I have my first lot of MCN's coming via fluffy mail!!!
WOOOT!!!
I have ordered some itti bitti AIO's and i also have a bit of a lay by with mel

I just have one question for all you mcn queens.. what are the pros and cons between AIOs abd AI2s???

[Arimeh]

True AIO's take longer to dry. Thats about it. LOL They are easier cos you don't have to put them together, but typically they take longer. I like both, for different reasons. Actually I really like my bumg's AIO's (sized ones) cos they don't seem to take very long to dry at all. However, they are apparently really hard to get hold of these days.

WOOHOO!!!!!
You'll Love Mel!!!!!

I like AIO for quick easy changes and days at home, but I find AI2 hold more wee-wee....

[Muffy]

My fluffle mail arrived today!
just giving them a couple of washes and then i will be using them!!
i have noticed one thing already, the AIO take a while to dry!

[Visitor8]

I prefer AI2 in this weather for drying

[~Saram~]

It's very hard to find a traditional AIO these days, most are snap in AI2.

Have to admit my swaddlebees AIO and BumG are great - no snaps just grab and go and the inserts are secured and ready to go.

HAving said that I wash my AI2 without unsnapping - naughty I know and they are quick to dry

[~Raven~]

Yep AI2's dry quicker than AIO but the with AIO's you don't need to play find the insert Not much of a drama though really.

Welcome to the crazy addictive world of cloth RR!! My pockets dry quicker than the AI2/AI1 but I love them all!!!!
I find the sewn in Itti bitti's not to bad in terms of drying time.

[Muffy]

ok girls what have i dont wrong?
Bella woke up this morning wet up to her neck (literally)
do i need to put something extra in them? or are they just not good for night use?
also she had a massive ouchy rash on her vagina!
i have washed and dried them twice!

[Arimeh]

What was she in babe?

[Muffy]

just the itti bitti AIO

[Arimeh]

Yeah its not a night nappy babe. You'd be better off getting a specific night nappy. You can use ittis, but I would say you would need a really really light wetter.

Plus, she might have come up in a rash cos they are suedecloth inners, thats a lot of time to be next to suedecloth. My night nappies have inners of microfleece (unless I'm using one of my green kids, but my kids don't have any issues with suedecloth).

Do you have moogoo for the rash? That'll clear it up

[Pretty Butterfly]

You need an actual "Night Nappy" sweets, an itti wont last all night, just a few hours.

Good ones can be hard to come by, but the Pop In is an easy one to get, and works great with the night booster added.

I use Sandmans and Fluffy Bubs, and love them both for night time.

There are some threads here I'm sure on night nappies....

eta... Am I allowed to tell you Mel sells Pop In nappies???

[Muffy]

i have got the ecobubs nappies on layby with mel, so i'll see how they go!
oh well i guess its all trial and error
can you buy moogoo from the chemist or supermarket?

[Arimeh]

Go to their website, and see if there is any stockists near you. I have one 20 mins from me, a natural health food store that stocks it. So there might be some near you.

Ok I just checked for you - Direct Chemist Outlet stocks them (you still in warrnambool?)

[Muffy]

yeah, cool i will head out there today!!!
thanks!!

[Muffy]

ok, i really must be doing something wrong....
i fed bella - put the other nappy on, then put her down for a sleep - she just woke up and is wet again!!!
???

[Arimeh]

How many times did you wash it? How long was her nap?

Usually they are good for about an hour here if I haven't washed them to reach their full absorbency.
