babyjjbaby: If you're desperate for some cheap boosters, I can put you together a bundle from spare ones I have!

How about the following 5:

  1. very soft & fluffy but thin booster - think it might be one from Little Lamb, but not sure - used only once or twice, so basically new.

  2. Nurtured Family brand microfibre insert/booster pad - slightly green from some too green nappies of mine! but excellent condition otherwise.

  3. Tots Bots hourglass shaped terry booster, purple on one side/blue on other. Used 2-3 times from brand new.

  4. Another hourglass shaped terry booster, think it's Tots as well, but this one is white & fleece topped. Nearly new condition.

  5. plain white microfibre cloth/dish cloth - I also have another of these with slight yellow staining - can send it as well to make a total of 6 boosters, but wasn't sure if you wanted one a bit stained, so didn't include it as part of the bundle I picked out just a few minutes ago.

Anyway, I've just taken a photo of the 5 boosters for you. Here it is:

You can have the bundle of boosters for £3 if you're interested. Just let me know. Thought if someone is desperate for some extra nappy boosting, might as well let these get some good use, instead of sitting in my cupboard! xx

Hi BigBadMouse Afraid I can't always remember who I have sold/bought from! LOL I do remember having both a size 1 & 2 Fluffle and got rid of them, though I have since got another size 2 one! I like to try nappies a lot and swap about etc.

BigBadMouseInHauntedHouse · 16/10/2008 21:36

rachelinscotland twas a size 1 - you swapped it for a lollipop rainbow pocket nappy. Was ages ago though, I was about 12weeks pg when we swapped - little monster in 4mo now and helping me type this . In fact there is a photo of said fluffle on my profile with boy-monster modelling it.

thebluefoxategreensocks · 16/10/2008 21:38

Thanks, payment received. Now if you can just email me your address, then I can send them out to you! And do you want the slightly stained microfibre cloth included as well, or not?

thebluefoxategreensocks · 16/10/2008 21:43

BigBadMouse: Awww, your little boy is lovely - such a big boy too!! And yes, now I do remember swapping for the lollipop rainbow pocket! It was a lovely nappy too, tho my own big boy got a bit too big for it, so my 2 have been in Minki fleece pockets for night nappies for a while now. Tho my nearly 3yo daughter has finally potty trained herself (tho not totally dry at night always), but basically I've only got 1 in nappies at the moment (19mo boy)...until 3rd baby arrives in April!

babyjjbaby · 16/10/2008 21:57

thanks emailed u

BigBadMouseInHauntedHouse · 16/10/2008 21:58

rachel Ooooh another one? How exciting! 3 is fab btw. My DDs are April babies and DS is a May monster - excellent time of year to have littlies IMO

thebluefoxategreensocks · 16/10/2008 22:07

My daughter was November and my son was March...and with this one being the 1st of April, it's actually likely (in my opinion! lol) that it will be another March baby. Though I could be totally wrong and go weeks late! haha But daughter was born on her due date and my son several days early, so seems I go early rather than late. However, wasn't too sure about my 12wk scan moving my date a full week ahead this time - now I'm not really sure when it will be, as previous scans always agreed with my dates!

BigBadMouseInHauntedHouse · 16/10/2008 22:17

Aha, welcome to the world of the third baby! My DD1 was born on her due date and DD2 was a week early. DS was in a perfect position at 37wks, I had huge BHs at 38 wks so expected him to arrive any day.

From 38wks I had much stop-starting of labour until the little chap decided to turn back to back (like his sisters). Eventually he arrived at 40+10 - a few hours before I was due to be induced. He is forgiven though - and very much worth all the hassle

thebluefoxategreensocks · 16/10/2008 22:42

ooooh, do hope that doesn't happen to me this time! Soooo encouraging! LOL I had to be induced the first time around (because of prolonged ruptured membranes & no labour starting), tho still meant she came on due date! Same thing happened 2nd time around - waters broke & no labour or anything...but I fought and stuck it out (planned homebirth, as I'd wanted the 1st time too!) and eventually my son came in his own good time and had a lovely homebirth. So guess I might really have to fight this time if I go "overdue".
