Thanks hun, halfway through last box!
Still outweeing heaps here but Monday is the worst day to start anything. DD seems to have changed her water drinking habits for the cooler weather so it's not as bad now.

lol! I only bought 2 I think but it lasts AGES! I only need a single (heaped) scoop per load of washing. I only bought them about 6-8 weeks back or something.
Yeah it does. I use mine for everything tho so it will get used up!
Ooh where is it on sale?
I got more fluffy mail today!!! 3 navy tuttos, a pink and a turquoise tutto, a red and a purple Delish SIO Both in medium an 2 wetbags... The pink polkadot one n the blue polkadot one. :D just one more itti order to come, then my 3 pop ins from the UK abd my el cheapo from china.
How are the BBH? Their hemp nappies are only $14.50? Do you need a cover with them?
WOCB: sposie.. Lol its night n i always seem to post at night on here!!

Mrs bexie - in answer to your bbh hemp question, this is from their website:
"Requires a cover to be worn over the top to keep clothes dry. Check out the bright colourful PUL covers available here at Baby BeeHinds"
It's a fitted nappy, so I've always used a cover. I like them, but like the bamboo ones better - not as scratchy and stiff :)
Mrs bexie- I haven't used one but I have a friend who had them and hated them, her daughter is a bit chubby and she found them a bad fit for her body type.
toys r us sell it now too!
yep! they advertised it about a couple of months after the big eco store boom with cloth nappies. :D
WOHB - bbh petite in latte
Hmm... I dont want to use a cover.,, i am lazy! Lol.
I will have to go to woolies today!
WOCB about to be her new turquoise tutto :)

Do any of you lovelies use washable breast pads? If so which ones are good?
I haven't had a chance being a late cloth bloomer but my sister was sooooooooo stoked with Maz'z BPs. She had heaps of attachment issues and sore nipples so the minky was HEAVEN!
Great thanx :)
I used maz pads too and they rocked! Twinkle lily makes some nice ones too. I got some for a girlfriend as maz didn't have any on stock at the time and she loves them. They're very similar.
CL, very true with the ES. I didn't realise there was such a boom on it at all!
WOJB mint CT
I made my own breast pads, and I have some GF ones... I love them. Mine are either flanny-bamboo-fleece or fleece-bamboo-minky or flanny-bamboo-PUL. I'm a freak so I like flanno on my boobs.
We got poo! It was so immense that we had to have a bath afterwards. The nappy (fleece GF) contained it all, but the changing process saw us with poo from here to billy-o.
WONB: Terry flat with black fleece liner, yellow dot Totswrap. Needles yesterday = panadol today, and I'm paranoid about staining. Like I said, freak!
In South Aust - ecostore washing detergent and the whitening stuff is also sold in Foodland (an IGA based in SA)
about the breastpads - Maz's all the way - have some to sell on (the smaller ones) as I have stocked up on her biggens that fit me better. (Okay there's more than a few in my stash that need to find a new home) PM me if you want more info about mine
WOBB - sposie :( currently out-peeing our 17 bamboo layer GFs and has some nappyrash fungus thingy on his penis so have to have some zinc on overnight :cry:
Yep I found Eco store at foodland at munno para and got really excited lol.
I didn't use cloth breast pads here but if we decide to have another baby I definately will be :D

I was thinking about BP... The only ones i like are the J&J ones an i go through like 3 boxes a week!!
I bought avent cloth ones and my god they were freaking useless!!!!!! They were flat so the milk just leaked out the bottom ans after 5 mins i cpuld feel how wet it was!! Maybe I should get some of Maz's...
So i have found using flushable liners makes C's nappy leak... I had to use a liner cause she has a little bit of a rash so i put cream on her n didnt want it on the boosters, but then she leaks! What do i do?
For those itti lovers, are the boos really as good as i have heard for nigh time? What covers do you use?
WOCB: sposie (lol again its night time!!!!)

Riteaid were HORRIBLE for me... Sounded like i had plastic bags in my bra. And they hurt my nipples so bad n i got nipple thrush cause of the plastic back. :( sucks cause they are way cheaper than j&j!!

do not get wolworths homebrand, you are better off with tissues! my safeway only had there homebrand ones, and they are crap, the sticky comes off and is a biatch to get off your skin, they move about and feel wet even if you havent leaked. how wrong was i when i though, better then nothing!!
leckert, have pmd you, small ones might be to big!!! everytime im feeding her, i swear i think of that eminem song "how you gonna breastfeed me ma, you aint got no tits":rofl:
ETA: oh right, cloth nappies... tried a prety good one today, done a poosplosion in it and didnt leak out the legs!!! thanks to one crafty lady.. wonder who it was ;)
WOKB: no idea, dad put her to bed, should check, if its not a sposie she will leak...
WOAB: magicall bout to be a tutto for bed.
Maybe I just don't know any better! That's got me tempted to try a different band ;)
I have tried pigion (from the bounty bag) but preferred riteaid.
I better mention nappies too since istarted all the BP talk! Ummm....
I'm super excited for all my fluffy mail to start arriving!!! I bought 2 more at a sale yesterday... A bonnibuns bamboo natural and a hippypottomus pocket nappy. Plus a wetbag... Itti bitty I think it was.
WOWB- sposie... Better get some night nappies after my day stash is complete :)
Hey if they work go for it!!! Thry are heaps cheaper than j&j so if riteaid are fine dont change! Lol.. (althoigh j&j are soft and lovely and have a good shape and are really comfy)
I want to get some night nappies too... But using the itti tutto overnight has got me freaked out cause of the smell!
Wocb: sposie cause she is still sleeping...

Plus W goes through 3 nappies a night so I'd need a fair few. I change him at each feed... Would you tend to let it go longer with mcn?
Jak - I dont usually start using cloth overnight until they stop pooing overnight. Normal day nappies are fine until then :)
Fluffy mail, fluffy mail, fluffy mail :D
Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can't wait to wash them tomoz and try them on!!!
WOWB- green babyland.
yay for fluffy mail!!
ive just had to set up the baracade arround the heater to fit a clothes horse in, fingers crossed they dry faster there... blasted melb weather grr...
WOAB: tutto
WOKB: itti... snif sniff... make that poo, off for a change....
Tell me about it Sarah, raining here too. Have 3 clothes airers with nappies on them in the garage. It's pretty cold here so I doubt they will dry any time soon! I need more nappies obviously, have to hassle Christie for some more customs me thinks.
Eta - yay for fluffy mail jak!
ive only got the 2 inside, and i have to do clothes aswell :( ive taken to hanging as much as i can on coat hangers, the pile is creaping out the laundry into the kitchen:o as long as A's nappies dry ill make it threw, most of hers are aio's tho so take forever!
ive been contemplating using the dryer at the risk of it burning the house down, just to keep up :shhh: df will kill me if he knew i was even thinking it!.
we have 2 clothes horses which i have to make do with during winter. we dont have a dryer but thats ok by me. havent needed one yet! i just hang all our clothes and nappies up during the day, heater is on overnight, and usually they are dry by the next morning as long as they are in the family room near the heater.
Q- I want an Abby gro but they are all sold out on the website... Does she do Market nights?
i dont know about abby gro, i bought one from her site and postage was crap, was told it was sent, about a month later it arrived via express. they are good, but i prefer to get them seccond hand so im not waiting forever, i havent seen her stock updated in a while tbh....
She hasn't had any stock in yonks. I'd heard she was meant to be restocking after Christmas but I'm yet to see anything. I also heard she was hit by the floods. She's a very vague lady!
Hmm bugger. The 'slushies' look gorgeous!
So I'm rather confused by my nappys and how to put together the boosters etc. I've only ever used pocket nappies.
Could be messy! LOL
Lol!!!
Usually the snaps will be colour coded! Which nappies did you get?
