Anyone drifted away from CD?

in Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

We started out in disposables then switched to cloth around 3 months. I LOVE them but put him in disposables for a while when we moved (to avoid extra laundry). Then we did it because of a diaper rash, then one thing or another. Now, I feel like I can't get caught up on laundry to save my life. I want to go back, especially at home, but can't for some reason, lol.

Anyone else drifted away for one reason or another?

    Ahh! I miss you guys too! But once it went to something with a password or something, I was never able to get in. I think about it all the time, lol.

    Thank you!! It only took me about 50 tries, lol. I was using a regular point and shoot with no flash so both had to be perfectly still- that obviously doesn't happen much with little ones.

    Yeah, that's me. We stopped and just can't seem to get back to it. Now we have enough disposables to last through PTing, so we'll try again with the next one. I hope! I really did like it!

    Yuppers. I was all about CD. Then LO started getting a bad rash and nothing I tried was working, so we switched to DD. I miss my cloth and just yesterday tried out the CD again and he started getting a rash again.  Plus, his DC doesn't allow CD.  I would LOVE to use my CD again.  We did use them successfully for over a year, so I don't feel like it was a total waste. I just wish I knew what was causing the rash.

    We stopped CDIng ds around 20 months, we were having a lot of leak problems because he was such a heavy wetter. We are planning to CD #2 so we'll see how long we can make it with her.

    Yep, same here. Once DD had a couple diaper rashes I gave up. Every time I put her in cloth lately she gets one again. I am thinking of giving them 1 more try and if she gets another rash I'll get rid of them.

    They were also much easier during spring/summer because DD wouldn't have to wear pants, just dresses or bloomers over them. Jeans and most pants just don't fit right on DD with the cloth.

    I did CD for the first 3 months, or so and then stopped once he outgrew them because 1. I won a year of free huggies and 2. I was having so many issues with BFing and DS sleeping that I just couldn't deal with anything else.  I got back into them when DS was about 9 months, because a few friends were using gdiapers and I love them.  

    We never use cloth overnight, though.  I just don't want to mess with sleep.  I may try with baby #2.

    We did part time CD at home (which was all the time in the beginning - we had a nanny until we moved at 16 months and I started SAH). Not overnight though. Around the time we moved I started using disposables and I also ran out of the diaper liners I like....and just never got around to ordering more. I need to get back to it though and order some off amazon. We have number 2 coming in June and I definitely plan to CD during the newborn phase. The BM poop is so much easier to deal with!
