Girl you don’t know this yet but, this is my bible. I’m taking notes about every brand and word you said. Thank you so much for encouraging me to use flats and enjoy the cloth diapering journey. 🙇🏻♀️
I would love to see a video going over diapers you’ve gotten rid of or the stash your donating and reasons why. I’m intrigued why some might not have worked out for you! 🤔 great stash!!
Tbh, there’s no specific rhyme or reason why some diapers were donated. I’m really tired of the Alva style diapers so a lot of those were donated (includes Nora’s Nursery). But my stash is huge and there are a lot of families who are in need of diapers during these times. I have diapers loaned out to 2 people atm, so my stash is big enough lol. As I was prepping for this video I realized that I could donate diapers that I don’t reach for as often. See, my girls are getting older now. Both are toddlers and not all OS diapers are truly OS. They don’t always fit up to potty training. So some diapers aren’t fitting great anymore which is suspected lol. All of the diapers I’m donating have worked well for me at some point. I’d just rather see them get use at the Cloth Option 💖
When you get your newborns back you should do a video on how to sanitize and clean them🙂 I know so many mamas that buy used starting out and would be sooo much help showing them how to clean them up😀
I find these videos so helpful even companies no longer in existence because when I find things thrifting half the time i have no clue what I find .I found a quilt bag at the thrift store all hemp and wool inserts and tone of pocket diapers and covers must of been someone that had it all figured out no microfibre in the bag all for $5 I was in shock the amount of cloth diapers that u can find thrifting especially when you know what your looking for
Man, I mislabeled one of the diapers as the wrong brand. Can you figure out which one? 😉😏 I wasn’t about to re-upload the video for 1 small mistake lol, so oh well 😂
I'm buying twenty five pocket diapers with inserts and prefolds for a friend's new baby (once the baby is born), and I am learning so much about cloth diapers I thank you for that. The baby who will receive this bundle of cloth diapers will have very little to no exposure to disposable diapers I will feel good that this is the case for this child.
I’m so sorry. It’s hard going through a divorce. I’m not sure if I heard that right but I’ll be praying for you. And keep the diapers. You never know when you will want another one. Maybe not now but later it could be a possibility. Oh! And I love the video.❤️
Great video of your diaper stash! You made me so curious as to what you have to say about the Nora's Nursery diapers - would love to see a review on that brand!
i always watch ur videos while stuffing my son's diapers. it gave me motivation to continue doing cloth lol 😊😅 he just turned 10 months yesterday and we have been ecd since day 17
Can you do a comparison between the petite crown packa and swim diapers? Also really looking forward to hearing your thoughts on Nora's nursery. I love your videos. Always referring people to your videos
Have you gotten any feedback on the Texas Tushies Newborns?? I LOVE Thirsties NAIO Newborn diaper, but they are definitely on the expensive end for us. Would love to know how the Texas Tushies holds up. They are so affordable.
The last friend I loaned to ended up not sticking with cloth. Her husband was a stay at home dad and he hated cloth 😢 so they just sent the diapers back. Sadly, no feedback on those. They just used the nickis covers with prefolds and the lalabye newborns I had.
I have Bumgenius actually, but it’s put away in a basket. Almost all of my BG is cracked. So I do not use them. They wear down really quickly. The oldest diaper I have from BG is 6 years old and it’s in rough shape. I used it for 4 years with 3 kids. However, they started to wear down after 6 months of use. Elemental Joy has held up better. They’re owned by the same company but use different fabrics. I’m not sure if they go through different manufacturers but my Elemental Joys have been used since 2018 and they’re still in great shape! I use them regularly, too. Also they’re a better price. I want to love BG. The design of BG is the format of my ideal microsuede pocket diaper (though I do love athletic wicking jersey too).
What is your top 2 favorite pocket diapers? I’m just starting (on my first week) my son is 6 months old and is 18lbs and wears 12 month clothes. We’re using disposable at night currently because I only have a few that I’m trying out from a friend!
They’re actually colored with colorfast dyes that do not bleed. I’m sure there are cases where it does bleed, however I haven’t had that experience yet. dharma dyes has some really good products
Yesss I reallyyyyy want to know what your thoughts on Nora’s Nursery diapers are!!! They fit my chunky 15lb baby very well and the elastics tend to be the gentlest on her. However, I wish they came in an AWJ option 😣
The inners of NN got pilly after 1 wash lol. I’ve heard mixed reviews from other people that the elastics relaxed quickly. I haven’t had that experience yet but i rarely reach for them lol
@@JaysNest Oh yes. I have noticed that they get pilly super fast too 🥴 Hmm 🤔 Do you have any recommendations for gentler elastics that don’t get relaxed to the point where it’s ridiculous? Between her super sensitive skin and chunkyyy thighs, it’s hard to find just the right fit that doesn’t leave those borderline angry red marks 😣
I’ve seen a lot of people rave about them in the group. I don’t currently own any, but would absolutely consider it as a booster depending on the fabric it’s made of!
I'm folding flats while watching your stash of lots and lots of flats. I'm getting fancy and trying airplane fold. Waiting for Baby to wake up so I can try them on him. 💜 Heidi
@@JaysNest I'm feeling well now at almost a month postpartum. Thanks for asking! My midwife had me lay in bed for the first week to heal a tear. It was hard for me to accept at first and hard on my 2.5 year old who wanted me to get up and do things. But it was good for my body and allowed me to heal quickly. Now I'm up and about, doing diaper laundry and all.
I sold my newborn diapers right after we were done. I regret it not because I plan to have more kids, but would have loved to do what you do & loan them to friends
Maybe you can keep your OS stash to loan out when you’re done diapering. It’s truly fun to loan to friends who want to try cloth. You do have to factor in when people don’t give the loaner stash back or sell off your diapers. I had 2’friends do that back in 2015 😞 I had roughly $500 worth of diapers sold off by them which is a bummer.
Sadly the video is still on my old laptop. I have so many videos and clips of things from the past 3 years between 3 laptops. If I could figure out a way to get those videos off of there then I’d have a lot of content to push out, the moby being one of them lol. Nothing fancy with the Moby though! I just cut them in 24x24 squares, some are 24x25 in. No sewing. ☺️ Measure and cut- that’s it! Super simple. don’t stretch the fabric as you cut though
@@millao2190 they’re definitely more newborn/infant sized. Worked great by itself during the infant stage. I use it with 2 hemp inserts and the diapers are still trim! My girls wet more in the front so I don’t have an issue with the length of it, but if you’d need more absorbency in the back then I could see an issue with them. If you have a heavy wetter then this could also be a nice way to boost diapers as well💗 I only paid like $5 for mine and I think I got maybe 6 flats out of them 🤔 (if I’m being honest I forget 😂 but it’s something like that lol)
I think im going to donate locally some odds and ends i cant use i borrowed from a awesome momma for my second baby but being in a rural area without a car getting to the post office to send them back to her was so stressful it could just be my anxiety and having responsibility of someone else property lol but i also live in income based houseing so im hoping i can find someone i know im not the only one struggling with diapers right (somehow got alot of nb not many onesize lmao ) lol kids are expensive no matter ur budget 😬😂♥️love this stash video oh and if u ever want to do a experiment try to stretch the shrunken (
WOOL!! Please make every video about all things wool! I have been searching for more wool videos. Please talk about lano baths. Please demonstrate. Please talk about using wool. Please talk about washing wool, soap preference, poop leaks onto the wool, AND DRY TIMES. Please demo. Talk about Fit. Overnight. Wear over time. Do you use homemade wool covers? I have made several covers from a pattern.
Oh man, I was typing my comment when you said you were going thru your divorce and I almost missed what you said. You are so valued for what you do in this community. I love your gardening videos and see how you treasure nature and motherhood. I'm so sorry if you're going thru something difficult and heartbreaking. I left an absolute evil abuser and it still hurt my heart. I am proud of all the work I did to heal. And I can tell you it's possible to be okay again, no matter how dark things might be now. Sending encouragement and good vibes your way! I'm also a praying person so I will be praying for you just now. Best wishes dear!!
I have about 20+ videos already planned out and outlined ☺️ a lot of this stuff will be covered in the videos! I do not have handmade wool but that will be a part of my series with wool. I don’t sew but my mother is a seamstress and I’ve been wanting to learn.
And thank you 💖 It took a lot of inner work last year to even leave, but I am grateful for the path I’m on and the self love I’ve found along the way ✨🙏🏼
Some people say Pockets are the best cloth diapers. Some say Covers are the best. But deep down we all know... Pam designed this print and she's a Queen, we love her so much.
“She do her thing, she do her thing” -to the ragged Geffen hemp😂😅 I literally laughed. Lol

Yes, please do a newborn stash video!! I'm pregnant with my second child and currently updating my stash.
I'm liking the Esembly cover. They are made from recycled polyester made from plastic water bottles. I hope more companies follow suit! 💜 Heidi
The size 2 is such a weird fit for us, very saggy and baggy lol
I’ve heard a lot of people loving the size 1 though!
@@JaysNest That makes senes. We have the size 1.
Pleeease show your newborn stash! Its adorable! I really love newborn cloth diapers 💙
I love them too lol. So tiny and cute

You are radiating joy and happiness! ☀️

How do you store all this?! I’d love to see your storage/organization ♥️
The video is now live ❤️❤️
Great video ill have to try those clothes diapers take care you look beautiful.💞👍
Thank you for sharing! I feel so much better about how many diapers I have collected now 😀
“The collectors stash” 🤣
Wondering if you like Bumgenius and why you may not have those? I see the Elemental Joy there but curious about if you’d recommend Bumgenius?
I have Bumgenius actually, but it’s put away in a basket. Almost all of my BG is cracked. So I do not use them.

Right now I’m reaching for a lot of Stout House and La Madre OSA right now.
So many great brands though depending on what your budget is
Those hand dyed flats are so pretty. Do you wash them with your other white flats and inserts? I’d be scared of color transfer!
They’re actually colored with colorfast dyes that do not bleed. I’m sure there are cases where it does bleed, however I haven’t had that experience yet. dharma dyes has some really good products
I would love to see more about newborn stash

So many different things!! ❤️
Can u review the Texas Tushies inserts...I hear great things on absorbency!
I’ve seen a lot of people rave about them in the group. I don’t currently own any, but would absolutely consider it as a booster depending on the fabric it’s made of!
Didn’t know you lived in Indiana! Super cool! Hellos from NWI😌
I’m SE 🥰
I love watching your videos. Love the intro as well! Mabuhay!

Hey love 💕
I tagged you on instagram

I wish to buy your old stash..
But the Shipping fee's is so expensive here in the Philippines.🥺🥺😢😢🤔🤔
Thirsties just came out with a monarch print! (Retailer exclusive)
I sold my newborn diapers right after we were done. I regret it not because I plan to have more kids, but would have loved to do what you do & loan them to friends

I felt cheated by Rumparooz’s Scarlet stock photo too.... 😭
Forreal 😔 it had a lot of potential lol. I loved the idea of a dark burgundy cover, but it’s just plain red 😂
