BP are sold out!

Rusmum - are you still looking for woolies? I think I need to get rid of some of mine that don't fit Elouise. . What size do you need? Is your DD tall? Elouise is wearing longies today but they are going to have to go as they are far too long and keep tripping her up. I can just roll them up for nights but it seems a bit pointless as we have others that fit for nights and these are really lovely. They are peachy cheeks longies - pink with a light pink (sort of peach colour) stripes. I will see if I can get a picture if you are interested.

JennyPenny22 · 29/07/2009 11:56

Oh mo! I was going to get some BP!

2CB - sorry to ask yet another question about UD fiiteds . BUT how do they compare, in both bulk and absorbancy to bamboo sandys and WNNl?

Interested in this thread?

Jenny - soy UD fitteds are probably about the same absorbency as WNNL - both UDs and WNNLs are more absorbent than bamboo sandys. the bamboo UD fitteds is about the same absorbency as a bamboo sandy (but possibly a little less). With both soy UD fitteds and WNNL I fold so all of the inserts are at the front (having boys), this makes the soy UD fitted trimmer at the front but bulkier at the bum than WNNL. The bamboo sandy is a less bulky fit than either imo.

Does that help?

I have ordered large 3 bamboo fleece muttaquins from the US on their site. They are 3 for 2 with a code buy2get1 at checkout. The coupon is valid between 07/27/2009 and 08/01/2009
It converted at being just under £30 for the 3 including postage.
They also do BTP bamboo fleece fitteds (called 3SR), which are also included on the 3 for 2, 6 for 4 and so on. The link to their site is muttaqinbaby.com/shop/

JennyPenny22 · 29/07/2009 21:43

Thanks 2CB that is really helpful. Its just that as I can't get the UD preloved, I wanted to make sure they are going to be good before ordering new, and then wait a month or so for them to arrive etc.

That sounds like a good deal on the muttaquins! Have you tried them before? Are they any good?

JennyPenny22 · 29/07/2009 21:46

Do you know if the ones from the "sale" section are in on the deal? Thanks for sharing the code. I think I am going to order 3 to try!

twoclimbingboys · 29/07/2009 21:58

The muttaqins and the offer are discussed on this cnt thread here. The sale ones do work in the offer. I ordered 2 of those and a babyshape one (slimmer fit).

twoclimbingboys · 29/07/2009 22:02

sorry - I meant to add that I have never tried a muttaqin!

treedelivery · 29/07/2009 22:29

Oh they are so cute!!!!!

Lovely prints

JennyPenny22 · 29/07/2009 23:36

I bought 3! Lovely

twoclimbingboys · 29/07/2009 23:39

what sizes etc did you go for in the end jenny?

JennyPenny22 · 30/07/2009 07:41

I bought 3 onesize ones, all from the sale. Thought I might as well get the onesize so hopefully they will last longer. Patterns:

Cotton Candy Floral, Ballerinas, Baby Nay Royal Rose. Came to £28 after postage! Can't be bad!

JennyPenny22 · 30/07/2009 07:45

Tree - somebody on CNT has offered to swap my LCH for a WN wrap but wanted to check you didn't want it first?

Hi Octo! Welcome back.

rusmum · 30/07/2009 09:45

i still need need woolies!!!!!!!

mumface · 30/07/2009 09:54

Had something strange happen to my peppermint Itti bitti, the pul layer inside has gone crinkly like one of those baby toys,its pulling tight accross the front of the nappy & exposing the booster a bit.
I wash at 60 & never tumble dry outters.
Bit annoyed as was planning on getting some more but not if this is going to happen.
The only thing i can think of this could be i put a bit of vanish on a nappy stain i washed it with last week. Would that damage it so much?
Anybody got any ideas?

treedelivery · 30/07/2009 10:14

Oh thats spooky! The exact same thing happened to mine! I sent it back to GreenBaby and am waiting to hear.

Get in touch with whereever you bought it. GreenBbay are talking to the Itti people as they haven't had it happen before.

Spooky! Sma ecolour too!

NickyPickyLicky · 30/07/2009 10:49

Rusmum - I am not sure if you saw but I have replied to you a few times on this thread asking what woolies you are after. I am planning on getting rid of some of Elouises and I am wondering if any would be suitable for you?
