Your Cloth Diaper Stories Inspire Me!

March 18, 2011

You guys are amazing! Things have been crazy around my house this week… First, Sterling began potty training.  Unexpectedly, which left me feeling a little overwhelmed by his “bigness”.  Day one went as you might expect, a few successes and a few messes.  Day two was going awesome and then the stomach bug hit him. [...]

Are Disposable Diapers Really That Bad?

February 23, 2011

The other day a friend of mine made a comment that made my stomach turn. I LUUUUUUUV Pampers. I don’t care how much dioxin they have in ‘em. Bold statement.  Sarcasm? Maybe.  Defense of a system she knows is bad? Most likely. Disposable diapers not labled as “unbleached” or “bleached with peroxide” contain Dioxin.  Dioxin [...]

Cloth diapers are the best choice

August 12, 2010

But they certainly aren’t the only way to diaper your baby.  That’s sort of a no-brainer statement but I wasn’t always so graceful about it.  I once wrote a post about only using cloth diapers that now makes me cringe.  I used poor judgment and turned away readers I’m sure.  Not that what I said [...]

How I Became a Cloth Diaper Revert

July 14, 2010

Today’s guest post is written by my blogging and in real life friend,  Grateful for Grace.  She shares her take on going back to cloth diapers. I am a cloth diapering re-vert, not exactly a convert.  I’d used them before, but I came back around.  It had been ten years and three kids since I [...]

Funny Cloth Diaper Video

June 3, 2010

I recently discovered a $1000 contest where the entries are a 1-3 minute video telling the viewer “why choose cloth diapers?”  Too bad I discovered it the day after the contest ended (June 1, 2010).  The contest was held by bynature.ca. Char of Cloth Now sent me her entry via the All About Cloth Diapers [...]

Are One Size Cloth Diapers Worth It?

May 10, 2010

Is it really possible to buy a stash of one-sized cloth diapers and not buy another one throughout the life of the child?  Is there a cloth diaper that will withstand years of use with multiple children? Certainly the answer can be yes to both of these questions but there are limitations. When many families [...]

New to Cloth Diapers? Part 1

November 9, 2009

I remember how overwhelming it was when I first began cloth diapering. There were so many choices (and SO many more now!) and I had no idea where to start. The one thing I did know was disposable diapers are gross and I needed something else. I refused to compromise my child’s health any more [...]

The #1 Reason Disposable Diapers Suck

June 22, 2009

BLOWOUTS!! Yes, disposable diapers contain disgusting gel crystals. Yes, disposable diapers are horrible for the environment. Yes, disposable diapers are a waste of your hard-earned money. But, honestly blowouts are THE most annoying aspect of disposable diapers. We just returned from a week long vacation at the beach – hence the long break in blog [...]
