Guest post by Michelle. An idea was subtly suggested to me by someone a few months ago; to consider stopping the use of cloth diapers because of the time I invest in their cleaning and such. This suggestion was presented not in a negative way but in a sympathetic way, trying to help me find [...]

Simple Effective Ways To Disinfect Cloth Diapers
February 23, 2012
The other night on Twitter a blog feed popped up that looked to be fabulous. Once I began to read I knew this information had to be shared with you. The blog post came from Mona of Eco Nuts. Mona makes most of us look like slackers (just take a look at her bio)! I [...]
Cleaning Your Diapers the HARD Way!?
July 11, 2010
What type of water I have was something that I never bothered to think about until I started cloth diapering. It turns out I have hard water and it really makes a difference in how I clean my diapers. I never noticed it before because I’ve always used Tide and Gain to clean my clothes. [...]
Ammonia cloth diapers burning your baby?
June 21, 2010
We all chose to cloth diaper because it was better for our children. But, what do you do when the cloth diapers are hurting your baby? I am so sad to say that I am in this boat. Sterling’s nighttime diapers leave him screaming in the morning. Not good. I soaked every insert and fitted [...]
Washing Cloth Diapers in a Front Loader
May 17, 2010
I anticipated much struggle. I’ve read the bazillions of stories of moms saying they wish they had a top loader just for their cloth diapers. I went back and forth over whether to buy a TL or FL when my old-trusty died. In the end, a FL made more sense (and they looked prettier ). [...]

Come on! Who wouldn’t want to spice up their laundry routine?! I wasn’t exactly looking for a change to my routine but while I was shopping on one of my favorite sites, Alice.com, I stumbled upon the True Green Laundry Washing Ball I know what you’re thinking. Didn’t she try out a Laundry Ball about [...]
Cloth Diapers Clean as a Whistle
January 23, 2010
While I was on vacation this past week I saw a video posted on Facebook that I couldn’t wait to get home and share with you! I don’t endorse any one detergent as “the” cloth diaper detergent. However, Kim of Rockin Green Soap is doing a fantastic job of proving the efficacy of her formula. [...]
How The Laundry Ball Changed The Way I Wash Cloth Diapers
July 16, 2008
In the middle of June I wrote a post about removing buildup from your cloth diapers. In that post one of my suggestions was for the Laundry Ball. At the time of writing I didn’t have a need for any of the items. But after spending a weekend camping with no laundry facilities, I came [...]
