It's Time to Get Fluffy...

So there are things I did with BB that I won't be doing this time round.
-Listening to other people's advice without thinking about what I wanted
-Moving him into his own room early
-Trying to put him down a lot
- Having constant visitors in the first few weeks
- Not accepting help
- Not doing what I wanted to do because other people said it wouldn't work
And it goes on....

My biggest regrets would be stopping breastfeeding too early and not cloth nappying.

I'm not going to put massive pressure on myself to breastfeed for a set amount of time, I just know I want to go for as long as we are both happy, however long that may be (despite DB's objections that they are 'his' boobies.... ) I'd love to breastfeed for a year+, but let's see how it goes!

And using cloth. I told everybody I wanted to use cloth when I was pregnant with BB. Had I done as I'd wanted and not listened to my mother/mother-in-law etc about how much hard work it was, I would be laughing. I'd have a full set of cloth nappies by now which I could use for Little Bear, and would have had a lot more disposable income for pretty ones!

So I'm slowly building up my stash, which includes so far
2 Newborn Bumgenius
1 Newborn Bambooty
1 Newborn Tiny Nipper
2 Size 1 Little Lamb microfibre
2 Small Motherease Sandys
3 Various small wraps
3 close-parent pop ins
1 blueberry one-size pocket
2 cheapy pockets
and a bundle of boosters

which sounds like a lot, but it isn't enough! Because I'm moving BB over to cloth as soon as I've got some more. I'm going to have a trial cloth day next week and if we get on with a particular brand, get some more.]

I must say, seeing all my fluff drying on the airer makes me excited! But is a dangerous addiction... I dream about nappies, spend most of my day shopping for nappies or talking about nappies or trying to convince DB we need two matching custom nappies for the boys! I can't wait until next payday - I NEED MORE FLUFF!!!!!!

Got my way in the end!
