I really don't get these nappy cakes. I was bought one when my son was born. It was full of size 3 disposable nappies (we use reusables), dummies (baby wouldn't take one), hairbrush and comb (baby is 10 months old now and I've never used them). Only things that have been useful were a couple of blankets and a flannel. Vouchers would have been a better present.

If anyone wants a bag of rolled up size 3 nappies, let me know. I'm sick of falling over the damn things.

Those nappy cakes look familiar to me. I hope it's the person that made them that's selling the course :whistle:

OK here goes Will stick my neck out and say what i am thinking..

Selfish....VeRy selfish,. to think that the person who bought you the cake could have just walked into a dept store blindfolded and picked up a gift...or bought a voucher without moving off the sofa'......instead they asked somebody to hand create a gift for you using what most mummies would require for a baby......

From a successful, busy nappy cake creator to an ungrateful mum.

I agree, just because they didn't understand the wishes of the mum, please don't dismiss nappy cakes. I have had two children and often received (gratefully!), clothes etc which the children have worn once or twice and quickly grown out of. I have since made a pact with my friends that we will get practical gifts upon the births of our children and have bought nappies and baby milk since then. I think nappy cakes are a lovely mix between creative and practical and would have loved to have received one when my kids were younger.
