Cloth Nappies #158

rayray - oz baby trends have ecobubs, i got mine yesterday and i think its gonna be a fave

kat - toooooo cute!

wohb- loveybums fitted/maz cover

Yeh I have seen them around, but I wanted to get a whole lot of other stuff there so thought would be easier in one order..hmmm..maybe i need lots of stuff from OBT... ;)

hmmmm what are these ecobubs??? must NOT go and look....*says she who is opening another page to investigate*....

Kitten - How does Matisse go in a wool cover. I tried one last week but it only last a little while as we got a compression leak, I think that's what happened anyway, soaked through everything. Might try again in a couple more weeks with the wool.

I haven't used a wool cover yet :( slack i know..i do have one BUT in all honesty..i think it is too small now :(
i do love my minky/fleece covers :D

Kat - heh it's so hard to try everything out, I understand :) I have a few in my stash that aren't getting used much cause I have brought something else that I like much better.
Just out of curiosity what size IB's is your little man in? I need to buy some more but unsure if I should get a couple small and a couple medium or all mediums.

Ecobubs are pretty cool I must admit. Both the mediums and larges fit DS fine.

On the subject of sizes - laura - if it helps at all - Miss M is still quite comfortably in a small IB

ll ~ jack is in mediums....never bought small IB's i want to buy afew more BUT i think i should buy some large IB's...

Hello! Newbie to this forum... I'm slowly browsing through many of the mcn sites and wish I could have one of everything!! How can you possibly decide what to buy? I doubt I will be very good at posting regularly - I never am. :oops sorry! But I will try.

So far I have 12 bambino mio prefolds + 6 covers. These were so cheap that I figured I could start there. (Unfortunately, now DH thinks anything more expensive is a waste of money!!) My girls spent yesterday exclusively in these and I'm in love with cloth! I quite like these but find them a bit bulky. I'm hoping I can find something a little trimmer.
My sister is giving me 4 tots bots AIOs yay! free nappies!
and I have just ordered 4 baby beehinds AIOs with the pockets.

BUT there are soo sooo soooooo many to choose from! So hoping to get lots of good advice from everyone.

A couple of questions:
How many nappies do you think I will need for twins? I was thinking 10 a day so if I have 30, I can comfortably wash every other day?

What do you do to stop your nappies getting all messy at meal times? It's so hot that my girls are usually just in nappies during the day and my nice new covers now have banana stains on them. :( Is it ok to soak a PUL cover in nappy san?

Kat those pics are so cute! I love the last one... he's like "NO MORE CHANGING ME MUM WAAAAAH"

Hannah I would say a bit more than that. If I want to wash every other day I want about 30 and that's for one baby. So maybe 60ish? Also depends on where you live, the weather and if you use a drier.

LFUFFY MAIL!!!!!!!

sorry excited!!!

FLUFFY MAIL!!!!!

I got 2 IB's (now have all the colours bar the light pink) and **** I got an IB bag!!!! Its my new hand bag!!!!! I WUV SARAH!!!!!!!!

am waiting rather impatiently for IB fluffy mail from the day they had their sale

i hate living in the sticks - just seems to make me wait sooooooooooo long!

can't even stalk the postie - he doens't come here - i have to go to the PO for my mail!

BG hon...want me to send you some fluffies babe :)...I can send other stuff later :) :)

nah all good hun - send it all together

i'm just whinging cos i'm having a shocker and i know others got their order already

ignore me - i'm normally a patient person - honest!

BG, you will be surprised when i PM you !! it might make waiting just a little easier ..
got my loulou fluff at the PO waitng .. will be picking it up first thing tomorrow .. yaay ..

maz IB bag ??? wots it look like ??

Ray ray - wonder if that means the SB will be on sale ? hmmm
WOGB ? bum genis

I don't have mine yet either BG :(

woot - i don't feel so bad now Sam - at least it's not the sticks working against me

and Lea - that PM definitely made me feel better hun!

ll80 - matisse is fine in the wool covers, i havent even lanolised them yet...only have one at this stage, the Babybeehinds one, waiting on my loveybums one :) as for ittis - i have 5 small, and she is on the largest setting. SO she will be into the mediums very very soon... i have 8 of them

i think i want more ecobubs and cute tooshies then i shoudl be done... or should i get WC's?

hannah - yeah i am aiming for that many for just one, as nappies will take 2 days to dry here in winter... i think i have already got enough :( but oh the WANT!!

gosh if i went and counted them i would probably have closer to 40 in mediums/OSFA (still in smalls for now)
