Diaper of Choice
For the moms out there, what's your diaper of choice?
DH and I are thinking about starting to buy a box of diapers every other time to the grocery, but I am curious what the moms have found to be the best diaper.

Re: Diaper of Choice
When he was a newborn, the Pampers Swaddles were the best. When he outgrew those, I found Huggies were nice. When he was about 3 months old, I found Target generic brand were good. After about 5 months old, I like the Luvs diapers. And I use Huggies Overnights at nighttime because when he sleeps through the night, he won't leak. So, for now, I would just pick up a few boxes of Pampers Swaddlers. You will find that it's all trial and error with diapers. So I wouldn't start buying them yet. I would however note how much each diaper is and where they are so you can make informed decisions on prices at a later time. Do this with formula too.
We only used pampers swaddlers then we graduated to pampers cruisers.. Everything else leaked like crazy for us..
When we do use sposies, we think the Pampers Swaddlers are okay. They don't seem to hold as much as the BumGenius though.
I definitely wouldnt recommend buying too many diapers before the baby is born. You never know what is going to work out for you or what size they will be in or for how long.
Cloth, baby! We use Bum Genius & Fuzzi Buns. There is a store in Northville that sells cloth. Um... website is www.naturalbabies.com.
In the beginning, we used Swaddlers & liked those WAY more than anything else. Now, however, if DS is @ MILs, she will use Seventh Generation.
For my 6 month old, we're using Pampers Swaddlers. For my 2 year old, during the day we use Pampers Dry and then at night we use White Cloud. White Cloud let's him stay dry until the morning's diaper change - it can hold a lot!!
GOOD FOR YOU, GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm doing cloth as well, and can't wait to get out to Tree City to attend their cloth workshop on Nov 1st

Have you heard of the cool new place called Baby Buttles? ?www.babybuttles.com ...they're a local diaper delivery service, for all those that are queasy about washing your own diapers! ?I'm definitely registering for this service for the first few weeks!!?
We're using gdiapers. They are 1/2 cloth and 1/2 flushable/compostable. The flushable part is a liner that goes in the cloth diaper. You can get them at Wholefoods and other health stores or online. The cloth covers are adorable too.
