QOTD: What are your thoughts on diapers? Cloth or disposables or undecided?
Me: We use cloth with DS and will use cloth with this new one. I will never get preachy about it though, it is not for everyone. For us, it was a great choice because we have our own washer/dryer, it has saved us a ton in diaper costs and DS breaks out everytime we put him in sposies. Of course there is the environmental benefits too, but that isn't always the case. I guess it might depend on where you live.

Mourning the loss of Amarine Stella, born at 21 weeks, 6 days.
We will always love you, our little angel.
This weekend will be busy. I'm scrapbooking with friends all day on Saturday and DH and I are going to the Yankee game on Sunday.
QOTD: I think we're going with disposables, at least at first. I've thought a lot about CD'ing but, our laundry room is outside of our house, in the back of our garage. Our last few winters have been pretty harsh and I don't think I'm going to be up for doing that much more laundry in the winter. Maybe we'll re-assess in the spring.

This weekend is our 1 year wedding anniversary so we are going away to spend the weekend together!
As far as diapers go, we will do disposable. If I were a SAHM I would try cloth but living in an apartment where I share washers and dryers I wouldn't want to do that to my neighbors, nor would I have the time!
I can't wait for us to have a weekend with no plans, which isn't until late August I think
This weekend is jam packed, wedding shower, friends BBQ, and going to the Brickyard 400 in Indy.
We will be going back and forth, using cloth at home and disposable on the go. But who knows what will happen once the LO is here!
Hi all!
This weekend we are doing a Birthday Beach BBQ/Bonfire for my twin nephews who are turning 20!! YIKES!! I remember when THEY were in diapers......which leads me to the diaper question. I haven't looked into the whole cloth diaper thing because honestly I am a super germaphobe! All my sisters used disposables, it's what I grew up with while helping to raise all my nephews and nieces. I shall continue the trend of using disposables. maybe at some point I'll consider cloth....who knows!
I LOVE MY THREE KIDS!

I'm not sure what we'll do. I never really considered cloth, but reading some of your posts has made me think about it. Maybe we could do it at home, but I definitely wouldn't want to have babysitters or anyone else have to do it. With DH out of a job (hopefully he'll have one by the time LO arrives), we need something more economical. Hmm. DH will probably hate the idea, but I plan on running it past him.
I'm not sure what the weekend plans are. Maybe I can talk DH into doing the IKEA trip we need another book shelf and I want to look at their baby stuff.
QOTD: Definately using cloth. I am trying very hard to be good to the environment and this is an easy way to do it. The only issue will be (If I ever get a job!) daycare and if we can find one who will accept this.
This weekend should be fun. Tomorrow is my mother's 50th birthday and we (my siblings and I) are throwing her a big party, like we did for Dad last year on his 50th. It's a surprise party. She knows she'll have a party but knows none of the details about when and where. Saturday morning, we have a wedding to go to.
QOTD: We're planning on disposables.
Wow! I am shocked that so many are considering or decided on cloth. I don't know anyone IRL that uses them so I guess I assumed most people feel the same as I do. But, I commend those that are willing to deal with the hassle!
As for weekend plans... we are moving to another state this weekend! Well technically Monday but since DH works Tues-Sat as his regular schedule Monday is our weekend. On Sunday we have a baptism to attend for our niece. An exciting weekend!
Hi everyone! This weekend I have my brother and his girlfriend coming to stay the night on Friday and then on Saturday we have my mom's 60th surprise birthday party. I bought a cute dress at Motherhood Maternity to wear to the party! I'm not showing all that much, but it was too cute to pass up!
QOTD: I haven't thought about cloth at all yet. I imagine that I'll just go with disposables because they're easier. But who knows, I like the idea of saving money!
QOTD: I was late to start cloth with DD, but am so glad I switched. Environmental and $ savings were secondary reasons for us... we switched with her because there was so much poop in my laundry anyway... she had monstrous blowouts time after time after time, until we switched.
This LO, we won't even waste the $ on sposies, (s)he'll be in cloth from the start. I have started my nb stash... I cannot believe how cute and little nb cloth diapers are!
I'm actually painting the nursery this weekend.
Since we are doing gender neutral, I figure it's best to get it painted now than to wait until I have a big belly to move around!
QOTD: We'll be using cloth diapers. I like that they are chemical free and that they are much more inexpensive that disposables. Plus, they're just so stinkin' cute!
Not much planned for the weekend. We may go to babiesrus and walmart just to get some ideas and then look them up in baby bargains.
As of now, we will be using disposable. If I was a SAHM it may be different but I won't be.

QOTD: What are your thoughts on diapers? Cloth or disposables or undecided?
Cloth! My mom is a HUGE believer in cloth, and I told her I was going to leave the decision up to DH as he will be the primary stay at home dad and I don't want to force my idealogy on him when it means more work for him. To my surprise, he was 100% for it.
I'm stuck working all weekend. I'm a nurse at a Children's Hospital and only have to work 3 days a week (but 12 hour night shifts!). So I'll be busy changing diapers, feeding, burping, and giving tylenol over the weekend. Lots of practice!
I am definitely going with disposables. Lots of respect to those of you who will use cloth but I won't be going that route.
qotd: we used disposables and will the next time too-just easier for us and my weak stomach. it is hard enough to change the training potty and big girl panties some days much less cloth diapers.
had a dr. appointment this afternoon-heartbeat is strong at 150 and i have gained a whole pound so far! next appointment is august. 21 for the ultrasound.
QOTD: I already do enough laundry. Disposable diapers for me!
WOW, i was shocked at the number of cloth responses...then further down came the disposable responses.
Anyway, we will be using dispoable. I honestly haven't even considered cloth. I would like to be environmentally friendly, just dont know much about cloth and the idea kinda just grosses me out.
Maybe some of you girls will change my mind.
After all, there is time!
We're heading off to a family reunion camping trip this weekend about an hour away! We're tenting it for the 1st time with our almot 23 mo DS! So hope that goes well! At least i'll have an air mattress!
We're going disposibles, we are and haven been with our DS, and I'm afraid that we will be having 2 in diapers for just a little bit.. unless potty training is AWESOME!
Hey!
I spaced on bringing lunch so all I've had today is a (huge) piece of coffee cake and some Ensure, so I'm not feeling great. Oops.
QOTD: We're leaning toward cloth, mostly for environmental reasons. And they're so much cuter!
So happy to be going home a week early but ..notlooking forward to the flight home.
QOTD: Not sure yet.
We leave for 2 weeks of sweet sweet PEI vacation on Saturday. Cow's ice cream here I come!
We are not decided yet on cloth or sposies. We'd both prefer cloth, but we still rent and may not be able to afford a place with its own washer/dryer with me not working for a year. Hopefully cloth will prevail!
