Cloth diapers are the best!! Who wants to run to the store and empty endless garbage pails. I’m already doing tons of laundry for the baby anyway, I don’t even notice a few extra loads for the diapers. And they are so cheap!

Great post Ali! Let’s get the word out!!

Amen! I first started cloth diapering when my son (now 3 and potty learned) was an infant. At first the people around me were skeptical, but, they soon became converts when they saw how easy and well, more importantly, responsible it is to cloth diaper. I can only hope that more people in our immediate future jump on this bandwagon. It is our responsibility to the children that we are diapering, and to their green futures.

Thanks for reading James. Fuzzi Bunz are still widely popular and I even own a few.

Also, let’s not forget the gas it costs to drive to the store for disposables, time wasted and the inevitable ‘other’ purchases you make when going to the store for diapers.

I hear moms talk about the time to wash diapers, but I can start my washer faster than I can get the kids dressed and bucked into the car.

Yes to cloth diapers! We used them on all our kids (our son is still in diapers at night, though he’s trying not to be so we use them still). The new generation of diapers is easy, cheaper, and so much better for the environment. We bought Fuzzi-buns (not sure if they are still called that) for our first born and they’ve held up for 3 children. Thanks for writing about this Alison.
