Welcome to Giveaway #9, hosted by Bean Sprout Bubba.

Please feel free to get to know more about us, or continue reading more about our entry in the 100 Green Promise Initiative (Autumn round).

We go back to basics with this round’s giveaway by Bean Sprout Bubba: a Bubba J pocket nappy  in ‘Apple Green’ (large).
The prize includes 1 bamboo trifold insert and 1 microfibre booster.

From 15 May – 30 June 2010, you will be given the opportunity to submit an answer to a question on the Bean Sprout Bubba website for Giveaway #9 to be in the draw to win a Bubba J Pocket Nappy in Apple Green.
It has a trim smooth PUL outer for a trimmer nappy.

The inner lining of the prize nappy is white microsuede.

Bubba J pocket nappies were one of the first hip-snapping pocket nappies available in Australia. It was designed in 2005-2006, featuring polyester PUL in pastels and bright prints.
It is one of my personal favourite nappies for leakproofness and pooplosion resistance :)

Features and benefits include:

  • PUL laminated Polyester outer: for waterproofness with breathability, and a stylish and colourful print on the outside without any fear of moisture wicking (like in nappies with cotton outers).
  • Microsuede lining: Keeps baby dry by wicking moisture through to the inner absorbant core.
  • One 2-layered bamboo trifold insert and one 3-layered microfibre booster included: Use both inserts for day or night, or purchase extra trifolds for heavy wetting night use. All inserts unfold for a thorough wash and quick drying ability.
  • Hip-snapping: waist and thigh fit can be set separately, ensuring a good fit for no leaks.
  • Elasticated in the front: to ensure good fit around the waist
  • Generous pocket: provides extra room within the pocket for extra boosting without compromising fit around the waist.

Tested to fit bubs from 3.5kg (small size) up to about 15-16kg (large size), depending on your baby’s built. You may like read more about Bubba J and see fabric choices (see ‘Photos’), or have a look at what testers had to say.

Those new to modern cloth often start off their journey into cloth nappies with a simple All-in-one (AIO) nappy, where all the waterproofing and absorbancy is sewn into the nappy. There’s no need to fiddle around with inserts or snapping bits into the nappy.

To make it easier to use cloth nappies, Bean Sprout Bubba has a range of nappy accessories in stock to help you use cloth when out and about, or when removing waste from nappies.

Focus product: Rockin’ Green Detergent

One of these accessory products will help you combat the stinkies in the laundry — Rockin’ Green Detergent!
Rockin’ Green Detergent is a laundry washing powder specially formulated for modern cloth nappy laundry.
Unlike conventional laundry detergent, this detergent is designed to wash out of nappy fibres without leaving any residue, carrying along stinky smelly molecules away from your beloved nappies.
Some mums swear by a once a month ‘Rockin’ a Soak’ strip wash with Rockin’ Green Detergent to freshen up their nappies. Others simply use it in place of their normal detergent when washing nappies.

At Bean Sprout Bubba we have a special Rockin’ Green offer: buy 2 big bags of the same scent and formula, and get $1.95 off (per 2-bag pair).

For more information about how to use cloth nappies, simply hover your mouse pointer over ‘Nappy 101′ at the top of this blog page.

Who won a fabulous BHB Ring Sling?

So I have been running this little Bear Hug Baby competition on Facebook where people could nominate the colour ring sling they loved and why.
Some people love the colour, others wanted to prepare for a newborn baby (awww… I really miss newborn cuddles in the ring sling!), still others would love to win the sling as a gift to a new mum.

I wrote down all your names in paper scraps and got Abi to draw the winner.

She was so excited that she drew and opened up TWO names: Brenda Y & Mandi M!

Brenda picked Purple Passion because she loved the vibrant purple hue. I have to admit, it is a wonderful colour. Made in super soft 100% cotton peach drill, the Super Soft Original Ring Sling (Ltd Ed) is a bit softer than the original BHB ring slings and comes in lovely shades of limited edition colours.

Mandi preferred the brown (String) BHB original ring sling, simply because it ‘looks fab’ :)
Hope you’d enjoy using this on your little newborn!

To celebrate the end of the giveaway I have 5% off BHB ring slings using the code as seen on the Bean Sprout Bubba Facebook page.
Code is good till 7 December 2009 23:59.
