Kitten LOL no excuses come to mind, was going to suggest saying you hyena'd them for someone else but then you wouldn't be able to use them.

oh maz bought Ruby something again
in my case
Oh that naughty, naughty girl Sammi buying up for our boy again
they will NEVER know :ROFL:
ETA - who makes these trumpet nappies?????
Maz, I have a friend on the Central coast who uses trumpet bums, she said her friend makes them so I am guessing she's a NSW WAHM, can find out more if you want.
Other nappy news, I totally need more fitteds I think, ittis & other pockets are just NOT cutting it anymore. :( Do we all agree that BBH are the best fitteds around then....? I have 6 of those, 2 cute tooshies or whatever it is (the bamboo velour ones, I always get confused with their name...) & an abbey gro & like BBH the best out of those. Recommend away if I am missing something great in the fitteds world.
WOPB: Boosted BBH ready for bed.
hhmmmm just interested who made them hon that was all and was wondering why she is selling them on buy for baby and not in a mall somewere....makes me sad when a good wahm does that.:
Hmmm fitted's you say.....;) I say no more :p
ETA - moi loves your blog
I was bidding on that auriel. Still considering bidding... I wanted it to match Ashtons munch crunch tee
which Widdlewun Maz? She's changed her design now, they are sewn in I think?
DH took Pip's BBH off him early and had another poo-sposion in the sposie *laughs*
WoHB - bubblebums night
Its a night nap Kaz...love it to death! Defently not sewn in
Missm - HMM auriel...I just cant bid on something that someone else I know already has a bid on it....its a bit of an unspoken rule really isnt it
I am covered in dame minkee fluff friggen up my nose...blah
BBH are made in china too :(
Can you please all tell me YOUR favourite fitteds? Preferably WAHM's?
Maz are you only making night nappies or regular fitteds also? Oh and you didn't confirm your next stocking date :pray:
My spotlight finally started stocking the fabrics I wanted. Oh and while I was there tonight I noticed they have "minky" - me thinks this is fake knock off minky? Can anyone confirm?
I hope the next bub we have is a girl, I'm sick of making all these pretty nappies for my niece and Phoenix having limited fabric choices.
ok when I bidded on it some cruzinkris was not kitten
OMG how many bid's has it got on it (12) and it still has 5 days to go...honestly I dont blame you girls going for it.,.....it is gorgeous!!!!
CM - you'll have to watch my ticker babe :) I cant say much in here cause its not the place
Good idea Maz, bring your MIL whacking stick with you when you come up:hooray:
I have spent the last couple of evenings sorting my boys room, washing his stuff and generally organising things.
Tonight I packed his hospy bag. The hospy says for me to take sposies, which I have but I have also packed my 3 (miserable, I know) newborn nappies 2 FJ's with a maz NB dot minky cover plus another brand PUL cover and a NB magicall. I am determined that my baby will not set foot in his new home for the first time in a sposie :)
But I have lots of BBH and BBB so am reconing I dont need to buy any more NB nappies do I?
Shell - I am taking MCN and a nappy bucket with me. If we have no complications (like menconium) then we will be home after a few hours, but if we do have issues we will only be in one night. If I need more nappies I can just get DH to bring more in.
I cant open B4B. Must have gone down for a while. No surprises with this Auriel attracting so much attention!!
Well I better go take some nappies out of the dryer and put some more in. I put the outer of my IF sparkles nappy on the clothes airer though, not risking the dryer with that one!!
Ali, I was just on B4B....
Gawd, you should see how much stuff I have packed for both of us :redface:
So am reconing I may be pushing the friendship with Logan hospy if I drag my inexperienced arse in with a mother lode of cloth too...
Hope we dont have to stay too long, wanna get him home with all his new loot ;)
phew the auriel is still mine... for now! such rave reviews i must have one, i never seem to get one when they are up.... i hope i didnt bid on top of anyone else's bid here? if i did and it doesnt go for anymore you are welcome to it :)
laura, my husband says you are awesome. (my gosh someone who lnows what linux is AND who knows what ruxcon is?! too cool) .... if your DH presents there make sure you come down to sydney - we will spend the day flashing our bubs nappies. to cool, way too cool!!!
wohb - purple sparkly sandman / maz cover
eta - oh crap, i just checked the bid history - missy mell is that you on b4b, mm84? i honestly didnt realise. I wont bid any more - all yours babe, i feel so bad :(
I need some advice please ladies - last night I had to give little laa some panadol, I am sure she is teething, dribbling, biting her little fist etc, and she was crying, in pain. Now how is that going to affect my MCN? Nurofen is only from 6 months isnt it? And liners dont really help do they, cos its the wee that stains? please help????
also some night nappy reccomendations if you could please. I LOVE the sandman, its a medium size and it fits just wonderfully. But they are lined with fleece, and i really want to avoid synthetic fibres for overnight - cna you please hit me with some recommendations that are all natural?
wohb - still the sandman, off to change it now.....
Kitt3n...hun you get get NUROFEN infant drops (from 3 months of age) :D
We have not soo lovely dymadon stains on our IB's :( just wish these darn teeth would hurry the fcuk up!!!
WOJB ~ Animal allsorts sandman / blue minky maz cover
Kitt3n we've had panadol stains but they do eventually sun out (well in my case they did, not sure about others). You will love the Auriel if you get it and as you can see a highly sought nappy and one that you should get your money back on when it comes to sale time. One of the few ;)
I highly recommend getting a blame buddy so you can tell DH that it's a gift :rofl: Maz has got me out of a few potential moments with DH. Though he's just as bad now when it comes to car parts off ebay. he has all sorts of junk arriving ATM for his current pet :rolleyes:
LOL raven..i think i 'need' a blame buddy :p
Kitt3n..just blame me :D
if BBH werent made in china , i think poor davina would have had to sell up !! she has 3 lovely kids and a hubby they both work full time can you imagine making the best selling fitted here in oz and keeping up with demand ! so if she had to sell up , can you imagine life with out BBH .. i couldnt :lol::
they are made Ethically in china .. and even though they are made in china , has anyone seen seconds or poor quality come from BBH ... not in a sweat shop , but BBH is helping poorer chinese familes create an income ... so going over to china to flog a bunch of ppl to make cheap nappies is totally not BBH's style !
argh ok off my snobby horse now ... i just feel bad for all the people whos business goes huge then get dissed for being made in china ... the nappies would cost a fortune if made in OZ
sorry now i feel bad ,Cheeky Monkey .. im a bit sensitve today :redface:
I love my BBH Lea, wherever they are made!!!
No other fitted recommendations then, 'cept for a mysterious comment by Maz?! ;) I forgot I'd mentioned you in my blog Maz - no wonder you liked it....! :lol:
Sammi - 'blame buddy' love it.
ETA: Nothing, nothing at all.... continue about your business... :redface:
you can also email the seller , like SHP if you want a sandman with out fleece .. they can make it just bamboo then you can add a silk liner ? there arent many NN out there with out fleece , but all you have to do is ask , im sure alot of WHAMS would only be too happy to do a custom for you ... Esp SHP , she is sooo lovely and makes great soaker/longies !!!:
lea ~ just because they are made in China...does NOT mean i won't use them!!!! they are my most fave fitteds :D same goes for BONDS.... i love my BONDS undies..i won't stop buying/using them because they are going overseas... once i find something i love..i don't really care where it comes from
(NO flaming of me here please girls!!!) :)
