cloth. We didn't need to buy anything for #3 lol |
|
19:24:36 |
lilangelsfc |

lilangelsfc |
I am an inhome childcare provider so I can empathize |
|
19:25:30 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
how did you first learn about cloth diapering? |
|
19:25:54 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
I was a licensed day care provider for 5 years....well
still am but don't do it anymore. |
|
19:25:58 |
lilangelsfc |
I happened across the cloth board on bbc while I was
cruising around on the June birth club |
|
19:26:14 |
lilangelsfc |
me too, I am going on 6 years now |
|
19:26:15 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |

|
19:26:43 |
lilangelsfc |
Iam looking to get out of childcare now though, I have
had some real dead beat parents lately |
|
19:26:53 |
lilangelsfc |
I bought some from ebay that I love |
|
19:27:00 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
it's always the parents isn't it? |
|
19:27:05 |
lilangelsfc |
I believe it was sweet dreams dipes |
|
19:27:12 |
lilangelsfc |
love the kids, the parents are rough |
|
19:27:20 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
yup |
|
19:27:33 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
so, a three week old huh? how was birth? |
|
19:27:38 |
lilangelsfc |
I live in a really small town so it makes it harder to
fill |
|
19:27:48 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
352 in my town. |
|
19:27:51 |
lilangelsfc |
birth was rough, I was induced again. 20 hrs |
|
19:27:58 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
UGH!!!' |
|
19:28:09 |
lilangelsfc |
lol we have around 800 including country people |
|
19:28:28 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
the town where I grew up and recently moved *from* is
800., |
|
19:28:52 |
lilangelsfc |
my first dd was 24 hrs, 2nd was 3 days before she
finally appeared" so I guess this baby couldn't be shown
up" |
|
19:29:00 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
but it is more of a bedroom community, I'd say a third
are farmers, rest just sleep there and work in the BIG
city of 30,000 |
|
19:29:09 |
lilangelsfc |
wow that must have been a huge change for you |
|
19:29:29 |
lilangelsfc |
the closest city to us is 45 minutes away |
|
19:29:54 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
well it is, i guess you figured out that I had been in
that town all of my life (since I was six), I'm now 36
and moved for the first time in my life. |
|
19:30:08 |
lilangelsfc |
wow that would be hard |
|
19:30:21 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
it was! It was just last fall. |
|
19:30:26 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
you have difficult births... |
|
19:30:30 |
lilangelsfc |

well my dh thinks i have entirely too much |
|
19:47:00 |
reese |
wool |
|
19:47:01 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
they all do |
|
19:47:06 |
reese |
i'm addicted to wool |
|
19:47:07 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
really? |
|
19:47:17 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
that's one area to which I have not ventured. |
|
19:47:24 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
you mean for soakers? |
|
19:47:27 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
or absorbency? |
|
19:47:41 |
reese |
that and i love velours, i wish i could get my hands on
that ov |
|
19:47:48 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
ov? |
|
19:47:55 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
something velour? |
|
19:48:01 |
reese |
oh i love wool as a cover but in general i love sewing
with wool |
|
19:48:09 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
organic velour? |
|
19:48:14 |
reese |
organic velour |
|
19:48:34 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
yeah, I guess that's hard to come by (according to terri
of fmbg) |
|
19:48:35 |
reese |
i use either bkt or hemp/cotton fleece or terry for
soaker |
|
19:48:37 |
reese |
s |
|
19:49:09 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
yeah, absorbency right? I say soakers are the absorbent
part of the diaper but some call the wool covers
soakers. |
|
19:49:29 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
would wool be good to make the body of the diaper with
though? |
|
19:49:33 |
reese |
the hand knitted are soakers, so it does get confusing
lol |
|
19:49:46 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
yeah, do you knit or crochet? |
|
19:50:23 |
reese |
hm im not sure, i 've used wool as a liner" as an
experiment, that worked well" |
|
19:50:45 |
reese |
no i suck with the hooks and needles, i'm a sewing
machine freak LOL |
|
19:51:06 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
hmmm, have you used the knitted wool soakers? |
|
19:51:28 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
yeah me too. I can crochet but by comparison sewing
with teh machine is MUCH faster. |
|
19:51:39 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
I'll leave the crocheting to my sisters and mother. |
|
19:51:54 |
reese |
no i can't afford much so never spent the money on a
soaker |
|
19:52:11 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
yeah, that's my problem, don't want to part with the $$
for wool |
|
19:52:20 |
reese |
lol in my case not only faster but much nicer |
|
19:52:21 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
have you used wool jersey or other mixes? |
|
19:52:44 |
reese |
i like both wool jersey and flannel marino is very
dreamy |
|
19:53:07 |
mod_Cuddlebaby |
never heard of flannel marino |
|
19:53:13 |
