Cloth Nappies #152.

[Visitor8]

Well let's see... Ashton is my first cloth bum. He was big when he was born at 11 pounds (5kg) so he went straight into small nappies.
First up we used mainly cute tooshies BD with a pul cover or woolies. Also BG osfm and BBH/BBB which we LOVED.
He then got a reaction to synthetic liners, mainly suedecloth, so we have had to resort to using just natural inners until I can sew up some cotton velour liners (sometime in the next 50 years) but have been slowly introducing microfleece liners which a lovely friend of ours Bec sent
Our favourites would be Wild Child bling, CTBD, BBB (our workhorse nappy) and the new minky magicalls (LUSH!) also Mirabai and Bisy Bee are right up there! IB D'lish are usually what we grab for a quick change, so soft!!
At the moment we have 110 nappies... not every brand but we are getting there. (I have a post in my blog with all the nappies lol)

I can't believe I didn't discover cloth for the first 2!!

OMG Mel... 110 nappies!!! I am super jealous!!! I luffs your ticker btw.

[suse]

Echo... echo... echo...

Where on earth is everyone today?

One of my Bamboozles is literally disintegrating. I've been getting insane lint on all of my nappies for the last couple of washes, and thought that I'd accidentally dropped a disposable wipe in the wash. I don't usually use them, so I couldn't think of any other reason why I'd all of a sudden start getting masses of lint. Anyway, I took a Bamboozle off the line today and no jokes, most of the terry has just vanished. It's not happening to any of the others, just the one, but it is absolutely useless now. How bizarre.

Oh, and I think that DP chucked a pooey nappy in the bucket this morning and forgot to LS it. I took all of the clean nappies out of the machine and found a little heap of sultanas and corn at the bottom of the machine. Eeeuuuw.

WOHB: Bamboozle and wool sugarpeas cover. About to get changed.

[NaNa]

ew, suse, thanks for sharing that! delightful.
I've been at the Melbourne Xmas meet-up, and I'm only here now coz I made DP hang the washing out so I could sit and veg for a minute. And it's weird to talk to yourself, apparently...
Shame about the bamboozle... I get lint on everything regardless. I swear my washing machine makes it and sticks it in the tabs of all my pocket nappies...

[suse]

ew, suse, thanks for sharing that! delightful.

It did make me wonder though, if corn and sultanas are just going to come out the other end whole, what is the point of feeding them to him?

And it's weird to talk to yourself, apparently...

Nah, talking to yourself is fine, it's when you answer that things start to get a bit kooky...

[NaNa]

yeah, I often talk to myself but when DP responds I have to tell him to stop eavesdropping....

[Nelle]

That's weird about the bamboozle! Maybe it sat in teething wee at the bottom of the bucket for awhile? Strange though.

Eww Suse. We had a laundry poop occasion as well, delightful dh had just chucked a runny poop in the laundry. No even trying to scrape or rinse. Just the whole thing, undiscovered in the laundry for a couple of days. I just threw it in the laundry trough and put a load of washing on, to let that rinse it first...then it was okay to deal with, but honestly! Husband? Brain?

Okay, I was going to type another cloth-related whinge about dh, but I think one's enough for today. Let it just be said that he is not in my brilliant books regarding housework currently. (To be fair, I'm not in his good books either. )

[christy]

I have a really gross story about sultanas.... I picked one up off a friends floor and... it was from the other end! My poor friend will never ever live that down!!

We've been out at a BB meet up today, it was nice, but exhausting... I'm a little bit burnt, and Matilda is WAY overstimulated, but other than that we are all good.

WOHB: BBB & PUL cover

[alioops]

We have found sultanas in the WM too Suse, yours is not the only guy that 'forgets' to squirt things Still not as bad as the maggots though

Em is back in cloth!! she is still a little rashy but not as bad as she was and I ran out of dispoable wipes so I decided just to put her back in cloth and see how she goes now.

I so should have gotten an Angel Christmas nappy. Sarah is an Angel in the sunday school Christmas play tonight. I had better go find a really pretty dress for her to wear!! I think she will wear a nappy with stars on it coz that is the most Christmassy we have.

Kaz - s for Pip. Hope it feels better soon. Try moisturising it.

Suse - It is the weekend, everyone is busy taking care of their DH/DP/Kids so we have a bit of a BB break on the weekend.

WOEB: MT AIO
WOSB: Groovy CT.

[Kazbah]

Erkkkk. Weird on the bamboozle!

110 nappies! OMG!!!

Well Pip's willy is shedding. Is this a standard boy thing? And when I say shedding, well, its like sunburn peel. Quite disturbing for me, and DH can't help me change a nappy without serious wincing ...

Wish we could have been at the meet, I had all my nappies all packed and ready to go

WoHB - BBB with BB PUL.

[christy]

oh Kaz!! What happened?

[Junglemum]

NaNa- sorry i didn't really 'meet' you today! I was the crazy preggo chick with blonde wavy hair. I presume you were the dark haired lady with the gorgeous little bub? Damn it.

Kaz and Maz- We missed you.

Kaz- What do you think of the quality of your widdlewuns? I am not 100% sold. It kinda looks like the bamboo on my booster has shrunk and it's all out of shape..... and the leg stitching is uneven, maybe i'm just fussy! Am i allowed to mention a brand on here?!

Hi missymoo- i think we have met on NC, i'm AngeA.

Christy- i busted DD eating a grape from the 'other' end!

Gigi- your lastest FB pics of Bilbs are just too cute, i love the one of her straddling the highchair!

WOHB? A night nappy i got off the lovely MAz, ummmmm has a wizard on the bum Maz??? With a Maz cover of course! lol

[maz]

At the moment we have 110 nappies... not every brand but we are getting there. (I have a post in my blog with all the nappies lol)
