Dont let it stress you out and if you feel a break from the cloth would help, then give yourself that break :hug:

Take a break, dont beat yourself up over it.

Have you been using your prefolds or did you sell them? They dry quickly and you could get a quicker turn around time meaning you could go an extra day before washing?

what they said :hug:

Give yourself a break. I use disposables at night and cloth in the day :wave:

Definitely take a break!

I couldn't with Isabelle as she was allergic to 'sposies but Grace isn't thankfully and I have a pack for those days where they're all clean but sat upstairs in laundry baskets waiting to be put together and stuffed...

Part-time isn't the end of the world...

but don't sell them you'll definitely regret it!

Well i lasted 1 nappy change :oops:

just felt wrong having her in a sposie ... just ordered a couple of puddlekins all hours to celebrate :giggle:

yep ok you can all laugh at me now!!! :giggle:

I have a slot for med OWW but I don't think I'm going toned mediums for a while so I think might delay my slot and not worry about it for a while...

Eta, I love our bamboo ll's and am just toying with sticking with those...not as pretty but I don't have to forward plan...

I know what you mean though, it always feels wrong and weird putting Grace in a sposie...

Sounds like a good plan :wink:

We've just spent a couple of weeks in sposies because Elliott has had diarrhoea and I just couldn't keep up with the washing. TBH it was a bit of a relief but now we're back in cloth I'm so glad our rubbish bin isn't stinking so much and am a bit gutted that the money I spent on sposies I couldv'e bought a new nappy with :wink:

As for the custom nappies I have got a few but am never organised enough to know what I need in the future to be able to get a slot at the right time if that makes sense so we have loads of 'normal' ones and pre-loved too. I'm thinking with the new baby I might try terry squares, although haven't got a clue how to do them at the moment and probably little lambs. At this rate Elliott will still be in nappies :roll:
