Getting Started: Tips for Success

Posted by Cloth Diaper Blog Guest on February 12, 2011

Your little one is on the way, and you've decided to go cloth. Or maybe your little one is already here, and you are ready to switch from disposables to cloth. Perhaps you are undecided, and just want someone to help you sort the whole thing out. Maybe your baby's bum has been riddled with diaper rashes and you just don't know what else to do. Either way, congratulations on your decision! I decided to use cloth diapers somewhere around conception. In fact, it never occurred to me to use … [Read more...]

First Impressions of Cloth Diapers

Posted by Becca on December 27, 2010

I’ve been using cloth diapers for over a year now and as I look at the cloth diapers that my daughter wears now as opposed to those she started with, I’m amazed at how differently I look at cloth diapering these days. Specifically, I’m amazed at how some brands that were previously my favorites sit gathering dust unless I’m too lazy to do a wash and those brands that I didn’t like at first, are my favorites. My most trustworthy cloth diapers are those I didn’t like at … [Read more...]

bumGenius! Suedecloth vs FuzziBunz Fleece

Posted by Cloth Diaper Blog Guest on June 17, 2010

It is great that in the modern age of cloth diapering we parents have so many options. You can cloth diaper your baby in prefolds, fitteds, all-in-ones, or pocket diapers. Closures can be Aplix or snaps. Materials can be organic or synthetic. There are endless combinations, and you can have all of them if you'd like! When my daughter outgrew the Kissaluvs Fitted Diapers she used as a newborn (and believe me, they are great newborn diapers!), we decided to go with pocket diapers. There were … [Read more...]

Cloth Diapering Not for Wimps?

Posted by Cloth Diaper Blog Guest on May 6, 2010

I’ve come to the conclusion that cloth diapering is not for wimps. BUT, it’s also not as difficult as it may seem, at first. When I first started cloth diapering, it was with my first child. I was a nervous mother and I thought everything needed to be perfect. I went through "hell and back" to breastfeed, I read all the books…you know the drill. I’m also someone who does have a genuine concern for the Earth that God has given us, so the thought of trashing all those … [Read more...]

Prefolds are not that scary!

Posted by Becca on April 15, 2010

When I was pregnant, my husband and I discussed cloth diapering as a money saving option. At the time we thought the only cloth diapers available were the prefold diapers and rubber pants found at the VERY BOTTOM shelf of the baby section in the local Wal-mart and Target; because we were desperate to save money, we were willing to consider it. When my daughter was born, and I started using the bumGenius! One Size Pocket Diapers, the idea of diapering with prefolds went out the window as I … [Read more...]

Share the Love: Buying Used Cloth Diapers

Posted by Cloth Diaper Blog Guest on January 18, 2010

I am a bargain shopper. I learned it from my mom, who learned it from my grandma, and it's just what we do in my family. There's nothing better than finding a great deal on something you really like. One of the best ways to find those killer deals is to find things used – or "Gently Loved" as I prefer to call them. Thrift shops, consignment stores, Craigslist; you name it, I've bought from it. But when I started my cloth diaper journey earlier this year, it caught me a little off guard … [Read more...]
