toooooooooo many and i really need to sell some but cannot really bare to! There is also some i really want/ need (for research purposes of course!!

Indith · 04/02/2008 20:19

32 I think

Terries in various guises and 4 minki huggles. Tis a good amount as you can go away for 2 nights and not have to worry about getting nappies on and dried the instant you come home

Indith · 04/02/2008 20:21

that is of course not counting the array of fluffles since they are size one and ds is not. That does exclude them from the count right?

i can't wash many at one time cos they don't fit in the bucket so i have always got some clean bigger bucket

Oh I so need a bigger bucket, or a second one, I just haven't got round to getting one yet so ~I end up with a nappy pile around the bucket

How much does your boy weigh babyjj?

I have 20 Ellas House Day Nappies plus err...quite a few others . I mainly use the EHDN but they are so thin fitting they will all fit in my nappy bucket at once so there's me peering into the bucket thinking 'hmm...must do a wash soon as the bucket is full' only to realise all my nappies are dirty.

Not exactly going to win 'organised mummy of the century' title but it is a good excuse to have a large selection of 'emergency nappies'

I don't use a bucket - I use a "kitchen" type bin which was about a £5 from Wilkinsons. Easily holds 2-3 days worth of nappies and washable wipes - around 15 at least. It has a flip top lid and is fab - just flip the nappies in and no bad smells.

I own quite a lot of nappies - some were from a friend, most brand new. I have around 16 Motherease one size with the boosters, around 6 tots bots size 2. Also have a few smaller ones, a couple of kooshies (sp?), a tiny size 1 tots, and various others.

Is this a branch of nappy owners anonymous on this thread
Great thread btw.

babyjjbaby I have one size 2 fluffles (white) - poppers. Only used it a few times but prefer the cotton ones I had already. If you are interested feel free to CAT me or give me your e-mail. Don't want much for it. No prob if not... (sorry it's not orange!)

6 tots size one
2 fluffles size one
about 6 flat terries
14 tots size 2

14 of each size works well for us. I could possibly do with a few more size ones, but given dd will still be in size 2s when db is born I'm thinking I'll be washing a bit more frequently so could cope with fewer!

onepieceoflollipop · 04/02/2008 21:36

No prob babyjj

56 pocket nappies

See I thought I didn't have many...and reading some of your admissions I was right. My rl friends mostly think I am a bit odd. Recently met a new friend who is also a real nappy fan and who told me about some fab swim nappies with tankini tops...bet that got you all drooling those of you with dds...

twospecialgirls · 04/02/2008 21:40

i have my faves though some just dont seem to get used i just kept seeeing nicer patterns or furry ones and i cant seem to say no !

pinkspottywellies · 04/02/2008 21:41

God I feel boring. 24 terries with 4 kushies wraps and 3 pocket nappies for nighttime. And just one normal nappy bucket.

twospecialgirls · 04/02/2008 21:42

i only have one bucket with a lid but it was from wilkinsons
