    Remind me why

    I am using cloth nappies.

    I got to the stage today that I was trying to work out where I could find another $40 each week for nappies for the 2 kids, .

    Every change except 1 on each kid today was a p00. (typical when DH is on a 12 hr shift)

    And I have just scored myself some NN to try and maybe eliminate sposies altogether..

    Why am I doing this??

    To save money (in the long run), to save the environment, coz they are just so darn cute!
    Coz they are better for bub's bottom...

    Honestly, my changing moment was when I found out that sposies contained the same thing that tampons do that can cause TSS (toxic shock syndrome). I personally don't use tampons since reading about TSS & wish I'd known about it being in nappies earlier!

    haha..

    Yeah I know the reasons.. It has just become a real shock with the 2 of them.. Thankfully DH does help out with the washing, and will use them as long as they are ready to go (no stuffing, and preferably not ones that need covers )

    Cos its better than paying out $40 a week for sposies

    Can you get some flushable liners, so you just chuck the poop into the toilet on the liner? That's what I'm thinking of doing when #3 comes along.
