Cloth Diaper users -- what to do on vacation?

nestinginjapan

Hi everyone ... happy friday!  I posted this on the Eco board too, but wanted to try here as well 

We use CD and a diaper service. In July we're going away for a week and I'm wondering what we should do about diapers. Our last resort is buying disposables when we get to our destination. Do they make a diaper that has disposable inserts that go inside a reusable cover? Or any other suggestions/recommendations?  Thanks!

We CD, but I'll be doing disposables in June when we travel. It kills me to have to buy diapers, but that is what makes the most sense for us.

You could try buying the g-diaper inserts and see if they would work with your covers.?

We use disposibles on vacation.

You can get more "natural" (not bleached, no gel) disposibles.  I've also heard of some that actually biodegrade (they're Swedish, the name escapes me.)

This! We have g-diapers and we like them. They have their quirks like any other diaper but they work. Good luck.

We're planning a trip to florida and we're thinking sposies on the way down but then cloth while we're there and then sposies on the way home. But we're staying with DH's grandmother so it makes it easier to use and wash the cloth.

We'll probably use disposables, but I've thought about using Flips or GroBaby - they both have disposable inserts that I am intrigued by.  I haven't heard good things about g diapers

It depends.

 

We traveled by car and train for two days. At the end of the trip, we were somewhere with laundry. So, we used cloth the entire time. Sposies in the car worried me because they are more prone to blow outs and such.

 

But, in july, we are taking a 3 day trip (by plane) to somewhere without laundry. So, we will use flips with disposable inserts.
