Pick me too becks. I was using fulltime cloth at home nearly all winter till a few weeks ago. Grrr I need to get them all out of the draw and have them all sitting there, that usually gets me all cloth ready as they are just sooo cute on a little bum running around lol

I went through this too all winter because our clothes line doesn't get any sun in winter and so the cloth naps were starting to smell.

Now it's sunny I'm getting back into cloth and while my Bum Genius are super reliable it's my plush itti bitti that is making me happiest

Maybe we need a "spring is here - reclaim the cloth love" competition run by our many supplier members *hint hint*

Oh thank you Gen, so glad it isn't me. I am trying to only use the sposies at night now - hopefully I can stick to that.

I hear you, we've been a bit slack lately especially with me being on extended leave and trying to get back on my feet. We're only using cloth part time really at the moment. ]]> Wed, 01 Oct 2008 16:59:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21336&PID=505840&title=finding-the-cloth-love-again#505840 <![CDATA[Finding the cloth love again : Alianasmummy wrote:I have 7...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21336&PID=505787&title=finding-the-cloth-love-again#505787 Author: MorgansMum

I find the best way to regain my love for cloth is to stop buying sposies!
If I don't have them I can't fall back on using them when I'm feeling lazy or whatever.
All it takes is a couple of days back in fulltime cloth for me to realise how easy and cheap it really is.

I am so put off sposies by the price!!!!!!!! I went to buy a pack of Huggies last week because Leo had bad nappy rash (too many tomatoes!) and often a sposie overnight really helps, but I was gobsmacked at the price - $15 something a pack!! - luckily they were on coupon at New World but even still it was $10.99 and I really begrudged handing the money over at the till. Especially knowing it was only going to be thrown away.   That was the third of a price of an Itti Bitti!!! ]]> Wed, 01 Oct 2008 14:05:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21336&PID=505646&title=finding-the-cloth-love-again#505646 <![CDATA[Finding the cloth love again : Is it?? time is flying past!!!...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21336&PID=505616&title=finding-the-cloth-love-again#505616 Author: Alianasmummy

Ive got my itti bittis on the line and i have just ordered some more, just looking at them brings on the love of cloth nappies for me!
each time you use a cloth one you are saving money on disposables not to mention the environment... And think how much more cosy on little bums the microfleece is compared to a papery disposable
An extra load of washing every couple of days is worth it in the long run
Maybe sell off some of your stash on trade me and replace it with some AIO ittis, then theres no folding or finding inserts, stuffing and sorting and they look and feel SOOOO yummy!
I hope the love comes back to you, because the environment loves you for it ]]> Wed, 01 Oct 2008 12:59:07 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21336&PID=505564&title=finding-the-cloth-love-again#505564 <![CDATA[Finding the cloth love again : I am the same at the moment Becks!...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21336&PID=505544&title=finding-the-cloth-love-again#505544 Author: My3Sons
