Even before we got pregnant for the first time, J and I always knew we wanted to cloth diaper our kiddos. The main reason being that we did not want all the harmful chemicals on our baby's toosh. Have you ever looked at all the chemicals that are in disposable diapers!?!?! Type it in your search engine and just see what comes up. It will shock you. The second reason is that we didn't want to be even partly responsible for all the landfill masses of disposable diapers.
The third reason, was cost!!!! I remember being pregnant with Sutton and going shopping with a friend who had 2 children in diapers. She bought this GIANT box of diapers for almost $60.00, and she told me that would last about 2-3 weeks. I was floored!!!! Of course her children were in different sizes so that box was only for 1 of her children. I thought to myself, even if J and I didn't want to do cloth, we would have to, because there is no way we could afford to buy diapers. NO WAY!!!
Through Sutton's first year of life I have learned landfill size amounts of information on cloth diapers. Who knew this was like it's own science.? Throughout this blog I will be doing some videos on cloth diapers. Lots of reviews, how to wash, walk you through my stash. I hope to provide some great content and advice that I wish I would have had along the way. I am waiting on some "fluff mail" right now, so I must go make sure the UPS man hasn't passed me up!!! Happy Diapering!!!
