What’s cding? Cloth Diapering! We have been in cloth for several weeks now and I thought I would voice my opinions!

Overall verdict? We love it! 

We use three types of diapers on Bennett. Here are my thoughts on what we use.

Bumgenius All-in-ones:

• These are easy to put on and take off.
• Just take them off and throw it in the wetbag (or diaper pail).
• No stuffing, unstuffing. Just grab and go.
• Slightly larger than the other two brands we use.
• Great absorbency

Grovia All-in-two

• These fit Bennett SOOOOO well.
• I love the velcro version of these
• The grovia all in one that we have is super trim and love that the snaps are covered on the front
• Love the hip snaps
• Love that you can use the cover several times so you can pack less if you’re out and about.
• Contains poop really well!
• Super soft 🙂
• Just unsnap and throw in the wet bag

Kawaii Pure and Natural

http://www.theluvyourbaby.com/pure-natural-0-15-months/

• The smallest/most trim cloth diaper that we have.
• Love that we can change the absorbency
• We use one microfiber insert and one organic cotton/hemp insert
• Pull out the inserts and put the inserts and cover into the wetbag
• Downfall: You have to unstuff and restuff these diapers
• Upside: They dry the quickest out of all of our diapers

What we love about cloth diapering so far:

1. I love that I’m saving money. If he pee’s in a diaper right after I put it on, I don’t feel like it’s money wasted.
2. We have never had poop leak in a cloth diaper unlike the blowouts we had in disposables
3. Never having to run out for a box of diapers because we ran out of disposables
4. They are cute.
5. I hate the feeling of a full, squishy, warm disposable pee diaper. With cloth, you don’t have that feeling 🙂

Things I don’t like:

1. Stuffing the pocket diapers after they dry.
2. Onsies can wick pee out of the diaper if the onsie gets into the babies leg creases. We have fixed this issue by only snapping the middle snap on the onsie or leaving it unsnapped all together. We also ordered these to add extra length so it’s not so tight in the crotch area and won’t get stuck in his leg creases 🙂

The two most helpful things that I have learned:

1. https://www.facebook.com/groups/FluffLoveCDScience/

The Fluff and Cloth Diaper science facebook page has been so helpful with making sure I have a good wash routine and answering a million of my questions.

How to properly fit your cloth diapers. There are a ton of snaps on an all in one, so finding out how to properly put it on was the most helpful things to prevent leaks for us.

We still use disposables at night since Bennett is sleeping close to 8 hours for his first stretch of sleep. I know there are a million ways we could cloth diaper at night but it’s not worth the hassle of fighting leaks and figuring out what works and doesn’t work. Other than that, cloth is our first choice! Let me know if you have any questions about what has worked for us and what hasn’t!

Happy diapering. 🙂
