cheers steph :)

ive seen coolas sell for around £5 on cnt. id keep a couple tho for when his shape changes. Wink
have you tried doing up the side that wicks tigher? you can crossover the tabs on the new ones, or if they are the older style like mine i leave one popper undone on the slimmer side and do the second popper up on the tightest setting.. if that made any sense Confused

steph1512 · 23/08/2010 11:30

Will have a go at that but think it might not help as he wets so heavily too!

Do you have to pay fees or anything on cnt not sure how it works on there

mumface · 23/08/2010 12:17

No steph you don't have to pay any fees for CNT. Just stick up your advert and if anyone replies you will get an e-mail notification.

Ooh, mumface, another quick selling q - what do you do about packaging? I have just offered a couple of fellow clothies some soakers ffp and wrapped them in a carrier and then parcelled up with brown paper/tape. What do you do though if someone has paid for something? Would the same kind of thing be OK or do they expect proper packaging C&C stylee Grin? Sorry for such a dim question but I don't want any come back when I sell this stuff and I need to get rid of it as the sheer amount is quite embarrassing, plus I could do with the cash Grin. Have just paid my cat subs and was going to try and do it later on today or tonight. Thanks!

mumface · 23/08/2010 12:49

I keep the packaging from stuff I have received and re-use it. I turn the bags inside out so there's no marks. I have used thick carrier bags for larger stuff like when I sold about 14 Itti's to one person. I don't think people expect fancy packaging. I have never bought anything except sellotape lol.

Brilliant - thanks again Smile.

steph1512 · 23/08/2010 13:34

planning on ordering more ittis if i shift my coolas do you think i could get away with large yet ds is 5mth now hasnt been weighed for quite a while so not sure what he is dont mind if they look a bit bulky as long as the are snug around the legs etc??

mumface · 23/08/2010 14:00

I would wait for the tuttos then you can be sure of a snug fit whatever his size. Even if larges fit now he may slim down especially his thighs. Although if you could get a good fit with larges they would work out a lot cheaper.

OP posts:
mumface · 23/08/2010 14:01

He may slim down when he starts walking I meant to say.

steph1512 · 23/08/2010 15:36

Mmmm not what you mean re tuttos but i desperately need some nappies as havnet quite got enough for full time use atm plus think the tutto are out of my budget range Sad

I kind of think the sized ones are slightly cuter to!

i dont mind getting mediums then large if the hold their value but worried they wont now the tutto has been released.

Wish there were some nearby shops where i could try for size hehe

Def fancy a tiger one though no fancy print for the tutto...yet

mumface · 23/08/2010 15:57

Go for the large. I also think they look cuter without all those poppers that you're not really gonna use most of.

OP posts:
steph1512 · 23/08/2010 19:37

forgot to say he is either snapped in the tightest setting (not crossed over though) or there is one snap each side free.

So has a fair amount of popper left but think he may be long so could outgrow the length before waist!?
Confused

I asked before im sure but cant remember is there much leg difference in the large if in the smallest setting?

mumface · 23/08/2010 20:04

When Connor wore mediums with the tabs meeting, not crossed he also fitted largest with the tabs tightest crossed over. There's not much between the sizes really. He got builders bum in the mediums way before he was too big on the waist.

OP posts:
mumface · 23/08/2010 20:05

he also fitted larges* not largest

OP posts:
steph1512 · 23/08/2010 20:27

thanks mumface you should be a nappy guru WinkSmile

One more for you..what about leg gape much diff in the large?when did conner fit large was he quite a bit older than my ds

mumface · 23/08/2010 20:51

I sold all my mediums as I was happy with the fit of larges when he was 8 months old around 19-20lb at a guess. Between 3-8 months used both sizes but had a few poo leaks with larges due to slight leg gape.
