Cloth Diapering

When you go on vacation

We will be going on vacation at the end of September and will be staying in a hotel so using cloth would be interesting so we're going to use biodegradable disposables that we can get at our grocery store. 

I don't know what size to get though because according to sizes our LO should of just outgrown size 1 diapers here but my friend who has a LO a few days older than mine and about the same size said they are already using size 3's!!

How do you know what size to get if you use disposables for vacations?

Re: When you go on vacation

  • The couple of times that we had to use sposies, we just used the weight chart on the package to determine which size to get.

     

    ETA: FWIW, we stayed in a hotel while on vacation and used cloth.   We used their laundry facilities and it was fine.

  • We just go buy the weight on the package.  DD has been in size 4 disposables for over a year!!  If you are in doubt between two sizes, go up a size for more absorbancy.

    You could also use gDiaper or Flip or Grovia disposable inserts with PUL covers and hand wash the covers in the sink.  They should drip dry overnight no problem.

    This is what I do, although I buy a small package (based on weight) of disposables for overnight and the car ride.  And I like the Flip inserts much better than the gDiaper.  They are more absorbant.

  • Thanks ladies, I'll go according to weight :) I'll look into the grovias but I'm not sure where I can get them, I normally get my diapers from the UK...

  • You might call ahead and see if they have a coin-operated laundry facility that you can use. We've done that and had no issues.
