Yay ryatha!!!

There are a couple of nappy stores in adelaide. Nature's cradle is at brighton but is opening a new store in goodwood later in may. I bought my flats from target.

I used terry flats when dd was small but found them a bit bulky in the first month. She was tiny though so you may not find that by the sounds of your bubs sizes!!! I had 20 which was ok because it was summer then. DEFINATELY use seperate covers on newborns to "contain" the leg leaks. I also love the baby behinds one size but Ihave hemp. They take longer to dry though. I like bumgenius for pocket nappies as they are one size also. I just have a few for using when out as they more convenient.

I used earth choice liquid when she was new but now use regular powder. I used to only use 1/2 or less of the reccomended amount but I was getting smelly nappies so now I use the normal amount and find it much better. Must depend on the brand. Unless you have an enormous bucket you will probably wash every day or day and a half to start with as it will fill up pretty quickly! I hang under the verandah for a day then finish in the dryer so that they dont get quite so worn out as full time tumbling.

OOO have fun nappy shopping. It is so much fun. Even if you are an el-cheapo like me you can still have fun choosing covers etc.
