For the new baby! As you all know, I already have an impressive stash of mediums, but as the gremlins started out in flats and pins I don't have any smalls.
So now I *need* new nappies! I've already bought 4 Fuzzis, 3 Baby Harmonys and a Berry Plush, but what else should I add to my small stash? -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)

Hire kit would be cheaper! Then you get to try HEAPS of different nappies first. Do you think this one would fit into mediums after a few months? ------------- Aimee Hannah 22/10/05 Greer 11/02/08 |

Ecobubs? I am/was planning on getting a hire kit so I could try all the different types without the cost, but the darn Nappy Network girls keep selling off bits of their stash and I keep buying!
I have also started making my own NB fitteds. So now have a wee nappy collection started...not good! Maybe I can just live vicariously through you, Emma! ------------- Mum to two gorgeous girls! |

Hmmm, I would be saying wait for the scan just in case its a lovely little boy. Then you can go crazy with boy coloured nappies in all sizes But I would say some Foxybots, maybe some Tweedles and Baby Harmony's??? ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

Sorry to hijack the thread, but where and how do I get my hands on a hire kit? I'm based in Wellington.
Can I get a kit with multiple types / brands of nappies? As reluctant as I am to actually start on cloth within the first 6 weeks, my mum will be staying with us during this time so would be easiest with regard the washing and just having the extra She put 5 of us through flat nappies so is in strong support of me going cloth. Even more so than BF actually as she used formula for all of us

Oh, how lovely! I'd love a new baby to wrap in cloth napppies as Leo didn't start in cloth til he was 5mths (I ignorantly used disposables before that). My sister has a 4wk old baby and my mum made her some newborn pockets for the tiny stage and she's getting on brilliantly with them! I was a bit skeptical before the baby came along but he looks so cute in them and she doesn't have any leaks!! They also cost a fraction of the cost of a 'big brand' nappy.

Aha, but we aren't finding out the sex, so unisex colors it is!
Am definitely getting a bubblebubs, mostly for the cute factor coz not sure how they would go function wise with newborn explosions. Plus of course some of Debbies gorgeous nappies. Aimee - gremlins were in meds at 8 weeks, and I'm figuring on this one being a wee bit bigger than them, bt will prob keep this one in smalls till they TT out of their meds. ------------- Maya Grace (28/02/03)

| Emma, I never had problems with explosions out of our bubblebub...it just started leaking after a couple of hours with mega wetting boy pee. I dont think he is a megawetter now though. |
