I cant wait for my smiles Maz ;)
You'd better use it woman - it ain't gonna make you feel like sunshine and light just sitting in the bottle, is it? (And anyway, if you've just pulled your finger out of your bum it will need a darn good washing, hmmm?) :rofl::
Poor little man has had a rough morning. First he belts his head on a cupboard. Then he has a sneaky poo and has a butt so red that with his zebra nappy he looks like that old joke about the newspaper (what's black and white and read all over? *groan*). Then I was shutting the door to the spare room and he stuck his fingers in the hinge side and got his little fingers jammed (he's fine, but he was pretty unhappy about it until I stuck a boob in his mouth and he fell asleep)
Kat - its the sunrise gelato minkee with a reindeer on the bum and my first christmas 2008 on it...DEVINE!!!!!!!
Kitt3n - all sorted babe ;) start stalking
Suse - do I have to use it...it smells to pretty..adn im very jealous that you can stick a boob in his mouth and fix him that way....my boobs just sway in the breeze uslessly now :(
Ive had a migraine for the last 2 days.....stupid thing! hate them friggen hormonal crap!!!!
:
awwww i got the dark red one.... and it is DEVINE!!!!!! fits him beautifully :D must take a piccie of him in it :D

Sorry maz, the pot of gold cover had to go in the wash... but I swapped it for a blue BP and a jumpsuit that just screams "gay pride" according to a gay friend of mine!
Nana that pic is just gorgeous!!!
WOJB ~ blue IB
nana - half of bilby's wardrobe is rainbow or block bright colours that go great with rainbows! including her mcn LOL. this minute she's in a rainbow dip dyed tee and a cute tooshies bamboo delights that i dyed apple green (with her amber teething necklace on too). So she's often looking very happy and gay.
Maz, that parcel is ONLY about ten/'eleven months late! was meant to be a "welcome to the world M, and you're the big sis V" parcel back when M arrived!!! See how late i am! except i found a xmas cow at the last minute, so he just hopped in as well. YOu have no idea how long that parcel has been on my desk!!! it was growing barnacles!
i have at least five parcels i owe people RIGHT NOW and i feel so stuck in quicksand about them, can't rev myself up to finish organising them, but feel like i can't seal them yet. I seem to get stuck in "nothingness" or get heaps done in a spurt of energy.
Suse - i was wondering when E was going to be one, knew it had to be soon. So have all your southern state rellies come up to FNQ? any excuse to visit QLD heh? i bet E is being smoothered in kisses! Maybe having the rellies around is distracting him from niggly sore gums, who cares, it's workign ! all power to that!
Sammi - greenkids have just released a CITRUS SLUSHY gelato minky OSFA pocket - teh lovely oranges made me think of you and your *cough* little obsession.
they also have chrissie pockets for anyone after those. (and even chrissy wetbags).
Beatrix - woo hoo to teh bf-ing top sewing, great idea.
Katones and Maz - hope you post pics of your chrissy MCN - when MCN are dry of course and baby doesn't poop IMMED in them! give you a chance to get the camera out BEFORE they poop!
Gigi, I have the GK citrus slush minky. I loooove it. I'm a bit of a minky addict.
Nana, What a great photo. He's sooooo cute in his rainbow outfit.

has anyone else ordered an ANN 2009 calendar? has yours arrived yet?
(see Australian Nappy Network store on ozebaby site, if you don't know what i'm on about).
if you have, have a look at Miz February :cheer::confetti:
Maz honey - you don't have to use it if you don't want - you can just sniff it every now and again. But, it does have moisturising oils like sweet almond which can go rancid after a while, so you'd probably want to use it within about six months. I'll happily do you a refill if you run out babe ;) (Oh, and I'm sorry sweet, I didn't mean to make you jealous, but remember, your boobies got him where he is today, which is a bloody massively huge achievement. You deserve a gold medal for it).:
Suse - do I have to use it...it smells to pretty..adn im very jealous that you can stick a boob in his mouth and fix him that way....my boobs just sway in the breeze uslessly now
Gigi - E has been super psycho, running around like a nutter, crazy, happy-happy-joy-joy baby with all of the kisses and cuddles he's been getting. He actually was asleep within about 10 minutes of getting home tonight, hopefully he'll stay that way LOL.
Poor bubba has the reddest bum I've ever seen. 5 (count them) 5 poos today. The second one was the kicker, it must have been a super teething stealth poo because he was bright red all over when the nappy came off (and he'd only been in it for 15-20 minutes), and everytime we changed his bum it got redder and redder. He just wouldn't stop pooing. Every time we touched it or put cream on it he just howled, it obviously really stung, we've tried moo goo, bepanthen, and finally sudocream, as well as running around nude for an hour or so (which was very amusing).
So munchkin will undoubtedly be spending his birthday with a very red bum. :(
WOHB: nature baby care sposie and about a litre of sudocream.
it's after midenight, so
HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY EUAN!:loveshower::happybirthday::leap:
Happy Birthday Euan :dance:
Hope his newspaper butt is better for his big day!
Gigi is Bilby still the bubba on the dragonfly magic page? I actually got to see it last night for the first time...for some reason it wouldn't load for me before. I'll have to give her nappies a go when Bub needs some new ones cos I likes the look of them!
Oh and thanks for enabling my orange fetish too, wicked girl :lol: *hands in pockets and whistles as Sam backs out the door for a lookie...*
Sam- what are you doing up at 3am????? any good reason why??
Happy Birthday Euan!!
Ok to get these kids of to day then today i am spending the day sewing!!! Woot.. last night i made some skirts for the older two and a dress for Mj
Dress

on the nappy front i have had to finally get rid of my smalls... :(
WOAB: Dear Santa, Bizy Bees
WOMB: Dlish
Oh wise nappy ladies with Frontloader washing machines... what should I do..
:
Ok, Last night I went & bought a washingmachine. Now I think I should have got the other one LOL
What I got is a Frontload 7kg, has a tilted barrel, 1400RPM spin. Electrolux 4 star water rating.
What I am thinking I should have got is the Electolux 8kg frontloader that is 1000rpm spin & 4.5 star rating.
They both use 68 litres of water per load but I am thinking I will fit more into the 8kg one.
Can anyone tell me if I would fit a qeen size doona into the 7kg one? I am just thinking I have 6 people to wash for & kids who occasionally wet the bed....
Im thinking seems the items haven't been delivered (got a TV & Drier as well) that I could ring up & ask to swap the machine. Price was similar (the 8kg was actually cheaper).
But I layed in bed for about 2 hours last night (well more like at 2am) thinking I should have got the 8kg one....
What should I do??
Happy birthday Euan you gourgie little man!!! Ok Suse I promise to use it now...I'll put it in my bathroom otherwise Vy will use it up. ANd also to let you know...I have the pic you sent me ages ago in my kitchen so I can see it all the time :)
Gigi - Im waiting for some money then im going to buy the calender...woo hoo for Bilb's beig in there
Sammi - couldnt sleep again hey woman..not long now babe!
WTG Fiona on getting a new tv and washign machine..personally I would have gone bigger...ring them and change it while you still can
WTG Ness on your sewing...im jealous. I cant even go near my machines atm with my head :(
UM nappy news.......cant hang them out cause its raining here but hey im not complaining....cloths horsing it for a while instead. I so have to do a kull to Ness.....Im just to lazy atm...especially with this migraine that ive had for 4 days! Im over feeling like im gonna spew every 5 mins and AF is here with avengens!
Oh I bought some mama pads of ebay...they looked good and were a good price.
Kaz - I dreamt you were pg babe....hmmmmm
WOMB - last nights tea squished into a WC
mornign ladies!
Well Pip's in sposies :( as he now has an ear infection and that's meaning panadol.
All our MCN are washed and waiting for Dec 1 for the Christmas stuff!
Gigi - the nappies seem ok. The only one that didn't make it was a peapods cover I was washing b4 sending it away, but that's cruddy PUL anyhows and to be expected. Oh and starbumz monkey isn't white, its an off-white / cream colour ...
sammi - what a gorgeous belly!
Maz - thanks love, just have to get the BC removed ;)and get a bit of action!!! Hey, was it a girl or boy? Oh yeah, I can still comfort Pip with an empty boob here, it might work for you :)
Suse - mmmmmm I think we all have gay babies now! Happy birthday Euan!
Nana - what a gorgeous photo!!! He's so happy!!!!
Beatrix - the dress/skirts look lovely. How's the BF top coming along?
FJ - I have no idea about washing machines :( How's the weather up your way, as hideous as ours here?
Anyhwos, he's awake and crying, best go change his bum.
yep, gonna go in & swap it.
Weather OMG, last night we had a massive hail storm. Had rain pouring into the bedroom, had to move our bed etc.
Now the laundry has about 2 inches of water in it LOL
quick qn. what does panadol do to mcns?
i have never put DD in sposies when she has medicine... i havent noticed anything different with her mcns?
PP - panadol can sometimes make their wee change the colour of the nappy.....I had a nappy on Mateauz after I have him panadol one night and when I changed him in the morning the inside was black.
Kaz - mateauz doesnt want bb at all...he bites and pokes at it but nothing...and I still have milk :( oh the baby.....boy
Fiona - are you gonna prop up the new machine then if you get that much wate rin your laundry...friggen hell!
how soon after giving panadol does it come through into the nappies? DD has some panadol yesterday, and I havent noticed anything yet? Maybe I should use sposies today?
I just got some fluffy mail, well kind of anyway, I bought some new booster sets for my IB snap ins as they were BOGOF. It was still exciting to receive!
I need to look at getting something for my nappy bucket, I am washing every 2nd day, but when I open the lid it stinks! Almost makes me gag! Any suggestions?
Hope everyone is having a good day!
WOHB - purple IB
Kellie, some people don't notice any difference at all, others notice a grey stain. You don't need to use sposies, if you're concerned you might get a stain, just soak (or maybe even just rinse) your nappies til she's done with panadol.
WORB: Sposie, he's got diarrhea.
WOSB: Itti Bitti.
mum2S
my nappy bucket is the same. lol if it is open when DH walks in the laundry he yells... 'arrh my eyes are burning!!!! ' not sure what you can do to the nappys - i am the same though. wash every 2nd day :)
WOEB - BBB + PUL
WOAB - BBB + PUL
kellie i dont put the lid on my bucket! leave it to air and always have the laundry window open!!
we havent had panadol stains for a while here..mmmmm... not sure why!!
FJ i would have gottne the larger machine too!
wohb BBB and shorties
Kellie, there have been a few good suggestions from the ladies here for smelly nappy buckets:
- rinsing or little squirting your nappies before dry pailing them (the wet ones as well as the dirty ones)
- making a "hanger" of some fabric or old breast pad and hanging it off the handle and into the bucket after putting quite a few drops of your favourite essential oil on it
- adding baking soda after each nappy. didn't work for me, though.
- holding your breath when opening the bucket
- if all else fails: wash more frequently. ie. every day
- ooooh, yeah, and keep your nappy bucket out of the sun! sounds like a no-brainer, but i like to leave my laundry door (the one that goes into the back yard) open for ventilation and the other day, the afternoon sun was cooking the contents of the nappy bucket. enough said...
Hope you find something that helps. It's pretty rank, isn't it...
Happy birthday, Euan!!! Hope your bum doesn't trouble you too much on your special day.
Sa?a
PP, I did try going topless (on my nappy bucket) once, but I found the whole laundry reeked... I always leave my widow open, but that didn't seem to make much difference... :-(
Sa?a
:spit: That's my method!:
- holding your breath when opening the bucket
Thanks everyone for thinking of Euan on his birthday!! So far he's having a great birthday, he got a new toy which he tried to eat and then bash together, and now he's having a sleep. And soon we'll go up to the house my family are at and he'll run around like a nutter again.
But he has not yet had a cloth nappy on his bum today, but next change he will be back in cloth (because I have run out of sposies LOL and I really don't want to buy more). His bum was looking heaps better this morning after a night slathered in sudocream, but then after his shower he was looking really red again. It's drying up, so hopefully it will continue to improve, but I am actually wondering whether he is reacting to the moo goo - I used a tiny bit of the milk wash on his bum this morning and that's when he flared up, yesterday when I put the cream on his bum the rash was worse when next I changed him (although most of those times he'd also had a poo), but when I did a patch test on him (on a non-rashy part) he was fine. So it's a bit hard to tell. I really hope that he's not reacting to it, because I so want to use it on him - I really hate using sudocream because it is just a nightmare to use with cloth, but it seems that it is what works best on E's butt. But once his bum is cleared up I'll try the moo goo again.
Ness - good sewing there!!! I love that fabric!
Ooops, gotta go, the birthday boy's awake!! Mwahs to all!
happy birthday euan!!!
Happy birthday E (happy birthing day Suse) *mwah* hope your bottom gets better.
xx
(At work, quick pop in - waves to ALL!!)
happy birthday Euan! :)
Well now i have cotton bp's soaked in eucylyptus and rose oil hanging from all my nappy buckets (yes i have more than one! one in laundry for wee and one in toliet for poos).
Does anyone wet with water their wet only nappies then dry pail? i was just reading some info sheets and they said to do this before dry pailing?
Time for a new thread HERE
