Cloth Diapering

I SO want to be on the CD train

I really really want to be on board with CDing right now but my issue is the upfront expense. We have the money but DH is our main source of income right now and he is so skeptical of CDs even after showing him the cost savings we would make. Where can I buy good quality cheap CDs either used or new? I'm also looking to stay with fitteds cuz of all the types we tried those worked best for our lifestyle. I should also add that I suck at sewing or else I'd try making my own. I can't even sew on a button without it immediately falling off LOL. Does eBay tend to have some of the better deals?

I want to CD sooo bad!!!

  • If you're looking to only use fitteds, check out the Imagine brand at Nicki's Diapers. Very inexpensive!

  • I notice your LO is still quite young.  Fitteds are honestly going to be the most expensive option.  I'll bet one-size pockets and covers will fit very soon, and that will be a good investment to get you through toddlerhood.  Covers and prefolds are probably your cheapest option, and many people love that route (including me!).
  • If cost is an issue, ditto Alvas. They're pockets, but honestly... fitteds aren't really a necessity and they're often the most costly diaper type.

    I'd get 8 of those and 1-2 of whatever fitted you like. Then wash every night and buy a new diaper for every week or two you don't have to buy sposies until you have the stash you want.

  • The cloth diaper stores in my town have trial rental offers for a week or two to try things out!

    Eta: oops, sorry. Reread and see that you have already tried them.
