When I was pregnant with Ava I didn't give it a second thought, really. There was no way it was going to happen. After I had Nathan, the thought crossed my mind again. Not only would I save money, but it would also be fabulous for the environment. How could I NOT cloth diaper?
I looked into the different options. There are so many. I decided on the prefold and cover style- for the time being. It's the least expensive way and I needed that mostly due to a newborn that poos everytime he eats (which was often!).
After working with the prefolds for about a week or two, I decided I was going to stick with cloth diapering. I bought a few Goodmama fitted diapers from a girlfriend and they work awesome. I still need to put a cover on them when I need them to be waterproof, but they are great.
Then, I bought a Flip Diaper. I LOVE these diapers. It is a hybrid system, so there is an insert that you put in the diaper and then snap it on. So simple, and they hold a lot of pee! I even use a prefold in them and it works just as well. These are by far my favorite diapers (so far). The only thing I don't really like is the fact that Nathan's poo gets on the cover almost everytime. It's not really that big of a deal, though, because as long as you have a few covers you just switch it out.
Find the Flip diapering system at Cottonbabies.com
I have a few different diapers that I want to try next, but I am trying to take it easy. It is SO easy to get addicted to "fluff" and I definitely do not make enough money for this habit!
I love cloth diapering because it's easy. EASY! Who would've thought?
Head on over to Mom's Milk Boutique to search for cloth diapers.
