Hello Ladies!
I let M run around in just her diaper last night because I don't have any cute pictures of her in her fluffy butt. Every time I went to take a picture she would get excited and start crawling towards me so her butt would not show up. I probably to close to 30 pictures and only got maybe two.
Re: CD Daily Check In
I would love to meet other ladies who CD! I have met Ananke IRL but I met her on here first. Does that count?
I have tried to convert a few but no such luck yet. They all look at me like I'm crazy.
I also hate when I am out in public and I go to change a diaper and I get the side eye from people. I'll still do it no matter how many dirty looks I get. I love to CD!
Sure! I was just excited to run into other CD mommas while I was out in the "real world" Me and hermione hang out sometimes when we're not busy with grad school! It's great! I really needed mommy friends as my other IRL friends moved out of state or don't have kids so they just don't understand.
I have not explored the world of fitted diapers yet but I found this yesterday

I went nuts! I am a musician so I just love it. I may have to break down and get it.
Super cute! That's expensive. We do mostly fitteds but I get plain colored ones so I don't feel bad about covering them up.
Francesca Pearl is here! Josephine Hope is almost 3!
I get the side eye a lot too. People are crazy.
We need to get together soon. BTW
That is so cute! I love music notes
It is expensive. That's why I haven't bought it yet. It only says 1 available and I am still not jumping on it. I don't think I would be too upset if it sold before I could get it. Maybe I don't want it as much as I thought lol.
I would like to try and make one but I don't know if I am that brave yet.
Really? People always tell me how cute DS's CDs are. They can't believe cloth diapers are so easy and not pins and plastic pants.
I have decided that I don't like the Imse Vimse liners I bought for DS. They gave him a rash. His poop is still washable, but I really need to get with it and buy a diaper sprayer.
I am venturing into the world of prefolds + covers, and I am almost sure I like it better than my pockets. Day care won't do prefolds and covers, but I am seriously considering selling off my pocket stash except what we need for dc and buying more prefolds and covers once I am really used to it.
On that note, I bought a really pretty weehuggers cover and it leaked on me. Literally ON me. I blame a prefold folding fail. I knew I should have just folded it in thirds.
I have officially completely flipped my stash. I had almost all Fuzzibunz, which were a gift. We ended up really disliking them (leaking constantly and a TERRIBLE fit), so I sold them on CL. I have restashed with 21 Applecheeks. I am in love. Never a leak, and they make it so easy to Indie to move around! I love waking up to dry baby sheets everymorning.
I think I have almos 45 diapers now...! And that's not including the 24 newborn ones! Lol I think I need to stop now.
I just tried out our first GM this week. Would post a pic, but I can't get tinypic to work:*( I really like the fit, and J seems to like wearing it!
I have wanted to try Applecheeks but I cannot make myself spend the money.
What print did you get?
I'm buying one from a bumpmom, it's black and white polkadots with bright yellow snaps. I love it.
It's this one. It sat forever as a straggler and I had eyed an NIP on spots a few weeks before and regretted not buying it so it seemed like destiny. I wondered why no one wanted it and as I was looking at pics of J in it, some of the lemons look like boobs...
I think I saw the one you're getting. It's soooo cute and the yellow just completes the look!
Oh do it! Lol
I plan on getting size 1's for our next LO. They are only $15.20 at Diva Diapers right now. ($22 with an insert) Try www.allofcraigs.com , too!
I am a prefolds from pockets convert! I did get leaks at first with prefolds but I chalked it up to learning how to get the fold just right. My favorite is the twist fold with a snappi and a flip cover. I have about 10 pockets, I was thinking of selling them off and getting more prefolds and covers but I decided not to in case I like them better when she gets bigger.
Yay! Once you start with the prints...you will never go back.
So, I am on the diaper buying wagon and it sucks. This means my stream of fluffy mail has stopped I do however have a friend who is having me go shopping for WAHMs for her little boy, so that will tide me over until I can buy more.
I think we should have a day where we show off stash pictures!
Can I direct dh directly to you when the packages start arriving? Now I want to sell off all my utilitarian diapers and buy prints. You know to support WAHMs...
As a mom it is totally your duty to support other WAHMs...right? That is what I tell myself, at least. I want to sell all of my 'brand' diapers, too.
I just posted some on craigslist, I'm not sure how much luck I'll have on there. I need them to sell so I can buy more diapers. It's funny, a few short months ago I thought it was silly buying anything but the basics. I was obviously mistaken.
I would post them on the Cloth FB group! There are lots of moms on there who stick to the brand diapers.
