Anybody here use or have used cloth diapers recently? I know the newer ones are much easier to use than the old fashioned ones, with the velcro and all. I'd like to start off with them. Any brands better than others in terms of fit and comfort?

as far as faves go, I preferred swaddlbees. They are very trim

lol When my puppy was housetraining she peed on the floor and I wiped it up with a towel and put it in the washer to clean and my mom told me to throw it out because she didn't want to run that through the washer..but yet my brother wets the bed and still has the same sheets! Wonder how those are getting clean? :wub: lolKaytee said:
OP here--
I'm also interested in saving $$! Truth is, even if I only use them for the first few months it's not so bad as far as dirty goes, since I breastfeed and it's not bad till the baby eats real food.

Kissaluvs!!! They are wonderful and not too pricey. I get mine from wildflowerdiapers.com. Don't forget boosters and a cover. If you buy prefold or flats, get something like the Snappies, the first time you stick tender baby skin with those pins you will hate yourself!
I have had a wonderful experience with cloth, obviously. And my son love them. PLus he never gets diaper rash when he is in them. FWIW, I use a dry diaper bucket in the bathroom with a lid, and I have never had an issue with smells.

I had a dry and a wet.
The wet I just filled with a bit of water and put it in the laundry room. I would flush the poop down the toilet and put the dipaer in there. For pee I just put them in the "dirty" diaper basket.
Then when it was time to wash just dumped it in the washer. I washed mine on cold once then hot once.

Vinegar would irritate baby bums if it didn't wash out all the way. I used a little it of baking soda at the bottom of the bucket. I rinsed the BMs in the toliet, and then everything got thrown in the bucket until the end of the day they got a cold cycle and a warm cycle.
I have used cloth diapers for almost a year now and love them I use a brand called Droopy Drawers I found them on e-bay they work really well for me I even have my baby in themreat and they are sold really cheap compared to other brands and work great! I am always up for suggestions on new brands though!

I actually started cloth diapering right after I made this post. I love it now. I have never heard of Droopy Drawers and I was told to stay away from ebay when it came to diapers so I never went there. I think my favorites have got to be my Haute pockets or just my prefolds with fleece or wool soakers.
Look at me I actually know what I am talking about now, lol.

I used cloth diaper with my first son. I was going to save the environment! Yikes! I really did want to succeed but it was just too difficult and my poor son was soaked, rashes and being a new mom I abandoned and went to pampers.
