Ryatha - Bicarb is perfect for nappy washing. Your nappies will shrink more on higher temp settings and it is likely to lift the PUL on your AIOs and things like that.
Miss Leah is doing well, filling nappies when DH is on change duty and feeding well. My supply is settling but OMG right now - OUCH!!!
I only do one prewash too. Then I just use them until they are full. We haven't had a leak yet. I actually think it's a waste of water, that's my reasoning for not doing it. But I hot wash nappies and that is supposed to help with the less prewash thing.
WOHB: GF super night. Yes he is down, hopefully for the night *cross fingers*
Excellent - Thanks again for the info on the pre-washes - seems like I have done all mine then... I guess as a new born I'll be changing them pretty regularly anyway and they can get extra washes then. I'll remember to put them out in the sun or rain, we seem to be getting both every day at the moment... strange Adelaide weather!
Now I am just waiting on some IB's I've ordered and hunting down some more boosters, I only have 6 and I have a feeling that is not going to be enough!
Alioops, glad to hear that you and Miss Leah are doing so well.
you might find that you wont need boosters in the beginning, your changing them every 1-2 hours anyways because they poop so much! Ashton never even wet right through anything I put on him in the beginning, so you might have some time to build up your boosters Have you thought of making your own? If you are handy with a sewing machine or even better have an overlocker, you can get some bamboo fleece or soemthing similar online and make some boosters yourself. They are super easy to make!
WOHB: same as before cos he is STILL SLEEPING!!!! YAY!
fluffy all round for me...been a bit down in the dumps lately and well DH relaxed the purse strings for some fluffy cheer up....
