thanks Gigi - I've just bought a lilac mother ease one!
And Gigi you can come to Sydney on a bus trip holiday.... you have somewhere to stay ;) Food to eat and beds to sleep in!!!
Anna I haven't been too happy with the newborn magicalls but I find the smalls to be fine. I think it's because there isn't much of a soaker in them. Ruby is 3.6ish kilos and the small is a tad big on her but not for much longer I reccon.
I haven't got the newer haute pocket but had an older style one. It was fine on my broad little fella but he ended up being too big in the rise for it, though there was plenty of room around the middle.
Gigi from my observations there are narrow crotched nappies and there are nappies that are narrow in the crotch and the seat if that makes sense. Ittis are narrow in the crotch but have a wider seat than swaddlebees for example which is why I could use ittis but not sb's on Caleb ;)
:hug: for you too hun!
Rhoda there are a couple of nappies that shorten down to CT so tell us in longhand :)
WORB: itti bitti boo and maz cover
WOCB: air!
Gigi - I am so sorry its getting to that point for you babe.....Nessa had given you some good leads babe...and im sure she wont care if you ring her for any advice. You have to do for you and Bilby hon...not him!

Gigi hugs hun, didn't realise things were bad for you :( Best to do what's best for you and Bilby, it is an adjustment but you CAN do it. I have been doing it for 2 years now :)

Missmoo - Ive got a pic somewere......have to find it again and put it in the gallery
:leap: :leap:
Yayyyyy Mazzie is coming to visit me!!!!
WOOOOOOOOT!!!!!
like, yeah, that would be cool.. like.. whenever.. no rush.. :rolleyes:
hehe
MAZ!!!!!!!
You know that minkee i sent to you, and the covers that came back.... do you think the large/medium sized ones would be OK over a sandman at night time?? or would i end up with a wet bed???
Yes honey! I use minkee covers over my sandmans all the time...try it what have ya got to lose anyway ;)
:ROFL: mel..control honey control......
nah maz they havent come yet, hopefully today, my washing machne and dryer have been going constantly just to keep me with some fresh breastpads!
damn AP, but they are probably super busy, my delivery guy looks tired
I'm scared..... :pray: for me that i don't wake up in a sopping bed :p
BUT tonight i shall try it :D
Katones - my fleece minky covers are the best overnight!
Maz - woohoo when are you coming to QLD in Sept. We are down for a wedding in Sept. It'd be awesome to catch up!
I better go, mum arrives today and my nappy buckets are stinking out my laundry - I so don't feel like housework today!
oops, didnt realise CT could b for multiple nappies :P
CT im talkin abt is Cushie Tushie (Coutures)
Mel that Frog nappy is pretty cute. Didn't think it would be too long before someone starting making rip off blings LOL. Also your kids look so much like you! I can't believe how much baking goes on in your house!
Also what size is Ashton in? Your after long pants for him? I *might* have some I could try & squeeze into the express bag on its way to you. I know I have a bag of winter boys clothes but not sure what sizes are in it.
Kitten - YAY!! Congrats honey!! Come on cluck time!!
Rhoda - If by CT you mean Cushie Tushies - They are the majority of my stash. We use them any time day or night with a extra booster at night. If you mean Cute Tooshies we have a couple of those which I like too. Both work equally well IMO and are wide crotched. The Cute T are fitteds, the Cushie T are AI2.
Maz - Hun the theme parks are still to far away babe ;) You will just have to come up to the reef too ;)
WOEB: Bum G
WOSB: Zebra CT night combo that she hasn't taken off yet to use the loo
ali- cushie tushies, cos i wanna make use of the special before christmas hehe. Hope they dont too long to dry, magicalls took me ard 4-5 days here in melb!!
Ive doubled my stash in the last few weeks so Really should stop buying nappies before the year end. Afterall i did buy materials for a reason, BUT...
Rhoda - When we were in Adelaide they dried fairly fast even in winter, coz there is only 2 layers of bamboo in each piece. I would hand them on the clothes horse and when then were getting closer to dry I would put them in the dryer once I got one, but we did survive without a dryer for a while.
WOEB - Unchanged
WOSB - a toilet.
ooh ouch lol Sarah was actually doing them before they were released ;):
Ash is a 0-1 depending on the pants. I am finding the 1's fit him better in the rise, not that there is anything wrong with a little peekaboo nappy ;) That would be great FJ :) LMK how much $ you want and I will pop it through. Still have your details :) Happy to pay extra post too.
WOHB: Baby Delight xmas minky pocket.
I just vacuum-packed 98% of my stash and packed it into my suitcase. The last of them are on the line and DS is in sposies (nature babycare) until tomorrow morning. I'm dying for this holiday!! I wish I could take the LS, but DP thinks I'm mental... bah!
ETA: ignore the ticker, it's in some freaky time zone. I'm leaving TOMORROW!!
I think the problem with doing something different is that all us 'makers' tend to be hush hush and get rapped over the fingers when we do release our stuff. (yes maz doing a secret squirel atm ;) ) I was applicating stones and diamontes onto my covers 2 years ago..I didnt have a fancy machine. Ive had the finger pointed at me twice now and what annoys me is that I released the same items 6 months before the other person :doh: Just cant win.
on a nioce note...im bidding on a pair of knot and knits custom shorties for the Jesse auction.....hope I win...I need some woolies for winter cause big bum boy has outgrown most of his
nana- where u off to & for how long?
No reason others can't come out with the same things. I think what alot of WAHM need to do is try not to sit on a great idea for too long because there is so very few "New" things one can do with MCN so chances are another WAHM is working ont he same thing & might beat you to the finish line with the release. Then it was them who did it first & not you KWIM. So while Sarah may have been makin gthese before WC released the Bling. It will always be WC baby Blings that set the mark.
eta - Mel, I will have a dig around & see what there is. Isla isn't well today so I may be slow to the post office but will do my best.
could some1 recommend me a good swim nappy? we're plannin on introducing dragon to water soon :D
are all swim nappy sized??
if some1 can make 1, i dont mind paying hehe
:clap: spot on Fiona..I totally agree babe....have to share it out before anyone else
Oh and Fiona..Kat.. Mo...*maz whistling softly* elmo embroidery cd arrived today :)
Rhoda - Ive been give 2 monkey doodlez ones....I'll share with ya babe if you like
Arimeh -
I noticed that my Green Kids and Happy Heiny SEEM to be leaking around the legs/crotch area... not sure if I'm not stuffing them properly - or if I'm leaving them on too long - or what!!
Off to play with DS as he is building with his train set AND the fish tank needs some serious attention plus I should do some housework as friends of mine have arrived from the states today and will be here for dinner tonight!
I will also try to get into the nappy cupboard and sort out and count how many OSFA nappies I have that can be added to the newborn stash.
WOHB: Swaddlebees that probably needs changing by now
Maz, youwill have to do Elmo on something non nappy related for Isla. She is back to TT herself LOL
Heidi - the only time I have noticed mine leaking around the legs is if I have left it on too long - or if he's had a couple of really big drinks, done a HUGE wee - and the inserts have bunched up towards the middle - because they are sooo full - and then the next time he pees - there is nothing there to catch it... YKWIM?
So it could be something like that - especially if he is a big mover and shaker like mine is ;)
Or the PUL might need resealing.. in which case chuck it in the dryer - that usually fixes it yeah?
maz- sounds good to me if u dont mind :P what size r they?
First in best dressed when it comes to inventing 'new' things my dears. TBH I couldnt care less if every WAHM designed the same thing, Im going to be looking at costs and how well its made. Word of mouth too.
Maz! OMG your heading to Brissy in Sept too? I *could* possibly get to meet you twice in one year if we get the move to Brissy we want. Pretty sad that we never met when we lived 2hrs away from each other and now could possibly both be travelling via planes for an hour or more to do it lol
Nothing new here, BBH are washed and away but no other fluffy mail has arrived yet! I keep checking the letter box and front porch like a maniac, my neighbours must think Im obssessive compulsive haha
Anna might be moving to Brisbane - woohoo!!! Another person to meet up with :leap:
