Cloth Nappy General Discussion #197

[WeeMansMummy]

well i was always told to hang from the sides as hanging from the tops stretches out the elastics.

na i'm not a huge fan of the pop in on my babe. i get gaping at the sides and they just don't seem to fit her well. she's only 5.5mths but already 8.5kgs so a chubba lol not sure if it's her body shape or what and they seem to give her a bit of a rash. i love how quick they dry though! bbh's are a pain for that reason. bring on summer, actually make that spring. too hot here in summer.

have a nice time in coffs. will you be here to check out the bello market?

I've not been to the bello markets in yonkers!!! Which weekend is it on?
We love bello, went on our first date there too
We also like to drive out to taylors arm too. Such a beautiful drive in which ever direction around coffs. Can't wait!!!

Lou- so excited you got a new SP, that was devastating!

[ellasmummy]

Ooh sounds nice jak, how long you going for?

The SP chick is such a champ she did it for $30!

WOCB - still that red itti bitti + extra booster, as still sleeping :0 hope it holds up!!

[WeeMansMummy]

That's fab Lou!

Well we got a great tax return... I wonder how many nappies I can buy without getting in trouble!

Got fluff today, forgot it was coming. Dh was home of course!!! Lol

[ellasmummy]

Always the way! DH works night shift and is home most of the day so always sees the postie. Last few days hes been staying back and of course no fluffy mail!!!

[WeeMansMummy]

I got an issy bear custom slot
Have asked for spongebob emb on minky gelato aqua sea. Gonna be great! I wanted a double slot but took so long deciding what I wanted they sold out had my cat in the hat nappy all planned out too

I've told my cat sitter to hide all packages while we are away

[Crystalwings]

haha WWM - your bad lol

i got some more medium pink bbh covers today in the post which was good as i'm feeling a bit depressed this week with going back to work. I also just scored my first GF nappy second hand so i'll see how that goes. I'm off to buy bub an amber teething necklace tomorrow as well. Retail therapy feels better when you feel like c^$p lol

mum has been using flats on bubs all day so she had a bit of a rash but will be all good after some moogoo and mcn

WOHB bbh with wool cover

[WeeMansMummy]

I finally got a WW!!! Yay! A choc minky with a red monsty emb
Hope I love it as much as I loved the velcro smalls. Not a huge fan of SS but I do love our miamoo SS.

I'm outa control. And the firefly stocking is tomoz!

Maz stocking tonight, I'm after some BP's for my pg friend

[Crystalwings]

I saw that WW nappy. very cute. BTW the bello markets are on the 3rd saturday of each month so it's the 20th

Just scored my first maz cover in the stocking. Hope i love it as much as everyone else seems to.

Gotta go to bed and stop looking at nappies lol

I had to use my pop in today as a last resort and i was impressed. no leaks and it was on for like 5hrs as we were shopping.

[ellasmummy]

Oooh got some Maz BP's and a cover

[~clover~]

Heya girls! Who's heading to Bello markets?? Lol, I live just down the road! (Well 40 minutes down the road )

Haven't been in here for a while. May or may not have something to do with using sposies over the past month or 2 I went away & took them with me... then came home lazy & bought another pack!

Its warming up now, & we're all out, so its back to cloth! Just scored 2 Maz covers. Can't wait for Moo to get out in her flats & covers Now she's bigger & getting around they'll be seen more. Her MCN's too of course, but flats are just being too easy atm! Easy to hang, easy to dry! (Back up as tea towels if desperate!)

Ok, popped in, said hi, now I should go do something constructive. Like hang out nappies

WOSB - AbbyGro... thats not going to last the night... Oh well, maybe her slight fever will reduce the wee just a tad.

[MrsBexie]

Wmm me too!!! I got a pink geisha with a cotton pannel on the front. Very excited but dont think a large will fit for ages...

Where is bello markets??

Welcome back clover!! When we move we are goin to have to use disposables and not looking forward to it! But once we are in townsville, the warmth will hopefully encourage us to get back into cloth asap!

Bought wool wash today cause both her covers are due for a wash and lanolising. I am too scared to put them in the washing machine to wash, so how do i do it in a bucket?? I have lanolising down pat, just have no idea how to wash them first! Haha

Anyone like the new itti prints? Not a fan of any of them. Disappointed

Got our fluffybubs custom on friday, it is so soft! Hoping it fits well! Still waiting on 4 cgrs, 2 miamoos, a fluffybubs, a WW, LE tutto (old one) and maybe a 5th cgr. Whoops

Wocb: gnst and a disana cover

Sent from my iPhone so sorry for the spelling and punctuation!!

[MrsBexie]

And we got our envious nap i scored from her stocking last week.. Mmmm so fluffy! Lol

[WeeMansMummy]

Thanx crystal wings.
The bello markets are in bellingen Bex.
Should have a coffs meet! Where are you clover?

I got maz BP's too but for a pg friend. Do you still need BP's Lou? I haven't worn any since about 3.5 months. I just forgot them one day and then never bothered again! Lol
I might regret it one day when I hear a baby crying in a shopping centre!

I've finally talked hubby into buying me a new sewing machine for my birthday. I just ordered some applique templates from angelea designs, I think I'm going to make some tops and onesies etc to sell at the markets.
I'm loving the sewing but I can't just keep making stuff for Wyatt, it costs too much for fabric and then everyone says make me one!
So, might as well sell stuff
Might even make a wee fb page, if I can figure out how!

[~clover~]

I'm down south, little beach town near Macksville. I'll be in Coffs on Wednesday for DD2's paed appointment

Course I dunno how that'll go yet, weather or not I'll have to race home after. H is sposed to be coming up to be with DS & home for DD1 after school, but I'm not sure just yet. He's not that reliable. If he doesn't turn up I'll have to get straight home...

So I now need to strip my bed. Silly AG I was going to today anyway.

Back when I was away, H was here. I asked him to chuck the nappies in the bottom of the nappy bin in the wash for me coz I didn't get a chance. I ended up being stuck for a week coz of the floods we had & they never went in. Course I forgot til a few days ago, so now I have about 10 nappies ruined Bloody newish good ones too.

Most of the shells are ok, I'll just have to replace the inserts. Mould is a yukky thing Did have 2 come out with no leg elastic, but they were cheap 2nd hand 'back up if desperate ones' anyway.

3 Tutto's, 2 MAL night nappies Some itti's (all those were 2nd hand). Bit pood off at myself!

WOSB - glat & blueberry cover

[Arimeh]

Bex - if your machine has a wool wash option, you can throw your wool covers in the machine to wash. Mine has that option, so I chuck it in the machine instead of hand washing - which is your other option. I'm lazy, so if my machine can do it, bloody awesome. I also don't bother to lanolise most of the time either.. LOL

WOMB: New LB
WOEB: New peechee
WOSB: new peechee

(yes I did the washing!!)

[MrsBexie]

Aaaahhhh!!! I need hyenas for the firefly collective tonight!!! Can anyone help me?? I need bambi and my internet is sooo crap!



Sent from my iPhone so sorry for the spelling and punctuation!!

[~clover~]

If mine didn't constantly drop out, I'd offer, but it screws me over at the worst of times!!
I had a very pretty Widdlewun in my cart the other night, but it was a small!! So I had to leave it there

[Crystalwings]

Bambi is amazing! if i had a boy the Jack and the Beanstalk one is also divine. i need to sew for my business tonight as i've got a big order to fill and been on fb way to much lately. if i am online i'll try to get it for you Bex

Clover - i'm the Bellingen girl? are you in Scotts Head? we probably know some of the same people

WMM - if your still in coffs on the 28th there is a handmade market on at pacific bay called made with love market. lots of goodies

i can see why you all rave about the firefly stocking - so many beautiful nappies
