My Itti's were dispatched yesterday so am hoping to receive them tomorrow (fingers crossed!)!

Also still waiting on my Nappy Bin etc...hopefully I'll get it all soon but I'm at my mums atm so having them delivered here....I'm not using cloth while I'm here as I didn't have the heart to ask my mum to wash poopy nappies every night in her washing machine even though mine is practically brand new!!!

I hate using Pampers now...so can't wait to get home and put cloth on Deri's bum again!

Im STILL waiting for my black blueberry and Itti. FFS! BEEN TWO WEEKS!

She did a big poo in her nightime bum genius tonight so I had to put a blueberry on her. I put the newborn BG insert in it. Im sure it will be fine.

I did it part time for about a month until I built up my stash. I still dont have enough really. I have to wash them too often.

thank you so much honey! it's soooooooooo good to hear what others do xxx

no probs hun! It's best way to get hints and tips from others. Not sure i would have fathomed nappies as quickly as i did without the help of the lovely bnb girlies.


Ohh Sparks, haven't you heard anything from them yet? I hope you get them soon! I would complain you might get a free nappy

 

[saraendepity]

i would definately complain two weeks is way too long to be waiting!! hope you get a free nappy !!

I can't do mine 24/7 either unfortunately. She's such a heavy wetter at night that we're using all the boosters for the daytime diapers in the nighttime ones.

So until I can find some good over-night diapers, disposables it is.

Can anyone recommend some overnight cloth diapers to me?

 

[amelia222]

I usually use bum genius or happy heinys overnight with the regular and newborn insert in. You can always get extra inserts if you need too. I've tried a fitted with a hemp doubler at night and that works well too.

Does anyone else's LO wet less at night than in the day? Alice can have a diaper dripping wet in just over an hour during the day but it's not nearly as wet in the morning after she's slept 10 hours. It's like she doesn't pee in her sleep???

amelia - i find maddi is the opposite - she's so wet in the morning, but it's probably because she sleeps so long at night - 12-14 hours.

it's excellent reading what others do thanks guys

my itti bitti and another blueberry arrived yesterday and maddi's first nappy of the day is a blueberry sam - def complain! thats really bad your waiting for so long!
lauriech - i no what you mean about putting them in disposables - we're out today - so maddi will be in huggies - but i get excited about getting her back in her cloth i'm a total convert

For overnights BG pockets double stuffed worked great for us. Hayden nursed on and off all night until 15mo and those still held up with him. After he started sleeping through I could really use almost anything though...one size FB cause the insert is bigger, the medium fb cause those are too big on him lol, even prefolds folded right work

 

[lauriech]

Enjoying all the tips here girls! Can't wait to move over 'full time'!

Sam - I can't believe you still haven't received your order from Nappy Paradise...have you had any contact with them as last time I went on their site I couldn't find a telephone number to contact them?

[sparkswillfly]

I contacted them and they said that one of the nappies were on preorder. Should have told me that when I ordered. It wasnt very clear. Also they could have sent the other one.

I just got an email to say its been dispatched so fingers crossed I will get it tomorrow

 

[lauriech]

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you hun.

I really hope my Itti's turn up today!

[thelilbump]

fingers crossd your nappies turn up sparks and laurie

 

[lauriech]

Yay - my Itti's turned up! I can't wash them to put them on Deri though as I'm staying at my parents this week and don't want to take the p**s!

Although I'm itching to use them!

[thelilbump]

glad they turned up laurie.

DD christened her new itti today thought the nappy held quite well though

 

[saraendepity]

daisy christened her itti too had no leaks but i'm still not too sure on the fit... we have a little gap around her lil leggies - i'm a little paranoid on leaks !!!!! has anyone got any tips with small ittis?

 

[lauriech]

Deri hasn't christened an Itti yet but am dreading it as they're so slim fitting round the bum iykwim but he's at the bottom end of his weight range so they're a little 'loose' and keep thinking if he poops it'll all come out the side

Ok so this has nothing to do with cloth bums but I know many of you are online shopping addicts like me and I just had to show this site I found.....between this and cloth diapers I am going to be bankrupt but Alice will look so cute!

Some very cute stuff!!!! If you ask Casen what he will be when he grows up it's a rockstar lol...which is crazy because he is my most shy one, but he is soooo into music. We did a bday party for both him and Landon and it was a big rockstar theme. They would both love some of these

 

[princess_bump]

laurie - i'm not surprised your itching to use them - thats how i am! he he!

so pleased they turned up sparks

glad the itti's held up well sara and thelilbump - maddi's held up well yesterday too

 

[thelilbump]

I love our itti bitti, i'm patiently waiting for it to dry again , i'm gonna have to buy some more inserts It's just soo cute!
