Cloth Diapering

Is it okay to buy used Cloth Diapers?

Is it safe (for sanitary reasons) to buy used CDs?  If so, is there a specific way to wash the used CDs to assure your child will not be passed anything from previous lil tooshies?  I'm a first time momma-to-be and learning the ropes. Any help would be greatly appreciated!  Found out that a few in mdh's family have sensitive skin and required CDs when they were babies so I'm going this route as a "just in case" and the bonus... to save what money I can for baby! Thanks ladies :)

  • Most of my stash is used.  My LO has not arrived yet (May 16th), but I will be washing once and for any that have some staining on it (not many and the staining is slight) I will be sunning, as I plan to hang dry during the weather permitting months.

  • From what I know...nothing is truly recommended newborn to potty training....very few if any OS dipes fit at birth.. most people need a separate newborn stash. I would recommend either flats or prefolds with covers or something like Kawaii Pure and Natura
