...in that I'm curious about the frequent fliers! I'm here poking around every day and I've started catching onto who uses wool, who is the washing issue pro, stuff like that. I'm simply just interested in getting to know the community a bit more It's so interesting and great to see how you help so many people without getting offended by newbies. Lots of boards aren't like that, it's welcoming here and that's refreshing.
How long have you been using cloth? How long have you been here on the board?
I used cloth with my first daughter from a week old until she potty trained, now with my second daughter from birth. I've been around the board since mid 2011 while I was still pregnant, made this SN in early 2012.
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste,
It all revolves around you.
I am a FTM who started cloth full time last week on my 2.5 month old after multiple purchases from the swap thread! I've been a lurker since 2013 but only started posting about a month ago on this board and the BF board. This board is what made me come out of lurkerdom
ETA: I started LO on occasional cloth at 3 days with tiny gpants then a newborn trial at 1 week. I thought I would only like hybrid diapers but I actually dislike them and prefer FTs LOL.
I guess I should share about myself too! I'm also a FTM and started cloth at 1 week old. My little guy is now 7.5 weeks! This board has been a huge support as I don't really know anyone who uses cloth diapers so everything I've figured out so far is thanks to this little corner of the Internet. I've mostly learned to buy all of the diapers.
I started lurking around late 2011 and then started CD mid-2012, when DS was around 2-3 weeks old. We started with an NB diaper trial and built our stash from there. I probably started posting more once we started to actually use the diapers.
I started CDing when DS left the hospital in July 2013. I found this board soon after. I don't post often, but I really enjoy all the ladies here. They are great.
I lurked and asked a few questions while I was pg with ds2 and started posting more and joining in on threads more after ds2 was born and we started using cd in March 2013. It's the fault of this board that I got hooked on using cloth diapers.....if this board didn't exist, ds2's butt would be covered in paper....and dh would be struggling to change diapers.

I started on the Knot back in 2009, then The Bump in 2011 before my first daughter was born mid-2012.
We started CDing when she was 6 weeks old, but I hadn't found this board until early this year when we were preparing for daughter #2 and I wanted to start her in CDs from birth (which we did the day she came home from the hospital in May).
I wish I would have come around earlier, though, because this board is so helpful and there is so much good info!
I lurked while TTC & KU with DS2 in late 2011/early 2012. We started cloth when DS was 6 weeks old and are still at it at 26.5 months. We use CDs at DC.
I've been lurking for months and recently started occasionally commenting. I'm due in Feb so I'm mainly sucking up all the knowledge and information I can while I'm building my stash.
Been lurking/sometimes posting on this board since around April/May this year. 1st baby due at the end of the month and planning on cloth diapering from birth.
I'm an occasional poster... I'd probably post more but I'm so new to cloth that I usually don't have much to add! I started cloth in July when my second child was about a week old and have been posting here and there for a few months now.
I've never intro'd on this board, but have been lurking for a couple months and have had a few questions answered here. I generally don't do intros, but you can consider this mine for this board.
We've been in cloth since my son was 2 weeks old (he was born in June of this year). I use AIOs and AI2s during the day, but pockets for overnight. Recently picked up a couple fitteds and a wool cover so am going to try those out soon. I love this board because I can chat about my favorite topic without annoying my husband or friends. Two of my closest girlfriends had boys right around the same time as me and are cloth diapering as well but they don't really get excited taking about it and I don't think they buy new diapers weekly like I do.
@skittler2 my DH is glad I found this board too! I recently got my fitteds and wool for nighttime and I'm never looking back
