i can't bring myself to leave three or four day's worth of washing to fold.

1. the unit is too tiny, there is nowhere to hide it in the meantime, no spare room, no spare cupboard, NOWHERE TO HIDE IT!
2. one wooden clothes horse is all i have to dry stuff on, everything, even the sheets
3. i'm so far behind with EVERYTHING else domestic - haven't really made meals for two years now, snacks don't count, so if i wasn't up to date (sort of) with the MCN, i wouldn't be up to date with ANYTHING
4. i'm thinking right about now, being obsessive compulsive about the MCN isn't such a bad thing, i need ONE thing to feel good about at least.
5. if i didn't keep up with the MCN, having only ONE child, i'm sure all you mummies with four kids would throw rotten tomatoes at me anyhoo!

Mummyto3 - dragonflymagik is a WAHM site, if you google that brand, you will find the site. I happen to have a child who really suits side snappers, and out of narrow and wide crotch brands, DFM is on the narrower side. So when i went looking for SS and narrow crotch, plus DFM use malden millls fleece for the outer, which i love, well, it ticked all the boxes for us. Plus it's a quicker drying one, you snap in a trifold, and a booster set up. Definately worth the money (for us).

Alioops - that's great that so many Townsville people use cloth, at least at home - better than not at all. Maybe they don't know about wetbags? and more compact MCN that the flats (i'm guessgin) they use at home?

Raven - thinking of you!

NaNa and Suse - i have no idea what the PMS and the nubmers mean - is this an MSN joke?

NaNa - i totally get teh "must be the RIGHT red" thing. i feel the same about purple. i have emailed WAHMS to make sure if a purple is a bluey violet purple or a pinky purple - colours vary so much on computer monitors. I once bought some fleece online, called ELECTRIC VIOLET, sold as a bright colour, it arrived, a deep plum purple, so dark it was almost black! nothing like the colour swatch online.

whoever asked about the belly belly gallery. i THOUGHT you had to be a Platinmum memeber to access it, but i was so wrong, anyone can upload photos. i discovered this last night, and have been busy making up for lost time LOL.

WOTBB: Kester Kovers AIO (another good night nappy, front snapper, very clever snaps design, Possum Pouches make and sell them). it's really an Ai2 with the snap in insert, but called an AIO.
