Hey Lea, I was a lurker for months too.....;)
Thanx Kitt3n, will go for a look see.
Gigi, I believe you on the mama pads, may give em a go (hopefully not for 3mths or so tho)
Kitt3n, your msg disturbs me a little, I have a couple of d'lish and had made up my mind after hours (practically all day :shhh:) yesterday that the next thing I got from itti bitti would be the boo's. What to doooooooo?
Also, on the wee wuns, has anyone used the german made wool shorties, leggings, blankets ect. They sound lovely. Worth the dollaz?
If you want high rise fleece covers, you can't go past Maz-a-licious ;)
Hi, I'm another lurker that's come out of hiding.
I have a question I hope someone can answer, DS is fast outgrowing his small/NB PUL covers and I wanted to get something more breathable but I'm concerned about how fleece goes under clothes, do the clothes end up feeling damp?
I also got that Itti bitti email and I'm trying very hard, though not very succesfully, to convince myself I don't need any more nappies ;)
i was worried about that too, but no, no dampness here at all!:
Ok, just bought one of those 60 dollar packs from ceejay.
No bloody more!!!!!!
Just some maz covers and thats it.
And some bling and a couple of wildchild night nappies (but not till he's born)
I need to get of couch and get some work done, need the $ for the new house (3 weeks to go - it almost doesnt look like a bomb site anymore :D)
Have a good day all xx
i have one kristi !! but nixon is out growing it fast !!! its a large too and just (nap pokes out the top ) fits him with a sandman or vbsn ..:
do you have XL maz ??
Shells bells !! yay on your purchase !! you are in GC ?? is you ask nicely you can pick up from robyn ... I might just have a sticky at it today when im there picking up my KK's
I have found clothes get damp with a fleece cover if i leave the nappy on too long. It only happens it the nappy is soaked. ;)
Maz- Woooooo freaking hoooooo on the little man walking! That is so awesome. :blucheer: Go 'teuz!
Off to check out ittitbitti sale. :o
DAMN IB email :P:
what did i do as soon as i saw it :lol: bought 2 more....
im not even going to look at the ittis!! after it taking 3 loads to strip wash all my nappies (that included ones for bubs) ive decided that i dont need any just at the moment!! maybe once i sell off my newborn/small stash later on i will
2 more sleeps maz!!
the itti bitti boos - very nicely made, we found them very absorbent.:
the Disana woollies? we have been using the Disana woollen pullup soaker for over night nappies, so i can tell you about that one.
- australian wool, german made soaker
- high rise (wonderful for night nappies therefore)
- lovely and soft
- great to have no closures - esp at night! just PULL upwards
- buy a much bigger size than your bub currently needs
- see photos of babies wearing them at the greenmountaindiapers site, that's what gave me the idea to buy a XL when bilbs was the weight for an M - it's worked out beautifully. instead of buying a new one for every size, we'll just use the one, until tt-ing - so good economical value.
i think the woollen pullup soaker is def worth the dollars
not so sure about the leggings.
I find I get damp clothes with fleece also. Not wet just damp.
welcome Eugenia!:
fleece does breath well.
fleece can get compression leaks e.g in the car, if fitted underneath is completely sodden.
in general though, if a fleece cover is wicking, that would be a sign to me, that i need either a more absorbent nappy for my child (more layers), or to add more boosting. Your child may be weeing more now, and with mcn you need to customise the nappy combo to their wetting pattern.
the frequency of changing them also comes into play. you do need to change them more often, then when they're in sposies.
i used lots of fleece covers from five days old, no problems.
plus i used malden mills fleece pockets for nights, honeyboy aio from 5kgs (brilliant)
cover MUST cover 100% of the nappy underneath
if the nappy does not have enough absorbent fabric in it, or has been left on too long, eventually, the cover will become wet
Welcome Lea - we use the bear bottoms MM fleece pullup soaker - it's excellent. machine wash and dries fast. great night cover for us usually.
when buying any cover or woollies, you need to know your own child's NIGHT RISE - this is, their rise measurement OVER their night nappy. Buying a night soaker or cover, with the rise measurement in mind, means you will buy something that WILL entirely cover their night nappy. Woollies are not all short rise, it all depends on the rise you buy. So take a bit longer to measure and communicate with seller, and you'll end up getting what you need. i buy a few cms more rise than bilby currwently needs, to allow fdor growth. too big in woollies, works fine - you just pull in that drawstring and it fits.
Robyn of possum pouches is great to communicate with, tell her your child's rise BEFORE you order a woolly. Apply that to any night cover you buy, your success rate will shoot up.
MAZ - did bertha behave for you last night??
hmmmm yeah Maz did bertha play nicely?? was just thinking about that :p
yep have to agree...if Jack soaks a nappy and has a fleece cover on we get'damp' here too....nothing a change of clothes doesn't fix
WOJB ~ royal blue IB
Hiya everybody!
Just about to vacuum-pack all my nappies again to head home from holidays... :( It's been lovely though, and I've made quite a few converts! The Wild Child night nappies I got before Christmas are just fantastic!! Looooove them! Looking forward to getting home to my Little Squirt. This teething mess is horrible to clean up without it! Two top teeth have popped up in the last week.
Wow, everyone's got cool new tickers! Mine seems to have been removed while I've been away... ?
Gigi - how's your finger healing up?? Hope you didn't do any damage to the nerves, I know how awful that is. I have "hospitality hands", they're a mess of scars from working as a chef too long!
Maz - woohoo Mateauz! that's awesome!
WOHB: BumG, but only just. He's figured out how to undo velcro and take it off! Already!
I got that itti bitti email too, and I stupidly told DH about it, saying that there is 25% off, and he said 'but we dont need any more nappies'... why didnt I just keep quiet and order?????
WOHB - dunno, she is sleeping and DH changed it
lol mum2sqidg, i havent told dh about any of the nappis i ordered this week!
my stash isnow complete, except a few larger covers :) though.
wohb: tester pocket nappy
Hey ladies! DH leaves for Canada tomorrow - boohoo 16 days and we haven't been apart for more than 5 days in 11 years! Anyway tonnes to do but I have SO much fluffy mail on the way I can't contain myself! In the mail I have a GK minky, GK anytime, HH, Hautes, Pea Pod, 2x Itti bittis(gotta love a sale!) Bubblebubs, Cushie, and a BP that Im borrowing!! :leap: VERY excited! Next step is fitteds and covers for nights but might have to wait for DH to get back!
Off to clean this sty - have a great day!
WOJB: A sposie coz the 2 nappies I have that I can use are in the wash!! BRING on the fluff.

Oh Oh I think my postie just came BRB!

There is an express bag at the post office for me & I just know it has about 9 WC nappies in it!!! including BLING!!!
Hi all,
it's been a long time since I visited, but I have the most amazing urge to go back to cloth, so here I am *yippee* Guess the sunshine has helped encourage me.
OK, so when Blake was in MCNs I only bought large cause he was 18mths old. Tyler is a skinny runt of a 13mth old, so I guess I'll have to buy some mediums.
SO, what should I buy. What's been on the market in the last 18mths - apart from Maz's gorgeous stuff. ;)
I usually like pockets, but am open to suggestions.
What should I buy? Was thinking about Happy Heiny's cause I used to love them for Blake. Was also considering BumGeniusV3's, and Itti Bitti D'lish. Tell me if they're any good please cause I want to buy online right now!!! (or as soon as someone can encourage me what to buy.)
Thanks for your help again girls.
I'll try not to be a stranger :)
DAMN my postie!!! he didn't bring fluff :(
Maz i oredered 2 more IB :lol: was going to hide it from hubby BUT i just couldn't..LOL
WOJB ~ SPOSIE :( coz we were at the drs and i didn't pack any clothies in his bag and pooped
wardy...go buy ittis..25% off :D
Katones - I know! Which is why I thought I'd go back to them, apart from this nagging urge over the last few weeks/months. I've got two in my basket already before I thought I better ask you gorgeous girls what I should buy.
oohhhh hi rach hun!!!!!
go the ittie snap ins!! both are great, i just prefer the snap ins!!
Thanks for your replies everyone.
Well, I've been bad and I went and bought 2 new IBs. But they're on sale!! So now I really do NOT need any more nappies. Luckily I do need covers ;) I've been eyeing off Maz's giraffe print minkee so I'll have to make sure I'm nice and early so I can grab one.
funny that most people i have spoken to LOVE their snap in itti's i hate them..i have 2 of them...
Hiya Jols! Great to see you honey. Congrats on the belly! and the Mod!
Have got to AIOs in my basket but if you reckon the snap ins I'll change them :)
There's 10% off at BSL (which I'm sure you already know) so I'm happy to buy there too. What else can I buy. I'm ready to spend $$$
(Maz if you wanna earn money today (even though you're not reopening until 14/2, let me know cause I'm ready to spend!!! LOL )
PS don't tell John!!!! Hee hee hee
hmmm me thinks maz is having a stocking prior to the 14th ;)
OK Katones, what else should I be buying!!!!
hmmmmm i don't know..maybe some wildchild nappies??? (which i can't wait to get)
I love my ittis and i love my BBB with a maz cover
Hiya Rachel :D Good to see you pop in! A good time to be buying nappies I reccon.
I'm thinking about getting a couple of ittis too atm. Ruby is growing out of the newborn nappies we have *sniff sniff* and the ittis we have are working well.
Raven...they grow too quick, don't they....
OMG :omg: you are all so restrained!! I got the IB email last night, immediately told DH, advised Jett would need Mediums pretty soon so we may as well buy now while they are on sale, told him the price for the bakers dozen and his response
"gee, that's alright isn't it? Yeah better get them!!"
So I did. Plus a few more!! :shhh: All sewn in ones, just find the snap ins don't work well for us, Jett's legs are too skinny so we end up with leg gape and leakage!! Funny :rofl:, but not appreciated by most people! :redface: They are the nappy DH likes best for their convenience and the trim fit! So who am I to argue???
So bring on the fluffy mail!
WOJB: Midnight IB
jeez mummytummy maybe your hubby needs to speak to mine!!!!
i sent DH a text message saying i had bought 2 more nappies....mind you he doesn't know about the nappy on its way..the cover on its way...the bling on its way..and 3 other covers in the works.....
rach maybe get some of each, that way om not to blame if you dont like them :lol:
Too late Jols,although I thought maybe I should email them to change my order, or to place another order and cancel the one I just did with 4 snap ins cause MummyTummy's boy Jett has skinny legs, and I reckon Ty would fall into that category too.
oh dilema!
(I also bought a BG and a HH pocket on BSL.)
What/where is BSL please I might need more!!! :rofl: I got all excited before because a TNT truck rolled up and I thought it was my order from last week but it was for DH boo hooo!!!
FLUFFY MAIL!!
I just got 3 WC Day dreamers. 4 WC Fitteds and and and
BLING!
Gecko Bling!
Plus a heap of fleece to finish off some Day dreamers I have here LOL. Best get to work PSML..
I will post pics in a tic
BSL is babysoftlandings. It's an aussie site. They have HEAPS of nappies!
OK so now I have to ask... what is Bling?
