[Beach Mama]

Hehe Hollye!!!
I got my Bubblebubs foamy wash today - James' bot will smell DELICIOUS! Can't wait for him to wake up - I have enough cloth for him for the whole day today!

[Lady-bug]

Tan-where did you get the bum wash?? Let me know if it is any good! I've just been using water and sorbelene (sp?). How are you going with the cloth nappies?? Loving it?

[Beach Mama]

I LURVE them! I have just stuffed the ones that I got yesterday and are now dry! Ready for use when he gets up - today will be the first day I get to use them ALL day! Well half a day seeing as he is still in bed! I got the foamy wash from their site! Off to cut up an old towel to use until I get some material for mum to make some cloths for me. I got one that is a Christmas one called Joyeaux Noel and its divine, coconut and cinnamon smells!

[Lady-bug]

I must get some material for cloth wipes, I've just been using fash washers, but I want to make them with one side flanelete and the other side terry towelling.

My son is driving me mad today! He is just over tired because he didn't (shall I say refused!!) to sleep before we went supermarket shopping this morning and now he is being a horror and refusing to sleep! But he is sooo tired!! Hopefully he will sleep well tonight!!

[hj1981]

Tan and Hippie u girls are confusing me with this wipe talk - what are u using and for what?

Hollye - hahaha u just wanted to be 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th to post didnt u!

and what does this mean? i think ive missed something Please remember. Gold/Silver First/Second posts will be removed as per our new rules posted last year.

[Lady-bug]

HJ-Bum wipes!!

[hj1981]

Dont u just use the throw away ones?

[Beach Mama]

Cloth wipes sweet. Im sick of disposable ones so am going to use cloth ones at home. I bought bBubblebubs foamy wash (google!) to clean his bot - it's organic and delish! Mum is going to make some wipes for me 20 x20-cms, one side flannel and the other toweling.

[Lady-bug]

HJ-No even the 'sensitive, no alcohol etc' ones give my little man big red welts on his little bum! So we've been using face washes and water.

[hj1981]

Tan - will google now (well after i have posted)

Hippie - okay fair enough! i thought u girls were just torturing urselves more with more washing! hehehe

[hj1981]

ooooo yummy - i like the sound of DONUTS FOR SANTA and RASBERRY AND VANNILA!
can u use it in the bath instead?

[Beach Mama]

Hehe HJ! They sound so yummy hey - I wanted raspberry and vanilla but they were sold out when I ordered! Boohoo! Yep I would say you could use it in the bath! Ingredients are:

De-mineralised water, potassium soaps of organic olive, coconut, vegetable glycerin, 25% soap content in water, apricot kernel oil & fragrance.
