Cloth Nappies #152.

falguni -

I presume you were the dark haired lady with the gorgeous little bub?

---

yes, that's me... (the kid's not so gorgeous right now with pumpkin mashed into his ears. I swear I didn't put it there!). Told ya I was shy, but didn't mention I'd be ridiculously late. We had the Morning From Hell...

Kaz - thanks for not sharing your germies, but it's a shame you couldn't make it.

missymoo - um, 110 nappies? ..... that's the sound of me going green with envy. But I have no room for that many... or do I? The spare room's not being used right now... heheheh...

I'm still waiting patiently for my wildchild night nappies. Sadly the machine that Michelle uses to make them is missing some of its bits and is in need of a transplant, but donors are hard to find :)

WOHB: pumpkin

I don't think I really have much nappy related news!

Now that I'm officially preggo with #2 though I get to go up into the attic and get down all the newborn nappies and covers and drool over them. YEAH!!

I don't think DS needs any new nappies - though I love drooling over new ones - especially since I'm going to make a SERIOUS attempt at potty training after the new year!

Sorry to hear people are having issues with DP/DH putting poo nappies in the bucket without rinsing them - my DH is actually better at rinsing them then I am!

I'm feeling REALLY tired today - not getting much uninterrupted sleep at night - so I'm thinking of going to bed at 9:30pm tonight!

WOHB: BBH hemp soon to be replaced with a BBH bamboo and a Tots Bots Fleece cover for bedtime

Ali - my DP is working this weekend - so I'm bored. I forget other people's DPs/Hs have weekends off.

OK - the washing machine thing is a mystery - I asked DP about it and he did LS this morning's nappy (he's actually very good). Maybe Euan has figured out how to open the laundry door, open the washing machine, climb inside, take of his nappy and have a poo in the machine, climb back out, shut the washing machine, shut the laundry door and put his nappy back on... Hey, it's possible...

Kaz - eep on the shedding willy. That's gotta be a bit freaky. Does it appear painful, or is it just disturbing?

Nelle - I think I've worked out the Bamboozle problem. A couple of weeks ago after swimming lessons I'd forgotten to take a bag for the wet swimmers, and chucked them in the wet bag with the nappy he'd worn to swimming (which I think was the Bamboozle). I forgot to put it all straight in the machine when I got home so it was sitting amongst chlorine soaked stuff for a couple of hours, that could have done it :rolleyes: :doh: That'll learn me.

WOHB: BP

ETA: Rhyb - you gave your DP a very good pressie already - he's called Aiden ;). That's some Christmas stash though. Euan's getting squat - he got enough for his birthday.

is ANYONE here waiting patiently for the WC stocking in 19 minutes?
Can you tell I am?? :lol:

I have been looking.... and waiting patiently

oooh tell me which ones you like?

so far.. the S/M cow one.... BUT honestly i like em all :D

BUT i really want a night nappy :(

:( haven't used a WCNN so don't know what they are like.
I LOVE that blue cow!! Too small here though, he is in a m/l already! :( Ashton has the green cow one :) And a spider, pea**** and elephant lol
Eying off the frog... wonder if I can be fast enough...

oh oh oh oh 2 minutes :D:D:D:D

i like the frog one aswell!! very cute...

bah service unavailable :(

i know and i now have an awake bubba!!! and hubby is on the fone with work probs!!!! and Jack has pee'd right through his clothes!!!

lol probably going into overload! 42 shoppers :lol: Go Michelle haha

damn it how come you can get in there :(

it went mental... over sold nappies too :( Poor Michelle!
I got 3 nappies though so I am happy :D

i got none :( Probably for the best (on the hip pocket lol)

I need more night nappies too.

Whats on Iains butt? Abby grow sleeptimes Bamboo velour. Finally found a system that allows for one nappy change over night rather then 50 LOL!

hi girls
well tonight i am trying DS in cloth over night (well until the 2am wake up feed).
I have put him in a cute tooshies bamboo delight with PUl cover...

i worked out it is 8 layers bamboo so hoping it will last the distance!

thats what we use mostly PP :)

pp - hopefully that combo works well tonight.

rhyb - xmas lights, umm, not sure where they are, which area do you live in? Are you north side?

suse - my dh only gets Sunday's off each week, so that's our 'weekend'.
As for your theory, Nina can do that! (but she is over 2 now lol). When she was in nappies, she could take it off, open the laundry door, put it in the laundry basket or the washing machine, and close the laundry door. She's now going through a phase of taking her undies off each time she does a wee and putting them in the nappy bucket. She thinks that because I put Emily's nappy in there after a wee or poo, her undies should go in there too :rolleyes: So as you can imagine we go through a lot of pairs of undies each day, but she never has any wet ones!

rhyb/suse - did any of you go to the christmas carrolls tonight? I took Nina along with my mum & dad. It wasn't too bad. Took 2 hours for Santa to arrive though. So as soon as he arrived, we left.

Nappy news, got none unfortunately. Haven't bought any new nappies for ages, but just don't need them ATM. I have a christmas cover for Emily which I used the other day, but she threw up all over it 2 minutes after I put it on. So I'll put it on her again on Christmas day I think. She has a pretty Christmas outfit to wear as well.

Ali - how about a nice frilly white cover? mmmm she'll be a gorgeous angel!

Suse - not painful, just ... peeling. And DH is no use, he says he doesn't have one of those! *rolls eyes* And I've slathered it in moogoo :)

Whoever asked about the WiddleWuns - i've had no problems with them? I've one with a loose thread in the overlocked edge, but that one's been in use now for about 4 months I think and through the machine/dryer after every use. The snoozywuns do curl a little but it works well I think when the double thingy that the quadruple fold lies inside sorta curls around it, keeps it all together. If anything, I'd say it'd need 3 snaps not 2 on the wings, as Pip is hovering in between mediums & larges and am getting some wing droop on the larges?

NaNa awwwwwww Falguni awwwwww I was so looking forward to it, I was even going to bring my Dad who's down here from Brissie for this past week! But seriousky, this was a horrid cold virus and apart from a couple of people at work, I wouldn't wish it on anyone ...

WoHB - bubblebubs night nappy (whatever brand that is) with a FJ cover.

Kaz - I dont have many covers, most of our nappies are AIOs. She was in a long enough skirt to not show her nappy anyway and looked so cute with her wings on. DH only took 1 photo though coz he didn;t hold the button down long enough and I was up the front trying to get her to stay on stage. She did really well and I am so proud of her!! She even did the actions to the songs!!

Missy Moo - does that make it 113 nappies now? Leave some for those of us with smaller stashes!! :p I need lots more nappies, NBs go through lots and I will still have at least 1 of the girls in nappies!

Suse - I will probably lose track of the days when DH is away, so I can pull that excuse in Feb ;)

I loaned a friend most of our smaller nappies today, and my Maz BPs. She already likes the BPs!! I dont think her DS will be in the nappies for long. He is HUGE!! at 7 weeks he is 6kg!! I am going to lano a soaker and let her see if it fits him too. He is soooooooo chubby!!

WOEB: Whatever DH put on her, unless he didn't change her before bed :wall: in which case it would be CT Dude couture
WOSB: Green camo CT with extra boosting

I think more Ali ... :lol: I might have 'forgotten' about a few I had coming and also 'forgotten' about a couple on my baby bag when I took the pics haha
Your friends baby sounds like my Ashton! He was 5kg born, 6kg at 3 weeks, 7kg at 2 months and at 3 months now he is 8kg haha Nothing wrong with a chubby bubba!
Can't believe he is 3 months today! Where does the time go?

:

---

He is HUGE!! at 7 weeks he is 6kg!!

---

:redface: Iain wouldn't be far behind & he is 4 weeks today.

Well the Cute Tooshies lasted 830-230 . granted it was soaked but no leaks!!! Wouldnt hurt to boost with another trifold i guess when he is sleeping right through.

I am wondering if i should more now... lol i guess they are good for DS as he is a tummy sleeper and so no snaps on his belly.....

NOt game to try wool yet as i am still worried about compression leaks are there any with side snaps?

FJ - are you using wool?
Missy - i saw your cloth bums in the gallery gorgeous!

i have used soakers overnight the last 2 or 3 nights. Just made sure he was well boostered. been ok so far

Ah god you girls talk alot of POOH!!! :ROFL:

PP - I am so glad that you finally foudn something that is workign for ya babe!!! WOO HOOO

Kaz - Ive got a widdlesones night nappy and it rocks!!!!

OH shiat did I miss the WC stocking!!! :doh: I wanted the dame cow one too!!!!

I have no idea what else I was gonna say...house full of sick kids this end. Older 2 boys have got sore throats and temps...I can hear Vy coughing her lungs up and Mateauz I think has conjuntivitis. He slept until 10am yesterday, then went back down at 1om woke at 5pm and went back to sleep at 9pm and is still asleep. Defently sick boy. Just hope it all goes away by friday for Nikoalus' Baptism.

Hmmm what nappy to put on Mateauz for that day??? hmmmmmm

OH and for those who dont know...Ive got a special Facebook page now ;)

WOMB - WC nights and chocolate eclair minkee cover

i put Jack to bed last night in cloth for the first time!!

I used a BBH bamboo with the long booster and i used the short one as well.. and a BBH PUL cover...NO leaks and he lasted til 6.15 this morning when i changed him :D
So now..i am on the lookout for a good night nappy :D

FJ..your NB nappies what kgs do they fit up til??

LOL are they not fitting? Its justa guess really. Everyone seems to have a huge range of diffence with how long they fit for. Im just guessing off Iain who would be 5kgs & I think I can get a little longer out of them but not sure really.
