Is it just me that is a part time cloth user?

I don't mean to be, and I have enough nappies to last 2 kids 2 days but sometimes I just can't be arsed, I run out of nice fluffles and can't be fannied putting AIO's together, or I can't find a clean wrap, or I haven't put them back in the nappy box and they are all over teh dryer so I can't be bothered to go and get them.

I must stop it, I used to go through a pack of dispies every 3 months for emergencies and holidays but now I am using one a fortnight, and the wipes? they are so expensive!

Help me!

snappy - towel duly chucked in!

I have a mountain of small motherease wraps - rikkis ans air rikas if interested!

its the air thingys we have. they (ds3 and ds2 at night) hate them too. ds3 mostly in pockets to be fair.

I am a part-timer too - always use disposables at night and if I'm having a bad day then I do too. I think I'm saving money each time I use cloth and also doing a little to help the environment. And that's enough. Isn't it?

Interested in this thread?

No - not little ones

I should start a thread in wanted (selling board is too scarey for me to search!)

I will start one tomorrow

DD is coming up to 18 months, but little, so need to find out sizes...

I use disposies if we are out and when I go and visit my family in England. I have just started to use the 70% degradeable Boots ones now as well.

fletch, I am going to get rid of all my nappies that aren't fluffles or motherease wraps as I don't use them, will have a look for a thread but otherwise can mail you?

Another p/t cloth user here.

Dd gets nappy rash of a particularly horrible kind (at its worst it looks like mouth ulcers...) - when it flares up I'm afraid a day in despicables is the only way to calm it down!

Ds OTOH only ever got a rash when in disposables.

I am also a part time cloth user! I am just lazy some days, but tell myself at least I am trying.....

moljam · 30/01/2008 21:00

i am part time now.was fully into cloth but ds often has diarhoa and although i managed about 1 and half years of it,now we mix.dh now prefers disps but if ds is having no runny bum days then its cloth.

we just bung all our nappies in a basket-ds likes 'sorting' then so were often bunging them back in basket
