19:01:38 onthebrink so cuddlebaby, are you the moderator of the diaper chat?
19:01:42 onthebrink are you a diaper expert?
19:01:49 mod_Cuddlebaby yeah  :)
19:01:57 mod_Cuddlebaby so what's your favorite diaper?
19:02:02 Miranda back
19:02:06 onthebrink we are now 100% fuzzibunz
19:02:12 onthebrink we've tried some of everything, though
19:02:20 onthebrink emma was mostly in fitteds with bummis SIWW
19:02:30 mod_Cuddlebaby I've talked with a few die hard fuzzibunz people like you  :)
19:02:38 onthebrink i LOVE them!
19:03:02 onthebrink brb
19:03:05 mod_Cuddlebaby I only have two, both newborn, which I seem to have lost int he move and now that I have a newborn, lost my fuzzibunz  :)
19:03:27 mod_Cuddlebaby my Nappie Wraps are very similar to the bummis wraps...
19:03:42 mod_Cuddlebaby I've been told.  It's what I sell the most of.
19:03:59 Miranda We use disposible with my son, but I really want to use cloth with this baby... hubby on the other hand doesn't want anything to do with cloth
19:04:15 onthebrink back
19:04:27 mod_Cuddlebaby when hubbies see how easy the modern day cloth are (especially if you get some velcro ones) they change their minds  :)
19:04:38 onthebrink do you make dipes, cuddlebaby?
19:04:39 mod_Cuddlebaby what do you stuff your fuzzibunz with?
19:04:45 mod_Cuddlebaby yeah, cuddlebaby.com
19:04:58 Miranda we would use a diaper service too so he wouldn't have to worry about cleaning them so I'm not sure what the big deal is lol
19:05:06 onthebrink oh yes, miranda!  my hubby loves the cloth!
19:05:14 onthebrink oh wow - a diaper service!
19:05:17 mod_Cuddlebaby yeah for diaper service!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
19:05:24 onthebrink i stuff FBs with a hemp insert and a microfiber towel
19:05:36 onthebrink or some combination of that, depending on need
19:05:41 mod_Cuddlebaby wow onthebrink!  what a combination!!  way cool
19:05:53 mod_Cuddlebaby miranda are you understanding our terms?
19:05:56 onthebrink yeah, i find that's what works best for us, one of each
19:06:07 Miranda not really but I'll learn
19:06:08 onthebrink oh, yes, miranda - please let us help you figure it out if you'd like!
19:06:10 mod_Cuddlebaby you get the hemp inserts online?
19:06:13 onthebrink ask lots of questions!
19:06:21 onthebrink i made them
19:06:23 mod_Cuddlebaby yeah, that's what we are here for....
19:06:35 mod_Cuddlebaby the other moderator has a great site with terms on it, I'll go find it.
19:06:40 onthebrink i bought the microfiber towels at walmart in the car care section 8 for $5
19:07:07 mod_Cuddlebaby oops sorry, hit the mouse.
19:07:30 onthebrink miranda - what made you want to use cloth?
19:08:01 Miranda I read that they are better for my baby, and better for the enviroment
19:08:04 mod_Cuddlebaby http://diaperjungle.com/cloth-diaper-terminology.html
19:08:14 onthebrink miranda - you are so right!
19:08:16 mod_Cuddlebaby diaper terminology....

19:08:33 onthebrink i use cloth for myself, incidentally
19:08:38 onthebrink using it as we speak!
19:08:45 mod_Cuddlebaby giggle!
19:08:55 mod_Cuddlebaby my business partner (cuddlebaby) makes cloth pads...
19:08:59 mod_Cuddlebaby hers are GREAT!
19:09:16 Miranda i was hoping to stay longer, but I have to run.  our dinner is done
19:09:21 Miranda I'll try to come back
19:09:33 onthebrink hi mummoth, didn
19:09:35 mod_Cuddlebaby I seldom menstruate (since I am always nursing or pregnant), but when I do I use the keeper (now known as diva cup) and cloth pads...
19:09:37 mummoth hi
19:09:38 onthebrink didn't see you come in
19:09:45 onthebrink by miranda
19:09:50 onthebrink yes, i just got my period back yesterday
19:09:54 mod_Cuddlebaby welcome mummoth!
19:10:04 mummoth Hi cuddlebaby
19:10:17 mod_Cuddlebaby what are the ages of your little ones?
19:10:21 onthebrink i've had my period 14 times since july 2000
19:10:28 mummoth DS is 3 1/2 & DD is 1
19:10:32 mod_Cuddlebaby onthebrink>first period since baby was born?
19:10:57 onthebrink yep!  with emma it was 18 months, but this time it was 9 months!  he's a much lighter" nurser than emma."
19:11:03 mod_Cuddlebaby mine range from 9 years down to 10 weeks.
19:11:18 mummoth Ive had 3? since March 2001
19:11:21 mod_Cuddlebaby makes a difference doesn't it onthe?
19:11:37 mod_Cuddlebaby what's your favorite diaper mummoth?  or do you have diaper questions?
19:11:41 onthebrink oh, totally!
19:11:49 mod_Cuddlebaby we are also talking cloth for mom if you hadn't figured that out  ;)
19:12:13 mod_Cuddlebaby wow mummoth
19:12:30 mummoth I don't have questions, not much of a hyena... DD has these diapers that I love but I don't know what kind they are... I bartered a sling for them
19:12:32 onthebrink is the diva cup just like the keeper>
19:12:40 onthebrink ?
19:12:46 mod_Cuddlebaby I've had only two since middle of 02....
19:12:52 onthebrink because i hated the keeper, but heard the diva cup might be better.
19:12:59 mod_Cuddlebaby two between Colton who is 2 and Sarah who is 10 weeks.
19:13:05 mummoth the diva cup is medical grade silicone, the keeper is natural rubber
19:13:27 mod_Cuddlebaby mummoth, do you use them?
19:14:01 mod_Cuddlebaby onthe>yes, I don't think you can even get a keeper anymore, they upgraded to silicone instead of gum rubber and renamed it the diva cup
19:14:04 mummoth I own the Diva cup but havent had an opportunity to use it yet
19:14:32 mod_Cuddlebaby I know the feeling!
19:14:43 mod_Cuddlebaby I keep losing mine since it's so long in between.
19:14:56 mummoth oh, I didnt realize it was the same company... Ive also heard of one called a mooncup
19:15:15 mod_Cuddlebaby yeah that one actually may be a competitor  ;)
19:15:32 mod_Cuddlebaby so you haven't yet used cloth diapers yet mummoth?
19:15:47 mod_Cuddlebaby do you know what kind you got in the trade?
19:15:56 mummoth es... I have a bunch of the old style of Babykins diapers..
19:16:24 mod_Cuddlebaby not even sure I've heard of them....they are fitteds?
19:16:37
