diaper rash and cloth diapers
Turns out it wasn't yeast?!? The cultures all came back negative (which is a good thing but I wish we knew what was causing the issues). Needless to say, the anti-fungal we've been using didn't do squat. We resigned to disposables …

Help, Rash problems and cd frustration.
I wish I had a clear and easy solution for you but we have been struggling with similar issues. I'm also frustrated and feel like I don't know what to do next... No suggestions, only sympathy.

Liners??
Old t-shirts cut into strips make great liners... just don't flush them. I also like Bummis Bio-soft flushable liners. We use these for daycare.

It is back... The yeast blisters showed their ugly faces again earlier this week. My daughter is just getting over the flu which was followed two weeks later by a nasty cold. This means she's had soft/runny poo for almost three weeks and we c…

Diaper bags for cloth diapers
I ordered my wet bags (one med one lg) from Monkey Foot Designs and have been really happy with them. Easily holds a day's worth of dirty diapers for two kids. http://www.monkeyfootdesigns.com/ For a day of daycare, I send a full sized duffel…

LO constantly crying in Cloth?
Have you tried a stay-dry or fleece liner? It won't help with the bulk but it may just be that your son does not like to feel wet. http://www.bummis.com/ca/en/fleece-liners.php

Help! My diapers are trying to mildew!!
How long did it take your diapers to dry outside? I know mine are often not 100% dry after 5 hours of being outside if it is really humid. Also, I've found I have to hang them and not lay them flat. Hope this helps.

Anyone else having trouble with Pockets at night?
Is there a "magic" order to put in doublers based on material?

SOLD 8 BumGenius AIO size large + 4.0 and inserts
I'm looking for a nighttime option for my 1 1/2 year old . She has suddenly become a heavy wetter. Would the large AIOs be a good option? We have used Elementals up to this point and still love them for daytime. Do the AIOs have a similar f…

What is your favorite AIO for nighttime use?
I used Elementals for the the first 18 months with my DD. However, she has started peeing like a horse at night and during/at the end of naps. Beccab, you could use Elementals with doublers for a while. We have LOVED the Elementals to this point.

I think we finally beat the yeast! I've been using coconut oil on my DD after every dirty diaper. I will also continue using the GFSE when washing diapers until it is gone, just to be safe.

Tell me about the Organic Flip inserts.
I thought the Flip organics were going to be our diaper of choice before my daughter was born but now they are the diaper I go to last. The organic inserts absorb a lot of urine but any stool that is not solid gets everywhere! We were never able t…

diaper rash and cloth diapers
We ended up getting a once a day prescription cream that we use at night with a disposable. We use coconut oil with cloth during the day. It appears to be working! Hopefully this is our last round of yeast. I've washed all our diapers, inser…

We've been struggling with rash issues too. I use creams and it goes away for a few weeks and then it comes back. It always seems to re-appear first thing in the morning when my daughter had a FULL wet diaper. I thought is was ammonia issues…

Please introduce yourself!
I am the mother of a beautiful 1 and a half year old baby girl. Hopefully we will be a family of 4 within the next year. I work 4 days a week. We have an amazing woman who does daycare for our little one that is willing to use cloth diapers!
