Started collecting my stash of cloth diapers today! Anyone else plan on using cloth diapers?

Question

Answer

Katelyn, we chose to give cloth diapers a chance since I will be staying home with our son. Cloth diapers are extremely sanitary and have been used for thousands of years. The savings over 18 months is about $2,500-$4,000 for using only cloth. There are so many chemicals and carcinogenic substances in disposable diapers. If you do a little research you will see. It's a choice really, and we've chosen to try.

Answer

Cool collection. Would try cloth diapers if we had a washing machine in the house. Maybe with baby#2 in the future

Answer

This will be kiddo #3 in cloth, but first time I'll have two, at the same time, to wash for. I'll be scoping out local shops and CoOps for girly prints now though.

Answer

I plan on it! I started when my second was 8 months old. This time I plan on it from the start... Possible at the hospital... We will see. I used Alva baby one size pockets with my son... This time I am going to order prefolds from green mountain diapers and some covers... And some workhorses for my hubby to but on bc he's a little worried he won't be able to change a prefold. Lol I am super excited! I want to order a couple wool covers but they are sooo expensive... Not quite sure about that yet... Just thought they would be nice and breathable for night time and warm... Since this one will be born late December, early January....

Answer

I plan on doing half and half.  Hopefully my baby won't be allergic to diapers like me and my 3 siblings. When we were babies we would get horrible rashes that my mother had to cloth diaper us. Granted, lots of improvements a long the way but I like the idea of saving money and letting the baby's skin breathe. I do plan on using regular diapers for going out, but in the house and with our harsh winters, I am hoping the cloth diapers would be soothing to harsh winter dry skin.

Answer

Me! I'm so excited! I grew up cloth diapering my siblings the old fashioned way so I'm used to it. I can't wait to use the new types like pockets and all in ones!

Answer

So cute!! Where did you get them? and how much? If you don't mind me asking

Answer

This is our 2nd and I'm ready for cloth again!

Answer

Can I ask your reasoning for wanting to use cloth diapers? I have always planned on using disposable just because I will be working full time as well as hubby and we just don't feel we have the time for maintenance. I feel like the cloth ones would be a bit unsanitary though? Maybe I'm totally wrong. I see a girl on social media that complains about her disposable being stinky after a while and she said she stripping them this week so she's using disposables for the time being. I guess I'm just curious as to why people choose one or the other!

Answer

Anyone cloth diaper at the hospital? Been trying to decide if I want to start right from the beginning or once we get home... Any suggestions?
