Just had to announce this!! Just come back from hols and put DD in disposables as I couldn't be bothered washing cottons while away and my god they really are sh*te!!! They stink of chemicals, I had gel stuff oozing out of them, she got nappy rash and ended up doing loads of washing from the explosive poos which ended up all over her clothes. Couldn't wait to get home and put her in her lovely, fluffy, big bummed Tots. Aaar rant over!!

And, as for boozing babies, I've heard they're adding whiskey to formula to make it resemble boozy breastmilk, really helps babies to sleep!

i don't think she actually meant to be smug though.

she did wink at the end!!!!

I'm sick of being polite on mumsnett. Other people are so rude.

Regarding disposables V washables, I'd rather be smug than dirty and disrespectful of the environment any day.

It's high time we had a smug emoticon.

i think that what has happened here is that discodolly has unwittingly tapped into people's insecurities aboutt he choices they have made regarding nappies. thus the defensive posts.

gosh.. i should be a psychologist!

chipmonkey · 24/08/2005 11:41

And discodolly, if you're so dedicated, why didn't you bring your washing machine and cloth nappies on hols with you? Well?

nailpolish · 24/08/2005 11:42

nappies smell - oh i wonder why

have gel stuff coming out of them - well in that case nappy has been left on too long (its the gel stuff that keeps the wetness of babies bum and clear of nappy rash)

explosive poos - nothing to do with the nappy

all over the clothes - nappy wrong size or not fitted properly

just some tips for next time you use a disposable discodolly

Lizzylou · 24/08/2005 11:42

Nah! It was just posted straight away after all the Aptimil arguments....thats all!

dyzzidi · 24/08/2005 11:42

I'm sat here and all i can think of is a baby boozing in a terry nappy and being so drunk it couldn't care less

I must stop this idiotic thinking and get some work done today.

oliveoil · 24/08/2005 11:42

oh gosh you are so right, I am so insecure.

What a constructive thread title

I'm dirty and disrespectful and my child wears nappies that are the devils work

Whatever

tarantula · 24/08/2005 11:45

lol Why do I always get busy when things get fun on here. PMSL dyzzidi I find guinness is beest for getting them off to sleep you see tho it does make for an interesting nappy the day after.

compo · 24/08/2005 11:45

discodolly, is that you?!! Did you get the reaction you wanted?

starlover · 24/08/2005 11:46

one person has a bad experience with a product, and posts about it

a group of people jump on her and have a go for being "confrontational" and branding them "bad parents"

for goodness sake... do none of you think that you are overreacting? just slightly?

MasterYoda · 24/08/2005 11:46

Discodolly is it not.

dyzzidi · 24/08/2005 11:46

tarantula please learn to type

I now have little Beasts (beest) in terry nappies drunk as lords in my head

Oh I am such a silly mood today.

tarantula · 24/08/2005 11:47

bad typing is due to the fact that Ive been at dds bottle

starlover · 24/08/2005 11:47

IT'S JUST A FUCKING TURN OF PHRASE!

dyzzidi · 24/08/2005 11:47

nailpolish · 24/08/2005 11:47

tarantula · 24/08/2005 11:48

lol thats a good image to have dyzzidi

starlover · 24/08/2005 11:48

i didn't realise that titles should always be "constructive"

goodness... we should all be banned from ever using unconstructive titles, disliking things that others like, oh yes and HAVING AN OPINION

starlover · 24/08/2005 11:48

where's she gone? you must be joking?

she's probably too scared to come on here again after this lot.

compo · 24/08/2005 11:49

starlover, you could have asteriks that! Some of us have young 'uns peering over our shoulders in the holidays

spidermama · 24/08/2005 11:49

I'd never seen discodolly's name on a post before and I wouldn't be surprised if I never saw it again the way you horrible lot jumped on her because of your own pricking conciences over fouling up the environment.
