Cloth Nappies #148.

TO much to catch up on again...dame it!!!!!

Gigi - I agree with you about the high cover aspect...we've been putting larges on Mateauz for night times becaus eof it...works so much better..and Ihave a few *cough* friends that I have made covers for that have asked for an extra 2 inches in the rise to compensate for bigger nappies.
Oh what kind of BP's have you given her babe?

Im covers in minkee fluff atm...had LOTS of fun and made some of the rainbow kind :) and oh um jingle bells also comes to mind :ROFL:

mateauz has 'old' blisters on his pee pee atm...they arent hurting him, not weeping but just look like old blisters. Thank god tooth number 2 is out and he's back to his normal happy self! I was sick of disgusting smelling wee nappy's and **** the pooh that comes out of him.

WOMB - purple BBH bamboo and a techno flame fleecie cover
WOVB - Strawberry shortcake HB yet again :)

i was informed today that urine is ALKALINE not ACIDIC. it's the AMONIA in urine that can cause nappy fabrics to degrade (if left in bucket too long), all this time i thought it was the ACIDITY that did it. And the ammonia apparently is what increases greatly around times of TEETHING etc. I think of it as the NAIL POLISH smell LOL.

Maz i think i have converted my friend to the IDEA of washable breastpads. She knows we use MCN but hasn't shown any interest and i don't want to risk our friendship by pushing things.

Sounds you like are in the festive spirit, Xmas in November heh? why not!

so Vy is only in NIGHT nappies now i guess? wow.

hope Matteauz heals up soon.

Isn't it sad when MCN is soooo freak like it would risk a friendship if you pushed it LOL

eta - Just looking on Ebay, BBH have their old magicals up for $15 with postage again. heaps there.

Wow Gigi, you are a wealth of information, whatever would we do without you? ;)
Thank you so much for your mammoth post it is very helpful! We boost on the outer of the nappy already and leg gape is usually okay i think it's just the rise... which is odd seeing as they almost still do up on the tightest snap setting and he isn't a tall boy.

Suse thanks for your PM darl - might wait til she is a little less busy IYKWIM and just look into some better covers for now. i expect he will be outwetting BBBs soon so I won't have much choice, but for now will just deal with it. Bear bottoms with MM fleece, i should be able to remember that.

Mel - thanks for the offer but we're pretty hot down here too at the moment, DS has been sleeping in nappies only :lol: You're a gem though, thank you!

I got fluffy mail today & woohooo on bargains. I got two second hand GK anytimes with boosters, and an IB Funked-up AIO for $15 each and they are all in as new condition. She also threw in a Sandman so I am thrilled.

DS has just started unco crawling instead of just pulling himself along. He only gets three of four 'steps' before he goes back to dragging himself but it's cute. He can also sit himself up from his tummy by himself and toothie number four should cut soon.

WOHB: IB AIO

Gigi - how about I send you a few BP's for your friend so she can have a play with them :)...and NO I dont wnat anything for them babe....just the simple pleasure knowing that another person is converted to not throwing more into our landfill is enough. Xmas sales started in october everywere else to hon...im late considering others.

FJ - will call you back, my dame brother has turned up now....stupid $^&*(^%) visitors!!!!!

CM - I love it when you buy something and get an extra freebee...makes the whole MCN world feel beautiful. I cant believe he is upto tooth number 4! **** mateuaz has just gotten his 2nd

and YAY for me...no fluffy mail but we got our Ambah teething necklace..looks very noice

WOMB - lime green IB

PP any fluffy mail your end?

Im a little worried, I had stuff coming from Brissy that was sent last wednesday that hasn't tured up, & I would have thought your fluff sent thursday(?) would have arrived today also but nothing....
I sure hope QLD AP is just a little slow.....

On other news.... been getting some extramly mild tightenings today. Nothing major, not painful at all, just notice my belly going tight.

WOHB - A WC day dreamer that seriously needs to be changed!

New belly shot https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...hp?photo=10416

Happy EDD FJ :D Hope you tightenings aren't too uncomfortable...unless they're doing something constructive ;)

na, thats all they are, tightenings. No pain no gain & they ain't painful LOL

Yeah well you be careful FJ, my tightenings didn't hurt, in fact, I wasn't even sure if they were even tightenings!
Listen to me warning anyone with a belly and an EDD - what am I, the village Tightening Naysayer?

Sposies and a fairly sick 7 month old here, plus a sick mum. I wanted to use cloth and Rans said don't be a hero Nelle, just use sposies and go to bed. He's alright, that husband of mine.

aw but nell, i will happily take on a surprise home birth lol

want some tips re: impromptu homebirths!! lol???

Nah no fluffy mail here FJ.
QLD mail is slow... hopefully tomorrow we will get our fluffy mail:)

hi everyone
got my 1st lot of fluffy mail today - i was so excited! I received my baby beehind fitted and AIO nappy... just have to wash them now!:dance:

Found out that the Happy Heinys I ordered dont come with inserts,:doh: so now have to look into getting these from somewhere... any suggestions?

FJ - hope the tightenings are doing something for you!

Nelle - hope you are feeling better soon

cookie - where did you find those great bargains? I can never seem to find a good bargain on nappies!

Ooooh Kellie somewhere had them on special recently (saw them in the last few days)... I'll see if I can find where... might have been The Nappy Bucket.

Specials came from a friend who started in cloth but got sick of it and gave up very quickly!

WOHB: IB Aqua AIO

ETA: It's Darlings Downunder that currently have the Microfibre Inserts on special. $5.50 each instead of $7 each

nothing further to report here LOL

Ooooh, FJ - yay on the tightenings!

Nelle - awwww on DH

Maz - which necklace did you get?

CM - want to borrow some larger sized snoozywuns?
Gigi - how bizarre. Maybe they were putting them in a "pink bin" ?

Ali - I send pockets, they're easy for them to use. And a big BBB wetbag.

Us - well, we ended up wearing the monkey starbumz and the giraffe minky and the dalmation MCN @ the zoo, had a few people smiling at him in his cute nappies!!!!

WoHB - bubblebubs night nappy with FJ cover. And longies ;) It got cold again!!

Just heads up, Im out all day today so my lack of posting isn't because im in labour. LOL
