Additcted to Itti’s??

Ohhh....I get ya! I don't do that when they are dirty LOL I just cross them over really tight. Might have to try that when I use the wet bag next.

Bex, I'm dreading our holiday in Sept for that reason! It will be easier using sposies but will be weird LOL I need shopping space so won't be taking them

Yep same here Although I've found budget to be the best for my boy's sensitive bum.

Oh yes definitely...They are still going strong, they are not as plush as the newer ones I've got but then again they've been sat on a fair bit . I only had basically enough to cover one day & night for over 6 months so these all had daily use. I also didn't hang them properly to save elastic stretch. He's been in meds since Sept last year. I had 8 smalls which I paid less than RR($240ish) for & then I on sold them for $115 (mix of new & 2nd hand) I replaced those 8 with another 8, again mix new(mostly)/old. It's only recently that I've bought a few new ones in the fancy prints.

If you used a dryer they'd be almost like new.

Also you need to look at how much disposables cost over one childs life & how much you spend on MCN's they are definitely a saving.

I think I've spent all up around $700?? I think that is including my on selling. Looking at Pams at $7.00 a packet & all the nappy creams I would have been using plus nappy wipes I reckon I would have spent far more. My boy is a super wee'er & disposables give him nappy rash. So for me apart from not spending $10-15 each shop on nappies it's more to do with his skin. I don't use disposables over night & If we go away we use cloth, hense my dilemma about going away to Oz for 2 weeks as his skin will suffer.

So if you are sensible & don't go buying nappies left, right & centre then for sure they are definitely a cost saving.

I saw somewhere that you should hang them by their tabs & then the insert (AIO) so back tab, front tab & insert. So they go sideways along the line. I used to hang them from just the front hanging down so the weight of the wet insert was dragging on the elastic.

I used to hang the SIO's with the insert on them but now I detach.

There are a few more hints on Itti Bitti facebook today.

Don't spin them so fast & they will be fluffier, downside I reckon they'll take longer to dry.

Front loading up the water level cause the nappies soak up a fair bit. I have got around this by doing the prewash function on mine.

Also a friend of mine reckons to snap up the AIO's with the tongue hanging out to retain elastic.
