i have some friends that have been using cloth diapers and originally i had dismissed the idea thinking it wasn't for me. then i read the shocking statistic that 50 million diapers enter landfills everyday and take 500 years to decompose. on top of that, i thought about how disposable diapers are a relatively new invention. sometimes i can get lost in the current ways of the world and think it just isn't possible to do things any other way than the easiest. obviously, that's not a healthy way to think. so cloth diaper moms out there...i need to hear what brand you use, any other helpful tips, and general words of encouragement. i think i have tim on board.
Hi Lara! I used cloth diapers with all of our little ones...who all three were in diapers for a 7 month period!!! I loved them and plan to use them again if God sees fit to send any more blessings our way :)I used the bum genius all in 1 diaper which grew with our babies...also we purchased the toilet attachment for rinsing the dirty diapers...that was a MUST for me :)Hope you find exactly what your looking for...I know there are several options! Blessings to your family!

Kind of a meet in the middle product. I'll let you know if I like them.
I'm glad that my input regarding the bum genius diapers was helpful! They worked wonderful for us through multiple children! There are so many options I am confidant you will find exactly what works best for your little guy!!! Like minded mothers are hard to come by... I'm excited to have reconnected with u too Lara! Hope your day is filled with joy:)
ReplyDeleteYou know...We have a store up here in OKC completely devoted to cloth diapering called The Green Bambino...While I don't cloth diaper, I have checked it out with my sister-in-law because she is going to. I would be happy to take you but y'all have to come up and see us.:)
ReplyDeleteIn my brief sojourn in the CD world I've discovered: people swear by all different things. So far Jake has done great with the tried and true prefold+cover and has leaked out of every single BumGenius pocket diaper we've put him in. So I would do my best to build a stash slowly, trying different kinds until you find what works for your little guy. Until then there's always Kerrville Texas' own Autumn Beck of allaboutclothdiapers.com. Hope all is well at Casa Bobo!
ReplyDeleteI've been looking at the Flip diaper system...I have a friend that uses it and it's SO EASY! Especially because you can do disposable inserts (which seem like they miss the point, but they are thin like toilet paper, biodegradable and flushable). They make cleaning up the poopy part much easier!!!
