PAL after Recurrent Losses - come join us!

I can do diapers, I can do wipes, I can do liners, but I just CAN'T do cloth sanitary pads. Tampons only please, I'll save the diapers for the babies.

I'm in complete agreement!!! I do use all natural, cotton tampons, but still, no thanks on the cloth!

No i couldn't do that either. I use a mooncup which is obviously environmentally friendly. Will have to use pads after baby arrives though but i'm sure it'll be the last thing on my mind then!

Thanks for all the info on what is AUS we cal MCN's(modern cloth nappies) I have been interested for a while but am not sure what is the best type. I have started researching. You mentioned second hand are you talking ebay?
Also this may sound really stupid and it may just be the site I'm looking at but there is a pocket in the back for the liner is that normal or is the liner just on top? I just thought how dumb then the nappy would get dirt too rather than just the liner. Or am I hearing it wrong and I am meant to change the nappy with every change and just wash daily or just the liner? I wish I had someone I knew who could show me in real life!!!

Congrats jen on 12wks.
and all of you 18wks!

Just spend an hour catching up and can't remember a thing!

Yes liner saves stains etc on the nappies. The pockets are supposed to be there - that's where you put the absorbent layers to soak in the wee. The pocket nappies bought new come with a microfibre insert but you'll need to buy a bamboo for use when baby is bigger (as well as the microf). Because the nappies are stripped to bits when you wash them it means they wash quicker than all in one nappies.

I personally have never used ebay for nappies. I have used preloved or clothnappytree.com, there's also fb groups for Aus, UK etc. Make sure you have a good look around before you buy any and feel free to ask me as many questions as you like.

Also, try youtubing how to use cloth and stuffing cloth for videos on it x

Yeh. If you go back either last page or one before i did a breakdown of what you'd need:

Pocket Nappy (bought new comes with microfibre)
Bamboo insert for when baby is bigger
Reusable or disaposable liner.

Morning girls! No af beginning to panic just in general, it's not been 5 weeks since my erpc yet but getting those cramps has made me expect it. If af comes today or Monday im ok. But if it comes over the weekend i'm done for and have to wait another month for ivf.
Think we would freeze the embryos pip. Or there is the option of egg sharing for free ivf but not sure i would qualify with my history, then again if they find most are normal im not adverse to helping someone else out...
What's this I have to bring back? Blooming bath? Blooming 'el more like! An extra suitcase! What is it? I don't mind taking some orders if I can get hold of it!

Well I've had my scan and good news baby hb 12 w 2 d. I'm so happy. Going to see the mw now. The consultant says taking folic doesn't do anything now ( beyond 12 w) but be sure to take vitamins with vit d ( and if u take folic acid with vitamins does no harm)
