Ladies i have a question for you.
One of Maddi's snoozywuns has this horrible smell that i can't get rid of.
I've done a few strip washes but the smell is still there. Not really sure what else i can do.
AnnaT - Do you have some Lansinoh? Dissolve a pea-sized amount of that in some hot water in a bucket. When the water is just warm (30 degrees ish) add the woollies and swish them around. Leave them for half an hour or longer, then squeeze out the water and leave the woollies to dry flat in the shade.
mind balnk what are DD's???
ashleigh will add you .. feedind dd to sleep then will jump on fb..
NaNa - i have an appt with the nurses this arvo to get dd into Ellen barron center.. its a sleep school , i went there wits DS but i think DD is waay worse than him ....
some nights phenergan is the only thing to get DS to sleep:redface: , DD goes to sleep on the boob ok but sleeps for a few mins before shewakes ... i is soooo tied
Hells bells girls don't you all sleep???? A new thread and already 3 pages!
No fluffy mail for me today... i don't think i am actually waiting on anyting tho...must fix that.
marlene lol on the "night nappy" good on you for trying! I must have booffer of a bub, Em is 9kgs and 4 months younger than jack!
Ali- I did a canesten rinse on mine. The instructions that came with my loulou (i think) said its ok to do one every now and then or a dettol rinse. hoepfully that helps your Em's rash.
We are off to a babies galore today cause they are closing down...hoping to find a bigger nappy bag to fit the wetbag and mcns in!
lea - we went to sleep school, but controlled crying is not for us. Getting DS to sleep isn't our problem. Getting him to stay asleep is a big issue. (This isn't nappy related... yet...) We tried polaramine and pain stop, and it did nothing! I'm beyond tired. Washing nappies is the only reason I'm out of my pjs, and the prospect of fluffy mail is keeping me from going nuts or PND!
Morning gorgeous ones! i'm at work so briefly popping in and skimmed and now going to vent.
**WARNING VENT AHEAD**
We dropped the kids off at daycare this morning to be told by one of the group leaders that since the government is cracking down on accreditation stuff - our cloth nappies have to be covered with a plastic pilcher because of legislation.
Well I hit the friggin roof didn't I. Told her that the old fashioned pilchers don't breathe and I may as well be using disposables :wall:
She said that for health and safety reasons we need to supply them with a plastic pilcher, because the nappies leak. And I turned around to her and sharply said "they only leak because they don't get changed often enough". And she said NO, they leak. We change him often enough.
I felt like saying "listen you stupid biatch - I give you 6 goddamn nappies to change him throughout the day - and you send me back 3 (on average) that have not been used. I send you enough to change him every 2 bloody hours, and here you are standing in front of me telling me its a problem with MY nappies - not the fact that you guys aren't changing him when I TOLD YOU TO". :wall:
But I didn't. I said nothing and looked away after giving her a dirty look.
So DH asked what we were going to do, and I said I'm not purchasing plastic pilchers - I'll give them a motherease cover (to put over the bumg's that they get given, friggin ridiculous) and that should be ok.
Just shiats me to no friggin end, cos like, disposables leak - but they aren't made to put pilchers over the top - and mine only leak because they leave them on TOOOOOO BLOODY LONG.
ARGHHHHH :wall:
Stupid.
So anyhooo.. thats my vent.
Everyone else having a nice day I'm assuming ? ;)
Will be walking to the PO Box today (DH has the car) to see if I have any fluffy mail...still waiting on itti bitties. I don't think I'm waiting on anything else, but I cant remember, LOL. Just got the stimulus money in the bank this morning...so watch out fluff, here I come!!!! (After I've paid for all Jack's 1st b/day stuff and party that is)
eej....yeah Jack's only little for his age I think, but my Mitchell is the same, he is almost 9 and one of the smallest in his class. He is the fittest though. Wins every sport/race he attempts (except swimming) LOL....and he just loves to show us how he can do one armed push-ups, PMSL, DH can't even do them!!!
ETA: Sorry you've had a crappy morning. Stoopid daycare centre!!!
eej - your gal and my gal are the same age and Gabirella is 7.2 kgs .. either you have a boof or my girl is tiny !!
DD has been labled "below average " by many people :(
NaNa - i hate controlled crying too .. im not sure what im going to do at sleep school ... but all i know is 6-8 breast feeds a night is not doing me any good , considering DD feeds about 12-14 breast feeds a day .. its almost 1 an hour .. im going mental !!!!!!!
got my 3 woddlebots this morning !! woo about to prewash them now !!
Mel - oh crap! Do these people live under a rock? Oh, yeah, Nambour... they probably do... aaaarrrrrgghhh!!
BTW, Lea - DD = Daddle Doo oh, and sleep school call it "modified" controlled crying. Good luck, and be strong. They don't look kindly on feeding to sleep, even if it works for you.
Yeah I think i have a bit of a booffer! I worry at times she is too big but she just above average on the charts but I say phooy to charts. But DH and I aren't tiny. I don't know why they think babies have to be the same, look at adults and how different we all are! Crazy...sorry not nappy related! Good luck with sleep school Lea!
Champion DD Marlene!
Mel what a stupid rule! In my experience sposies leak alot more than the MCNs! Igdits
i went to sleep school with DS and the waiting list was so long he was fine when he went there ... if not sleep school , then what :dunno:
dd is sleeping now .. but im not :(
ashleigh have added you on FB !
Jack is only in the 10th percentile...and the MCHN was tring to get me to drop some of his BF's for more solid foods. He eats like a horse (i've never seen a baby eat as much as him, lol) and enjoys his boobie...so stuff the MCHN, lucky I don't believe in those silly charts!!
Just waiting for Jack to wake up so I can go check for more fluff. Am on the prowl for a NN to order this afternoon, have to go to the bank first and transfer some money into my Visa debit.
WOJB...terry flat and blue BBH cover.
dunno, lea. I'm trying everything. DP tried to blame it on big night nappies, but I blame it on DS inheriting his hyper personality!!
I have, I brought 8 pairs and they are good. Much better sizing then Babylegs and Legwarmers. I only had an issue with one pair which freyed in the wash.
Ashton always wears a wondersuit to bed as it's freezing here and we have never had a leak so I am pretty sure it wouldn't be that.
We used Cute Tooshies bamboo delights, Wild Child, Mirabai, Bizy Bee, Ish Fly, Baby Beehinds minkee (which are wonderful) ... sheeeeesh the list goes on and on. I have pics and a list in my blog. Ashton is a super wee boy some days but others he isn't so it depends I think on if he is holding in a fountain for the clean nappy lol
Mel that is so not cool about the day care centre. I would be saying NOPE change the nappy every 2 hours and it wont happen. Then I would be enquiring as to if the rules are being applied to the leaky sposies too? Sounds like they are trying to be dificult.
Ashton was the same. We were doing BLS and he was just hungry ALL the time. Since switching to pureed food for 3 meals and BLS snacks during the day he has been a lot happier and started sleeping through. This was a child who was up on average of 5 times a night to feed, and he would feed too, it wasn't comfort! I was a walking zombie!
Well Ash has a rash. I decided since the load of nappies wouldn't be able to be line dried due to the rain I would put some of the trinature washing powder in, and he got a rash so I am glad we have nailed that to the definate reason. He just can not have his nappies washed in anything but water :( Oh well. Have to rewash all the nappies now. Lucky I have enough.
WOHB: WC spider bling. Sparkleeeeeeeeeeey
NaNa - he tried to blame it on nappies .. lol .. oookaay then .. i dont think a nappy would have anything to do with it ..
MM - Gabs hase 2-3 meals a day .. shell have a big brekkie and lucnh and then dinner .. somethimes i leave out a feed if she has a rash from something she has eaten .. i try to pump food into her but she have a few spoons and then shes done .. she will literally push the spoon away and spit food out ...
so im at a loss .. i have even tried a bottle and farex before bed and its still the same !!!!! and DH tried to settle her and for 40 mins wailed her head off . :(
not much fun in this house ..
any way .. marlene .. i have some NN i am putting on FB .. ;)
anyone having issues with AP at the moment?????? I sent something off last week and the person STILL doesnt have it.....their only in NSW and im in VIc so they should ahve gotten it 2 - 3 days tops.
:angry: im so ANNOYED!!!!!!!!!!
I've had no issue with receiving Maz....AP has been very good to me!! Hopefully they haven't lost it on you.:doh:
I've always had an issue with AP! They lost my wedding photos, and by the time they were recovered, I was divorced! hmmmm.... I've had better luck with fluffy mail, but had a cover go AWOL just last month.
ok real quick question...
since my MIL is hopeless with snap nappies..i am getting nappies that have aplix closures....what i want to know is...would it be ok to use my lou lou NN during the day as i only have 2 lou lous (day nappies) 1 BBH magicall and the lou lou NN with aplix.... til i recieve my other aplix closing nappies...
i presume it ok...just having a blonde moment...
for sure, kat. Just take out any extra boosting or snap-in boosters it's got. Don't see why not.
Eej- is that the c-town store ??
DD+ DaddleDoo WAHM
Eej- i saw ur DD at the meet and i didnt think she was a boofer... :D
MissyMoo- YAY off to buy the 4 pack i saw thanks heaps... :redface: i just picked up 5 for under $30 inc postage...
Mel- So not cool... I just talked to my DC cos i wanted to put DD in cos she is so clingy and wont go to anyone. they told me they wuldnt do the cloth ones (they supply sposies) i told them she gets rashes and all they had to do was take it off and put in a wet bag... r they allowed to say no to cloth??
Maz- not sure if Mel has special AP spies who get her mail out quick but i got my order super quick and there was 2 public holidays over easter.... Hope it shows up... how much estra is registered??
No Krudd money here so no more fluff shopping unless i can pay next week... lol. fortnightly wages suck
It's an awesome buy Jess :)
Lea that isn't good :( Poor you!! Must be so tired. Hopefully something works. For us it was wrapping instead of feeding to sleep.
Ashton is being a nudy bum at the moment. As soon as I take the nappy off he crawls around everywhere. He loves being a rudey bum!
Maz I am still waiting on something that was supposedly posted from Vic over a week ago. I got everything else posted from there but still waiting on these longies that were knitted for Ash... Bloody hope it shows up since I have been waiting on them for over 5 months and it was supposed to be a swap from then.
MM they are hugalugs?? i think thats the brand...R they good ones?? My DS keeps wearing DD's pink ones as sleeves so i got him skull and crossbones and navy ones plus 2 pairs for DD... lol

Maz - My letter from qld transport was dated 6/4/09 and I recieved it on the 15th. They are pretty slack with some things and not with others lately.
That just goes towrads toe sleeping witht eh posite consiracy.. lol
Hey I have some widdle wuns, i cant remember is they are AIO or need covers though..how do I tell?
I think WW are AI2's arent they??
Yeah widdlewuns are AI2's - don't need a cover.
I'm soooo friggin cranky.
Day care just rang and said that they have run out of Miss M's nappies - she has been *crying* and *screaming* apparently when doing a pee (she's teething so rash is bad at the moment).
They asked if I wanted her put in their spare sposies, and i said NO - see if Aricyn has any spare and use those (bumg pockets).
They said that they would do that.
And I've just been thinking. They probably have been changing her because they think she is screaming because she has her pee against her. Well NO... its a bumg so it would suck the moisture away from her - so there would be no friggin difference in wearing a sposie.
I bet you any money she is in a sposie when I get there tonight to pick them up.
Grrrrr... I'm freakin cranky today. :wall:
Mel - Ring the child care authorities. I think it is NCCAC. You need to get their side of the story. I have put my foot down and said to the CC that I will not pay for them to have something I dont use at home. I will only supply sposies if that is what I am using at the time (and then it has to be with NR cream) and they havent charged me for their sposies when they have used them (like if a rash seems to be getting worse over the day, they put a sposie and cream on her to try and nip it in the bud)
Oh Mel that sucks.... I just took in an MCN to show them cos they were complaining they wouldnt use them... They said they would have to change her so often... So i put it under the tap to show them how much water it held... :redface: What else do i do... DD uses 1 sposie at night and gets a rash
Hmm. in that case Im missing a snap in from one of them.
BG is such an ENABLER! Here i am minding my own business, slacking off on my last day of work, and the next thing I'm on SHP with an $80 cart!!!
me????? enabler????
HELL YEAH!
Oooo last day of work Ray how exciting! SHP are fab!
no Jess they were cheapo ones. A pack of 4 for $20 or $5 each.
Hey I have a quick question so don't want to post another thread . . .
What do you put your dirty, rinsed nappies into when you've changed them to stop them stinking the room they in out till washing time?
* Bucket with Water?
* Dry Bucket? Smelly?
* Some kind of Nappy Bin with Lid?
MCN's should be dry pailed Sarah - so a nappy bucket with a lid until they're going to be washed - no need to soak them hun
