Kitten - im lazy....I always leave my IB's snap in boosters in...only prob is then drying them....with the pre wash...are you soaking them at all?
Kat - postage is very slowwwwwwwwww atm. Im waiting form a package been sent express yesterday and it didnt arrive today :( but material that was sent last friday from Brisbane turned up today.
I feel jetlagged...bllllllllllllaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhh
WOMB - sopping wet black IB soon to be a cow bubble bubs
Anna - Yayyyyyyyyyyy how EXCITING for you!!!!!!! :leap: I love it when my sister or SIL are pregnant - someone else to go through all the discomfort and I get to hold a gorgeous baby at the end of it - without going through any pain - and handing it back when they cry.. lol
Cat - I don't think that will ruin your nappies washing them that way. Sometimes I do a load at night - then don't hang it out till the next arvo - usually I just do another quick rinse or something if that happens.
Got another 3 buckets of nappies to wash today actually - but I'm at work.. haha!!!! Not going to tell DH how to do it - we're going to try to do it with no washing liquid....
Oooh and I got sick of rinsing every nappy with the little squirt (trying to stop the shredding problem) so we put the wee ones in the shower with us of a night time and we halve the amount and both do an even number of wee nappies.. in the shower.. pmsl... better than bending over the toilet!!!!
WOA & M B: no freakin idea.. they are at home with daddy
Well last night Ethan survived another night 730pm - 6am in a bamboo boosted IB :)
( i took the hemp trifold out and replaced with 9 layers of bamboo trifold)
and his purple longies!
yayayayayayay... so proud to have 2 cloth nights....
might try the GNST tonight... will see if it is too big on him still
How was your time away maz?
Kat - how is the feeding going?
Mel - whats shredding?
I have nappies onthe clothes horse too... wet though ... so no need to fold yet! ;:P
WOAB - SNow leopard Bubblebubs
WOEB - Green BG
feeding...hmmmm we have good feeds and we have shiat feeds!!!! doesn't help that he is sick :( my poor little man.
he just pooed before (he hadn't been for 2 days!!) poor little man...BUT luckily i saw the start of the grunts and let him poo happily with no nappy on well 1/2 on (sorry girls TMI i know..but i was soo happy he pooed)
PP - my itti boosters have been shredding, also had a cute tooshies booster shred.. uh.. one of my wild childs (noo!!) seems to be starting to get thin and holey lookin...
drama drama drama :rolleyes:
poor little mite - i hope he gets better soon kat!
mel - ooooh.... i dont LS my wet ones... i just dry pail them. i do think about it but nah couldnt be bothered lol. Just the pooey ones (although they are drastically decreasing... POO POO IN THE POTTY! this morning yayayayayay)
pp- i have only been squirting the pooey ones too. ethan is so cute in those longies!
maz - nah i don't soak them, just LS if needed and then into the bucket.
mel - thanks, i hope it will be ok, just wondering if saving on elect. will damage the nappies i guess......
wohb - green IB, soon to be.... havent decided yet!
soooo...NOT rinsing wet nappies isn't going to hurt them?? cos SOMETIMES i rinse them and most of the time i don't.... DEFINATLY rinse pooey ones....although after that last poo..it would have just rolled off...
*sigh* when will nappies learn to fold themselves? Kat - I can identify with the lack of motivation to fold - I am folding nappies in between sentences. As you can imagine, it is going slowly... :p
PP - congrats on two nights in cloth! WOOT!
Anna - congrats to your little sis! It sounds like she's got a great support in her big sister.
Mel honey - I am so feeling your shredding pain. I love my Bamboozles, but they are falling apart on me. And the lint is bugging me to tears. I put a black teeshirt in the wash with the nappies (:doh:) and it is now grey and furry. Hey, those of you with GKs, do you find that the inserts lint up badly? Maybe it's my GKs as well? I put the inserts in a wash bag today, but (double :doh:) forgot to put the bamboozles in one too, so I can't work out whether it's the bamboozles that are linting, or whether it's the GKs and the wash bag doesn't keep the lint out. Who would have thunk that washing nappies was such a science? :rolleyes:
Well, I think I have just funded a couple of new nappies. I have a rule atm that I can't buy anything unless I sell something, and it looks like I have just sold something. Yay! Now, what to buy? :think:
Oops, it awakes, must go...
WOHB: Purple minky WC Daydreamer
Suse - nah no linting here with GK? They are all still in perfect condition (yay!!)
And how exciting - something new!!!! woooohooo!!!!!
Kat - no its usually fine to dry pail them, but I guess my kids have toxic wees or something and are burning through the bamboo. So I've been advised to rinse - and rinse we are!!!!! Just like stomping on grapes in a barrel - except its ****y nappies in the shower.. pmsl..
Suse i folded all mine :p BUT they are now sitting on the change table :(
I need to fold ours today too. DH put them in the dryer yesterday even though I told him they will be dry before we use them again if he hangs them up :rolleyes: I think he likes them to be fluffy.
I have a little non nappy woohoo. After DH's accident on Sunday, The car got towed to the holding yard and by closing time yesterday it was at the crash repairer and the insurance company said we should have it back when we get back from our holidays!! I have uploaded pics of the damage to the gallery. I am very happy that they are getting on top of it really fast!!
I had better go do some more pack for tomorrow!!
hmmmmm i just bought another fleece cover :D techno flame :D wink wink Maz...
can't wait for it too arrive....
WOJB ~ FJ NB Fitted / Maz fleece cover
Just came in to quickly say
WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I got my bling today, and my other embroidered nappy AND my fitted! WOOT WOOT! Think I was dreaming when I thought his cow s/m would fit... sigh... have to wait till he wakes to see but looks like it will have to be sold on :(:(:(
Mel let me know if don't fit :)
I know of a couple of shops in bris vegas that sell iron on bling. It is designed to be washed and worn and I am pretty sure you can get individual letters as well as pictures of animals or planes, those sorts of things. They are not too expensive and I think i will try and do something on one of my covers.
These places also sell the individual colored crystals if you were game enough to try doing some glueing.
only problem with iron on bling is that its to be ironed onto minkee and that just dont mish well with a hot iron :(. Just becareful using an iron on anything polyester
Im so excited...our Christmas starts tomorrow so my little tubber is going to be wearing his christmas fluffy finest :)
ohooh AND we got our accomadation in QLD sorted....we're staying at Cedar lake country resort..thanks to Jed's wonderful parents who gave us a week fotheir time share :)....9 months to go..just like a pg
WOMB - WC night nappy and zebra minkee cover
WOVB - lilac IB
I was wondering if minkie was iron friendly. Next time I go and get crystals, I will have a look at my attachment options.
If the cedar lake you are staying at is at advancetown, it is just around the corner from me.
