[rhyb]

Yea Beatrix thats what I was suss on they joined today I jumped on it and figured hey if it doesnt pan out no big loss I prefer to buy through people with a good rep but I did that recently sent em the money and still no word (2 weeks and counting )
Ill PM you the link

[~kellie~]

Rhyb - that sounds like a great deal, as you said, even if it doesnt work out, its only $10! Talk about being in the right place at the right time!

Mel - no worries on the fluff, when you get to it its fine

Maz - great pic!

I only had 1 clean nappy today and it wouldnt fit under the skinny jeans that DD was wearing, but I really wanted her to wear her skinny jeans cause they are so cute, so we had to put a sposie on instead! So hopefully tomorrow we will be in cloth all day, if my other nappies dry.

For those that have bought IB's - how long do they normally take to deliver? I want some fluffy mail!

[Beatrix]

looks lagit ...

but for some reason i think its meant to have a extra 0... lol.. like 100.00 instead of 10..


i hope she honors it..

[rhyb]

hey either way im happy im assuming its been on there for at least 6 hours wouldnt she notice such a massive typo??

[Beatrix]

yep was a great catch!!!

[Arimeh]

ooo that is a great catch ... hope she didn't make a typo - I'd be so if it was me making a typo like that!! lol

Kellie - thanks i still didn't post it today - was running late for work this morning and forgot to grab it

Tomorrow - I promise

What do you guys think is a good price for 2nd hand covers? I wouldn't have a clue...

[rhyb]

Hey i just noticed your DDs name is Teleah My 11yr old sisters name is Tealah
Ummmm something nappy related DS has figured out how to undo all his velcro nappies! Hes too smart for his own good!!

Depends what kind of covers they are....

[Arimeh]

rhyb - ummm... I've got a few bummis... swaddlebees.... Baby beehinds....umm... thats all I can remember off the top of my head (I've got wayyyyy too many covers.. lol)

[PinkPalace]

perhaps $6-8 depending on brand an condition mel?

[Beatrix]

Arimeh- i would sy a starting price bid wise aroun $8 maybe?

Rhyb- how do you pronouce you sisters name? I say Tee-leah. forever have to correct people who say ta-leah..

[rhyb]

Beatrix- Teal-ah she got the funky name of the lot
Arimeh- I agree with them decent pricing without ripping yourself off

[Arimeh]

ok thanks guys. Of course, they are all in perfect conditions - they're mine!!!

Plus since I don't like using them - they just sit there.. lol

[Gigi]

Arimeh - re selling your PUL covers
i would put the condition of them, how old, used in small or large rotation, condition of elastic, condition of closures, note any stains, marks, rips etc.

i'd put the weight ranges of them in your ad, many people don't bother to look up brand new item to work out sizing - but they do need to know this, so you might appeal to more people if you put the weight ranges of the covers.

WOTBB: night nappy combo that dh put on her - we don't have wet cot linen in the morning, so i think dh is pretty spot on about putting her nappies on correctly.

FJ - that's great, going out in MCN with Iain, and all smooth sailing. anyone would think you'd used MCN before LOL. face it baby, you're a star! only MCN virgins like me, get poop leaks for the first week, until dunderhead-me was shown how to do up the covers correctly!

Arimeh, i reckon part of the MCN journey is sorting the wheat from the chaff. Clearly, the Motherease covers rock your world, ergo, they are YOUR 'wheat'. too easy. it's quite "cleansing" to declutter your stash, of "that don't work for us" bits. although some, i keep in a "holding cell" JIC. or for certain situations. i have some MCN that arent' that great a fit for bilbs on a daily basis, but because of the fabric they're made out of, would be great if she got gastro. So i have a standby gastro stash.

we started off with bamboo terry flats. i was a big flop at flats, took some hilarious shots of my attempts!! They all went to flat heaven and got reincarnated as boosters, inserts etc. fabric too nice not to be used.

and yes ali, you can use any cover over flats, but usually a bigger size, to cope with the extra bulk. i woulnd't necessarily put leg gusset covers in that category though, cos they are designed to be used with PREFOLDS not flats. but maybe someone HAS used leg gusset covers with flats and can update me (cos i'm just theorising, don't know for sure, to be sure - imagine irish accent).

ahhh but i have learnt from your mistakes so its a good thing you had a few misshaps to start with.

[Beatrix]

OMG i am well and truly sick of spiders who seem to think that my MCN make a lovely home...

this morning pulled out a BP for Annika and in it a huge huntsman.. FFS i had poor Mj in my arms who almost got thrown accrosss the room and there me jumping around like a looney.. i still feel sick about it now...

[*Efjay*]

not good! where do you keep them? Maybe you could pop them all in a basket with a lid or something?

[Beatrix]

i keep them in a cubboard in one of those canvas type stackers...

im literally terrified now to get a new nappy out and open it, its making me feel so ill..


BTW what should i no do with a BP insert umm like soaked in fly spray im thinking of a hot strip wash?

[Visitor7]

nessa - can you get your house sprayed for spiders or something? I probably would have thrown Emily if that had been me!

I'm sick of this child of mine doing poos in the middle of the night We're going through 2-3 nappies overnight as she keeps pooing. I'm thinking it's the formula.

rhyb - that was a fantastic score!
