Here goes nothing!

The hirekit arrived yesterday morning... I put off putting the boys into cloth until after lunch, as neither had done their usual first-thing-in-the-morning bowel motion but not long after both were asleep with their little bottoms covered by Fuzzibunz!

Josiah seemed to like the petite-sized one I put on him... when I undid it to adjust the fit, he tried to do it up again himself! Then he bent himself in half to have a look at it, before rubbing the outside with a big smile! When my husband came home for lunch 15 minutes later, Josiah came running out of his room to show Daddy his "new" nappy! before going happily back to bed.

Xavier fit (surprisingly) into a small... I thought the rise might not be enough, but it looks like it will be, at least at the moment.

My husband saw the nappies all over the coffee table and told me that the only reason he won't let me go cloth is if I can't stay ahead on folding/putting away all the washing (including clothing/towels/linen - all the stuff we already have that I struggle to keep on top of as it is). I've got 8 weeks to prove to him (and me) that I can do it!

Ohhh i would have slapped my hubby for that commment....man if you have so much washing that you cant keep on top of it he should be helping to fold it...

You should use the augument that using cloth is better for the enviroment and easier on the pockets money wise.

good luck :)

I agree Nikki! The novelty of seeing all my cute little nappies hanging on the line still hasn't worn off for me!

I've just cleaned up my first soiled cloth nappy... and it was from Josiah. He must have a tummyache because it was worse than Xavier's (mostly liquid diet) newborn ones! On the (slightly) plus side, an old dishbrush is awesome under running water for removing the poo from the fleece, seams, PUL, trousers, and everywhere else it went!
