My terry flats but they are there just in case but with my stash I don't think that will happen all that often.

The other thing is microfibre - i bought a heap and made inserts and boosters and I simply don't like them and they seem to STINK even after a couple of days in the sun. I use them to clean my new bathroom now

Eenees flushable liners. I bought a packet while I was pregnant, just to try them out to see if we wanted to use them. I think the shock of explosive bf poo (Mischa is our first baby) led us to using them up pretty quickly.... so I bought a huge roll of them from the Eenees website. I think it's 600? Anyway, we quickly realised that bf poo comes out pretty easily, got the hang of the little squirt, got used to seeing that much poo (it seemed like every nappy change in those early weeks) etc etc. So I have a huge roll of them left...

eta: It took DH at least three months to stop using them.

Oh, and talc-free powder. I bought two cannisters (?sp) of the Tinderbox baby powder while I was pregnant - one for the change table and one for the nappy bag. I've only started using it occasionally in the last month or so. And that's mainly just because I have so much of it and I'm giving it a go.

My motherease nappies that were one of my first purchases. Are fine nappies in themselves but once I bought BB, Cute Tooshies and Rosies Naps they just didn't stand a chance.

My fitted nappies, I've been converted to pockets and haven't looked back.

For those who haven't installed their Little Squirt, do it now! It has just made my life so much easier. I'm not even sure if I could have kept on with cloth using the poo scraper and the laundry sink. My 3 year old still loves to talk about the poo scraper though LOL.

I feel bad saying it, but our wool covers dont get much of a look at I dont think I have the lanolising thing down pat and over our 3 specifically night nappies the fit isnt great. I'm still working on it though!

Our terry flats are used mostly for laying over the change mat so Thomas isnt lying on cold plastic when we change him. It makes it easier to clean up if he widdles while changing too.

I'll go against the grain & say we rarely use our Little Squirt. I don't get how to use it. When I can be bothered I practice but I don't think I'll ever get the hang of it.
