All About Cloth Diapers

guest post by Jessica Carver When we became pregnant with our third daughter one of the first things we did was start shopping for what brand of cloth diaper to use. We already were in the world of cloth with my two year old who was wearing gDiapers but with baby number three we wanted [...]

Booty Buns isn’t just another same-ole, same-ole pocket cloth diaper. Shannon Carillo actually did what all of us have considered since we began cloth diapering. She heard others say great things about certain diapers then they would say, “If only it had xyz. Then it’d be the perfect diaper.” [that is my made up dialogue] [...]

Autumn, I am just starting to research cloth diapering, and this post has been a HUGE help! Your website is great!! I’ve been trying to convince my husband why we should do it before our daughter was born, and now that our disposables are running out from the shower, I think it’s time to try [...]

2011 was a year filled (and I mean filled!) with blessings.  It’s almost too much to fully take in. We began the year on a high note.  At 3:03 am on January 3rd Camden Elijah was born.  Our 3rd son. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CAMDEN!! Camden’s birth was what I prayed for- a normal homebirth.  I had [...]

Pocket cloth diapers are a highly versatile system.  A pocket cloth diaper contains a pocket whereby you “stuff” the amount of desired absorbency into the opening.  You may choose to use 1 insert creating a very trim cloth diaper option.  By adding 2 inserts you are adding a bit more bulk (still fairly trim) and [...]

Pocket cloth diapers are an extremely versatile system.  You can pretty much make any pocket, inexpensive or pricey, nighttime worthy.  It all comes down to the inserts you choose. My slam dunk nighttime insert combo is 2 microfiber inserts (either 2 single inserts or a 6r soaker) with 2 Hemp Babies underneath. I’ve used this [...]

Ecobubs Wool-Blend Diapers from New Zealand are now available here in the US! Camden has one on right now (Monday evening) double stuffed.  I will sleep soundly tonight with no worries about leaks. Ecobubs inserts are 4 layers of microfiber x 2 = 8 thirsty layers. I LOVE stripes.  Stripes make me giddy. Not only [...]

**Congratulations, Beth C.! You were chosen as the winner!** Cloth diaper makers are stepping it up and I like it! Our only choices for cloth diaper prints are no longer just flowers, stripes and polka dots (although I love stripes and once collected almost all the Goodmama striped fitteds!). Today cloth diaper prints are being [...]

I love prints. But, I’m picky. Aren’t we all? I could list a million things I don’t like but it’s hard to put my finger on what I do like. This probably explains why I don’t own many prints.  I think I have 5. That’s nothing when you look at all that I own. Charlene, [...]

**CONTEST CLOSED!** Congratulations, Amanda Cramer!Fuzzi Bunz and Charlie Banana cloth diapers are very similar.  But, their differences will leave you grabbing for one more than the other. One of my readers (I love you guys!) informed me that Charlie Banana was created by a former employee of Fuzzi Bunz, hence the similarities. Update: I received [...]
