instead of a little squirt

[nuddle]

could you use a waterspray can, you know the ones you use for the garden, to spray off the poo into the toilet?

[Cheeky Little Monkey]

Hmmmm I doubt it would have enough pressure to blast of the really sticky poo to be honest. Can't hurt to give it a go though. I would still be getting a Little Squirt, they are worth their weight in gold.

Could you attach a garden hose to a toilet?

:detective: Hmm.... I'm no plumber, but you'd still need the T-bar bit to send water into the hose... I guess you mean a garden trigger gun thing on a shortened garden hose? I guess it can be done, but a little squirt is such high pressure, it's amazing :yes:

Don't be put off by the high prices for Little Squirts at some online stores- your local plumbing shop (such as Reece) should either stock them or be able to order them in (just call first) and should cost around $55.

I've seen them online for $85 :eek:

I friend of mine was a full time terry flats mum and she managed with a softdrink bottle with a small hole drilled into the lid.

Not my idea of fun :o but it must have worked because she did it for 2.5 years!

huh, pls explain :confused: :laughing:

Get a 1 or 2 litre soft drink bottle. Drill a hole in the lid. Fill the bottle with water. Screw on the lid. Squeeze the bottle so water shoots out of the drilled hole.

Gosh.. she was keen! Better then a spatula though, I suppose! What an effort :yes: Can't beat a LS though ;) :D

[Shanaynay]

Hmmmmm maybe I need to invest..... I've been using flushable liners lately.... if you use them, do you think there's as much need for a LS?
Just how well does it get the poo off? Could I stop using the flushable liners?

[HoopDeeDoo]

You could stop using the liners so it will save you money in the long run :yes:

So worth the money!!!! I have bough 2 one for my house, and one for my inlaws, I would still buy one if they were $100

We can't have a little squirt here or anything like that (our system is hidden...pita).
If DD manages to do a solid poo it just rolls right off into the toilet with a little shake. Usually they're large and explosive though. I get a big wad of toilet paper, scrape off what I can into the bowl and then take it out into the laundry and rub the nappy together under the tap to get rid of the skid marks.
Not so great, but it does the job and we don't have any other choice (except to rip out half our bathroom...it's not even 8 months old so we're not doing that)

[HoopDeeDoo]

It doesn't actually attach to the actual toilet, it's attatched to the pipe that comes off the tap to turn off the water. Is this part hidden too? If so what happens if you need to fix your loo?:confused:

Yep the whole thing is hidden. All you can see is the seat and then the buttons to flush.
I don't know what happens when you need to fix your loo. Considering the place is brand new and we move a fair bit hopefully we'll never have to find out.

There is no sign of poo on my nappies after using the little squirt (which takes around 5-10 seconds to clean off). If I were to open the nappy bucket and look in, I'd be going off memory as to which ones had been pooy nappies:yes:

Unless of course Ariene is teething and has that bright orange poo- nothing but a good wash and lots of sun is removing that crazy stuff :rolleyes: :laughing: the poo comes off but the fabric is left with a slight tinge of colour.

I don't have a little squirt. I use a $2 plastic paint scraper and it's brilliant. Scrape poo off into toilet, then do a second scrape under running water into laundry sink. Quick and effective. Good at getting poo out of the seams on the sides of the nappies.

[HoopDeeDoo]

Because of the pressure of the water coming out of the little squirt you actually use less water than running the nappy under a tap too :yes:

Same :yes: - the only way i can tell which were pooey nappies is because they're wetter than the others (soaked from the little squirt)

LOL at the orange teething poo!!! Is THAT what makes it go that colour! :confused: I thought it was from all the pumpkin, carrot and sweet potato I've been giving Jet :laughing:
