I got a tree frog one :) Heard back from Michelle, the picture was a mottled green one with brown inner, I got a apple green one with apple green inner, she is making me up the other one so this one will go back. I would have kept it but I really don't like the green.:
Is it AIO or fitted? If you don't want it lmk ;):

If you look in my blog I have a post with all the nappies (I had at that time)
kitt3n..it is AIO......

Of course what does sir do as soon as I put his brand new bling on!!! Shiat he is!!!!!
I lvoe goth stuff.....getting the hankering to do some punk stuff shortly......
WOMB - swinging free ;)
i just found that too Maz!
ooh, Maz hun - i has a q from my DH for you - if someone has an idea for something they want to do for a cover, would you do a customer order? it's not complex at all - just a very sarcastic one he wants to get made for my bro's benefit...
Hell YES!!!!!!!!!:
Pm me what you want babe
I got nothing!:angry: I know for a fact something was express posted for me yesterday morning but still nothing. Not happy.
Oh man, there's so many brands of nappies. Is it wrong of me to want to have one of each? Why do I feel the need to try them all? This is an expensive addiction.
Is it wrong that I can't even remember what I've bought today?
I know that I've got two of Maz's Swaddlebee's. I think I've got the last one of Mantarays... BBH? I think that's what it was. I've ordered 3 from Genesaforge and 3 from Bits for Bots.... and now I can hear iishfly calling!
Oh and I ordered two of Maz's covers from last night's stocking, only to wish Mateauz happy birthday. It wouldnt have been wrong of me not to celebrate with him!
ETA: 3 iish fly nappies fell into my cart and Doh! I pushed the wrong buttons and now I've bought them.
You girls are evil putting me onto all these new nappy sites. *sigh* :D
PM sent Maz
now, a question about baby beehinds - i know i have read somewhere the differences between BBB and BBH - but which ones are going to be better for a girl? how does the sizing go on a newborn if they're one size fitteds...
I have a bunch of one size hemp fitteds for this bub BG and they snap down in the front and then snap all the way in. I thought they might be a tad big but I spent an hour snapping and resnapping them. They snap down to a pretty small size and newborns tend to grow a ton in the first few weeks so she should fit them fine in no time (if not from birth depending on size and shape!)
I think bamboo's are more absorbent but take a bit longer to dry, which is why I got hemp ones. You can boost them too if need be.
Im trying so hard not to buy nappies............this is a real bad addiction to have :redface:
bg - I have used bamboo fitted on both my girls and love them. No problems with gaping, drying time etc. But then again I live in Cairns where we always have sunshine :D
kitt3n - of course you need to buy more nappies from me ;)
my DH LIKES this addiction! he can see how it will benefit his bubba so it's fine! i'm trying to be a good girl - but it's really not working!
i have heard good things about babybeehinds, and want to get some (for home, i think fitteds or flats with covers are going to be more appropriate than AIO's.
will see what everyone comes back with in regard to what they like (esp those that have girls!) - if it's balanced i might get a couple of each...
Hey Jodi, you use the BBH/B on the girls, do you find they fit Nina ok? Jett and Nina are similar in weight and size so if they fit her fine they may just fit my two well. I could always just buy a few more of them for the boys and ask Maz nicely if she can rummage up some large covers for moi....... then all my boys will look fabulous ;)
I use BBB & BBH. Personally I love them. I loved the hemp ones, but they do get stinky & need strip washes more frequently. The bamboo ones are very absorbent and fantastic. I still have 6 BBB that I use with Jovie. She's almost outgrown them and is over 2 yrs old and about to start TT.
lol iishfly seems to be doing well from this thread HA!
Well we got our rates today and our water use is up 30% (abour $15 a quarter)... DH asked i wonder why that is??
ANd i told him it must be me having to wash every 1-2 days with 2 in cloth now... BUt in the scheme of things an extra $1.50 a week isnt too bad is it?:)
awesome - sounds like Bamboo might be the go (though i might grab a couple of hemp as well - i'm becoming a bit of a "try everything" girl!)
i'm gonna hve to keep an eye out for bling - i NEEEED cow bling!
bg i prefer bamboo as i too cant stand the smell or stratchyness of hemp :(
BG I would get 2 or 3 BBB's. they wont fit a new newborn but should fit from about 3 or 4 weeks.
OMG are you having a girl?? I so thought it would be a boy. Im always wrong though LOL.
The rule I think all new nappy buyers should stick to is to only get a couple of each thing to try & then buy up big once you know it suits YOUR baby.
Im looking at the new beetlebum carriers but I think DH would kill me if I spent $160 on one. But then I am also thinking, what he don't know won't hurt him LOL
eta - I dunno if there will be any cow bling for a little while, last time I spoke with Michelle the cows were killing her embroidery machine.
Pink, funny you should say that about your water, I have noticed that we seem to be doing well on water use & being on tank water we have to take notice. But I thnk my new front loader is saving heaps of water so I am happy.
PP an extra $1.50 a week is far preferable to $50 a week for disposables, not to mention all the extra room you have in the bin instead of filling it up with nappies.
Oh no! I just took a look at Genesa Forge and I want but I shouldn't.:cry:
WONB Nappylicious
WOSB nothing
BG - I brought heaps of pink BBB's when pregnant- they are purrrrdy.. hehe... oh, and I prefer my BBB over the BBH - the bamboo just seems to remain softer than the hemp, plus i find it to be more absorbent. I use the hemp one for DS on his naps - but use the bamboo overnight with DD.
Lots of chatting today.
Maz - you should go check out.. you know what ;)
what? I wanna know:
Maz - you should go check out.. you know what
I wanna know too.
OK so do I give Mandy Mac purple nights (I think they'r called) or BBB for night nappies. I'll probably buy 4or 5 so they'll (hopefully) have time to dry
ooohhh, I just checked out GF and the giraffe nappy looks so cute, but I've just bought a cushie giraffe... I guess DD only needs 1 giraffe nappy unless someone can talk me around?
I've got a giraffe one in GK minky? but would luuuuurve another one.. ;)
I say go for two of everything.. heehee!
annat - the bamboo fitted are the only nappies that suited Nina suit. She's too wide for the magicalls and itti bitti. And Maz has done some xl covers for me to suit her, she's too big for the large covers.
i have mentioned it, but i don't expect you to read every word i post!:
the breastfeeding top is a large Nuvo Maternity, it has a polo neck type collar and cap sleeves - in black - i wear it HEAPS cos it's so comfy and easy to feed in. I would class it as a SMALL brand in sizing. Even the XL is not what i would call huge.
according to their charts, my measurements made me a M, but i exchanged the M for an L. I'm a 10D. I know my friend who is an G cup would have no hope of getting in this brand. i will email you a photo of the one i got, cos i can't put links here.
i must try target for knickers. way to go Isla, enjoy your new knickers!
taken any action shots of the new wildchilds on Iain?
WOTBB: lotus night nappy (large) on smallest setting with disana woolly pullup soaker (bilby is 11kg).
someone mentioned recently that the large lotus nights fitted their child up to 18kg, good to know. just a pity they're so hard to get right now!
Jodi, if you're interested, other wide crotch bamboo fitted nappies::
- motherease OSFA bamboo
- Sandy's OSFA bamboo
i'm presume you're already using baby beehinds bamboo OSFA fitteds?
OOOh charmlea off to look now! I love clothies so much I dont care when Im broke lol.
In other news aiden has an ulcer on his butt and the %$^&*% MCHN said maybe it was my nappies crazy lady :rolleyes: Spoke to my dr and he says it would of started out as teething issues and got worse so now he has to be nudie lots and cover that bum in pawpaw ointment lol
WOHB: BBB and cover
Eugenia, can you email or pm me as soon as you see this please?:
a very kind person has offered a freebie for you which will fit your DD.(it has every criteria you need for her) but you need to contact me ASAP.
:yeahthat: was only ever plannin to have jst enuf & make the rest...BUT its turnin out to be something different. sometimes im so glad i dont have a girl to dress but theres so many pretty nappies out there. save me pennies thou :):
in search of more nappies LOL
Just popping in to say g'day and happy birthday to my little dude!!
Congrats Aricyn - you have made it to 2 - without completely driving your mother up the wall. I think we can stop the tanties now though huh? ;)
PMSL!! I love that feeling!!!!!! :rofl::
BG - I have a cushie tushie's cow print, in minkee, it gorgeous but too big for the baby just yet. Maybe Beatix or Ali can get you one on back order? Oh and Matisse has been in BBB's from about 1.5 weeks in the newbornfold, girl bits are all good! LOL. I just take out the smaller booster for now. Congrats on the girl factor too!!! :dance:
Jodi - LOL yes I know, pming you ...... i think, oh god do i really need them? I have 2 friends who i am trying to convert, i am sure they will, i'll see if they wanna grab some too first :)
Aricyn - WOW happening birzday! Now just to make it to 21 without sending mummy bonkers ;)
Eugenia - i looked at GF too but ws able to refrain myself. Still dreaming about the "just hatched" one I saw on bubblebubs though..... should i?
FJ - no, what they dont know wont hurt them. Imagine if half our our husbands read throgh this thread? They would think we are all a bunch of loonies and send us off to MCNA meetings (MCN annonymous) ..... or cut all internet banking access!!!
Question - Cushie tushies - is there a secret fold for medium, or just like the BBB's for when they outgrow the newborn fold? Also, has anyone seen the new steam washing machines? Not that I need a new one, but gos its so cool, but wondering how it would go with MCN's? I have decided its my next one... better win lotto first though, $2,500.00!!!!
wohb: magicall - cant believe it, 2 magicalls have done her overnight!!!
Happy Birthday Aricyn :happyforyou:
Hope you have a good, tanty free day ;)
2 magicalls overnight kitt3n, that's great! As you know, I have heeeeaps of bbh to spare :redface: I've been adding more AIO's to my stash with Emily, so I can spare some.
I've already said it to you, but HAPPY 2nd BIRTHDAY ARICYN!! Be good to your mother!
Imagine having to go to a mcn annonymous meeting. It would be so much fun. I think it would be worse than coming in here :lol:
gigi - thanks for that. Mostly Nina insists on wearing undies to bed at night. And considering how stubborn she is, she usually gets her own way. But we haven't had any accidents yet :clap:
I have Nina in 2-3 size undies, and one particular brand are quite small and don't fit her too well. When she's awake I'll have a look at what brand they are let you know.
Glad to hear you're enjoying the breastfeeding top.
okies - another vague sounding moment for me!
booked in at hospital yesterday and was given a list of what we need to bring for baby - when it came to nappies, the nurse said no nappies except what we need for the day we leave as they provide cloth for monitoring output, but she did say we need snibs (which i'm assuming are the little snappy things and i already have a few of them) - but she also said to take waterproof covers. when SIL had their kids at the other public hopsital locally, they provided them with a platic covers sorta like prefolds that just wrapped around like a nappy - but i've never seen them anywhere - any ideas on what sort of waterproof covers we should use. obviously i have a few (maybe more than a few) Maz covers and was sent some other newborn covers just recently - but i'm not sure i want to use them in hospital. what would you all do? would you take the "good" covers (DH will wash while i'm in hospy, i know that) - or find an alternate in case they go walkabouts? DH has said we'll have some of the yummy covers for visiting hours, but he's not sure about the rest of the time (esp seeing they were HUGELY hectic yesterday!)
