Lately, I have been thinking a lot about life balance and family and priorities in life.

Since starting Bean Sprout Bubba, things have been on the go-go-go. But I have realised that, in the end, my family is all that matters. Now that Bean Sprout Bubba is steadier and does not require long hours like during the initial start-up period, I have focussed more on spending more time with my growing girls.

In fact, I was planning to launch a new nappy product ecoBumba one-size pocket nappies in March 2010 to coincide with the Great Cloth Nappy Hunt (just over now), but family life got in the way. In a good way.

Bottom Right: Check out the front view of the new ecoBumba onesize pocket nappy on the medium setting.

After coming back from Singapore, it took a very long time for me to get back into the routine of life back home. Travel weariness seemed to have caught up with me, and took about 2 weeks to recover from. Then there was nausea, and a little bleeding to add to the confusion. There was absolutely no sewing done for more than a month, I could cut fabric but could not sit down and sew without having a big headache. Towards the end of March, we finally confirmed what we had always been suspicious of: we’re having another baby!

In fact, by the time the scans were done, the first trimester was almost over.

So, yes. ecoBumba had to wait for another month for a very good reason indeed.

I’m busily sewing up a storm now of plain coloured ecoBumba one-size nappies for in stock nappies at an extremely affordable price, plus a few more patterned nappies if time permits. I have a few ecoBumba requests from friends in Bunbury to fill, photos to take, and then ecoBumba will launch in earnest. There’s a new website coming too. If you want to know when it all happens please subscribe to our newsletter.

In the meantime, do check out the photo albumss of fabrics I have on hand on the Bean Sprout Bubba Facebook page.
There is one for PUL fabrics that I have, and another one for minky.
I do have a few plain coloured minky choices too, I just need to take some photos and upload them for you.

Yes going through a bit of a mental block here.
What would you like to read about on this blog?

Shop news? Useful and informative, but potentially boring.
Nappy info? Yes, but what would you like to know?
Babywearing stories? That’s possible.

Other websites? Yes that’s possible too.

Hmmm going to have a think again.

Yell out if you have any other ideas.

Back story: Attended a wedding 2 hours away on saturday and only got back home at 1am. Facing the consequences of lost sleep, hopefully I get back on track very soon
