   I have been oggling over an American nappy brand "Blueberry Diapers" for about a year now after hearing about them on a UK cloth nappy forum board.  They get really good reviews, in particular their minky nappies - side snap & OSFA (in velcro & popper versions!).  Anyway, today when I was looking at the website (making a mental wishlist) I noticed that listed under the 'Where To Buy' section was an option for New Zealand!  When I clicked on it the page was blank, but I can only guess that this means they will soon be stocked here!  I am soooooo excited at the thought and just wondered if any of you lovely retailers - Karyn, Rachel etc? - have any idea who will be stocking Blueberry Diapers?
 If anyone is interested in looking at the Blueberry site click here Vic xx

   I have made enquiries into these ~~ their minimum order requirements are HUGE! which is quite a high risk when we don't know how well they will sell    |

   yeah!  massive! I think it is a bit ridiculous how much we have to spend out, and I emailed and said would they reconsider the amount, as we are a small country, and they didn't even bother to respond    and that is very much a pet hate of mine! so I was put off.

   Maybe you two could go halves?? 
I hate it when companies dont bother to respond, it makes me not want to bother with buying anything from them!

 The popper one-size looks similar in style to the Swaddlebees one-size PUL nappy, but obviously they use those lovely minky prints.  But the the other styles (one-size velcro & side-snap sized) look quite different to Swaddlebees.  I like the look of their combo inserts too.  I'd love a minky one-size with poppers in cow print!!
 Shame about the stock numbers    Vic xx

   Maybe it'll be Mums and Bubs seeing as they stock Swaddlebees?

   I wouldn't buy anything from mum & bubs from what I've heard about their online store service, so not much good there.

   Really whats wrong the service? I have found one lady in the shop quite rude and would only let me look at one kind of nappy. Amy the girl who runs it is lovely tho.
