I'm a pockets gal too. Haven't tried issybears but I lurve GKs!!! They have been awesome on our little boy. I highly recommend at least getting a couple to try. The funtimes wick though, so anytimes & minkytimes are best.:
WOEB: Not sure- H put him to bed
WOFB: Bambineo fitted with yellow bummis super brite cover
Ooh yeah! Mind you I don't think I have saved any with the extra cloth I've been buying XD
But yep you do. I'd spend anywhere from $33 to $41 a week on nappies normally. And now I've spent less than $25 in a month. Mind you they were two for $50 on special, but still...
ETA: what is "wick"?
where the material tends to hold the wet. Cotton nappy outers tend to get soggy on the outside because the wee seeps and the cotton holds it
When the wee wets through the nappy, rather than leak out the sides.:
ETA: CL said it better :D
hi ladies, with the weather finally beign decent ive been motivated to use my cloth again. still cant use them at night because I' gets a really nasty rash but we use them all day again (got lazy waiting for the rash to heal and didnt go back to cloth for a bit)
WOIB- purple BBH magicall
Welcome back Skybie!
I just saw a pic of a lady's stash who had over 100 nappies for her one baby girl and they were all pretty ones and she had more coming. Could not beleive it!! She has some lovely nappies though.
For me this is a good pic to show my hubby how modest our stash is!!!
WOSB - Auriel size 0
HAHAHA! That wouldn't work with DP because he'd just say "oh wow. No, you can't buy more" :lol:
WOCB: Abby Gro Care Bears fleece basics with extra triflod in. I just tried getting her to sleep but no luck
being broke really helps not much though i just spent $30 and now i need new inserts for some of jamie nappies so that'll be another $30 or more if i buy some GK's lol
WOMB: V1 baby safari
WOSB: purple magicall
Didn't get my Itti :(
Got the BBH trifolds I forgot ordered tho! Sooo sooofffttt. So bad they're for weeing on!
WOJB: denim CT.
triple j - could you buy some bamboo fleece and just hem it to make your own boosters? would that work out cheaper for u?
afm, just waiting for the parcel to come from bbh with some new fluffy mail! i have had word from my consultant that its been shipped. yay!!
WOHB - pea pod
Can you get bamboo fleece easily? Or is it only via the net?
That's what these BBH must be. Bamboo fleece cos they're kinda fleecey (god, can you tell I'm blonde?) my CT ones are more like towel iykwim.
probably the net but it is still easy to get just not from a store
both about to be changed :)
Pffttt
You can't get anything good from the shops!
I have heaps of pockets but they just aren't working for us anymore, 3 different brands all with microfibre insets, I put 2 in and within 10 mins there is a puddle where harlee e has be been, it comes right through the outer later somehow and out the sides. They worked before, but now they have failed us. :( lucky I have lots if other kinds!
we dont do microfibre here unless its got bamboo as back up
WOMB: sposie and maz zebra cover (hides behind the computer to dodge the eggs) :rofl:
WOSB: reduce reuse recycle DM :)
i love the pea pod ones, and there bamboo inserts, going to try get some extra ones as back up cos they take forever to dry!! ive got a cheep one i found at the local op-shop for $2 that we use at nights, its awsome, she slept from 11 till 11:30 last night, and no leaks at all! not 100% sure on the brand, i think its hanna australia or something, but its got 2 towel like pillow type inserts. my stash is slowly growing! im currently on i think 10, and have more comming!
WOKB: pink pea pod
Really? I though microfibre was really absorbent, I dont get why it doesn't work. I'm currently making my own hemp/cotton boosters out of left over fabric when I made breast pads, so I might try them in the pockets then.
Wohb : bbh nn + blue squeekycheeks fleece cover.
