20:28:28 host_cuddlebaby yeah, send me an email.....rebecca@cuddlebaby.com
20:28:30 kayleesmom fit kaylee is also allergic to soy
20:28:36 host_cuddlebaby maybe I'll have somethign instock soon....
20:28:54 host_cuddlebaby I have people wating a long time right now...and just can't accept anything until they are odne.
20:28:55 FitMommyOf2 wow, really? ds thankfully isn't allergic to anything so far..
20:29:00 ckberkey totally lost! hahaha
20:29:20 FitMommyOf2 cuddle, do you also offer aplix? or have chubby sizes? mine is quite a chunky monkey! lol
20:29:20 host_cuddlebaby just keep reading ckberkey....
20:29:26 host_cuddlebaby you'll catch on soon enough!
20:29:35 host_cuddlebaby my typos probably aren't helping you at all!!!
20:29:37 FitMommyOf2 ckberkey, it's fast, i admit!
20:29:47 host_cuddlebaby I'm typing faster than my computer can keep up.....so it's tough.
20:29:53 FitMommyOf2 lol
20:30:07 host_cuddlebaby yes to all fit...
20:30:10 FitMommyOf2 great idea with a chat though!
20:30:15 host_cuddlebaby side aplix, front aplix....
20:30:23 FitMommyOf2 cool, gotta check your dipes out! ;-)
20:30:33 host_cuddlebaby put in thigh size if ordering covers....and I'll custom make them...
20:30:59 host_cuddlebaby all my diapers really do do a pretty good job on all thighs so far.....rise is more important to contain messes  :)
20:31:30 z2akids Her dipes are awesome.  I can attest to that
20:31:32 host_cuddlebaby so who was allergic to hemp"



12/22/05"
20:31:47 host_cuddlebaby even if slow huh jen?
20:32:00 z2akids They're worth the wait.  Honestly.
20:32:05 FitMommyOf2 awesome!
20:32:12 host_cuddlebaby I have tomorrow devoted entirely to diaper sewing...my first day off in a LONG time....
20:32:13 kayleesmom so do u have any other suggestions for a fitted cuddlebaby
20:32:16 kayleesmom for my duaghter
20:32:18 kayleesmom i jsut emailed u
20:32:26 host_cuddlebaby hmmmm,
20:32:34 host_cuddlebaby terri of full moon baby gear.....
20:32:36 z2akids Have you tried any of the Imse Vimse one size fitteds?
20:32:38 host_cuddlebaby awesome....
20:32:47 host_cuddlebaby what else do you all recommend diaper ladies?
20:33:02 kayleesmom i find a 17 rise is good
20:33:05 FitMommyOf2 have you tried a vb fitted?
20:33:14 kayleesmom someone told me that if the rise is to big it will cuase gapping around the legs?
20:33:15 z2akids I like our peewells at night, but they're too bulky for us during the day
20:33:23 FitMommyOf2 i just got my vb simply nights, that's why i come up with vb
20:33:24 host_cuddlebaby http://fullmoonbabygear.com/
20:33:24 kayleesmom cause i had a rise of 18 with a bulky diaper on
20:33:31 kayleesmom and 16 with a brand new sposie on
20:33:46 kayleesmom i sold all my peewells they were to bulky
20:33:52 z2akids I also recently had some of our prefolds converted to prefitteds - www.tinkletraps.com - she'll to custom rises.
20:34:01 z2akids sorry - do custom rises.
20:34:02 host_cuddlebaby how'd they turn out jen?
20:34:10 kayleesmom and i cant be spening alot of money as i have to revamp my whole stash again
20:34:10 z2akids I love them actually.
20:34:15 host_cuddlebaby welcome sedjmom!
20:34:16 kayleesmom i am ready to give up i tell u
20:34:40 sedjmom hi everyone, whats the topic tonight?
20:34:47 host_cuddlebaby what's the problem again kaylees?
20:34:49 kayleesmom diapers sedj
20:34:55 z2akids preffiteds are a good option - inexpensive, you can get doublers, she does aplix, snaps or plain so you can snappie/pin them
20:35:05 host_cuddlebaby yeah diapers  :)  are you diapering anyone sedj?
20:35:05 kayleesmom she has rise of 16 with a new sposie on
20:35:11 sedjmom of course, anything in particular?
20:35:16 kayleesmom rise of 18 with a bulky bulky fitted like peewells
20:35:19 kayleesmom thigh of 10
20:35:21 kayleesmom waist of 18
20:35:25 kayleesmom 23-24 lbs
20:35:39 sedjmom yea, and 11 month old. I have cloth diapered my other two also
20:35:48 kayleesmom i didnt like prefolds or prefitted i tried them
20:35:51 host_cuddlebaby larges for sure kaylees...
20:35:57 host_cuddlebaby are you getting poop up the back?
20:36:07 host_cuddlebaby not tight enough in the waist?
20:36:07 kayleesmom well i tried a large benjamuffin and they gapped in the legs
20:36:20 kayleesmom adn she said it was cuase the rise was like 18-19 and that would cuase gapping
20:36:28 kayleesmom no gapping around the legs
20:36:32 host_cuddlebaby yeah, that is long!
20:36:39 kayleesmom can u get gapping in legs from to big of a rise
20:36:43 sedjmom anyone here ever used Fuzzy Bunz?  (I have leaking problems with them)
20:36:54 host_cuddlebaby yes kay!
20:36:55 kayleesmom i am using Fbs when we go out
20:37:05 host_cuddlebaby have some sed....
20:37:08 FitMommyOf2 i only used them when ds was a nb, and back then i didn't like them..
20:37:08 kayleesmom so she is kind a on the cusp on meds andlarges
20:37:08 z2akids Where are they leaking?
20:37:16 host_cuddlebaby I have had leaking and not leaking.....
20:37:16 kayleesmom cause her thighs but her waist is a like a large
20:37:24 host_cuddlebaby they are pretty touchy it seems.
20:37:38 sedjmom they leak around the crotch which is a problem when wearing onsies
20:37:45 host_cuddlebaby do you mean sweating?  cuz if it's leaking, as in around the legs then there isn't enough absorbency stuffed into them.
20:37:49 FitMommyOf2 oops..
20:37:51 z2akids Are you stuffing them too much/not enough?
20:37:59 kayleesmom the onesies are causing compression leaks sedj
20:38:23 kayleesmom brb potty calls
20:38:27 host_cuddlebaby yeah, sweathing....
20:38:39 host_cuddlebaby I've not had a lot of luck with fuzzi bunz and onseies.
20:38:43 sedjmom yea iam guessing that too, they are stuffed with one microfiber insert they come with but the hemp does work much better
20:38:49 host_cuddlebaby or anythign tight inthe crotch.
20:38:56 ckberkey thanks ladies... that is all the time my 2.5 yr old will let me have... I'll try again next time:)
20:39:13 host_cuddlebaby glad you came!
20:39:19 host_cuddlebaby hope we didn't overwhelm you!

20:46:56 host_cuddlebaby terri's are kind of expensive....but VERY absorbent and I find run on the large side...I'm still using smalls on my 8 monthold...
20:47:01 FitMommyOf2 but it's mainly muscle weight, so i'm not 100% happy..
20:47:20 kayleesmom i have a medium from fullmoon and it is small in waist
20:47:22 host_cuddlebaby rereading your post...velou is NOT the most absorbent fabric....20% of it polyester...
20:47:27 FitMommyOf2 sed, for me the perfect job as i love working out and also helping ppl, kwim?
20:47:30 host_cuddlebaby BUT they have a long life because of it!
20:47:42 kayleesmom i would lvoe to work out more but kay doesnt let me
20:47:47 sedjmom i would love to do anything that requires me to be outside moving around, or a Metoroligist(sp?)

20:55:03 host_cuddlebaby that's EXACTLY my excuse for baking all those cookies!
20:55:10 host_cuddlebaby too bad they end up on my rear...
20:55:23 host_cuddlebaby hemp inserts
20:55:57 host_cuddlebaby oh, surprised jen hasn't said buildup...
20:56:08 host_cuddlebaby cuz I guess that's a huge reason for leaking wiht fuzzi buns
20:56:09 sedjmom oh well, theres a price to pay for everything. I just blame it on genetics. My whole family have rearends!
20:56:17 kayleesmom i need to make choc no bake cookies
20:56:21 host_cuddlebaby so have to strip all the laundry soap residue out o fthem..
20:56:34 host_cuddlebaby ask jen (z2a) she's the expert on doing that.
