    Woo.. I've been waiting for a fresh start so I can keep my addiction going lol.
    I'm enjoying our mandy mac fitteds atm, dd is such a big wee machine that fitteds seem to be the best system for us.
    I havn't bought any naps for about 2 weeks.. so proud of myself.

    What do you mainly use 'mar? We pretty much used flats until this week when I got the BBH Bamboos cos of his skinny chicken legs and tiny waist (read nothing fit him so we have plenty of cheapies to grow in to)

    Hahaha I asked mum if she wanted to buy P some more BBH Magic-all Multifits yesterday (I put one on him and she thought it was gorgeous) but she almost fell over when I told her how much for one... It's was funny cos DH had the same reaction. Good thing I'd already bought them before I told him
    Made some cute flannel flats the other day, only prob is snappis don't work and the cover will hide them... Thinking of investing in some good old nappy pins for when we're just around the house and a cover isn't absolutely necessary

    WOHB some fitted nappy (no brand label on it) and a cute cover from BigW with cars/trucks on it...

    with our bbh nights we use either a disana wool soaker or a swaddlebees wool cover, although hubby forgot to put a soaker on overnight the other night and his clothes were still dry in the morning.

    Hi ladies! I might join you if that's ok
    I'm fairly new to using MCN.. I started out with PeaPods but have now advanced to BBH Magicall's and IttiBitti D'Lish which I am loving!! I have just ordered another 10 itties! I am still using sposies overnight at this stage and I'm a bit scared of progressing to nighttime mcn just yet! I do have a few BBH bamboo fitteds that don't fit DS the greatest around his legs (I was going to sell them) but would they be ok to use at night with an appropriate cover?
    Also, does anyone else find the slightest poo smell lingers on the nappies straight out of the machine? Using earths choice liquid at the moment.
    I am looking forward to learning more about mcn and to getting to know you all

    Heys Stoked,

    I'm just rejoining as I'll have a newborn soon!

    I use bicarb for my MCN, or some lux flakes (about half as much as it says) dissolved in hot water with bicarb in the rinse (bicarb will get rid of soap). Poo smell should't be there, do you rinse the nappies before putting them in? Or use a liner?

    With night nappies, I initially used BBH with 2 long boosters instead of 1 long 1 short - it bulked it up and made it fit a lot better. If you're after some good side-snappers, try MazNights maybe?

    Heya Kaz!

    Stoked: What she ^^ said lmao. I used BBHs boosted for night-time with a Maz cover or flongies & they worked fine; were generally soaked in the morning though the cover/clothes/bedding would be dry.

    *sigh* Was expecting all sorts of fluffy mail but alas gave been told that the covers that I thought were posted a week ago weren't & the CTs I got on fb have been accidentally sent to TASMNIA!!

    Have 2 Issys on their way from a sale but I think they are in WA so they'll be ages too... All that & being overdue makes for a bit of a disappointed/bored Mama!!

    They might not be that long QM, I've found that the prepaid post bags only take two days, hence the reason I don't often splurge on express because if they don't post it by 11am it's not next day delivery and would come the day after anyway.

    Peapods are not suitable for newborn - they are just too big. I love my prefolds for newborns.

    I have a CGR coming that Amy made for me special - can't wait to see it - should be in the post today

    WOSB - Angeltears - my fav nappy.
