    Yeah that makes sense SJ :) I have 2 packs of Newborn Huggies so I have 54 nappies so far :)

    EA I got the Tommee Tippee closer to nature bottles cos they are meant to be like the breast and I was going to use them (which MIL still had something bad to say, sticking nose in!)

    EVANSANGEL... I breastfed for 9 months, but had to introduce a bottle when I went back to work (approx 6 months) DD had never had a dummy (personally hate them, lol) and went onto bottles ONLY if they were breastmilk, without a problem, as long as I wasn't around. They know you have the milk supply so why should they accept bottle?! She first started having the odd one when I went to the gym/shopping etc and was left one with her dad, because at least then there wasn't a massive prob if she wouldn't take it.

    I have about 200 nappies already :eek: Although I'm into buying size 2's now!! The only branded ones I have are the ones from vouchers / packs etc. Any that I have just bought have been supermarket own brand - mainly asda.

    I like the look of the CTN range too, had everything Avent last time but chucked all the bottles 'cos they go all yellow after a while.

    Pampers gave my DS horrendous nappy rash last time (as did ALL brands of wipes!! Cotton wool and warm water for us!) , so used Huggies when he was newborn as we were given a load, then as we were potless went onto Asda nappies which turned out fab!! Hope they're still as good.

    EA, can I add you as a friend on Facebook?

    agh, I don't have a single nappy to my name! We're doing cloth but want to grab a few packs for the hospital & the first few days. So I've got about half of what I need for cloth ones, but no disposable nappies or wipes...deffo a trip to Sbury's this weekend to use my Pampers voucher before expiry :D
