    i dont have a LS yet but hoping to get one. DH thinks he can make one himself and that it wouldnt be too hard to do. otherwise i will scrape off as much as i can and just do a rinse cycle before doing a wash cycle.

    Yup I scrape off as much as I can with a spoon into the toilet and then rinse the rest off in the laundry tub. I did have a LS but sold it because the new house didn't have any taps to connect it to in the toilet - one of those ultra modern toilets!! Everything is hidden.

    Who said something about the pressure being too much in the LS? You can turn the tap down that its connected to to make it less pressure - either that or don't press the LS trigger down all the way, I only needed to do half way - otherwise, yes, everything would be covered with poo!!!

    I put in my requests yesterday for the embroidery to go on my WW's - couldn't decide on a last one though, so will have to let Christie decide for me!!! Can't wait to get them!!!

    most off dd's are solid, so i flick it in the loo, when they arnt i scrape as much into the loo as possible. all mine get rinsed befor going in the machine. (mainly to give df peace of mind that his clothes wont come out with pee or poop left from the nappy wash

    yeah J's used to be like that too, you could just roll them off! But now, with his fascination for grapes along with teething

    So, i have enough cloth for three days without washing... I've washed, obviously... but i have two days worth still out on the line (lazy much) and another days in the washing machine and i still have, i think two nappies in the nappy bag and about 5 or 6 still sitting around on the couch. Score ><; I spose that's really four days, huh? I still wanna get another twinkle lily cover tho, for when the other one is in the wash... and replacing all my Cts with Ag's wouldn't go astray either

    I have missed some errrr solid matter in the past and pulled a few towels out with a half masticated piece of food/suspicious errrr smudge on.... It must have gotten stuck between the layers of one of my nappies in epic proportions (half of the job).

    With my LS I barely have to squeeze the trigger. It does a nice horizontal spray that acts as a lever for the solid mass. I've only had one accident with it and I was holding it at the wrong angle which caused a massive splashback complete with solids.... That resulted in a thorough shower straight away

    CL thats horrible but really funny!!
    ours rnt solid enough to just roll off, they seem to coat the nappy a couple of cms thick with the occasional lump of undigested food *shudder* so scraping it is...blah i must invest in a ls i think. i said i didnt need it but that was before real poo....

    DD's vary between roll off and warpaint thickness. It depends how much yoghurt or watermelon she's consumed. Depends how long between a poo too. Some days she'll do one morning after brekky, one after lunch and one after dinner and they're all good but the days where she saves her whole um... haul til after dinner I dread. DP copped one of those last night I was gagging on the smell so he offered to change! Poor man not being rewarded for a good deed

    Haha crazy lady! I just experienced my first poo filled wash.. there were little chunks of carrot looking peices in our clean washing.. I really should start rinsing these nappies! I was trying to flick off the chunks while I hung it out on the line.. but towards the end of the load there were too many chunks to deal with so I ripped it all off and am currently doing another wash.. and then I will do another one.
    So grose!
    Yes our ls is too powerful, dh said he will take the pressure down da da, da da.. but he still hasn't... he's a plumber so he doesnt know how to do it (grrr!)

    Eeeewwww!!!

    I make sure all chunks get scraped off, usually a massive skid mark is all that's left.
    Def gonna copy mels poo spoon tho, cos if i had a dollar for every time my fingers break thru the toilet paper...

    Who knew poo could be so fascinating.

    Oh, i have a tutto on the way!! Can't wait to see the fit! Traded for it, so hopefully will have it tomorrow
    I'm thinking I can do cloth while away... will see how we go. The idea of bringing back all the dirty nappies in the car doesn't appeal to me...

    Teresa, thats why most of my nappies are second hand. I could never afford to buy them all new. & the ones that don't work I can sell on
    If the tutto works I might get a couple more, but I have enough to wait for a sale

    I'[m not patient enough to wait for something I want to come up second hand, or to hunt it down. I've gotten some BBH trifolds second hand... well sorta, the lady had only ever washed them.
    in saying that tho i think half my stash is "seconds" or i've got it on sale...

    You'll lurve the tutto

    Teresa, I have a "hubby stash" which are the cheapie pockets. I put the pickets in ready to go so all he has to do it put it on, no having to hold boosters in or anything XD He has however put a cushie tushie on him before...
