We use cloth nappies, plus cloths at home but baby wipes when out - will try the cloths in a Tupperware container once I run out.
I make mu own baby food as well although I am running out of interesting options for Jack, especially finger foods.

I make my own baby food.. WAY cheaper than buying it, and bought some baby bowls with lids for when we have to go out.]]> Mon, 21 Jan 2008 11:32:00 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13776&PID=282204&title=diy-baby-item-ideas#282204 <![CDATA[DIY baby item ideas : Oh I like the toothbrush holder...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13776&PID=282187&title=diy-baby-item-ideas#282187 Author: sparkle

Oh I like the toothbrush holder idea!!

I use the "Friends" brand of nappy bags to dispose of nappies when out etc but when I'm at home I just hang a bag over the rail of Coopers change table and put all the days nappies in one bag. As it has the nice scent it masks the "nappy" smell and I get about 5 nappies in it before having to put it in the bin.

I also use cloth wipes, but that's because Cooper has sensitive skin and bought wipes are just like sand paper on his butt!

Zinc and Castor Oil cream I get on prescription so that it only costs me the 70c subsidy instead of $8.00 a jar in the shops.]]> Mon, 21 Jan 2008 11:15:19 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13776&PID=282187&title=diy-baby-item-ideas#282187 <![CDATA[DIY baby item ideas : Save on wipes by using cloth wipes...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13776&PID=281885&title=diy-baby-item-ideas#281885 Author: 3boys

Save on wipes by using cloth wipes - when out wet with water, squeeze out a little and place in a Tupperware container - they will stay moist and be ready when you need them.]]> Sun, 20 Jan 2008 21:46:36 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13776&PID=281885&title=diy-baby-item-ideas#281885 <![CDATA[DIY baby item ideas : There is a thread that has been...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13776&PID=281780&title=diy-baby-item-ideas#281780 Author: mummy_becks

having a baby is a very expensive exercise so I would be interested in anyone's DIY baby item ideas.
For instance I got sick of going through thousands of zip lock bags to put dirty spoons in when we were out and about so I went the $2 shop and bought single toothbrush travel cases - Jack's spoons fit in there quite well and I no longer have dirty spoons in my baby bag.
I would love to hear other people's money saving ideas]]> Sun, 20 Jan 2008 18:45:21 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13776&PID=281779&title=diy-baby-item-ideas#281779
