I am also another one who didn't use an LS at all but you might want to re-investigate flushable liners. There are different types. If you get the stronger and/or bigger ones, the whole thing just drops and flushes.

DD never had the solid roll off poos until she was almost ready to use the toilet! During a stage when her poos were really sticky, we used two of the big flushable liners. That way when I took the nappy off, there was a bit that didn't have poo on it and I would hold it above the toilet and prise off the bit that didn't have poo in it and the motion/weight would prise off the rest.

James was like that too. He always ate so much fruit (esp sultanas) that we waited years for solid poos!!

P.S. I have a LS on lay-by

MYL - bilby has gone on a veg and fruit strike (sigh) so i don't have that excuse, i wish!

EIL - which liners are the thicker ones? I have Bambino Mio at the moment.
By googling last night, i saw Imse Vimse liners (at newagenappies), bummi liners (nurturenappies) and bioliners at Nature'sChild.
WHich brand of liners is thicker?

thanks

Washable disposable liners, so with no poo they can be washed, with poo they can be thrown after I hold it in the toilet as I flush so the flush water rinses some of it. Sometimes it does a good job rinsing and can then be washed, sometimes it then just goes in the bin with th sposies.

Sometimes I do a bit more overkill and use 2 liners, a truly flushable one and a disposable one, it depends on where we are going and what facilities there are on what I will use. Going to friends places is where I tend to use the 2 liners, public places that have bins for disposables I use the disposable liner and flush as much solid as possible first anyway. When staying at relatives places I use the 2 liners as well.

Daycare we just use the disposable liner and that gets thrown out.

Pail refers to the bucket you put your nappies in. So, dry pailing is just putting your nappies in a dry bucket. Some people soak their nappies but its not necessary IMO.

I have a LS at home. When I went away, well its happened a few times now, I bought a spatular from the supermarket that is a designated poo one. I got the idea from one of the sticky's here at NC.

Works a treat for getting chunks off eg. Saltanas, everything that you cant scrape off should come off in the wash.

I used Eenees flushable liners when on holiday in Malaysia.
Then again, I could've gotten away without them because it is customary to have a LS-like toilet squirter next to most toilets, including public loos (they don't provide toilet paper in most places though)

Do note though that not all disposable liners are flushable!

ETA: I asked Dad to buy me 3 toilet squirters from Malaysia, works a treat! And much cheaper than those you buy here: with the Malaysian exchange rate, you can get them for around AU$10-15 each.
You would still need to buy the t-joint from a hardware store though. We didn't as we built this house, and added on extra ministops next to each toilet

I've only used the Eenies and the bio-liners - both are flushable.

The eenies are very large but also quite thin. So if you were having trouble with sticky poos, then I would use a double layer of eenies so you can peel off the liners by holding the top bits (the bit with no poo, obviously) and flush the whole thing down the loo.

The bio-liners are smaller but thicker. They are great for catching sticky poos and easy to take off (just shake really) BUT not good for the big sticky poo-er.
