Cloth Nappies #182

[~Raven~]

Hi everyone

I'm waiting for fluffy mail (somewhat impatiently). I broke my nappy buying ban BIG TIME but can justify it because I sold some. Will be sharing pics when it arrives which hopefully will be soon I wonder if anyone can guess what it is or if they saw it...

Good to see you back Maz

Mel hope the inspection goes through alright!

Anna don't worry, I had nothing but resistance from Caleb and all of a sudden he decided he wanted to. I'm working on poos ATM and it's hard work getting him to even sit down to do one

Bimboo that dust looked so freaky. Hope your nappies wash up alright!

Miss R has finished her feed so I have to cut short. BBL!

Maz - were they the GF Nappy Knickers on Vy? I ordered a Pink Ai2 Windpro Fleece Pair of the Med Knicker Nappies to trial on DD to see if I want to use these when the time comes to upgrade to a larger size for Elly exp as will hopefully have 2 (and only 2 - Bimboo has me slightly worried now ) in cloth so can justify buying a little stash of larges for later.

Does anyone use swim nappies? I have a Imse Vimse one I bought for DD but was suprised it was just a little plasticy underpants type thing - are they all like that?

WOEB: Hmmmm . . CT Basix Red

Baby sleeping in YAAAAAAAAY! Except some moron from Melbourne rang my partner's mobile and woke me up. Not having a go at Melburnians because I am Ex myself, just inconvenient the time diff.

Charmalea-great those ibs are getting replaced. It's only fair if it's a dodgy batch.
Quick Q: has anyone found they need additional boosters with the Bonnibuns aio? Thinking I have a freakishly heavy wetting baby here or i might need to wash a couple more times to get absorbancy up. Love the fit on her, they dry great and aren't incredibly bulky. she's started rolling but gets stroppy if I put a bbh or ct on because they're quite bulky.

Ciao ciao

Hi all

Yeah swimming nappies are just like little plastic undies, they are designed just to hold poo in, so it hopefully doesn't escape in the pool. They are not absorbent at all so its ideal to put them on bub just before going in the water or risk getting wee'd on. You would be surprised how many parents( including me) i see at the pool with wet patches on them...I have a new job as a baby swimming instructor.

Ok ladies have a question here I have just been given a pile of minappies by a girlfriend who brought them used them once and then went to sposies. They are just plain terry nappies with some flannel inside. I was wondering if i could jazz them up at all.
I was thinking of having a go at making a few covers to go over them as well. BUt wondered if maybe i could dye them somehow

Welcome back Maz looks like you guys had a blast

[Ryatha]

Tan - I've just ordered some dyes to jazz up the fitteds I'm making out of bamboo fleece, we could have a dying party to try to work out how to do it? I'm also experimenting with different fabrics to make covers and pockets, so company is always welcome (not that I am a great sewer or anything )

Charmalea, good to hear about the IB's

ok, fred's woken up, need to play!

Hi all,

On swim nappies - what do you women recommend? I have no idea even where to start!

[~Raven~]

I got a swim nappy from the pool! Not sure on the brand but I figured they wouldn't have an issue with it of it came from them

A quick show off of my fluff

I smell poo *sigh*

I'm over real estate agents. They never know whats going on and give you stupid STUPID advice (that really, as a conveyancer I should have known better than to listen to them)

*sigh*

WOAB: BumG but he did a HUGE poo before. Thank god he was in a widdlewuns.
WOMB: Poo in a nappy of some description. She's under the kitchen table and I can still smell the stench.

Awww, sucks you got a bad realtor. We got a good one. Two counter offers in 36 hours and an open home was scheduled this weekend! Smelling a close on the deal tonight!

Best of luck trying to get the real estate sorted Arimeh!

On the fluffy front, guess who forgot to put a nappy liner in when lil one did a giganto poo yesterday Proves I shouldn't talk on the phone pre coffee when sleep deprived and try change a nappy! On the bright side to quote an earlier post the MCN was fantastic "pootainment" and if she was in a sposie it would have been an up back job!

gorgeous sammi!!!

[briggsy's girl]

hmm, having a sad cloth moment - not sure if DH just didn't put the nappy on properly this morning or if we have an issue! i LOVE DD's widdlewuns nappies - but she had the worst plumbers crack after her nappy went on... i had to change her into another one (we were on our way out). sigh...

WOEB - i think an iishfly fitzall - not sure. DH has been on nappy duty the past few days cos i've been feeling blah

[Kitt3n]

BG - how many kg's is E now? At 4 months Laa was into medium widdlewuns, are you using the smalls?

[rhyb]

Well Im finally back! I started looking for MCN today (I know slack right?) and have bought a 3 pack of CT to try when the girls come and am looking for any other bargains that you guys know of. Im hunting for mostly smalls and OSFM as I have heaps of Mediums and DS is still a medium
How is everyone?

[briggsy's girl]

Kitten - E was weighed today and is just under 6kg so maybe we could go up a size (i have some yummy mediums but i LOVE my smalls - they were the first mcn's she fit properly!)

Hi Rhyb! How you all feeling! Hmmm, I was on the BBH website and they are clearing out their smooth magicalls with snaps for $17 I think and now I can't remember who it was maybe nappies downunder or something like that, and they were clearing out their natural cotton prefolds for $2, and GF has I think a buy 6 get one free or buy nappies get cloth wipes free type sale but that's the extent of my nappy searching recently. I apologize for my not so useful info I am probably the least 'in the know' person on this thread 'sighs'. So, off the point but I'm dying to know . . how big is your belly compared to a pregnancy with a singleton, does it feel very different in there??? (Sorry, nosey)

[briggsy's girl]
