace.

ETA: Mel - they just bin the poo with sposies. Dunno if they have an exemption from the rules re: waste disposal or whether it just gets 'ignored'.

WOHB: Dunno, daddy changed him and let me have a sleep in (love the man). He's now been having a nap for nearly two hours so I get to have a cup of tea in peace. I just checked - it's a BumG with a TotsBots cover - our new safeguard against the BumG leaks

We use all our nappies at daycare, either pockets or aio they are all made up so they all go on the same way anyway. We have always had a good reaction from childcare with nappies and they will usually rinse them and they have a little squirt for the poopy ones. I did get a phone call the other day asking if we could bring in a sealable nappy bucket as before that we had just been using our big swaddlebees wetbag. Apparently for accrediatation they needed to have a sealable nappy bucket. they all were gloves when changing nappies anyway so I don't see why they would have a problem with poo, after all they have to wipe it off the kids butt don't they? What's the difference?

Thanks for the info on the different websites Gigi I had a lady at reusable nappy week say she had been told by her daycare they wouldn't use cloth and I told her that I had seen you post links to some rules before that support cloth so off to check those out - Thanks
