So sad when they TT :( i love my nappies and they are no where near as cool as yours (well E's):
i have voted for you bex..... she has a lot of votes, good luck
Ssssshhhhhh... I'm in denial about her being 6 months old as it is!:
Fluffy mail! This is the first lot since um...... last July! I got my IB tuttos today and they feel soooo divine. I dunno how they'll go once bub gets heavier wetting but I most likely have enough extra boosters around to rig something up if needed.
I almost cried the other day when purchasing DD's underpants. They look sooo tiny unlike her padded fluffy bum!
WOCB: Raspberry slush AG
ETA: Purchased fluffy mail delivery I meant
WOW so much to catch up on. i havent logged on in a while! im still going "what the" at the state of origin nappies. that is crazy that they were even posted out to you guys.
what is fb MCN page??
there is a "modern cloth nappies info group" which is kinda helpful. more so if you sew (which i don't).
just wondering what you all put your little ones to bed in. DS wears cloth every night,but its a constant dilemma what to dress him in. wondersuits/coveralls are sooo tight to pull over the nappy. i wonder if it would be easier to just put pants and jumper on him (and then sleeping bag). i swear sometimes it takes me longer to dress him than it does to dress myself lol
I used to size up in wondersuits, well 2 sizes because DD has long legs and always seemed to have squished toes if I didn't go up one in length and then add another for the cloth. My bean pole of a child is super tall and growth spurts before she can gain any meaty weight. I could only cloth her at night until 8 months because her bladder grew too much and no matter what I put her in she'd flood. She's always been a restless sleeper and would wee every time she even stirred/rolled over resulting in soggy sheets. They weren't fun to change on a queen bed in the middle of winter at 3am with not only a soggy, grizzly baby but also a disgruntled DP waiting for a dry bed :lol:.:
I forgot how soft new minky nappies are. Now I know how my cloth addiction started lol. The Tuttos have been prewashed and feel divine!
Hahahaha cl. Love new fluffy fluff!!! And the boosters are so much softer too!! I love our tuttos!
I found a new page! Haha my mcns on fb. Her embroidery designs are only $29.95!!!!! She gave me the site she gets the designs from and i picked a ooak and only paid $8 more for it. Then she had a deal, buy 3 and they will be $25 each!!! So i got the ooak for $33, its a gorgeous peac0ck another one i picked that she didnt have (so paid half of the design) for $27.50 which says "if the crown fits" and the last one She didnt charge me any extra to send her a photo of my little pony and she will digitise it to put on a nappy with charlotte embroidered too!!!! So all up cost like $85.50 for 3 custom nappies when fluffybubs is over $49 for one with small embroidery!!!!! So cancelling my custom spot with FB's.
Oh and i won a pack on ebay: 2 bbh fitteds, 1 pul cover, 1 wool cover, i night booster and a wet bag all NEW!! This is to replace the 3 2nd hand i bought that didnt show up cause she is refunding me tomorrow.
Wocb: orange gnst and pul cover

Mrs bex - I took a look at her page, it doesn't seem like she has been making them for very long? Do you know if she's gone through a testing phase (something that's always concerned me with wahms!)
Just don't want you to get ripped off ya know? From people I know who are experienced and been in the game a long time - they are concerned also. Xxx
Mrsbexie are you bexie boo??? I have ordered a nappy from her too, a custom one with dds name embroided and butterflies, hope it isn't crap. I didn't even think to check that Mel :(
i dont know personally but ppl seem to be very happy with her naps but then that is only a select few that ive seen i dunno im not allowed to buy any more naps anyway except for DM's and one custom PP if they fit her well :) they dont do OOAK so i can copy a nappy they already made and its beautiful
WOMB: BBH magicall and a bandaid silly boy cut his fingers on the tongs i can seem to hide those well enough :(
WOJB: V2 baby safari
me too!:
DD1 TT completely at 15months, she was only 9kgs. i had to buy special undies at $8 a pair! more expensive than my own, laster forever tho!:
Bex.... jealous much! i cant wait til money is a bit free'er in this house so i can start buying up again!!!
Hmm I'd be happy to try one at that price. Gotta start somewhere. Someone pm me a link?
:D
Hope my bonnibuns King gee comes today!
Wowb- VHC bcheeks
Yes she is Lou:
I found the page, i want an AC/DC one. might wait till after the sale when things die down.
wowb- yellow bonnibuns workhorse
Yup I agree - gotta start somewhere. But I'd never buy anything that hasn't been tested properly ;):
Gotta start selling off my smalls :cry:
It's started already.... Growing up!!!! Can't believe in the next few months I'll have a 4.5 year old and a 3 year old. They are getting so old on me!!!! (and I'll no longer have 3 under 3 - ever again!!! Bit sad...)
Womb: sposie (daycare)
Woeb: ww - squeezed her into a medium, hope she doesn't poo.
Wosb: ww - medium
Mel, i know how you feel with them growing up, trent is 4 this weekend!:o
im looking at getting him a night pull up type one, every night for the last 2 months he has peed the bed, most nights more then once, even being woken to pee dosent seem to work now :( over buying night pull ups. and he wont use krystals night naps "there not cool" the huggies ones have buzz and lighning mcqueen on them :rolleyes:
woab, tutto
wokb: magicall
Nawwww, Mel! Boooooo to selling smalls. I don't know how you do it - I can barely even let go of nappies I don't like!
I have a bit of a thing for smooth PUL lately - I think it's because Miss E wees on her bodysuit at a lot of changes, but if I put her in a PUL nappy it doesn't matter too much, where the minky naps seem to hang on to the dampness a bit. They're not as pretty, but meh, it's winter and they all get covered up anyway.
WONB: Sage GK. Stuffed to the hills for the midday sleep she's not having
Bex- if I 'unlike' that BAA page will my vote for C disappear? It totally clogs up my whole page there are that many updates! and I don't have a huge interest in ruffles! Haha
Alternatively I could just hide it :)
I just hide them and then go through every few months and delete a bunch.
DP is really impressed with the tuttos and humoured me for a good 20 minutes last night watching me play with the settings :lol: I'm going to see how they fit on the newest addition before I order any more. I might get an odd shaped child again and they'd be an epic fail :lol:
We're starting TTing on the Pixie tomorrow after I have my midwife appt. She's rather keen I think. DP and I have been talking to her about the big girl underpants for the last few days and she wanted to put a pair on today (over a nappy). I've put all of the leg warmers with the knickers ready to go. It saves the whole coordinate 2 waistbands thing while keeping her warm. FX it works this round because I don't know how much longer before I'm waddling and having issues lifting her :lol:
WOCB: um........ can't remember... an AG of some description
Yeah just hide the posts by BAA... I do that with most of my likes! Haha.
We finally had a poo after 8 days!!!! She was wearing a tutto and it leaked everywhere!!! But after that long anything would have leaked!!
I am selling the 2 pink wool covers i have an i am getting 3 disana cause they just seem like they would fit better on my weird shaped child!! Lol.
Oh and i scored a brand new songbird cgr off NA! :D

Is it just me or has the buy and sell FB page become more of a information thread than a buy and sell fb page?!
Yeah, helle, kinda. It's like this thread only on a mega dose of steroids. I do like the way it's set up in sizes in the albums though. Not that I'm buying anything!
Needles here yesterday. Mumma cried more than baby did. But she is really achey in the Provenar leg, I can tell because she won't voluntarily move it, and won't take weight through her legs. Panadol is helping, but means no pretty nappies! So we are strip washing those today.
WONB: Monkey Doodlez original.
hi girls
this has probably been asked beofre, but does strip washing help with smells? its been pretty overcast and wet here lately and due to my small nb stash I have been putting the nappies in the dryer on low or on the airer rather than outside to get dry and some of the AIOs seem to be a bit pongy.
I keep trying the IB on him and they are still gaping at the leg :( I have a few of those too, so will be sad if he doesn't get to wear them. I might try my peapods and GK too, they will prob be the same but gotta keep trying them don't you.
wobb: sposie (washing is drying :()
I imagine it should help :)
Audax boo to needles!
Well IT CAME!!! Our bonnibuns king gee nappy!!!! LOVE IT!!!
Wowb rockmelon d'lish
You are probable reading the ONLY info page. There is 2 buy and sell and 1 that just has info.:
if anyone is chasing med monkey doodlez, med bcheeks demim, med bonni workhorse Im selling mine. :(
Nah, she means the buy and sell original. It's very different to what it used to be. The focus was buy & sell, and the chatter was kinda tucked away in the old format.:
I love all those nappies, Kylz, but I'm stashified. You don't wanna swap, do you?
Jaki - the King Gee is gorgeous!
Need to start using a new fold for my old skools. The pad fold just ain't cutting it. Any faves?
WONB: Terry flat + ME Rikki - how good are the sidesnap Rikkis over flats?! Awesome.
Sorry Hun Im selling up. Just isntworking :( Long Story:
It's the same page I have always bought and sold things on... Unless it's change? I haven't been on for awhile because I haven't had the fluffy urge..:
Anyone use woolies in here???
I have a pink one for sale, brand new, medium (but big!!! And high rise cause it comes up past C's belly button!!) ans brand new!! I am selling to get disana ones.
Oh and i scored fergus the frog tonight (CGR) with dh's permission! Lol
I got lots of fluffy mail today!!! 2 new bbb fitteds, 2 CGR's, ladybug wahm one, and my raok with an extra abby gro (used con so will raok it on...) all in the wash now!
Wocb bamboo fitted and pul cover both bbh

woo hoo finally got my PP naps i love love love them :)
so cute
WOJB: both sposies we are finally moving 2moro yay
Yay for movng J! We are househunting, and the prospect of moving is pretty daunting! How luscious are the PPs? They're my faves. And yours look pretty cute. I love that mauve minky on Jazzy's.
Well we scored some panadol staining last night. On a homemade booster, an old Bamboozle and an itti booster. One of SIL's. Whoops!
WONB: Penguins Bubblebubs. Daddy picked it.
triple j - what is the fit like on the petite peonies? i just put my name down on their custom list. i am on the list too for envious but i think it will be a long time before my name comes up on that one!! really feeling the need to have some pretties in my stash lately
its a smaller fit i put the M/L on jazzy on the medium setting which is a little small rise but fits well otherwise so maybe on the large shes almost 8 months and its a snug large on Jamie i'll need to find another jamie if i ever want to sell it lol
sposies again just waiting for jamie to wake up so we can take down the cot
Hey girls.
We are stuck in sposeis :(
Our weekend away turned into a week coz of the floods. We live right in the middle of it all. Finally heading home tomorrow!! OMG, back to routine, nappies & my computer!! :lol:
We're moving soon too. I have no idea WTF we're gonna do though. We gotta be out by Sept 1, but there are no rentals around & we can't afford to buy.
Trying to decide if we should stay there (my preferred choice), or move back here (really don't want to, but can afford to buy here easily) :(
Feeling a bit torn right now...
anyway, WOSB - Sposie :(
Hmmm... I saw the pic, and I think I fantasised it into mauve in my mind :lol::
teresa - I love the PP fit. They are my absolute favourite fitting nappy in my whole stash. They blow me away every single time I put one on DD.
My whole MG is trying cloth this week. Our babies are all 6 months old now and I told them it's never too late to start. I hope at least one of them goes for it.
WONB: White terry flat, white cover. Pure old skool.
i just put my name down for a couple of envious nappies with mumma loves bubba on fb! heres hoping i get one!
WOHB - bbh petite in sunshine
I put C's only petite peony on her today and I expected it to leak but 4hrs and no leaks!!!!!!! I am so impressed. Although, the size snaps kept snapping open and I think it is because C is so short that she had the side snaps on the tightest but I had to pull the nappy up to like her belly button to make it fit right! hahaha...LOVE it tho! I am on their customs list yay!
Clover: Oh how scary being in the flood area!! YAY to going home tomorrow!
WOCB: new BBH bamboo fitted (SOOOO SOFT) and pul cover. Can't wait for the Disana covers to come
Not one person in my mothers group uses cloth either! When I striped W off the other day they were all fascinated, most hadn't even heard of MCN!
Today is the first time my PP hasn't been a total fail :) and I'd just come to terms with selling it, was giving it one last chance!
I struggle with SS's tho, any tips on snapping? I get all gumby and have to keep changing it from side to side till it's right. Is the bottom snap supposed to be tighter than the top snap?
I love the velcro front on my small WWs, do the meds always have SS's or can you get velcro aswell?
Stalking bonnibuns tonight, she is putting some up on fb :D
Wowb- lion print hippybottomus
O oh. Bought 2. DH found out. Shot duck! Lol
