*CONTEST CLOSED—WINNER CHOSEN**
How many times have you wished you had a pocket on the outside of your wet bag? For me it’s every time I go somewhere.  I hate having to take 2 bags: one for a clean cloth diaper and a ziploc with wipes and my Leslie’s Boutique wet bag.

My Experience with Flip Disposable Inserts

by Autumn Beck on December 20, 2009

I don’t recommend disposable diapers or inserts be used on a regular or even occassional basis. If they are used it should be for those rare times when using cloth diapers would be unfeasible.
Having said that, in November on our final camping trip of the year I decided to try out the disposable inserts for [...]

Does Rockin Green Cloth Diaper Detergent Work?

by Autumn Beck on November 22, 2009

This past summer I introduced you to Rockin Green Cloth Diaper Detergent.  Kim kindly sent me some samples and I eagerly used them all up.  I was pleased: clothes smelled clean, cloth diapers smelled clean, no rashes occurred… two thumbs up.
However, after the samples were gone I went back to using my Kirkland’s Environmentally Friendly.  [...]

Don’t Forget The Smores… or the Cloth Diapers!

by Autumn Beck on October 9, 2009

We just got back from our family camping trip to Garner State Park (TX), our first camping trip in our new camper.  Despite the many “speed bumps” (forgetting many necessary items, dog being sprayed by skunk, weenies rolling off into fire, evil gnats, winds that rocked camper, sleepless nights, rain) we all keep asking…
Can I [...]

The Diaper Sprayer is on My Never List

by Autumn Beck on October 5, 2009

First, I’ll start off by saying that I am extremely easy to convince of something if your argument is good.   That being said feel free to redeem the Diaper Sprayer after I’m done
Why after 4 years of cloth diapering have I never purchased a diaper sprayer?

Installation always looked too cumbersome.

Do you have a heart for charity?

by Autumn Beck on October 2, 2009

My heart overflows with a desire to give.  I haven’t always been able to give financially, but even during tough times I give in other ways.
Recently, I donated all sales of the Ultimate Guide to Cloth Diapers to Not For Crybabies.  Not For Crybabies was started by my friend Jessica and her husband Dave.  They [...]
