Cloth Diapering

Newbie

What's the easiest way to start CD?? How do I know which will be our "best fit"??? I don't want to spend lots of money trying to find the right one. How do I know how many? What products are the best to wash the CD with? I need all the help I can get! TIA 

Re: Newbie

  • Start with the FAQs at the top of the board. There are great overviews and resources there. Give it a few weeks to sink in and to be able to sort it all out in your head. Then ask some specific questions once you're ready.

    The easiest way to start CDing is to just do it. No one can tell you what will be your best fit. It depends on your LO's shape, what you're ready/willing/able to do, what your lifestyle is like, etc. You may want to consider a cloth diaper trial.

    The FAQs should answer your other basic questions and get you started.

  • Welcome! Dr. L was spot on with the FAQ suggestion but I just wanted to say GL!  Most start with a trial here, here, here or here are just a few. Or you could buy a few used diapers to test the fit of each brand and save some money. Have fun!

  • What's the easiest way to start CD?? Get a few different kinds to try. Do you want economical (prefolds) or easy to use (AIO or pockets)? I personally love pocket diapers (kawaii has great prices)

    How do I know which will be our "best fit"??? You are just going to have to try them!

    How do I know how many? depends on how often you will wash them. I have prefolds that i use during the day (16) wirh covers and pockets and AIO for nighttime and when I am out and about (I have like 10 total of those) I wash every other day or every 3 days. 

    What products are the best to wash the CD with? i LOVE crunchy clean! they have the best scents and its good for hardwater! 

     

    GOOD LUCK!!
