Ha Lmao Mrs. Bexie no, just a BIG sook. I am freezing today so used the reverse cycle heat. I am in heaven! I am always the first one that puts a jacket or sweater on. Yep, lived here in Qld now for almost 9 years...... You should see me when I go home to Canada in the winter. I love the snow but I rug up like the world is going to end... All I wear is North face and have just ordered a new jacket for this winter here. I think I am now Australian.

Mel: Does it snow it where you are?

Haha!! Not my exact location, snows on the mountains though, think they are an hours drive away?

Morayfield Mrs. Bexie.... And the news just said it is going to get colder. Seriously??

[~Lashes~]

baby legs are great i didnt like them at first, but i use them under dresses instead of stockings fluffy nappies look odd with stockings! lol.
ive been thinking of using them insteadof pants for dd1, she is 15mo and size 2 pants are to friken tight arround her thighs! cant win with that girl if its not a nappy fitting issue its a pants one.

got a v3 issy to test out as somone said they would be a good fit for cunky monkey, if not its a cute pink cameo one for dd2's stash.

WoKb: large magicall
WoAb: purple bublebub

[WeeMansMummy]

I got a V3 issy too Sarah! The watermelon one

[~Lashes~]

i havent actualy "got" it yet, its one of many on there way.

i was thinking of selling the mediums, but then realised A will grow into them in a few months!

i have to sit down and sort out what i have and what is actualy *needed... so complex cos excuses get used for something you want so it turns into a need! lol

Morayfield Mrs. Bexie.... And the news just said it is going to get colder. Seriously??

Get out!! im at Burpengary.

peanutter, i found Bepanthen (sp?) is really good. agree with AE,sposie and some big gun cream overnight should do the trick.

[mummajj]

I bought rockin green bucket sprinkle stuff... it is the rasberry one so you sprinkle a little on the bottom of the bucket and it smelss yummy

i ordered this the other day too. is it good? i also got a cute grovia wet bag.

[lilmisspositive]

Hey Mummajj, Get out, that would be right. I felt like the only northsider at some points.
I have a thread started in the Qld section for a meetup at Northlakes if your interested. : )

[WeeMansMummy]

My issy is only in transit too Sarah

Q about it tho... It's specifically says only suitable for day use, but comes with the extra night booster. So why would you only be able to use it during the day?

Wowb- issy bear mushies print + night booster

Good morning ladies.

Have a question regarding detergent. I have enough nappies to last me 2 days without washing but prefer to do it every morn and then chuck them outside to dry, ready to use for next day. Here is the thing... Would I really need special detergent for my mcns? I have bambooty and Itti bitti. I have used both the rockin stuff and my regular Tide* (That is a Canadian laundry detergent.) and I have not noticed a difference. Just not sure if it is worth it to buy special nappie detg if not needed. Please help.

I also was wondering about the inside flushable liners. I am currently using them in early arvo as that is when ds decides to poo BUT forgot yesterday and it was just as easy to pop it in the toilet.... I know ds is early days.. almost 2 months. The poos will get messier ect but should I stock up on the liners or just leave it? What do you do?

Wokb: bambooty train

[Arimeh]

Hey tams - I only use liners when I need cream on a rash or if they are using a flat cos poos go everywhere in a flat nappy lol!!!

As for detergent - I use the earth choice one cos it's $2 a bottle - and I use it for all my washing so not something I buy especially for nappies

Have to say I'm loving my Mandy macs - so underrated as a good fitted nappy I reckon.

Womb: sposie (daycare)
Woeb: ww
Wosb: itti

[WeeMansMummy]

Tams I use aware sensitive for naps and baby clothes. I r personally don't think it matters. And I've never used a liner. I just rinse the poo off and the sun bleaches out the saint later

Wowb- WeePantz!!!!!!
