I personally buy cloth diapers all the time, but not because I have to. I truly enjoy getting new prints or trying new styles or materials or brands, I could have stopped buying cloth diapers years ago. With the exception of buying a few extra with each new baby so that I have enough to…
When I first started cloth diapering back in October 2018, I bought a 6-pack of Alva baby pocket diapers off Amazon, and realized I wasn’t a big fan of their microfiber inserts. So, I did some research and decided to buy 1 dozen Cloth-eez “Novice” size prefolds, and that was one of the best decisions…
If you’re going out for 30 minutes to an hour, you really don’t have to put a ton of thought into which cloth diaper to take. But as the length of your trip grows, the more thought that needs to go into the decision making. Short trip/errand: 1 cloth diaper & 1 cloth wipe of…
Both cloth diapers and disposable diapers have their good points and bad points, and for me cloth diapers have always had more good points than bad. In my opinion yes, cloth diapers are better than disposable diapers in regards to most things such as the environment, money and peace of mind from knowing you will…
Typically, I see a 50/50 split between people who are cloth diapering to save money, and those who are cloth diapering to save the planet. But that brings up the question ” Are cloth diapers really the better choice?” Cloth diapers greatly reduce the amount of waste that comes with having a baby and they…
Leaking is one of the biggest problems people have with the idea of cloth diapering, if not the biggest. And truth be told, I have had problems with my cloth diapers leaking, but all that ever really needed done was a little research and we were good to go. No diaper is “leak-proof” whether you…
Many people consider wetbags a must-have when it comes to cloth diapering, but is that really what they are? I personally feel that wetbags are a convenience item rather than a must have, you could always store your dirty cloth diapers in a plastic bag or a basket instead of a wetbag. While you don’t…
There are two parts to this question, you see a fabric (to me anyway) is made up of 2 things, the weave (Birdseye, Muslin, Twill) and the fiber (Cotton, Bamboo, Hemp, Microfiber). You also have to take into consideration anything special that might be done to a fabric once it is woven like with fleece,…
One of the reasons I loved the idea of cloth diapering so much was because I wouldn’t have to keep track of what size disposable diapers my baby needed. Now with 3 kids in diapers, and all a different size, I can’t tell you how much easier it is to just buy some adjustable cloth…
Everyone wants their baby to comfortable, so it makes sense that some people would be really uncomfortable with the idea that their baby felt wet all the time. There are some cloth diapers that do feel wet after baby pees in them, prefolds, flats and most fitteds, just by themselves, because they are natural fibers…
