i ended up getting some large nn abd covers from bbh sale. am looking forward to having more covers as currently onpy have 2 which means i have to wash every 2nd day (i tried not washing cover everytime but i couldnt do it.
wwsb ~ bbh nn with white pul cover
Cool tt40. I put a few things on LAYBY from the BBH sale. 😊 And bought a few minkys..... And a few covers... Also managed to pick up a couple of second hand NN from a Facebook swap & sale group
WOMB- BBH NN med with white PUL cover
Fluffy mail today! :dance:
I got a couple of 2nds tuttos (tho for the life of me I cant work out why they are 2nds), and half a dozen for my sil. I hope she likes them coz she's never really got into mcn but wanted to try them at only $12 each.
I also got some second hand nappies while in city yesterday. Two small aio ittis as new for $20, and a nb kissaluvs, 2 bbh small magicalls, and a small gf nn from a lovely BB lady for $30.
Problem is that there's a really good lot of grovia and bambooty nappies on gumtree also, I have spoken to her and she's holding them for me coz I really want them but may end up reselling the bigger ones because I don't really NEED them and my dh might be slightly appeased if I manage to do that (he said last night 'haven't you got enough nappies?'). I actually don't have THAT many compared to lots of other ppl its just that I've got one in fulltime and 3 for sleeps (looks like only 2 soon hopefully :pray:) so I've just mostly been trying to slowly build up a decent supply for bubby when I can get them at reasonable prices. I never pay over $10 each for second hand and don't think I've ever even paid full rrp for a new nappy! Anyway that's probably enough of my self justification for now lol.
I don't pay full price for nappies either HSM. My stash is dribs and drabs because of it, but I have saved heaps. My stash has already paid for itself, and DD2 is only 12 weeks old!
So that's totally justification to go and buy more pretties, right?
absolutely Audax!!
im going to check out a handful a chick in the city is sellung tomorrow. she only wants $20 for 6 nappies abd 18 boosters. ive never heard the brand tho but they looked good. i saw them on hubbies fb so cant check. was earth? or something... hmmm ill see if i can find out.
Earfts? Never tried them.
yea that wiuld be them. they are osfm...thats all i remember. dh iscasleep and phone pff so i cant go back and look. but i thought it was too good a deal (esp seen i had to wash 2 loads yesterday cause of her poos...would be good to have more in case it happens again)
Yay I finally tracked down the new thread on Tapatalk.
How many nappies do you have in your stash folks? I'm not sure we have enough for full time use.
Has anyone used Tuttos or other itti bitti's for night use? How many boosters did you use?
Ok I was sucked into the bbh sale. I got one large nn, 2 bamboo fitteds and 2 wool covers. Hopefully I can go back to fully clothed bum. My ds kept leaking, so hoping the wool covers really help.
Lol WM so was I. I put a bit on layby. Then went back and bought a bit more!
I've fallen in love with minkys! I got a Magic-All minky off eBay and its just so gorgeous! So now I've ordered a couple of minky covers.... DH thinks I've gone a bit insane with buying nappies! Looking at my stash pretty soon I'll be able to get rid/store the cheapies and just use BBH.
Frangipani_Lou I wouldn't use tutto's for night use. People swear by boo's but I've not used them.
I have 30+ nappies I think for full time use on one baby :)
Frangipani Lou - I've got boo's here but bub is only a month old and they are mediums so he's still a bit little for them. The whole nappy is absorbent do you need a fleece or wool cover over them. Pm me if you want the link for the girl that makes the fleece covers, they are only $10 so much cheaper than paying $40 each for BBH wool covers!
At the moment bub is in small itiis and I have about 20, I have about 25 mediums and more on the way, I do have a bit of an obsession though and have collected some really rare prints. I wash every second day :)
There is also an itti bitti buy and sell page on fb with heaps of cheap itti's. Might be a good place to buy some boos to see if you like them :)
I have used boos for night time. They're great, absorbency wise, but the fit is no good for us. I think I have some kicking around somewhere, must dig them out and sell.
We have 70 for two in cloth, plus about 15 terry flats. It's plenty, we can go a full week without washing. We decided it was cheaper to buy more than to buy and run a dryer.
i just picked 6 osfm earfts (pul pockets) and 18 bamboo boosters for $20. will be our backup in winter or if we go away or she decides to 9 poos in one day again
Woohoo TT hope they are worth it, at that price its hard not to be!
Well dh is picking up the bambooty and grovia nappies after work tonight -YAY! It's 7 brand new bambootys 2 new nb grovias, 8 grovia covers & 18 inserts (excellent hardly used condition) all for $150. Plus my sil is going to 'buy' the larger grovias off me, well that's what I've told dh just didnt mention to him we've planned on me getting them back when her lo outgrows them lol. I think its a pretty good deal considering even used I should be able to get around $10 each for them... In the unlikely event that i sell them haha.
Just on grovia though does anyone on here use them and what do they think of them? I got my local 'nappy lady' to bring some over for me to have a closer look at and they do seem good. I had thought they were pockets which would quite honestly probably have meant I'd sell them on straight away. They seem really small for a osfm though, they definitely wouldnt fit ds2 now who's 19mths and wearing large itti AIOs (only just mind you!)
To the person that asked about itti bittis for night, I have used tuttos overnight and still would if I ran out of other options. I think it depends on the fit on the particular baby tbh. I use the usual 3 boosters and extra mini booster, I think its kinda only just enough but since ds2 is so big now I really can't squeeze anything else in there. If you're after trying boos check out australianbabysupplies they had them on sale just the other day and from memory it was even cheaper than itti website.
