I think I am going to replace some of my Itti's that I've sold on with BBH minkee magic-alls. Have a hot choc and purest blue on the way, C had one on for 5 hours incl a nap this morning with no problems and any other aio/pockets he is leaking thru atm. Am really struggling to get the fitteds on him.

Oh I heart heart heart magic-alls. They are as good as Itti but sometimes Itti leak poo from the leg I find. Magic-alls are bomb proof and you can boost them to within an inch of their life too. I thought was the only one who liked them!

I mssed a sale of large on CNT I got the last 2, but the lady had a full set, that I would have bought.

I have had to refund for a wrap I sold, I called it a weenotions when it is clearly a BB. How daft am I!?

No one has bought my fuzzi's or bbss

Oh now that is what I like to see. Yay fluffy post. Can't wait to hear about it mumface.

If I can shift my last skirty, and resell the wn wrap, then I'm getting the brown butterflies So probably won't be doing as there seems a lot of variables, but a girl and a botty can dream

Just realised I have clothes pegs to match all my Bumgenius colours! (from Lakeland btw!)

Ridiculously exciting!

mumface · 12/06/2010 20:46

Don't buy any new coloured pegs then or you will have to buy all the nappies to match!!

Anybody tried these baby amber teething necklaces and bracelets that a few nappy websites are selling? They do look rather cute.

Did someone say they were selling BlueBerrys?

I'd be interested as the one I have is the best nappy I own. I'll also be looking on CNT etc for Itti outers as thanks to nursery losing the ONLY nappy I've ever bought new (lush purple Itti) I now have 3 lots of inserts and only 1 outer, and by the time it comes back from nursery it smells too much to use again.

Recently got some XL Fuzzibunz and they're not great, need at least 2 of the inserts to deal with a few hours wee, but I think are still too big for chubby 21-mo. Oddly they fit better on skinny 2-yo DN. My Lollipops also aren't the best - polyester doesn't absorb well so I use 2 Motherease boosters which are hard to get in.

Very fond of my Kushies AIOs but they're hard to find (although nursery lost one of those too, grr, at least they've now replaced staff and aren't using agencies any more).

So, anyone selling any AIOs/pockets for 2-yr-old size? Ds is finally sleeping through so would be nice to go back to cloth at night. But my pile of ancient MEs is just getting too threadbare where the nippas go! What other brands are there?

mumface · 13/06/2010 22:12

hi, Notcitrus, we are not allowed to buy/sell on this thread, so cannot discuss, have tried 'contact poster' but your settings won't allow it. So will put an ad on for sale board for you about some nappies.

Have had a reply from WN about their inserts. The large pocket inserts are narrower and a little shorter than the OS pocket ones. But they've not had any feedback as to whether they work well.

Are Wonderoos birth-to-potty nappies any good and likely to fit a chubby near-2-yo?

PS thanks mumface, have emailed you.

LackaDAISYcal · 16/06/2010 21:42

A quick hellooooo from me; nice to see the love of fluff never wanes

Congrats to 4 on your totsbots win Gotta be cherries, no???

Struggling with cloth here. bumble has had similar issues that DD had, with big red weals appearing round the (outside of the) leg elastic. Have stripped them all and done a 60degree wash, but it still happens. He is fine in two or three cloth nappies a day if they are alternated with despicables, but if we try a full day then big red weals and itchiness Tried a day of woolly/fleece pants hoping the breathability would help, but no.

Noticed a couple of new names.....hellooooo. My name is daisy and I'm a nappyholic. I tried sooooo hard to stay on the wagon, but have fallen off again and am being tortured with hallucinations of cosmic easyfits . Have resisted so far, but heaven help me when sites have them in stock rather than just for preorder.

Off to try and catch up' hope all the babaies are doing OK, and Rach; did I say Congratulations lovely? how exciting

mumface · 17/06/2010 10:17

My Issy Bear pony nappy is here
Loving the 2 thick inserts, I can see why you could use it overnight the print is unique I don't think I've ever had one like it. Machine on-quick.

Am very happy as just found the our v. busy main road we live on is to get speed humps and a zebra crossing. It's so bad in the mornings we usually have to wait for a gracious driver to stop and let us get across.
Just had a filling at the dentist, but have a couple of child free hours. (and have just eaten 2!! cream slices)

hey guys sorry george has been teething so hes strapped to me most of the time, and he has it in for the keyboard so not allowed near pc lol!!

daisy we've been getting problems with red welts. ive been using alot of nappy creams and disposable liners which seems to help.
have you tried soaking fleece liners in camomile tea? not tried it myself but my friend swears by it.

tried changing washing powders? i have to wash georges in a sensitive skin powder and i rinse 3 times.

cant think of anything else to help!

oh can anyone help me find a sleeping bag without poppers on the shoulders? every time he pulls himself up in the cot it pings undone i have to go in there to redo it
