oh what a wonderful day for nappy washing! our BBB's finished drying in the sun this morning so I washed them again and rehung them outside about 2pm so hopefully will be able to wash again tomorrow...I know its worth it all this prewashing but I'm hanging out to use them rofl! the pockets on the other hand are all stuffed and sitting in Susie's room ready to be used. DH is working from home today and sat down with me to stuff the pockets without being asked..so he could get used to how to do it just in case what a sweetie!
we've hit 10 days since her last decent pooh! couple of 'dollops' on friday lol but still waiting for the big one! poor love!
Oh thank goodness cz otherwise Id feel like Ive negected my cloth Its been 12 months and Ive never strip washed Just put up with it when absorbancy started to go.
I got my Hautes today
I've got some BBH fitteds coming for DS, so I will have enough to get him out of disposables at night, and I have been given permission from DH to get DD another 2 or so night nappies. I have my eye on some trim GF super nights, but just waiting till after DD's birthday to have a better cash flow. So by Xmas, I will be sposie free
I am also going to put the things I learnt at the nappy making class on the weekend to the test, and make some myself.. More as a hobby to get my mind working a bit..
Was planning for my nappies to dry overnight but the damn sprinkler came on and i had to re spin cycle them to wring them out. One time you curse the fact that bamboo is so absorbant
DP came home to find our lil one almost crawling, she gets her legs under and caterpillars along with her face on the floor. all we saw was this pink camo nappied butt in the air as it was hot so i let her roll around in her fluff all day. Was soooooooooo cute. still trying to hunt down super cheap nappies because I am about 8 off full time capacity if the weather sours slightly. been drying in 1/2 a day until yesterday where we had cloud and it got mega humid. DP is sticking by his buying ban even though I told him how much each of the current batch of sposies is worth (44 cents a piece) and I have a front loader washing machine so it's super energy/water efficient, I just give it a rinse prior to wet the nappies and half flush wee out.
WOCB: Last night's sposie as daddy's alarm didn't wake today (for once) her but soon to be Tangerine CT couture as she's stirring
This was a double post but now I can use it to ask my question...
WWWAAAAAHHHHHH WWWWAAAAAHHHHH
We have had the LS for sometime now but I haven't hooked it up cause we were using sposies and then when we did use cloth it was easy enough to give a quick rinse under the tap... but I decided to bite the bullet and get DP to hook it up...
IT DOESN'T FIT
The silver T-connector doesn't fit onto the toilet end... I know I need a thingy (yep I am using the technical terms ) but I don't know where to get it or what it is... do I just go to Bunnings and ask them for the thing that will make it fit onto the toilet?
That probably makes no sense but it is complete usual TK language when it comes to these types of things
TK - call or Email LS direct , they will help you out , in the past they have sent out spare parts so you dont need to go to bunnings and look for the peice , and they are aust made and owned so they are always williing to help (well they were last time i spoke to them )
incase youve all missed me , ive been on holiday
ok , heres the exciting bit : yesterday - i got ..... (drumroll) 2 ( yes 2 !!!) brand spankin new auriels and a beetlebum inside out !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wooo hooo !!! oh the auriels !! so devine ...
id make gabbi model them but while we were out ... gabbi picked up a stomach bug and is sick , so sick she keeps dry reaching to vompit (ds' speak) but has nothing in her tummy to bring up . comatose on the lounge right now ...
oh and some more sad news ... my MED ittis have to go to a new home now that gabbi is getting bigger (yes omygosh shes getting bigger !!! 9.1 kgs now ) and is drinking soy formula , she is out peeing the ittis in no time at all ...
its either cut back on the formula or say bye bye to my ittis
in regards to LS spare parts NOPE they don't send out free spare parts anymore...tried that and they wanted $70 for the friggen part!!!! plus delivery...would have cost more than a new LS....
TK - we had the same issue in our house in Queensland because it was an older style toilet - so we just went into a plumbing shop with the parts and explained what we needed and the guys were really awesome at helping. Better than bunnings cos they are more specialised I suppose (we did try bunnings, but just got a WTF??? expression from everyone that we talked to)
So don't stress out yet. There's always a solution
we STILL don't have our LS installed yet - DH is such a slacker! and my bro ((who i trust much more than DH anyway) has been flat out! nappies get rinsed and that's it - no biggie here
not a lot of nappy news again - got a couple of Bits For Bots the other day - they are so cute and summery! have to prewash them (DH missed throwing them in with the nappies yesterday) and then we'll start using them. DD finally got a day yesterday where her nappy could be flashed - the first proper warm day we've had! she loved kicking around in T and nappy, playing in the grass with her bare toes... was so cute (and of course we got lots of pics lol)
WOEB - very baby fitted and white dot minky MAL - sleeping in mummy's bed
The piece you need I'm pretty sure you need and old style thread diameter one. was looking at the dimensions of the LS attachments somewhere and am holding off til we move more for the fact it wouldn't fit our loo. Our bunnings sucks for plumbing parts so plumbing store would be way better. We had issues getting a certain washer to fix our apparently too old taps (only about 5 years old but older style) but they aren't specialist plumbing supplies so it's normal they'd really only carry what was standard.
WOCB: smelly sposie, it pongs right now but she's sleeping and letting me have a coffee in peace so not waking her. Just reconstructed her CT couture pink camo ready to go when she wakes.
i love micro fleece liners so much easier to clean poo a laundry sink does help lol
all my new nappies have finished their prewashes and are on his butt now and i'll try the BBB tonite and see how it goes he doesnt really pee more at night compared to the day so their normally ok but i gotta get me some more large covers to fit over them
WOJB: Giraffe CT couture folded down lol hes still to small to have it full size
Im so in love with these Magicall Multifits Im considering selling all my sized nappies and OSFMs I dont use often (like GKs etc) and just have them! I only prewashed twice and the nappy lasted 6 hours and wasnt even soaked! Theyre so gorgeous!!
Aidens got a cold so hes home from daycare and Ive had like 3ish hours sleep thanks to this cold of his and teething I think Ill have to nap when he does to be up for the MAL stocking
Cant miss that!
.
what a sweetie!
Its been 12 months and Ive never strip washed 
Just put up with it when absorbancy started to go.
) but I don't know where to get it or what it is... do I just go to Bunnings and ask them for the thing that will make it fit onto the toilet?
and is sick , so sick she keeps dry reaching to vompit (ds' speak) but has nothing in her tummy to bring up . comatose on the lounge right now ...
