concerned - went inside and saw them (old apt manager) |

|
19:12:07 |
host_diaperjungle |
Me :) |
|
19:12:39 |
host_diaperjungle |
I like AIOs for ease of use. But I like fitteds and covers
for smaller babies :) |
|
19:13:19 |
host_diaperjungle |
I like snaps too but I like velcro better becuase you can
customize the fit. |
|
19:15:22 |
host_Cuddlebaby |

Ok...are there any good sites for sewing your own diapers?
And what fabrics would I need? |
|
19:18:45 |
host_diaperjungle |
www.diapersewing.com
|
|
19:18:53 |
willowsmom |
fabulous. :) Thanks! |
|
19:19:29 |
host_diaperjungle |
As for fabric....you can use, flannel, fleece, PUL, cotton
knits, the possibilities are endless. I have tried just
about everything. |
|
19:19:29 |
guest_VJ |
for toddlers what do you recommen dlol |
|
19:19:35 |
guest_VJ |
lol |
|
19:19:51 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
tons of absorbency :) |
|
19:20:34 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
towels, receiving blankets, t shirts....flannel shirts... |
|
19:20:51 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
after you get good, you could invest some $$ in some hemp
which is the best for absorbency. |
|
19:21:07 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
hello safetymom!!! |
|
19:21:08 |
host_diaperjungle |
Flannel will help them realize they are wet....Burley knit
terry is very absorbent...it is what I use in my diapers |
|
19:21:14 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
did I speak to you earlier? |
|
19:21:22 |
safetymom |
Yup! :) |
|
19:21:33 |
host_diaperjungle |
hemp is also great, I agree Rebecca :) |
|
19:21:39 |
safetymom |
We love hemp here. |
|
19:22:02 |
guest_VJ |
i guess flannel is good for him? hes shortly going to potty
train |
|
19:22:12 |
guest_VJ |
but are the diapers easy to take off? he always take his
dipes off |
|
19:22:41 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
shall we all reintro for safety mom? just ages of kids :) |
|
19:22:49 |
willowsmom |
I'm back..sorry...what is PUL? |
|
19:23:01 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
poly urathane laminate. |
|
19:23:09 |
host_diaperjungle |
Sounds like snaps might be best |
|
19:23:16 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
waterproof backing usuallly applied to apoly fabric, it's
what covers are made from... |
|
19:23:21 |
willowsmom |
k ty :) |
|
19:23:32 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
yeah snaps for toddlers so they can't come out of them. |
|
19:23:41 |
willowsmom |
I've been usin Kushies...but Man oh man...if I could make my
own. lol I'd be set |

Hi, my name is Tiffany, WAHM to 2 and one on the way. |
|
19:24:20 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
hey Tiffany, give safety your urls, she collects them :) |
|
19:24:31 |
safetymom |
I am Susie, mom to 4 girls. They are 10, 7, 4 and 18
months. |
|
19:24:31 |
willowsmom |
Hi Tiffany...me too :D |
|
19:24:43 |
guest_VJ |
i have snappies? |
|
19:25:08 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
you use those in lieu of diaper pins... |
|
19:25:16 |
safetymom |
I lost all of my bookmarks recently and had to go back to an
old version. It was tough. Very tough. |
|
19:25:37 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
i bet |
|
19:26:00 |
host_diaperjungle |
My URLs:
http://www.diaperjungle.com and
http://www.jellybeandiapers.com |
|
19:26:26 |
safetymom |
Thanks! I have been both places today. :) |
|
19:26:31 |
willowsmom |
Very cool |
|
19:26:33 |
host_diaperjungle |
I have snappis too. I use them occasionally :) |
|
19:27:09 |
safetymom |
I have always wondered. Can you really snappi a prefold so
that you don't have to use a cover? I have always just
thrown a prefold into a velcro cover. |
|
19:27:37 |
safetymom |
Female fetus. |
|
19:27:48 |
safetymom |
oops. |
|
19:28:06 |
host_diaperjungle |
I used snappis on prefolds but I still covered them. You
don't have to though.... |
|
19:28:17 |
safetymom |
I thought it might be nice to do in the summer. |
|
19:28:21 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
yeah, I'd still cover them. |
|
19:28:40 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
and it depends on how tightly the cover fits as to whether
or not you have to fasten the prefold in place.. |
|
19:28:52 |
safetymom |
I have some Fern and Faerie denim dipes for summer as well,
in the hopes that I won't have to use a cover all the time. |
|
19:29:02 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
yeah in the summer I have been known to pin a prefold on and
no cover.... |
|
19:30:00 |
safetymom |
I try to get covers that fit pretty well, since I usually
don't pin or snappi. I have some cuddlebaby covers that I
haven't used for prefolds cause they just wander around in
the cover. I could probably use them if I snappied, eh? |
|
19:30:09 |
willowsmom |
Pre folds have the thickness in the middle right? |
|
19:30:27 |
safetymom |
Yep. They look like a rectangle with extra layers in the
middle. |
|
19:30:32 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
yes ma'am |
|
19:31:01 |
host_Cuddlebaby |
yup :) |
|
19:31:09 |
