Kitten - how do I tell??? Sorry I am fairly inexperienced in identifying the materials in the nappies - the liners I have used are microfleece, bamboo things (yep technical term!), um not sure what the others are I am currently @ my sisters in Cowra and the nappies are in Sydney
tk - which brands are they? I found laa could only do full velour linings at that early age, slowly she has grown out of it but i still prefer the natural inners!
MELBEL ! OMGosh I am picturing a half dozen NB widdlewuns how UBER squishy nice would that be!!!!
The nappies I can remember off the top of my head are:
* itti bitti d'lish AIOs
* bamboo prefolds
* terry prefolds
* flannel prefolds
I have greenkids but I know there is something else written on them but I can't remember what they are I really should make a list and carry it with me LOL
or liners in bamboo velour???? or throw away liners as they are more like a sposie???
DO you think that it might be a sensitivity thing on her who ha????
is she an outty or an inny??? (sorry a bit personal and please dont answer out loud...just a thought that the feel on that area might be annoying her)
BG - raw silk are one of the only things I haven't tried... I had forgotten about them so thank you for reminding me.
Maz - have tried the throw away liners - they work kind of... on average she will keep a nappy on for 15mins before chucking a tanty/screaming blue murder. She has an outy but isn't red and doesn't look irritated - I had thought maybe I was doing the nappy up to tight so loosened them but it doesn't make a difference so that is what makes me think it may be the materials or the feelings of wetness.
I know this sounds silly but how much can a baby pee & poo because in the day I went through a bizillion nappies each one had a decent pee and about every second or third had a poo - not a huge one but a poo all the same. It is like the material just makes her go.
don't be expecting a lot extra for having three kidlets hun - unless you have three or more in one birth, all you get is the same FTB as any other three kidlet family - which is all dependent on income. your ftba will go up, but ftbb won't change at all...
well, itti's are good, but they didn't quite contain nine days worth of trauma last night! oops! poor DD hadn't dirtied for so long, so mummy gave her a big tummy rub (again) and lots of cycling with her little legs, she had a sleep, and then watched us eat. after dinner, daddy got up to take plates out, and she let rip (didn't sound like anything more than wind). next thing she was hollering for HIM - daddeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee daddeeeeeeeeeeeeee, he called back that he'd be back in a sec cos he was busy. i asked if she wanted mummy. nope. daddeeeeeeeeeeeee, daddeeeeeeeeeeee. so he gave up what he was doing, came back to pick her up - and got covered! bwahahahah! i ended up having to change the nappy (he had too much on him to be any help lol) - then he went and washed the nappy, hand washed the clothes that had gotten stuff on them... so sweet!
i had an issue with the stitching on my baby safaris which are my absolute fav and i emailed them and they have offered to send me out another one woo hoo
TK, I second Bimboo's suggestion of elimation communication. It sounds a bit complicated trying to watch them for cues to know when they're about to go, but I've had great success just sitting her on the potty every 10-20 mins and making a 'psss' sound. ATM it's so hot she is only wearing nappies to feed and nap. If you are changing nappies every 10min anyway a potty is way easier!
