You naughty girl :shame: :laughing: Oh I wish i could do that :yes:

[M O P]

I worked it out to $900 and something,
still cheaper than a year of disposables!!

[MumsieMel]

Except my DD will be TT before the end of the year!!! :yes: :eek:

But most i will keep for bubs.

[M O P]

Of course

[stellaj]

Ohhhh you are so lucky! I bet you will be stalking the postie everyday. I would love to be able to spend that much in a short amount of time!

[MumsieMel]

Actually im pretty sure that once i get all the fluffy mail in thats on its way i will be selling most of my BBH as they just dont work for us, and ill keep a few to try on bubs, so sell 4 i think, they are as new! :yes:

[stellaj]

keep me in mind :D

[MummyCharmzy]

lol they're addictive arent they!

I dont think modern cloth does end up cheaper than disposables as you can't help but keep buying new ones all the time!!! Except for the fact you can resell when you finish with it, I'm undecided what I'll do when DD2 starts outgrowing her small ones, to sell or not to sell lol

I'm on a ban aswell.... we just spent $500. BUT I did tell dh that when Greens get their new designs in I may NEED to invest.... :rolleyes: LOL He just rolled his eyes!! LOL

I might be on a ban before I start.
Chris rarely says "Sure" to me spending money (not that i -have- to ask.. but yanno) and he keeps on saying "Buy some greens... you know you want to." and I keep saying "But the website says NEW DESIGNS. AND THE BRIGHT ONES!" and he shakes his head.
I'm beginning to wonder if his generosity in allowing me to spend a few hundred will only extend so far... :p

Can I just say that my child has NOT had a 'sposie on his butt since 8am this morning! :D He's had 2 hemp prefolds, one green (which he pooped in as soon as I put it on him.. *mutter*) 1 terry flat and 1 muslin flat.. and I folded some more muslins to use until bedtime tonight. :smiliedance:
I also managed to slice my finger with a Snappi. :(

[Mum-of-Preston]

[COLOR=royalblue]2 Bubblebubs
2 Bubblebubs (one is lmtd edt!!)

Was just wondering what you think of the Bubblebubs, I may be buying some tonight?

Just a quick question Seekrit, sorry not trying to thread hijack, how's the muslin flats going and where did you end up getting them?

[Seekrit]

i got them from target for $15 for 6 :)

They're thin and the wee spreads a lot on them, so they get wet quickly, I don't know that Cobey really likes them (but he's getting used to cloth all 'round I think) but I've been adding a microfibre cleaning cloth when I fold them to help soak up a bit more :)
I just have to remember to change him more often than I do when he's in 'sposies. :)

(sorry mumsie for the hijack)

Thanks Nikki, yeah I think Hugh took a day or 2 to adjust to cloth, might have been my imagination too. All good now:thumbsup:
