Kermit was totally wrong…

It is easy being green! My path to being green started with my research of cloth diapers.  Before my son was even born, I was loving getting the cute "fluffy mail", building my stash, and convincing my husband about cloth diapers. We used disposables and cloth in the very beginning while I recovered from my c-section.  I loved the softness of the cloth diapers, the feeling of saving money, and disliked the extra, stinky garbage, the crinkly paper feel of the disposables, and those little … [Read more...]

Have you ever noticed cloth diapers on a stranger’s child?

Once a week, our library has something called, “Books for Babies” where the children’s librarian reads our preschoolers books, sings nursery rhymes with them, and leads them in awesome toddler activities involving bells, drums, and/or little scarves. The first time we went, Bunny simply adored it, so I knew that this was something that needed to become part of our weekly routine. My contact with other parents of preschoolers is minimal. Since I work part time, I don’t have much time to … [Read more...]

Cloth Diaper Appropriate Clothing, What do you need to know?

Clothing and Cloth 4

In my opinion, there’s nothing cuter than a baby’s cloth-diapered bottom, or what cloth-diapering parents like to call a “fluffy bum.” Yes, it’s bigger than the bottoms of disposable-diapered babies, but we like it that way.

And besides, it’s great when they’re first learning to stand and walk because it offers some cushion for the many spills and falls that are bound to happen daily. Unfortunately, dressing a … [Read more...]

Becca’s Potty Training Necessities! What are yours?

pt1

Have you gotten to this crossroads where diapers meet underwear and you’re not sure what to do? I have to confess that this is the one thing about parenting that has terrified me since I was a little kid. How on earth do you teach a child how to use the potty? I mean, I helped my parents with all my siblings (4 of 6, that is) and I was an old pro at the mother thing when my daughter … [Read more...]

These ARE your grandma’s cloth diapers!

anna2

Perhaps the most common expression I’ve heard since beginning my cloth diaper journey over a year ago is, “They’re not your grandma’s diapers!”  This statement is so true! Cloth diapers have come a long way from the gauze flats and cotton prefolds my mother and grandmother used. I often found myself wondering why on earth would anyone choose to use flats or prefolds other than out of necessity? With the modern cloth diapers available today, I could not figure out why people wanted to … [Read more...]
