Lovely bags!

I would be really grateful of the onelife wrap if thats ok? Thats really kind of you. I remember now that we used them with DD1 when she was tiny, not sure what happened to them (we hadn't planned on DD2! and also stopped using cloth for a while). I think I gave them away with some of the old nappies . I did really like them when we had them though and I don't think we ever had a leak. Had forgotten all about them! Do you have CAT?

Speaking of baby weights, I should really get Talia weighed - well, probably both of them really. Elouise was last weighed before xmas and was 19lb (at a year) and I was meant to take her back every month as she has had slow weight gain. Talia was last weighed at 2 weeks and was 8lb. I just can't face going to baby clinic with both of them - Elouise would run out the door at the first chance she gets (it is just one big open room that is always packed) and while I am undressing DD2 I don't really know what I am meant to do with ELouise.

If I don't get fluffy post today I am going to be upset! Lol. I am waiting for quite a lot so something should arrive! On the way I have:
4 bumhuggers
Some UD cloth san pro
UDOS
UD soy inserts
Hemp BBH and other Hemp onesize nappy
WNNN in medium from CNT
Large WNNN from Natty
Some hemp stuffies that I am going to try at night with Elouise with lots of boosting!
Bamboozles
2 x Jumblebums Jiants, again to use as night nappies for Elouise possibly.

So some of it better come today! Lol. Hopfully the cloth san pro as I need to use it!

Yes - should have CAT - know I am due to renew soon - do they email to remind us??

If not email me on [email protected]

Your nappy stash sounds very exciting!

4andnotout · 11/06/2009 13:58

Oh got a purple itti which still had the cardboard sleeve on it, an udos which im unsure of (they seem realyy big so may sell them all on!) and a hemp bbh which is lush.

4 - they are very cute girls!

jenny - baby clinic with a newbie and tot is a nightmare. I used to take buggy and leave Toby strapped in but he used to shout at me the whole time! The bamboo sandys are a similar absorbency to the soy UD fitteds, but much, much slower drying.

Octothechildherder · 11/06/2009 14:52

I have built the website myself - so a bit WAHM-ish! But am pleased with it!

cyteen · 11/06/2009 16:24

Hello all, just popping in to ask if anyone has succumbed to the lure of print Ittis yet? I've just sold my two mediums as boy is too large and am happy to continue with just two-parters...but then I clicked on Nappyzone's email link and felt a little flutter at the thought of tiger stripe fuzz...

cyteen · 11/06/2009 16:25

two plain mediums, that should read.

4andnotout · 11/06/2009 16:31

Ohh i didn't realise they are in stock yet!
Im selling my pushchair bits so that should raise a bit of cash towards them
Might sell my UDOS's too.

rusmum · 11/06/2009 19:31

hi whats everyone buying/onto now??

JennyPenny22 · 11/06/2009 19:33

Tree - can I ask you a completly off topic favour? I am thinking about training to be a midwife and wondering if you could answer a few questions for me? Please say if you are too busy or anything its just that I thought it would be good to speak to somebody in that profession before anything else! I have MSN messanger if you have it? Or facebook chat?

4 - I got your bumhuggers today, Thank you! Going to try them tonight. Can't decide if I should put a booster in or not. Hopefully they won't need it but I just hate changing clothes and bedding in the middle of the night!

I also got my bamboozles, giants and stuffies today and Elouise has gone to bed in a well boosted stuffie under wool. Fingers crossed it works!

When I get my arse in gear and sell my wraps I am going to order some UD day nappies. Just a shame there is no such thing as a onesize soy fitted!

JennyPenny22 · 11/06/2009 22:15

Right, am doing my list of wraps (and a few other bits) now on the for sale board.

Octothechildherder · 12/06/2009 00:19

The itti prints do look very cute!

Jenny - no email from you - no rush tho - they aren;t going anywhere!

I am feeling very proud of myself as have just become an ebay powerseller - in need of virtual back pat and rosette woud be good - not sure I get anything apart from a nice logo!

GothAnneGeddes · 12/06/2009 04:06

Octo - Congrats on the powerseller!

I'm more of a power buyer

Hopefully my fluffy post will come tomorrow. I can't wait. I'm using Nature's Babies (disps) at the moment and they are horrid.

4andnotout · 12/06/2009 07:46

Octo- i had you as a favorite seller before i realised it was you!

4andnotout · 12/06/2009 07:48

GothAnneGeddes-ooh what fluffy post are you waiting for?

I'm waiting for a hemp bbh which i had forgotten i'd bought So i think i now have 3 bbh hemp and 5 bbh bamboo so i think i can do away with the bumhuggers now

I need to sell all my blueberry wraps and airflows, i could then get 2 of the tiger print itti's

JennyPenny22 · 12/06/2009 08:47

Used the Bumhugger on Talia last night and it lasted a grand total of...............................................4 Hours . So maybe i should of added boosting. At lrast I know it isnt my washing as these came straight from 4. I am tempted to just use disposables at night for Talia - they seem to last fine as long as she doesnt poo.

Octo - have emailed you now.

Well done on powerseller!

GothAnne - what nappies are you waiting for?

I hope I get mine today!

I am thinking about selling on all my longies that are too big for Elouise. They swamp her little legs so although they do the job, they are so long and i think the bottoms will just end up getting ruined.

GothAnneGeddes · 12/06/2009 09:00

Some Organic Sandy's (massive thank you to whoever pointed out that Tree Hugger Mums were having a sale), Rikki wraps and some hemp boosters.

These were my favourite nappy and wrap during my nappy library trial.

Octothechildherder · 12/06/2009 09:59

Sandys are one of my favourite nappies - esp the extra small which are super cute. Good choice GothAnneGeddes.

JennyPenny22 · 12/06/2009 11:42

I am selling sandys if you need any more :-) LOL.

lollipopmother · 12/06/2009 13:15

4andnotout - are any of your UDOS aplix fastening, if so I may be interested as I'm looking to get some aplix nappies whilst DD is refusing to stay still for nappy changes

4andnotout · 12/06/2009 14:24

lolipop-No they are all poppers sorry

Had 2 ittis come today a cream and turquoise which are lovely

Got to sort out some nappies now as we are going for a piss up barbeque at my parents house.

GothAnneGeddes · 12/06/2009 17:08

JennyPenny - What size? Dd is in a large.

Still waiting for fluffy post. Will have to buy some more disposables today as I only have 5 left.

JennyPenny22 · 12/06/2009 21:15

No good, mine are all XS and S. I did have a L but I sold it. Oh well!

Anybody know how I should boost the bumhugger for tonight with Talia? It only lasted 4 hours last night and although I would have got a bit longer with a better wrap (it was a bit small which I think is why it leaked) it was still drenched so I don't think it would have gone the whole night even with a better wrap. OH I don't know what to do! DD2 has been is disposables a lot today as I am just fed up with leaks! BUT her disposable leaked poo (the washables never leak poo, just wee) so I am stuffed whatever I do!!! Getting so frustrated with it all now. DH changed Elouise in the night too as she had leaked everywhere in her very stuffed stuffie. I think that was more to do with me not doing the nipper up properly though as the stuffing wasn't all soaked and DH said the nappy was coming off. SO have given the stuffie another go tonight.

twoclimbingboys · 12/06/2009 22:35

I have sold the bumhuggers we had - I didn't rate them to be honest. Much prefer WNNN or UDNN.

You could try 2 nappies on at once. I know some people on cnt do. An XL over a large for Eloise? Blake has suddenly started to wee like a racehorse, his night nappies are still absorbent enough at the moment, but if not I will be putting a bamboo toddlease over.
