    I've discovered celandula ointment for EVERYTHING. That stuff is the bomb. Dunno what it'd be like with mcn's tho? It's kinda waxy..

    Paw Paw is fantastic and it's already looking better. I got the pure nutraceuticals one in a black tube. No nasties in at all! It rubs right in and doesn't cause issues with blockage in MCNs. I gave DD an hour with no nappy too!

    Maybe try googling whether you can use calendula with MCNs Helle.

    I will one day XD

    I can never find the black paw paw where I am, usually moo goo sorts out any rash for DS. Recently He came up with a mystery rash on his face and bum and after using everything from steroids and thrush cream to wheatgrass cream the calendula was all that worked in the end so it's my new fave

    Just googled. A majority say it's all good.

    On a side note. Anyone come across joyousbirth dot info? It's like BBs twin

    Don't shoot me down but some of joyous birth seems to be a tad extreme. I guess I was lucky with my hospital birth though, I had minimum medical intervention. I can understand why a lot of women would be angry with some of the more "optional" (not really necessary) methods in labour.

    DD is swimming in the pool with bathers bottoms on instead of a swim nappy today so hoping she doesn't decide to do #2s I think DP might panic a bit if his beloved pool gets soiled!

    we get nappy rash from sposies here too. for rashes tho we tend to rotate, depending on what/where the rash is the lucas paw paw (only one u can get around here that i can find) moo goo eczema cream or calendular and neem oil cream from the natropath.... but both the paw paw and calendular ones i have arent any good for mcn, so i just put our least fav ones on if its on his bum. i think we had used cortisone twice when his eczema was really bad *shudder* man i hate that stuff.

    wocb: blue jaquard bubbaloua the fact i havent changed 1 nappy today and DF for doing it without whinging lol

    Funnily enough The bulk of DS bum rash started clearing up once we started usingcloth and has stayed at bay since, just needing a bit of calendula to really knock it on the head. The one on his face would randomly flare up and we didn't know what was causing it (i think it might have been aircon as it was quite hot at the time and we were in and out of air con alot) but it seems to be settling now thank god.

    DD is allergic to sposies if I use more then one on her in a row. At night we have to because she wees so much and I PACK ON the PawPaw ointment as a barrier. It seems to stop it any nasty reactions happening. If she wears disposables with no cream she gets an outline of where the nappy was sitting in the form of red and hot knickers. It hurts her really bad too

    WOCB: Pink BBH magicall with a bamboo trifold in for her nap.

    Ouch! Harlee has not been in a sposie since she was 3 weeks old, we still have 3 sposies in the nappy bag.. I doubt they fit her anymore though!
    So who scored on the angel tears stocking? I managed to get a custom spot.. Yay! My first ever customs..I've always been too scared to get them because I don't like people to go out of the way for me! But I was brande because I want some special nappies for harlee

    Wohb: bbh night fitted and a white spotty cover

    Well I'm hoping to have a large ittibitti second in the mail today. Got a twinkle lily wool cover coming for when he's in flats at home and my abbygro. What the heck happened to my no more nappies til after Christmas? Spose I haven't bought a box of nappies in a month. And that box is still half full... And then I have another full box cos they were two for $50

    WOJB flat with a CT shell as a cover. He's napping... I can see a sheet change in my future

    It's amazing how much money you save off your grocery bill with cloth isn't it?....I didn't mean if you bought too many LOL

    I took the nappies into my playgroup friend in hossie yesterday. Most of them were the size of her bub so he won't be in them for a while. the nb one GAPED awfully, in a month or so i'll lend her some of mine and she can try them on her son prior to purchasing.

    WOCB: Orange Abby Gro and lots of paw paw. She had a nasty teething poo last night and it burnt her bum
