How many people have you converted?

Postby ellemonkey » Wed Jul 20, 2011 8:22 pm

My sil is pregnant and I have offered to give her a set of nappies to try out next time she is up, she is game and willing to give it a whirl after seeing my LO's pockets and itti's.

I think she may be my first convert! :hohoho:

No one yet either :-?
Most of my friends' babies are already out of nappies and most of the mums from my NCT class think I'm a little nuts for wanting all the extra work of cloth - though they do like the woollies! :giggle:
I've also had some quite negative comments from other people when I've mentioned using cloth with Erin, so most of the time now I keep my mouth shut unless specifically asked :|

1 so far. A friend I made when ethan was little at a mums and tots group was curious so I showed her a few of ethans nappies and told her about CNT. She then came on here and bought a BG birth to potty set in classifieds and was converted. Am hoping to convert more this time round :-)

Two, almost three. Two friends who knew I had successfully used cloth and asked loads of questions and took the plunge themselves with success. The third was my sister who tried but had prefolds which really didn't work with her poorly, failure to thrive baby. Getting the baby more well proved way more important than trying to get cloth to work for them. My neice is now 4 and thriving but it was a long hard road and hopefully her last op for a while happened in April :-) In this context cloth just wasn't important.
