Good Morning Ladies
Question. How long will my BBH shed fluff for. I was wondering if I wash them again and maybe put them in the dryer on cool and see if that does the job. I have washed em twice so far and will do them again today then pack them to be moved. I sent a bunch of stuff down to my friend in melb so she could check em out and when she sent them back, the BBH had shed all over the BB wool cover
Luckily for me, I always only washed same with same IYKWIM so they didnt shed on anything else.
Also has anyone experienced colors "running" in the wash? I havent but am paranoid about it, so much so I have resorted to washing nappies individually (just for the first wash) Am I being a numpty?
PS yes, I realise i am also being a wally with water but we live on the g/coast, on tanks that are pretty much on constant over flow at the moment.........
Lea, spoke to the nappy lady friend of yours in bris (preggo morning brain, cant remember her name now) She is lovely. Told her no rush on my order, poor thing sounds frazzled...
Gigi, thanks for the heads up on her
Also Michell from WC took my order for bling so yay, machines must be working
Hey girls. Gee you chat a lot in here!!
Well I haven't had any nappies shred like that and my gosh I hope it doesn't happen! That is horrible, I would cry
I have 2 berry plush here, no longer used because Ash is too fat lol They are so cute, the booster is wonderful and so soft!! I love the look of them but Ashton is just too chubby for them (I have smalls)
As for a cover, yes you should get one that is the next size up from the nappy you are using. Most of my covers are a large now, cos Ashton is in a medium nappy. But then I like to boost my nappies on the outside with a bamboo trifold
Ashton slept ALL NIGHT! He is going to be so wet cos I didn't change him before I put him down at 9, Dave did and put the BP on him (which is too small) but I didn't want to change him cos he was excited about putting him in a nappy all on his own, usually I get the nappy and cover out for him lol, I he would have a feed at 12 and I would change him then... well he is STILL asleep and its 7.10!! About to go lay in bed and wait for him to wake. Can't believe he slept ALL night!
Shelly I never wash anything individually, it's all in together always.
Michelles machine is broke still until next week... which I think is this week coming lol
well another all night in a bbb here, my good little girl! 4 weeks old and i dont have to get out of bed at night i got a berry plush in medium, with booster - my plan is to use that over a bbb at night, what do you think?
mel - i looked at your piccy that shredding is such a worry, i hope you find out what it is..... could it be the detergent? **insert sarcastic smart ass tone** or maybe its the flouride in the water??
shells - havent done any seperate washing here, nor have i had any runs, and 95% of my mcns are new, so i wouldnt bother if i were you
ls - what did you get at ozbabytrends? eva is really lovely, i like ordering from her
ll80 - hello bellybuddy! so nice to see you in here, i think we are the only ones using cloth from our thread, or is there another? cant remember ...
It is a mystery isn't it Mel. I'm the same, a lot of the time I don't even use detergent.
shelley - I've never had fluff come off my bbh, so can't help you there. The only nappy I've had run on me is a pink d'lish, it coloured all the other nappies pink! Luckily after being in the sun for a few days the pink faded and you can't notice them now.
woohoo on getting a full night sleep kitt3n! Good to hear the bbh did the trick.
Kitten - nothing as yet! lol Just checking things out atm...will have rather a lot of money to spend on fluff in about 2 weeks so am trying to figure out what I want next! lol Looking for things in the unusual, but I need narrow crotch for DD so that in itself seems to rule most things out! lol OBT has BGs on sale atm
Kitten - I dont do PUL overnight....It cook's my kids bums to much
ray - BP are generous in the bigger sizing...I had smalls for Mateauz when he was NB and he outgrew them quickly....mediums and larges are the way to go for value for $$$$$
OK have the BEST nappy creme EVER!!!!
Avado baby naturals Nappy Lotion. Its in a yellow bottle and it is FANTASTIC!!!!! I got it on clearance at coels for 99cents but omg it has cleared Mateauz butt up over night!!!!
Just htought I would share with you all
Ray - ecobubs are pretty good. think i had one leak, when he slept longer than i thought he would and didn't stuff it with anything other than the microfibre insert. Only thing we don't like - side snapping - not a fan. Oh and the pocket hole goes towards the front of bub - not at back
Alexis - yeah they are going to replace that one, but not my boosters cos its too hard to work out when I got them
Ok....*puts on shelock holmes cap* if both Mel and Jodi don't use detergent, or rarely, what about Nelle? If she doesn't, then maybe the wee is not being cleansed out of the nappy properly and so continues to eat and destroy the nappy in the background until one day it all just lets go with the force of the washing machine??
Just a theory....I hope you can figure it out cos it looks just awful. I just checked all mine and they are all looking fine! Phew!
I use bicarb soda in my wash with the nappies and hot water. I use a front loader and wash on a normal cycle which is around 1hr 20 minutes. When the nappies are finished, I hang them up in the sun & they don't usually smell. I find if there is a smell, I wash them again with a handful of soap nuts and bicarb.... does the trick. I generally do the soap nuts/bicarb thing every few weeks.
Am I being a numpty?
