Hey girls!! Well...I've had a few nappy disasters today (no leaks though!).

Olivia is teething and I don't know if it is the actual teething or the things we have been giving her for it (powders/bonjela etc) but we have had 3 poos today...each time just after a bum change so....I ran out of cloth and so am currently using eco sposies

This should never happen again because I am awaiting 2 BBs, 3 naughty babies and ellies zebra nappy arrived today

So, because I'm having a bad day, I absent mindedly stick the nappies in the wash with a full dose of detergent ....so it looks like I'm stripping my nappies tonight!

Can't wait to see pics of everyones new fluff....Olivia will be posing (probably with bright red teething cheeks!) for you all when we get her new ones through!!! xxxxx

 

[dippy dee]

i want my zebra nappy and matching bits to arrive

 

[Lunaty]

morning girls,
feeling a lot better today, i think im finally over this cold... (or getting there!)

i made some lovely fudge with white choc chunks and berries.. they were lovely but DH hogged them all as he wants to show them off at work

how many small nappies will i really need.. i mean ve got 14 now.. of which 7 are BTP.. and only 1 NB..

do you girls think i should get some more NB's? or more BTP's or should i wait until Cole arrives?

 

[Babyshambelle]

Hi Sammy! Morning! I don't really know about newborn fluff....we started using it with Olivia about 8 weeks old or so....in those early days I was getting through up to 20 sposies a day so you are a brave lady for starting so soon!! Glad your cold is getting better hun! Wish you could send me some of that fudge through the interweb...sounds gorge! xxx

 

[thelilbump]

evenin ladies.

Sammy - aww that programme sound sso sad I'm afarid i can't comment on newborn cloth either but i can say we did an awful lot of bumchanges in them first weeks!

Another postie came today (i had 3 different ones in one day aren't i lucky ) and bought me my babyhawk mei tai We tried it out earlier my my LO just cried so not sure if i did it wrong or she jus doesn't like it

 

[thelilbump]

P.S has anyone tried ellas house bumhuggers?

We had a load of newborn nappies, but turned out they were for babies 8lb+ and Freya was only 6lb 6oz, so we had to wait for a few weeks. We had 20 NB size and didn't need them all. I should think BTP will fit after a couple of weeks depending on the size of baby! I would wait if I were you, would be awful to buy loads of little ones and end up with a good sized baby andnot need them!

 

[dizzyspells]

OMG so much to catch up on on here,dont think i am even going to try!!!Have had a really hectic week with one thing and another!!
Hope you are all ok and having no issues with your fluff!!
I have been having a major clear out and have ordered some diff types to have a try with that have been recomened for heavy wetters.I am also selling my OS weenotion as I just cannot get a good fit on him.xx

 

[thelilbump]

Hiya Hannah. Hows Finnlay any better? what have you been buyin? I just saw your WN shame it's a bit too boyish or i'd of had it!

Hiya Hannah. Hows Finnlay any better? what have you been buyin? I just saw your WN shame it's a bit too boyish or i'd of had it!

I know Im gutted,I love it but still have my 2 sized ones so not all is lost!
He is loads better thank you and has actually started sleeping better too so last couple of days have been fab!(touch wood) he is doing 7am-11am(dream feed)then 11 till 5am then 5-7am and that is fab for him.I had forgotton what 5hrs solid sleep felt like!!

Hows your LO now?.Have you been buying?x

I have bought some muttakins,babubebes and another that I cant think of!! all american ones,and just waiting for Jacqui to get back to me on her GMs.Have got them pre-loved as I am just trying them for now.Really want to stick with cloth but just so hard trying to find somthing that is right for him.x

 

[thelilbump]

aww glad to hear he's sleeping better you must be relived!! The thing with nappies i find is that what wors for you now might not work for you once he gets active crawling etc bit of a nightmare but it means new nappies

My LO's okay thanks, i've just gone back to work so we're trying to settle into a routine but it's early days yet. Her teeth are still annoying her but they have their moments tbh.

I've spent way too much moeny jus recently, fluff wise i've bought a bb and another bg this week and a babyhawk mei tai off serina. Plus it's her birthday monday so we've been present shopping this past month or so and i'm doing the party shop at the min. It's amazin how much you can spend on a buffet alone oh well

I could send you the recipe, they are gorgeous! Def worth making though youd need a bit of time , I was planning on starting to use cloth about 2-3 weeks in really.. or at least ease in by using it during the day..

I dont want to stay with sposies to long as it may be to convenient for me

It was really sad, they had the whole casket thing done and the mum just couldn't hack it so she ran off for a while.. you can watch the episode online.. but it's probably not a good idea..

However the series is very very good!!!! It's about one of the rougher ype family situations here in NZ!
