Had a cow one too, but sold that earlier today.

Rachel - if they were girly I would!

Jenny-I have the pink,sage circles and cow print both medium blueberry wraps [wink

ohh, how much for the pink circles? Are they bulky?

Elouise has been in her new UD fleece wrap today and we love it - despite not getting on with the tots fleece that talia has

They aren't bulky at all, they are nice soft inside and out, i think i advertised the pink,sage, buttermilk circles for 8 pounds posted, there is my ad on the for sale board with pictures on.

CYTEEN have sent it through.

HI ALL_ am back!!!

Hi Rusmum.

Great, thanks 4 - I'll get that in the post to you on Monday

whats new?????

Not much new here, how are you?

Evening rusmum and 4.

Cyteen - I hope his temp is ok and he is fully recovered now.

Jenny - just out of interest what didn't you like about the tots fleece wraps? The only thing I don't like about them is that they are aplix and I have side snap ones from UD, WN, & stacinator. I am selling the spotted tots ones, but keeping all of my striped tots ones. Tots are a bit more lightweight than all the other fleece wraps I have so I am finding them to be really good in hot weather.

i found fleece was damp all the timme??

twoclimbingboys: I'm guessing the tots fleece wraps you're selling are size 2s? I'm trying to find a size 1, but seems I only see the larger size! Clement gets on very well in his size 0 spotty tots fleece wrap, but I can barely squeeze him into it now! lol I think I prefer wool in general (esp for nights), but like to have a fleece wrap as well - esp as I find wool needs extra washings for little ones since they can easily get soiled with explosive poos!

rachel - they are actually size 3 (if I remember rightly and a size 3 nature babies fleece wrap). Loads of people love wool, but I am just too lazy for hand washing and lanolising!

rusmum - I don't really get 'dampness' even with sodden night nappies under them, although wetness is supposed to evaporate through it so was it just that?

Just made the mistake of looking at the upsy daisy website and weenotions...if dp wasn't being so mean and making me buy practical things out of my paypal account i could go wild in there!!

Hi everyone.

Hello Rusmum

Had lovely warm days with dd in dress and big nappy. Fab.

Me too have been co-ordinating their outfits and nappies (hence nappy envy!)

Have bought some wooly bits!! Veeeery excited, from used nappies.

I didn't know dh was going to be made redundant [again] when I bid for them . What can you do?

Has anyone got any bum huggers in medium?? I have one and with the weather being good they would be great now. Probably not much good to us in winter, they'd take a while to dry on the line! So I'd like another one, despite financial disaster zone here.

Had also ordered a new nappy before the news form work - but I can return that.

The tots fleece wrap - When Talia is wearing it, she is always damp. She can have it on for an hour or less and her clothes are damp! I don't understand why as Elouise is a heavy wetter and the UD fleece wrap seems to work. When I have fully tested the UD wrap, if I am still as please with it I will get another one. Although they have 10% off at the moment! Does anybody know how long it is for?
I wanted to order some soy fitteds but they are out of stock! Was going to dye them too!

Tree and 4 - I have been showing Blake's nappy off too in the hot weather. Yesterday he just wore sandys with a savannah ME wrap, a plain white t-shirt and a huge safari hat!

Jenny - I think UD are expecting soy within the next week or so. I am hoping the 10% off is until the end of WAHM month as I want to order some more fleece wraps once I have the cash.

Tree - what is the wool like that you have ordered?

A woollie question - what kind of wool i.e. 2 or 4 ply etc are wool covers made out of? I have a source of wool but not sure what they need to do to it ready for knitting.

I have loved having pretty girly nappies under dresses! Looks so much nicer than disposables!

I love the look of the natural skin products on UD site. Been thinking about getting the wipes cubes. They look very handy!

I am going to be a tester for a Wrap from softbots and some cloth san pro (Both from the WAHM board on CNT). Yay!

octo - not sure about that. I know it needs to be 100% pure wool, rather than the cheap stuff you get, if that helps? Are you on cloth nappy tree? They have a wool section and somebody in there would know.
