My fingies hurt from putting them in boiling water!!!!! :doh: maz dumb arse!!!
WOMB - purple /blue WC nites.....green lime spider minkee cover to match
just got around to reading all the post...
need to get use to all the abbreviations here. Does wohb = what's on his bum?
abt the soap nuts...it could be real as there's a store which is doin a sale '2 for 1 500g' so yeh
newyz off to bed, back tomoro...bub's goin for 8wk check tomoro :)
Derr Maz - I really need to figure out where I packed my brain. Most of the boxes are empty now so it can only be in the Study unless I left it in Adelaide :lol:
Teruteru - Welcome to BB!! WOHB is What's On His/Her Butt, What's On (insert initial here) Butt is used when people have more than 1 child in nappies, unless the 2 in nappies have the same initials and then they sometimes use colours, or write His or Hers, and sometimes (as below) if both children have the same thing on T means Their. Oh and FYI, Purple is the colour the Mods use when moderating ;) If we see purple we worry that we have done something wrong ;)
Em has a NASTY nappy rash. Her poos are weird again, so something is disagreeing :( I think she managed to steal some normal yoghurt from DH this arvo or from Sarah yesterday. So she is all blistery and in sposies with a heap of zinc cream. Sarah is a bit sore too and they have had threadworm treatment today so I though it might be better for them to wear sposies tonight. It's depressing.
WOTB: Sposies :(
woohooo, i'm home sick with a blasted cold/sinus infection.
Pip slept close on 14 hours last night, woke up once at 4am for a drink, and back to sleep. Fever down again today, hit 39.6 again last night :(
Rhoda - great to see you in here!
WoHB - bbb with bb PUL
Rhoda - :welcome:
Ali - hope the rash clears up - damn rash :(
Kaz - hope you and Pip get better soon
Sammi - she's gorgeous (not clucky - not clucky)
I am tempted by the itti email too - but only cos I need more inserts to replace the shredded ones :( (Ange I will try to take a pic to let you know what I mean)
Well better go actually do something with my boy instead of just sitting here on my fat butt...
WOAB: Red GK (I lurrrve the red.. )
WOMB: Purple IB
good morning :D
i am sooo tempted by that IB email... best not or i shall be in BIG trouble!!!

Hi girls!!
Gigi - Yup, I'm back hon, thanks for asking!! We found a place & found out we got it yesterday, so WOOT!! It has a MASSIVE yard, is opposite the lake, has a greenhouse & a bath & KITCHEN BENCHES... sorry, a bit excited about that since we don't currently have any lol. It doesn't have an oven (there's always SOMETHING!!) but I'm looking into one of those bench top deal'es.
Punky is currently in Sposies. :( She was in sposies for the house hunting & I was sooooooo glad to get home & back in cloth but she got THE WORST NR ever!! Had to buy more sposies for zinc cream slathering. Poor little Punk. :(
The only thing I was tempted to do by the itti email was enter a photo for their gallery competition lol.
alioops- thx for the tips, looks like i better stick to black then :P
went to mchn for 2mths checkup today & the nurse was happy that bub was in cloth sayin hw it was better for the environment n pocket. so glad i decided to put him in cloth instead of sposie this morning
wohb: lavendar HH
Yes...and one accidently got sent through lol. glad you got kitchen benches babe...woo hoo I know the feeling to get them. Got your gorgeous card today to...onyl prob is I dont have a new address to send one back :doh::
Had the ever lovely glowing Ange here today. We did lunch and the kids played. Lulu is just the most gorgeous girl ever...even if her mummy worries about her 'attitude' tol much. Ah love ya Ange
If anyone wants recommendations for a night time nappy...get a Mirabia's from WAHMnaps. I got a custom one and **** they are ace. Velour innner and outter..great boosting system and withholds 14 hours of my little man's wee's.
We need a thumbs up smilie so I'll just have to use the nappy baby instead
I give it :nappy: :nappy: :nappy:
Ooh Maz - I'm glad you got it!! We'll be here until after xmas but you don't have to send a card, that's not why I send them!! :)
love the new Mat photo Maz!!!
w00t QM!!!! Photos please!
Us - well my cold is so bad I can't smell off milk or soiled bums. Pip just had a change before his nap, and has blisters now :( In the BP!
WoHB - starbumz - I'm very impressed with the absorbancy, so I've put Pip into it for his nap :)
oooo what to do?? I loaned a friend a BumGenius and a hemp booster to try out on her bub, and now she's returned it and it smells a whole lot like fabric softener... I said NO FABRIC SOFTENER OR NASTY ENZYME/OPTICAL BRIGHTENER DETERGENTS (yes, in capitals) but it smells all apple-y now. Strip-wash for one nappy? argh! I've just finished washing 2 days worth of nappies, and got the water bill... suggestions please?!
maz - goody goody gum-drops! I'm looking forward to stalking my posty for fluffy mail, and also he's a really lovely chap. I might even go get my WC from Michelle in person coz I'm going up that way soon. I hope they're as fab as everyone says coz the GNST was wet thru in 4 hours last night...
kaz - get well soon! Hope Pip's doing better now too.
do we have a shaz??
QM - I know exactly how exciting it is to finally have kitchen benches! Bliss! New place sounds lovely.
Rhoda - Hi!
Arimeh - that's so weird about the shredded boosters... washing machines do some pretty strange things. Mine adds lint to everything, hides it in corners of nappies and in toes of socks, but I don't think it enhances the absorbency of MCN, sadly. Have you asked if there's anything the IB makers can do?
WOHB: I think a BP. DP changed him and they're both napping together now... *awwww*
Im interested to know how much like a WC they look, from the pics they look the same.:

I have been turning prefolds into fitteds today.
SHIAT
I just did a big post and its gone!! dame it!!!
ok start again
WC v's Mirabia
FRONT closed
Both velour - snaps on WC futher apart then on M
OPEN WING
M only has one socket snap were WC has 2
OPEN BOTH WINGS
WC has 7 socket snaps - seem curved
M has 10 socket snaps - straight line
OPEN NAPPY
WC's booster snaps in the back
M's snaps in the front
WC has LONG fold up booster sewn under fleece booster and then another top booster
M's has trifold booster sewn under much longer and wider then WC's booster
WC's inner and boosters are lined in fleece
M's inner and booster lined in velour
Yes they are sort of simular at first glance but when you have them flat next to each other you can see the difference. M's are wider in the crutch and front panel then WC's.
Hmmm that was fun!!!
im gettin fluffys tonight!! finally managed to organise a time with the demonstrator: 4 magicalls :)
hope they r as good as ppl been sayin they r

Nana - to stripwash one or a few items, just do it by hand in a basin or trough. Use a tiny amount of GENTLE dishwashing liquid, squirt the amount that would cover a 20cent piece, on the bum genius shell, rub it together so you cover whole thing. Keep rinsing until NO MORE BUBBLES. Then wash as normal.
to save on water for washing nappies, we bought a washing machine that is 4.5 stars for water efficiency. it has a sensor to only use as much water as it needs to wash that particular size load. it's a front loader, takes a while, but uses very little water or electricity. (Our old machine died when bilby was two months old, so we HAD to buy a new machine sooner than expected).
WOTBB: minky pocket
welcome T :D
Kazbah, sorry you and Pip are feeling so crook :getbettersoon:
Maz - thanks for the photo of Ruby! Sorry to hear Sammi is having a hard time.
Alioops - what have you lost in the move? always something heh?
Queenie - WONDERFUL that you got the house you want! congrats!!!:dance:
Thanx Gigi! I knew you'd rescue me :) I do have a fairly water-efficient washing machine, only 3.5 stars tho, but I often bail out the bath water (soap-free) in buckets for pre-rinses and pump all the the grey-water into the yard. It's good exercise for the biceps too! I had an ace front loader but I gave it to my mum "to look after" when I moved overseas a few years ago... I guess she's still looking after it.
WOHB: BBB, with extra-extra boosters and a Tots Bots fleece cover. Hanging out for that sandman!
