    oh Mel I am happy you were successful lol too bad about the rain! I would die without my drier!! Funny thing is that I never had one before Ashton was born lol and I don't use it all the time, very rarely actually, but i couldn't imagine not having it anymore!!

    I hope everyone is well! I have my Tafe course today, Business cert 1, just something to pass the time. So excited about getting out and doing something! Going to take a big deep breath and leave Ashton in the child care that is provided.... it's a great CC and he is only 2 minutes away from me in the other end of the building, but still!! Last time I put him in the cot to sleep and picked him back up when he woke lol

    Okay, quick question....
    Maz covers. Will they fit good over BBB and BBH or should I stay with the ones that they came with? Also, have 1 box of newborn sposies (just till i get the whole baby wrangling thing sorted) so I have started off my mcn stash with mainly smalls. Will Maz smalls fit over what I have or do i go bigger. Prob have more to say, but have morning brain TIA

    shell - I only use Maz's covers over my bbh stash. So yeah, they'll fit. What size did you get in the covers? If you're boosting the bbh up you made need the next size up in the cover.

    Ta Jodi.
    I havent got any Maz covers yet, am waiting till thurs. Am kind of in dillema land as the BBH and BBB ones hat I have are the OSFM type that seem to be the workhorse for most of you guys. (thats why I got em )
    But even when fold em down and make them on the smallest fitting, I wonder how they will fit on a newborn. (they still look pretty big to me)
    And I didnt want to go out and buy a bunch of newborns and be overwhelmed by the whole business and not use em (and allow DP to say I told you so...)
    So I only have 4 babybehhinds covers, 2 pul and 2 wool all in small. I am kinda thinking that it may take a month to get into mcns so am not sure how much boosting I will be doing. What do you recon?
    Dp also really likes the animal prints so I want some of those to appease him. Also, does anyone do a cammo print cover or nappy and i really want a cheetah print too. For some strangely disturbing reason, Adam wants the kid dressed barney rubble style....

    In the early days with Emily I only used one booster, not both, with my bbh. She was in a small cover for a couple of weeks, but grew too quickly. It's not really until they get older, wee more, and possibly sleep through the night that you need to boost heavily.
    They do look bulky, but they will fit. Depending on the size of your bub, you might find in the first couple of weeks he might be too small for them, but as you're using sposies in the first couple of weeks, you should be alright.

    ME!! But I have 3 clothes lines to make up for it

    On the nappy front, I got my replacement itti bitti last week. The old one started falling apart, so Sue was kind enough to replace it. The 6 month warranty on it was up the week I sent the email. Good timing.
