    We're back in cloth

    The nappy rash is down, moogoo is working, we have liners again so Grace is back in her fluffy bums! Sposies have been horrible for the last week but I'm still using the ones that were given to us so at least we haven't spent any money on them.

    Leckert - I'm using a BBH with a woolen cover for night times at the moment. Seems to be lasting for us.

    Mel - hope the packing is going well.

    Maz - Hope the x-rays went well today. DH had his and he has a fracture in his thumb I wonder when he will realise he is too old to play footy!

    Back to trying to make my frist nappy...

    Briggy's Girl:
    Thanks for the info on ecostore washing powder! I'll have a look when we go shopping this weekend!

    I have a top loader - is powder okay to use? I always thought liquid was better.

    Okay, hungry boy in my arms hunting for boobie so better try to get him fed and back in bed.

    I went to the b/feeding support group at my Early Childhood Clinic today and learned some great stuff - hoping to keep any more bouts of mastitis at bay!

    WOHB: another sposie MUST wash nappies tomorrow no matter what

    leckert - great that the NR is settling down! What a relief. For the night nappies, you can use whatever you have for quite a while, just make sure that you use bamboo or hemp inserts if possible, since you tend to get compression leaks with microfibre if bubs isn't moving around a lot yet. A stay-dry liner or inner will help to keep bubs feeling dry. A piece of micro-fleece is easy. And a good, snug fit around the legs to prevent leaks. You're so lucky to have such a good sleeper!

    lilprecious - right back atcha! yup, Ecostore is good stuff. Powder in a top-loader is no trouble, and you only use less than a tablespoon, so no worries about clumps and chunks!

    ok, DS has woken up already. Half an hour is NOT long enough for a nap when we've been up since 5...
    hi to everyone else!

    WOAB: Blueberry, soon to be swaddlebees AIO pocket. Love them!

    Boo!!

    Did you miss me? I decided to take a few weeks offline.

    Nappy news... Em is in sposies atm thanks to a challenge leaving her blistery again. I am looking forward to when she TTs!! I dont run out of nappies as fast with only 1 ft nappier.

    Leah is 10 weeks now, still only vax and bm have gone past her lips and she is over 2kg heavier than birth weight. she has a chunky waist and skinny thighs which is making leg gape issues.

    WOLB: Choc bubbles CT.

    welcome back Ali! I missed ya! I wanted to ask you about clothies in Townsville. I have a friend in Airlie who's due in November. Wants to go cloth and would like to see some IRL. I know there's a few MCN suppliers up that way... can you hook me up?? Who can I send her to?

    Arimeh - sneaky! What's going on?? You and MissyMel going to have a big old Mel fluff convention soon?

    WOAB: nuffing. He's streaking from the bathroom to the bedroom right now!

    BBH warehouse is up here, The Nappy Bucket is here, There are a few more. Saram has the nappy network info for townsville so she would be the best one to ask.

    Bleugh, I have a cold. Whenever I get sick I have a glandular flare up (you never get rid of Glandular Fever) and am out of it for a few days.

    no secret squirrel here - just excited about my latest woohoo

    Welcome back Ali I hope you recover soon from your cold.

    to everyone else. I get a chance to quickly pop on now and then, but stuff to pack, things to wash, walls to paint and all that. DS did a pee in the toilet today though, that was pretty exciting.
