We'll be using them. Better for the environment, better for baby's bum, and more cost effective!

Used them with AJ when I realized they were still used (he was 7 months old when we started). LOVE THEM! Using them again, but starting earlier this time.

I will skip the cloth diapers. I'm a recovering germ-a-phob, so it is not even remotely possible. Have enough laundry. I drive a mini to make up for it!

I have my newborn stash already. I'm looking forward to it. I've never liked disposables.

While I can totally see the benefits and drawbacks of each, I would like to primarily use Cloth. But I know that if I leave our kid with family members, they won't know what the heck to do with a cloth diaper lol. So I'll probably use disposable for those occasions. I love how cloth are cost effective and better for the environment- plus, you'll never have to run out to the store at midnight for a pack of diapers! (Well as long as you keep up on the laundry!)

I didn't think they'd be for me but I loooove them! I do use disposables at night and sometimes when someone watches her, but that is rare. As for being cost effective, just don't get into the buying trap! I have about 50 diapers LOL

Very good point about the buying trap Christine! LOL. I could so see myself doing that!

Do the cloth diapers effect hw their clothes fit at all? It always seems like their pants look funny with the cloth underneath... just curious!

I just have a variety of pants sizes-the size she's in now for when she's in disposables (like Christine, I would never ask someone watching her to use them, or if we are on vacation or something disposable is easier) and then a size up for cloth. For girls it's easy to put them in dresses and skirts because it doesn't affect anything!

If we don't leave the house, I really don't care how big her butt looks But when we go out, I put her in the trimmest ones we have (bumGenius AIO organics, or Flips). But they are still bulkier than disposables. I haven't put her in jeans lately, so I'd have to try that to see how she was able to get around in them. But in the warmer weather, I just put the cutest ones or the ones that match her outfit on

I have no issues with cloth being too bulky for any of my kids' clothes, but they are both super skinny.
