Cloth Diapers

SuperDuperGirl23

Forgive my ignorance, please. I use disposables for our current LO but I've been thinking about using CDs for future babies. But, what do you use as wipes?

You may consider asking this on the Cloth Diaper forum too. 

I just use the store brand wipes, but I know others use damp washcloths or the cloth wipes you buy at the same places you buy the diapers.

I fill up a plastic tub with water, baby shampoo, and a little baby oil and soak washcloths in it. When I change a diaper I have a wet cloth ready to go, and I just toss it in the pail with the diaper.

I use cloth wipes from FuzziBunz. If you are going to CD, it makes a ton of sense to use cloth wipes - just throw them in the wet bag and wash them with the CDs! I have 40 wipes and I'll never have to buy a wipe again.

I just started this today.  I have been cding since LO was a month or so.  Before, we did the Viva paper towel roll cut in half with the core removed soaked in hot water, a dash of oil and soap in a zip lock bag.  We have over 1000 store wipes from my shower, but they are too harsh on his bum.  So we just keep those in the bathroom.

I use cloth wipes and use my peri bottle that I got after I had him filled with a solution of water, baby wash and a couple drops of tea tree oil and lavender oil. I make the solution in a big batch and refill the bottle as needed.

This.  Except I fill my peri bottle with plain tap water.  My wipes are old wash cloths and they work great.

I use cloth wipes I purchased on Etsy. I use my peri bottle from the hospital with a solution of water and a diaper wash made by California Baby. I have to admit I still use regular wipes with poo diapers, though!

I use disposable wipes that I throw into a small trash can next to the chaning table and diaper pail.  I might change to cloth wipes in the future...

DH was 100% on board with cloth diapers but put his foot down when it came to cloth wipes... so we use whatever is on sale- usually Pampers Sensitive or Huggies Natural.

WIth DS1 we used cloth wipes.  Then he started daycare at 20 months and they required disposable wipes.  Now we use the disposable for everything unless DS2 has a super poop.  Then I use a cloth wipe (or 5).

At home:  Fold a dozen washcloths, wet down in sink, store in wipes warmer.  DS gets his face and neck cleaned with a warm cloth every time we change a diaper.  He loves it. When dirty they go right in the step can I use as a diaper pail.

On the go: disposable wipes.  digging them out of the wet bag before I do laundry is nasty.  But I'm too lazy to carry a bottle of water with us to wet down a cloth wipe. And pre soaked ones in a ziplock get funky if I leave them in the bag too long.

I use baby washcloths with some plain old water from the peri bottle.  I got so many baby washcloths from my baby showers, so they work perfectly for us.

I use cloth wipes made of flannel. Easy peasy.
