Sorry about argument Gingeme. Hope all is ok now.
Thought I'd post my friend's advice to me as some were interested. I've had a couple of recommendations for Motherease. They're a one size nappy too, Louise.
Here goes.
"I got the nappies from www.earthlets.co.uk. The website?s a bit confusing, but you will need:
*20 Mother-ease one-size nappies. Get the ?Dry? variant with polyester lining. Don?t get fewer than 20; at about 7 nappies a day for a newborn you don?t want to be washing more than once every 2/3 days
8 small (not extra-small)
*Rikki air-flow wraps (these are the water-proof pants that go over the nappies). You don?t need extra small unless your baby is premature ? and even then you?ll probably want to go for disposables until s/he?s big enough for smalls. In time you?ll need different medium then large for these but not for the time being.
*Rolls of Ultra-biodegradable Nappy liners (these are paper towels that go inside the nappy and catch the shite, so not too much of it goes on the nappies themselves. They can go on the compost heap, if you have one; shite very good for compost)
*One big bucket/bin with a tight-fitting lid to put the shitty nappies. Get this from a pound shop as you?ll pay a premium for a specialist nappy bin.
*Tea Tree oil. Two drops in the bin really does neutralise the odour of shite and the little bottle will last a year. Don?t use nappy bin sanitiser, which smells worse than the shite.
*A big pot of Sudocrem healing crime, to smother all over your baby?s bottom like fat over a roasting chicken.
*Loads of cotton wool from the chemist?s.
In time, but not now, you?ll need snap-in liners from the Mother-ease range, which absorb a bit more of the little cherub?s wee."
End of advice. Apparently they don't take too long to dry inside. Not 100% convinced I won't be living in nappy city.
