ME: "We are going to try and use cloth diapers."
EVERYONE: "That's gross...I tried to do it but the pins and prefolds and plastic diaper covers....well good luck."
TRUST ME....Cloth diapering isn't what it used to be! We don't have too many of our friends and family that are supportive but anyone we have talked to that has tried NEW cloth diapers and disposable, prefer cloth.
So here are some of the main reason we are going to use cloth diapers:
1. Our baby's health - a disposable diaper contains many harmful chemicals that sit next to your baby's most private parts. Having this information is hard for me to ignore and cloth diaper seems best for our baby. Baby's that wear cloth diapers have less diaper rash.
2. Environmental - It takes over 500 years for just 1 diaper to decompose...not only do we recycle everything we can, I can't imagine throwing that many diapers away every day, week and year....
3. Money - Need I say more...
4. I am saying that cloth diapering is for everyone but we want to give it our best shot and please, be curious and not negative. I will gladly share with you our knowledge and experiences so far:)

I'm so glad you decided to cloth! I got alot of negative comments at first too, but it helps to find local moms who cd also. It made a huge difference once I found the lady's on the cd board!
You know I'm always here when you need some advice or support! Are you going to put up a clothes line in your backyard? I wish we had one!
