Yes I did hear who that was but hadn't heard anything offically...wonder when she's going to make an announcement.

And I am seriously thinking about it. I've developed such a passion for cloth nappies and perhaps it means I could stay at home instead of going back to work.

I'm telling you, once you make that first step and get into cloth you do not look back!! I can't imagaine why we ever thought disposables were easier now...to me cloth are every bit as easy. Ok yeah there is the washing but even that is easy as to do (no scrubbing these days!! ).

Addictive?? Cloth nappies??? What...just because I've bought a total of 17 this week! (to be fair a bulk lot of them are from an extememly good TM purchase of fuzzis and liners and boosters and inserts and tote bag etc...full supply of the next size I need plus a couple extra of the size after that.)

ok - i've just done a bit of looking for you and out of the retailers doing the scheme i would prob go for either:

bumbles
ecobots
joel eze
and maybe natural parenting.

ecobots is a prefold system, joel eze are pockets (affordable tho and made by a local WAHM), bumbles do several diff types but the CCC packs are two diff types of fitteds and natural parenting do a one size fitted.

this is just my opinion tho and i picked these cause then if you liked the nappy it wouldnt cost a fortune to get more of the same or because they were best value for money ...

he he i think the signature with nappy expert on it was someone having fun, not a real title. but yeah i second the nappy network for their review section, very handy if you know what sort of nappy you prefer. also there are a couple of cloth nappy posts on here with some good info too.
maybe if you know what companies are participating in the cloth subsidy scheme you could check them out too and see what they are offering. actually there is a link to that info too on the nappy network.

good luck ]]> Thu, 30 Nov 2006 17:35:09 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4681&PID=90493&title=cloth-nappies#90493 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4681&PID=90490&title=cloth-nappies#90490 Author: kezplanet
