    Ali - I have a snap press so no worries! I don't have a huge array of colours but have some basics.

    Anna - we used a pad fold for out prefolds, basically in thirds. The offer is there if you want to see some in real life, I even have a few you can try if you like we don't use them so much any more.

    PP - I know what you mean, I have a Baby Kanga here waiting for me to be game enough to actually undo the stiching. I think Bubblebubs do floating elastic, which is basically tacked at one end and then the other so should be easy once you find where to unpick from. Have you tried contacting bubblebubs to see if they can give you a starting point. I think you need swimmers elastic too it's more durable I think

    Sounds like a plan Sarah!

    Dh better take away my atm cards, another sale means more MCNs to buy

    Ali - seriously how can you be cold! Are you in the same town as me????? I'm sure I have some black ones will have to check. I tink I have some gluten free dairy free recipes here somewhere will have a look for you.

    Anna - technically I'm not the Nappy Bucket anymore ( I sold the business in June) but the new owner is still in Townsville - so no postage costs! I am just waiting for the market place membership to expire. Did you know Baby Beehinds is in town also? In garbutt. And cuddles in cloth and Ali of course there are heaps of us in town!!!!

    Sarah - The AC was on for a few hours blowing right on me. Inside my house it was 22 degs and has now climbed to 24 since turning it off. At around 23 I start to get cold. Maybe you should come over and cool off? You know I always have them on. The girls have theirs on overnight but not on extreme cooling, just enough to be comfy overnight and in the morning.

    Anna - Going by LMP it is 13 weeks today, but going by O it is 13 weeks on Saturday. Janine is happy to go with my O related EDD which I am happy about!! Seriously how fast are these 2 coming!! Time is flying!! I have warned DH about what you said about Janine, He is half expecting someone with spiky pink hair and tats and piercings everywhere!! I just said she was a bit punk, and he would not associate her with Nurse the first time he sees her!!

    Nappy related.... ummmm.... I need to soak some of my boosters in nappy san. they are panadol grey. So to do that I would nappysan then strip wash?

    Sarah, it is a black one. I have both pieces of it sitting on the table. I have to drop by your place soon with some stuff for you anyway so once I have washed the nappy I will call you and make sure I can pop in, and I will make sure the gate is shut properly!

    Maz - I found that verse!! I am so happy I did coz it said exactly what I wanted to say!! I think you will cack yourself laughing at the number of stamps on it coz it was 532 grams, so twice as much as posting 500 grams or less The entire top of the envelope is almost covered in stamps!!

    I think I will try cotton prefolds with a bamboo booster in the middle on Em tomorrow. Surely she shouldn't react to cotton. I went grocery shopping tonight and nearly bought some gluten free bread for her, But it had dairy in it If she is reacting to wheat this is going to be harder than I first thought!! I might need a breadmaker!

    Bought some eco-sposies for our trip tonight too. I hope mum lets me put them in their compost bin for the worms to destroy. Dad might need convincing though

    Anyway I am getting cold so I had better go and turn the AC off!
