Crikey Jess - she must have been peeing all the extra liquid in her body out or something!!!!
I have found my Snoozys are awesome for DS - but he doesn't outpee a GK either if I have both inserts (insert and booster) plus microfibre.
Plus snoozy's are pretty trim - so if I am worried that he will wet through (ie, he's had a HEAP of water that day) I will quite often put a GK bamboo insert on the outside of the nappy for extra protection.
Helloooo everyone else
DH is just taking DS to the IL's for the morning, cos he's really really annoying.. The worst thing about having IL's that don't ever call to catch up, or ever call to take DS for a few hours during the week - is having to listen to DS continuously ask to see "granma" and know that you are going to have to call to ask if you can come over because they won't friggin do it. They just don't get the fact that the only one hurting here is DS... *sigh*
BG - the ones they were selling were Amber Bebe anyway (lady running one of the doula stands is a friend of the owner or something...)and they were the same price as online so no biggie. Glad you got one!
Yer i'm not opposed to pockets and i do find it very theraputic sitting there and stuffing all my nappies on a night as i watch tv.....ahh i love this time....i get to go shopping withinn reason, it'll be my first fluffy shop so be ready for 20 questions!
when i first went cloth my friend that im starting the business with lent me all her newborn ones (hence why my little man is wearing pink nappies) and she had SOOO many that i have no reason or excuse to shope for any....but but but he is growing out of the newborn size (yes he is that small) and i don't have as many Small sized ones and only one NN so yayay i get to go shopping! That and DS isn't happy with the fact that he's wearing pink so has agreed i can buy some boyish ones! woop woop i am so very very very excited
Quick question- any thoughts about the difference between Bumgenius AIO or the pockets other that personal preference? Do AIOs take ages to dry? I am only starting out so don't have many MCNs (3) so can't afford huge drying time.
geez....havachat women!!!!!
I feel abit out of wack coming in here....being back at work...doesn't leave me enough hours in the day for all you fluff women....
Katie - I find my Bumg's AIO's are the quickest drying AIO's that I own - but not as quick as pockets of course, the shells are almost dry when you take them out of the washing machine!
So crapped off - DH left with DS so I can have some "cleaning" time - and IL's misunderstood DH's call to them this morning, so he left, and about 5 minutes later - IL's pull into our driveway - and I'm still in my PJ's!!!!! Quickly got dressed and put my hair up and they came to the door, and I'm like - uh.. what are you guys doing here? And they're like, well we got a call to come here for smoko.. and I'm like.. uh NO.. Craig was bringing DS to see you guys so I could clean!! Grrrrrr...
*Sigh* So they are still outside (being extra critical about the state of our backyard yadda yadda yadda)
Ahhh I love my life
Nappy related - I have a few. Just a few.
ETA - Fluff - did you still want my boxer? Seriously like, want him? Cos we are really thinking of giving him away to a good home, the beagle is really well behaved, and we just can't devote time to both of them unfortunately (especially with a third bub on the way!)
Hrrmmmm, I think I've done a noobie mistake, my first two GKs I brought a bamboo insert and a micro insert and then with the last one I brought, I got a micro insert and bamboo booster, lol, I was wondering why they were so bulky and then the last one not as much.
Jess--
my heavy wetter wets through a snoozywun in 5 hours.
i find WC NN, sandmans and possum pouches KK the best will last 12 hours with a wool cover only.
I highly recommend contacting robyn at possum pouches, she is so lovely and more than willing to help you get the right nappy for your bub
mel- congrats?
smoz- pink nappies on a boy? well, im just abt to get some girly printed fitted for mine LOL noones gonna see hehe
robyn @ pp- theres a wait on KK, its like till june or something. worth asking anyways, shes very nice
i put my lil monsta in a KK for the 1st time last night, LOVE them. hes on the smallest setting on the M so will last him awhile. im slowly changing my stash to fitteds. cant quite figure out what turned me off them in the first place (mebbe putting a NB in a BBH was a mistake?) now just gotta figure out how im gonna get rid of them.
im under negotiation to get some longies made, so happy
KatieRabbit - I don't own any BumG's but my guess would be that with pockets you can tailor the absorbency to suit your child a bit better than an AIO. You choose how much boosting there is in the pocket. Did that help at all?
Ali - Your DH sounds like he's wearing himself out a bit, maybe it's a good thing as he's learning just how much goes on in the house that he never realised before now. I wish I were in your situation (although pain free thanks). Could you please PM me the details of the exact amber necklace you bought?
NaNa - I've got no idea with the boosters as yes mine hasn't been pooped on either. It's just the one also. I was purchased at the same time as all the rest of my boosters, goes in the wash with the rest, and it doesn't happen to any others. Weird!
Well I just finished doing some tie dye singlets again. They're hanging on the line drying now. How do I post photos on BB? Do I have an album of my own? How do I link to it without posting the big ugly link? Hmm so many questions, I know nothing
BG - do whatever you need to in order to keep yourself busy and amused, otherwise you'll go stir crazy! If that means more fluff, then so be it!
WOPB: Nothing, and he's sleeping. Recipe for disaster? Hopefully not, he should go to the toilet when he wakes up.
Katie - from what i can tell, most AIO's allow you to add extra boosting - you just need to be careful you don't get leg gape from the boosting being too much for the nappy to handle...
i know i have bought an iishfly night nappy and it has SEVEN boosters with it!
i would be looking to try and find boosters that are nice and absorbant without being overly thick kwim?
NaNa - not much sleep happening here - though i'm about to head to bed again - ti's the most comfy place to sit while i'm doing my cross stitch. so much better than the seats out here! if i happen to feel sleepy, then so be it! i've nearly finished season 1 of CSI which i started watching a couple of days ago...
The worst thing about having IL's that don't ever call to catch up, or ever call to take DS for a few hours during the week - is having to listen to DS continuously ask to see "granma" and know that you are going to have to call to ask if you can come over because they won't friggin do it.
