MM - aaahh, good to hear that the magicalls are ok. Our BBH's are the bamboo one's with the hemp liner - I think, I'm a nappy virgin so scuse me LOL.
Geez, it'd be hard to steer clear of synthetic in the nappies.

hehe Sue. You can get bamboo ones or hemp ones, they aren't mixed I love them, we use them at night here with a extra booster on the outside. I have about 25 of them lol

Man Ashton is getting around, today he got into the hallway from my loungeroom (think 7 meters)... little monkey. And for those who are on my FB I uploaded a pic of him standing!! Yes, I was sitting at the tonka table playing with the trains with Ash and he grabbed the table and pulled himself up and stood there for about 5 minutes. I had to grab my camera and snap away, I was so worried he would fall over but he didn't! Geez he is moving too fast!

OMG, Mel!! Ashton is so advanced! Very impressive

Okay, ladies, you've had me looking for days now at websites and forums for cloth nappies. I feel I should be keeping notes! Think I'll have a look in Griffith tomorrow and also see if I can get one of those Safety 1st bedside barriers as Matthew and I are still co-sleeping.

I think I've made a rod for my own back! It's been over 40 degrees here for nearly 2 weeks and to keep as cool as possible while feeding Matthew, I've been feeding him lying down. Now of course he's squirming like a bag of worms when I try to feed him sitting up! Somehow I don't think Qantas will let me lie on the floor of the aisle to feed him so I have very limited time to sort this out! Arghhh.

He also lunges all over the place when I have him in the bath. Any suggestions? I tried getting in the bath with him today, not ideal when it came to getting out and getting us both dry.

Well done too to those of you who have lost weight - awesome! I've GOT to do something about my diet. I'm starting to crave "real" meals.

I don't know about the bath thing. Ashton is the same and come out time he screams the house down. Never had such a full on water baby.

Xavier doesnt scream when he comes out but he loves his bath and I get soaked from him throwing his arms into the water and him kicking his legs. DD refuses to bath with him now as she hates being splashed LOL

Just a short post as off to DD swimming lesson soon but just to say you have me hooked on the cloth nappies too now. I am a novice I bought a trial pack when xavier was born but when I tried them as a newborn they seemed so big in the osfm so I have waited to use them.

I have bought a coushie couture that feels so soft and I have a couple more orders on their way but cant remember the makes. I have a BBH coming I think that was for a night time nappy. I really should have written it down as I have done loads of reading in the cloth nappy forum.

I hope to be rid of sposies in the next week or so once my supply arrives.

I am thinking of putting my 3.5yr old into them for her bed time pants too anything to save money on sposies and the environment too.

Glad everyone in here from VIC is safe. We lived down there for a while and I spent a NY in marysville and it breaks me to think it no longer exists.

Hope you all have a great day and I will do personals next time. Xavier is also on the move but way to go Ash standing I am not ready for Xavier to get to that point yet! Like I will have a say anyway.

His latest trick is to go in the cot feet to the bottom but when he wakes he is head to the bottom turing a full 360 degrees!

Nae, I've just forwarded you on a text from Pam, saying she's okay. We were worried too, also about you. Glad you are both okay!! How close did the fires get to where you are? And I've emailed you. And I've sent a quick text to Pam.

[ezymay]

Hi Nae, so glad to know you are ok. We were worried about both you and Pam. Its so devasting. I made a donation this morning and wish i could give blood, when Emily is 9 months and if i'm not still feeding I'll be straight to the blood bank.

kerry- Can you let us know if Pam gets in touch with you?
