To have 1 child in MCN washing every day you would only need 24 nappies, but honestly, I dont wash every day, so my stash is much bigger than that.

Can I challenge that Ali I have 20 nappies and wash every second day, Matilda does sleep 12 hours straight at night though so in the same nappy. I use up to 5-6 nappies a day.

How many nappies does everyone else go through I change 3 hourly and 12 hours for night nappy (and of course an extra change when she poos).

Anyways... back to Marlene, I agree that he will be in nappies for maybe a year or so yet so definatly not to late to start. I would go for OSFA or maybe some large nappies too. I started with trting terry flats, did not suceed (I think due to my covers), I changed to AIO/AI2 and I love them and would never turn back. My staple nappies are Itti Bitti's and Baby Beehinds (mainly for night use).

It really isn't as daunting as it sounds .

I have 50 nappies and wash every second day have my favs obviously. I reccommend itti bittis, baby beehinds and Wild child. I bought most of mine off b4b and only 1 a week at first and slowly built up my stash.

I just found the Cushie Tushie website....and I think I am IN LOVE!!!!!

I knew I wouldn't be happy with terry flats...why oh why did I go googling???

This is gonna cost me a fortune...and I have no patience...I know I will have to have them immediately.

Any opinions on Cushie Tushies? I like them because they are OSFM and AIO's...seems like a win/win..any hidden catches I should know about?
Ya' all better reply quick before I go on a spending spree.

Marlene, BB members can get discount on CT's Most of my stash are CTs. I have no porblems whatsoever with them. I know they don't suit some kids, but they suit mine and we don't get leaks, even when Em has had diahorreah from eating the wrong things. They have a bigger snap in booster and a smaller lay-in booster (coutures) and the basix have a single sewn in longer booster. The coutures last much longer than the basix. I usually put a trifold in and use a soaker so I can use them overnight.

Do it!!!!
I only changed over like 2 weeks ago. I'm using mostly terry flats atm, but I'm slowly working on my MCN stash as I can afford it.
Do it, do it, do it!
(Haven't got any CT yet, so can't answer that one )

I am starting on terry flats tomorrow, LOL, just have to go to Big W and get one those snappy things to hold it all together and a couple of covers. Am going to give my brand of MCN decision till Saturday (when I get paid) and then order some.

"yes darling...these new fancy nappies are very cheap...oh, and I got them on a half price sale"
Reckon I'll get away with it?

Lol, I just never told him the price..... It works out cheaper in the long run!
