Cloth Nappy General Discussion #192

[helle]

those abby gros are made with a lining of maiden mills fleece which is water repellent, so they don't need PUL or a cover. I have some fleece Auriels too, a few other nappy makers use the same sort of concept (Genessa Forge is another who makes fleece nappies). Essentially they are healthier because the fleece is more breathable than PUL (but not as breathable as wool). hth <3

nappy news here - mum stuffed my little squirt, I'm waiting on so much fluff I could pee my pants with excitement and I am proud to say I made some big butt baby pants that are perfect for over cloth!!

oh and lucky I do have some more pockets on the way - I used Miss A's last ones from the shelf today (others still drying/in bucket) and had to grab the last pocket from the nappy bag. It's not even winter yet!

WOMB - retro sage/pink dot beetlebum pocket
WOAB - blue butterfly embroidered SS pocket

Thanks!! I'm a bit in love. They're so squishy!

Hi ladies, I'm a returning member & wanted to pop in & say hello because I'm rather addicted to cloth! i've been using cloth since Emersyn was 2 weeks & 3 days old, and have never looked back! I mostly use pockets, but also have some fitteds I really like, and use prefolds on the odd occasion.. I seem to go through phases! Anyway, I'm Emma, & have 2 DD's, Gabrielle/Gaby (4) & Emersyn (8mo)..

I thought I'd ask you cloth guru's....what would you recommend for just a everyday nothing fancy nappy to extend our stash a bit? Bubs is due in May so just thinking I would to have some extra's so I don't have to worry about drying times ect. Happy for any suggestions...don't mind either AIO's or fitteds, but good for a newborn. So what do you think??

[helle]

terry (or flannel - they fold smaller) flats with a twinkle lily wool cover
OR mother ease rikki cover if you want leg gussets... i find folding flats different ways, some styles contain NB poop (as I discovered with 12 month old stomach bug poop)

Probably wasn't very helpful huh?

[~Lashes~]

I DID IT, I DID IT!!!
i finaly figured out how to fold flats!!! woo go me! i decided yesterday as i cbf finding a dry nappy or digging threw the washing basket to get all the inserts ect, that id test one out on dd, i dont it!! 3 flats she has been in, 2 yesterday and one right now! so proud of myself, now i can keep bub in cloth from the start and not worry about running out of small tiny ones!
ive found lately that im reaching for the abby gro's, ittis and the lone wild child more then the others, might have to save up a bit n get mostly those, then get rid of the others also got to find better night nappies when i get the $$ the pea pod night boosters are no longer cutting it, so ive got one sandman, 2 out of every 3 nights its sposie while it dries, so cut about that!!

oh and i had my first "stranger" ask about our nappies, i changed dd in the waiting room at the midwives as there toilet is tiny, and one of the ladies started asking me about her nappies, how easy they are to use and washing/changes ect, she said she wanted to with her first but the cost put her off, she was realy impressed and going to look further into it for her next bub!!

with a every day nappy, at the moment our "fillers" are pea pods, i love that i can put her in one at mil's it gets filthy (almost black) from her crawling arround, but washes out clean every time!!

Well, I'm about to try an Abbygro & a Bubbamoo.
Small AT & 2 (or 4?) home made wahm nappies & considering a WW from a lubly BB gal (who hasn't got back to me about it hint hint)

I have a couple mould spots, very light on a couple of boosters from being away last week
(Will never leave them for more than 3 days with out washing again!!!!!)

What you guys think I should do? Its only on the bamboo bits, so no colouring, should I spray with a little bit of bleach? Don't really wanna use a mould remover in case it does something to them...

I have a mould spot on a CT. Do you think I can get it out? I think it's just stain now and is on the underside but I washed mine on canesten rinse then hung it in the sun. It's slowly fading. If you have no sun send it over to me, it's a million squillion trillion degrees here ATM.

I'll just email it to you for a few hours then helle?
We never have silly sun! Well thats what it feels like!

Maz ones are quite narrow in the crotch. DD can actually walk properly in those and she has quite a narrow stance so it's hard for her to walk in others

Oh Mel... LUSH!!!
