What a day…..

I am trying to get all of the galleries updated before I send out the custom order information but of course there is a glitch and I have to contact my web designer.  I updated the knit fabric gallery but several swatches are missing from both the Anti Pill fleece gallery and the Malden Mills gallery. I am going to temporarily use Slide.com in lieu of the gallery on my home page. I hope to have the home galleries updated by next week’s stocking.

I have to go to my cousin’s wedding, and help DH get ready for a business meeting for which he will be away all next week. I will get everything emailed by Midnight EST. I am going as fast as I can I promise.

Please note the size of your diaper most often used under the soaker:

Waist:

1.  What was your initial reaction when seeing the product? Satistfaction? Disappointment? Why?

2. How does the product fit?  One thing I am particularly concerned with is the rise. Please pay close attention to how the rise fits. Did it the soaker fit over diapers within the same size category? For example, did the small soaker fit over your small sized diapers.

3.  (Where applicable) What was your child’s reaction to the product? Was it comfortable for them to wear? Did the express interest in the design (If relevant.)?

4. What is you opinon of the construction of the product? What would you improve and why?

5a. Would you purchase this product again? Why or why not?

5b. If not, What would have to change for you to purchase it again?

How It Works!

How It Works!
The Positively Posh line of breathable fleece diaper covers are made out of fleece and cotton knits. The fleece by its nature repels moisture. Cotton by its nature absorbs. So you say, how can this combination work?!

Fleece, since it does not absorb liquids, cannot transfer moisture through its fibers to the cotton knit.   The only thing that can cause the waist band to become damp is if it is touching a saturated diaper.

The fleece soaker, and all Positively Posh diaper covers, are designed to have a rise longer than most diapers within the same size category. If you are having trouble with moisture wicking you can take several actions.

Trouble Shooting Tips!
1.  Sizing Up: You can size up your diaper cover so that there is enough distance in the rise between the diaper and the waist  band.

2. Lower Rise: You can use a diaper with a lower rise, which will increase the distance between the waist band and the diaper.

3. Frequent Changes:  You might also need to change the diaper more often to prevent full saturation of the diaper.

Things to Keep In Mind!
1. As with all breathable systems, the absorbency of the diaper is paramount! In my opinion and daytime soaker should last between 1-2 hours. If the soaker does not last as long as you would like, I would suggest adding absorbency to the diaper.

2. Fleece can be reused depending on the saturation of the cover. If your fleece cover is retaining odors quickly, then I would recommend changing more often, or adding absorbency to the diaper.

3. Fabric softener. There is a debate on whether or not fabric softeners should be used on fleece. I personally love fabric softener and the way it works with fleece. However, others are not. Fabric softener has been said to increase the repellent nature of fleece. My advice would be to use fabric softener at your own personal discretion.

Email is back in action!

Elemental Muse is amazing as a web host. :) Fast service, and wonderful CS. Great work Michelle! :)

Here are pics of the testers from last week before they were packaged. The paper contains the test questions. Please do them, it is hard to type with one hand at the keyboard and the other holding a teething wiggling child. Last time I tested quite a few people failed to respond. If you do not respond you will blocked from the store.

Ok off my soap box. Back to pictures.

Email Down Again!

My domain e-mail is down again. I will reply to all messages when it is up and running again. The web host has been alerted. :)

All in stock items and test soakers were shipped yesterday. I used multi-order shipping in Paypal and I am not sure if that sends out the notification email to you or not. I know they send the info to my email account, but I am not sure about the recipient.

She’s been requested so here she is!

Tester Soaker Update

Due to Gabrielle’s sickness Sunday night, being unable to return to Philadelphia until Monday afternoon, a teething baby and preparing for the stocking tomorrow, I am a day behind. My original intent was to have everything out Tuesday. However this was not possible. I am still working on getting everything together for the test packets including questions and directions.

Since I have to prepare for the stocking tomorrow everything will now ship Friday. To put it plainly I need to stock because there is no paid time off to catch up when running your own business.  Items from tomorrow’s stocking will ship within 4 business days.

Please be patient with me. Thank you.

Bridal Shower Adventure

We came down to Maryland to stay at my parent’s house so that we could go to my cousin’s bridal shower this Sunday which was down near Washington DC. Gabrielle got sick three times on the drive back to my parent’s home, all over my sister, the car seat, over all of her coat, clothing everything! She seems to be feeling much better, but I didn’t want to drive all the way back to Philadelphia last night with her alone in the back of the car possibly getting sick.

So we did not make it home to Philadelphia last night.  I was able to wash her diapers, car seat cover last night. Her coat and clothing is now in the washer.

I hope to be back in Philadelphia by early afternoon. I will get to everything as soon as I can.

Pink Tumbo Gown

I cannot find the Paypal information for the customer who purchased the pink Tumbo gown through PMs. Please email or PM me. I know I am just overlooking it. I apologize.
