Lovely video! I’ve been using cloth diapers for over 3 years now and I love theme! I do a couple of things different then you that may be useful for other mama ☺️ 1. I don’t what’s multiple time a new diaper. Just one what’s and then is good to go. You just need to know that is not gonna be at is full absorbency from the beginning, so you wanna use it when you don’t need a huge absorbency (like at home or in the afternoon) 2. You can wash your diaper together with the rest of you laundry, and this is the most sustainable way to wash them. Just start with the diapers only and run a quick rinse with no soap, like 10/15 minute, then add the rest of the laundry and run you full w hashing program 3. Pocket diaper are not the best solution for nighttime. Fitted diapers or flat diapers may be more efficient 😘 Hope this is helpful! ❤️ Sara
Thank you for this video! I don't have kids yet, but my husband and I want to start next year, and I'm doing my research now. Your content is so detailed, and I love that you don't have a fancy "styled" background full of props. It just looks and feels like I'm sitting in the living room with a friend, talking, with the cats nearby. Love it!
I joined a fb cloth diaper group when my son was born and learned some really cool tips! One of my favorites was that you can use flour sack towels as a soaker pad! My cloth diapers were like your bum genius ones with the soaker pads in the insert. I fell in love with the flour sack towels bc they're thinner than the soaker pad, but they were more absorbent. It's nice when you're child becomes mobile to have thinner pads, but yet are more absorbent. Thank you for all your tips! Especially with pulling the sides up to close the leg gap! I will definitely be using that for future babies. And BTW, I'm glad your cats joined you for the video 😄❤️
I'm not sure if somebody already commented that, but made-to-order companies do so to avoid any waste :) it's more sustainable and hits the individualist-heart when it comes to fashion
We loved cloth diapers!!! For extra protection at night, we loved the charcoal bamboo pads. Never had a leaky diaper at night with those and we only needed one pad per diaper. I'm sure you're already doing this, but we didn't learn it until later on so I want to share it with other mamas. When you are putting on the diaper, make sure you are tucking the leg areas all the way into the leg crease! This will help with some leaky probables too. You want it to fit nice and snug like underwear ☺️
I LOVED cloth diapering my three babies. I used so many brands (even made my own!! which was cool), but my favorite way to diaper de-evolved to “trifold” and “fitted” organic cotton and bamboo cloth diapers from Green Mountain Diapers. They are just straight up old fashioned cotton diapers - the trifold you would fold and fasten into place, the fitted looks just like a diaper but it’s all cloth and you fasten it at the tabs. Then I’d used a Thirsties PUL cover over top. I’d fasten the cloth diapers with a “Snappi.” I used wool covers at night and sometimes during the day, and the Thirsties covers during the day. It is so old school but it was cheap and super effective and so stinking cute, especially the wool covers!! Never had any leaks. I highly recommend you check out these brands and this way of diapering. Oh! And this system so easy to launder. In fact, you can reuse the covers a couple times so long as they aren’t soiled. Just toss the cloth diaper into the bucket, replace with a fresh one and reuse the cover! I like pocket diapers but they start to smell over time whereas the cotton/bamboo cloth diapers and the covers never did, because there wasn’t a polyester lining between bum and absorbent pad, which is the stinky culprit! Lol! Using wool covers is a whole new world. You can reuse the cover over and over because wool doesn’t absorb smell and bacteria. You wash it every once in awhile with wool soap, lay flat to dry. I would toss my few wool covers into my laundry machine on the hand wash setting on the smallest load and let my machine do all the work. Anyway, that was a lot. Sorry! I actually have some cloth diapering content on my old TH-cam channel you can check out.
@@stppnwlfn Very true! Everything we do has an impact...so we have to make smart choices when possible to *minimize* the impact because it's simply not possible to eliminate it.
For cloth wipes on the go I usually bring my little spray bottle and spray her bottom then wipe. You can literally spray water with a bit of coconut oil directly on and it works well! Hope that helps
I’ve cloth diapered my now 11 year old, my 5 year old, and am now expecting another ❤️ and I was searching for new nappies on the market as I love most of what we have, but as the majority we’re used when we bought them, we had to Chuck some due to the pul not being so great when we bought, but had to make due because of financial reasons (store them in a pillowcase then in a plastic tote and the PUL should be fine. We have 6 lil joeys that we bought used when I was pregnant for my last child and they are still like new!) but I wanted to see if there was anything else out there that I could replace ones I had to dispose of and stumbled on this video. I usually find it incredibly difficult to stay and watch a whole video because people like to talk to the camera as if they’re being interviewed, but I absolutely love your personality, you’re adorable and you know how to keep people interested in what you have to say! Kinda making me want to spend some money on a bum genius or 2 😂 I would like to add one thing though, washing new nappies 6 times isn’t always necessary. Apparently it’s better to do shorter uses between washes, so it still gets used between washes, but has the chance to get those extra washes sooner. I hope I explained that coherently 😅
I respect that you don't share your little babe on the internet, but boy do I ever wanna see this little cutie!!!! I'm sure he's the squishiest lovable guy ever!!
I've been cloth diapering for 3 years and have 2 babies in diapers! I love it! The only thing I don't like about these two brands are that Bumgenius uses microfiber, which is still plastic and both Bumgenius and Grovia elastics seem to stretch out faster than other brands. I loooove Lighthouse Kids Company, Smart Bottoms, and Thirsties though!
I loved using cloth with my babies because we never ran out!! Just have to wash a load and you're good to go. No emergency runs to the store for diapers!
Few tips/ important points: you can wash diapers together with other stuff since all the poop is already out in the pre wash, but it is important to also rinse once again in tbeend to get rid of any residue of detergent. Also it is important what the pads are made of: bamboo and hemp are the ones that soaks up more and microfibre soaks up faster, soit is good to pear the2
Cloth wipes out and about: It seems like a lot of people use the on-the-go wipe dispenser from Skip Hop or mini wet bags (like the clutch bag from Thirsties ) for storage. Also, I have heard that if you boil the water up front and pour it over the wipes, they remain ready-for-use for a couple of days. With the wipe dispenser you can even recreate the convenience of being able to just pull out one wipe after the other by folding the cloth wipes in half and then laying one half of the wipe into the next half-folded one... like a zig-zag. In order to find the most absorbent inserts and fitted diapers for nighttime I would recommend looking for absorbency lists online... usually Geffen Baby hemp products make it to the top of the list.

When we had our first we were in a tiny apartment and shared a simple washer with the whole floor for the first year. We found out our city had two companies that would drop off cloth diapers and pick up/clean the old ones every week! It was only slightly less money then traditional diapers, but worth it for all the waste we saved. We also kept it simple and would use disposables for long trips out of the house or traveling, both which we just didn't do often with our lifestyle. Worked like a dream.
Love this. All solid points. Cloth diapered my boys...one big tip!! Make sure your natural fiber cloth diapers don't get eaten by moths. In the summer I would hang the diapers in our house to dry. The moths then laid their larvae in the fibers of the diaper and ate the fabric. Once I started to catch on I put the diapers in the dryer to get rid of them but out came handfuls lint and a ruined stash. No sight of little larvae just a moth here and there.
I have cloth diapered for almost 3 years now and when we are out and about when I put a cloth diaper Into the diaper bag I also stuff a cloth wipe into the diaper so I have it right there to use and I bring a small little spray bottle with the solution. I also bought a travel wipes container and keep extra cloth wipes in that for extra messy changes!
I literally just wet some reusable wipes (or wash cloths) , put them into a reusable silicon snack bag and add some extra water to keep them moist. Voila, waste free wipes. Great for outdoor adventures as well!
Amazing thank you. We've ventured in Cloth nappies recently and I'm slightly obsessed 🙈 you may find you need to use 2 parters soon for night time as it's quite rare for a pocket nappy to last all night 😊
My favorite diapers when I cloth diapered my daughter was bumgenius and if I had to do it all over again I would have just gotten those instead of all the other ones I tried! Besides the newborn diapers since the bumgenius did not fit my newborn! My daughter is 11 so I used 2.0 bumgenius diapers! I loved using a diaper sprayer for solids! I also used country save to wash them. I used cloth wipes too and still use them for family cloth!
First: you are very sympathic😁 I also love the Govia diapers! You can put a face cloth between the inserts, fold it 2 or 3 times. It will stay dry all night😊. For going outside, I always put some vipes with water and coconut oil in a box. Very simple! For newborns: do you know the charlie banana diapers? They are sooo soft and the size can be changed up to end of diapering😁 Have a great day!
2nd baby and using cloth diapers this time. Just bought the GroVia buttah newborn AIO and the baby O.N.E cloth diapers, 28 of each! I got them from amazon, we can't get Bum genius delivered here in NZ. Have watched a few cloth diaper videos, and looked at a few websites and really liked the look and ease of the GroVia ones. Thanks for making this video, made my choice so much easier!
Because u planing to change ur night time cloth diapers inserts I Recommend thirstiest prefold cotton and hemp and also booster cotton and hemp work amazing together and it’s not as bulky at night
I never pre soaked my cloth wipes. I just had two spray bottles of wipe solution and one always stayed in our diaper backpack, then bought a few extra wipes that also always stayed in our bag.
Our daughter was born in feb 2021. I had cloth diapers on my registry but only one person was willing to get a pack for us. I got the rest w my stimulus money. We have 6 sets of 6. That is more than enough to change frequently and wash twice per week. I got pocket diapers and invested in extra absorbant bamboo soaker pads. We started around 6 weeks when we ran out of the disposable newborn diapers we were gifted. They have worked great and I swear that we haven't had any blow outs in the cloth but we constantly have them in the disposable ones. Yes you will need bigger sized clothing to accommodate the puffy butt from the cloth diapers.
For our reusable wipes, my sister gave me something like a little handmade bag. It's juste a small bag, made with a piece of cloth and two snap buttons. I just have to put the "new" wipes inside when they're clean and dry.
Thank you for your video! I am using the Alva baby pocket diapers but looking into Grovia. Everything you said for why you love cloth diapers resonated with my soul lol. You’re a good mama!
For cloth diapering out and about I pack dry cloth wipes and a small spray bottle. Although washable and reusable, AIOs and pocket cloth diapers are made with a waterproof layer of plastic. Still much better than single use disposable diapers! 💜🧷 Heidi
We love blueberry simplex organic AIO for day and then we use petit lulu maxi night with a mother ease airflow wrap at night. Lasts 13 hours with no leaks!! Love love love the blueberry prints too. Highly recommend those as super easy to wash and wear. Medium to slow drying for blueberry and slow dry for petit lulu but that's the nature of the material and absorbancy!
When i travel with my kids, i use reusable wipes! I used to use a swing top jar with pre wet wipes and just throw that in yge diaper bag. I have recently switched though to a spray i make with water, jojoba oil, and some essential oils, like tea tree, lavender and sometimes frankincense. And i put that in a spray bottle and take dry wipes with ne and just shake the bottle and spray that directly on baby's diaper area and wipe with a dry wipe! I like this new way better because the jojoba oil is soo good on their skin!
Hey! We are using cloth diapers from the beginning and I love it aswell! My baby is like half a year older than Cosmo I think. At the moment we are using disposable diapers for the night because the cloth diapers were always so full and leaking and I could not fit more stuffing in it.. And a Tip for out and about: I always have a wetbag ready with prestuffed diaper and some reusable wipes and I have always a water drinking bottle with me when I am outside. So when I need to use the wipes I make them wet with my drinking water and just put them in the wetbag with the diaper! And I think I have an answer for the bumgenius working way.. I know other Brands who work like this aswell and they do it from sustainable reasons. Because they just produce exactly the products wich are wanted and needed! And dont overproduce wich is actualy great I think. Of course it takes longer for the customer but especialy in the cloth diaper game it make sense I think. Aswell with the reparing, so this exact diaper is not wasted. But I totaly get the point with "I dont have time". Oh and hemp inlays can take much more Liquid but also because of this they need longer to dry. Wishing you and everyone much fun with the diapers! 🤗
We cloth diaper too!! I find that microfiber inserts aren't super great they absorb quickly but don't hold as much as bamboo or hemp. So i put a microfiber ontop and hemp on the bottom and that holds REALLY well even at night time and he's not quite as bulky. But i do put in an extra hemp or bamboo insert at night just so there's more "storage" 😅
Cloth diapers are awesome. I cloth diapered for three babies and if we have any more I’ll do it again. A few things- 1. Boys and girls fit differently. I had way more leak problems with my boy and I’m pretty sure that’s just anatomy. 2. Just recently found out that “flushable” diaper liners are not septic safe (😭). 3. Reusable wipes are soooooo easy, I spray the cloths as I use them (also amazing for going out! Pack dry wipes and a mini spry bottle with wipe solution) because I found they felt gross if they set in the solution for too long. 4. You do need to buy a separate set of newborn diapers. My babies are +8lbs when born and they stay in the newborn diapers for 3-4 months and then the all-in-ones fit just fine. 5. Oh and prefolds are a cheaper route to go if you have limited funds to start with and if you have absolutely NO money even old cotton t-shirts will do the trick. 6. Bonus- all of my kids potty train before they turn 2 and we accredit it to the cloth diapers because they can still feel when they poop or pee and let’s be honest- having wet cloth next on your bum even for a minute is not comfy and it’s a good motivator to use the potty 😉
Tip for cloth diapers: I had a special color of wipes and a travel sized sprayer and those were used for just the diaper bag. I wasn’t vegan when my boys were clothes diapers so I used wool shorts 🩳 covers and it kept them dry at night with their cloth diapers. Not sure if there is a synthetic wool version but might be worth looking into because it was a huge game changer. Skinny legged babies are so tricky to cloth diaper. Thankfully there are a lot more options then there were almost 14 years ago when I diapered my oldest who was/ is super skinny and LONG! So many blow outs! 🤦♀️
Hannah, I really like how you think things through. Your family is admirable...all of you! And, cowardly people who are dissatisfied with their own lives like to hurt people they envy. And, dear girl, with you, the nasty trolls have much TO ENVY.
Great reminder to put the diapers and inserts in the sun tomorrow. Our daughter has been potty trained for 1.5 years and at 45, no more kids. We have bum genius from 2015 and some earlier insert version. The 2015 version has built-in layers.
For cloth wipes on the go, we always have a bunch folded in the diaper bag already, and then use a small squeezy bottle full of water/wipe solution/what have you (we actually used the peri bottle the hospital gave us for postpartum mamas!) - easy peasy!
Yes to all of this!! Bum genius I agree like what the heck is the deal ?! I got 6 inserts to try and it took 12 weeks. Also I do not recommend spray pal just for future reference. Just use a bucket! Seriously . Don’t do it. Great video, please do a wash update after solids people really need to know a good wash routine, bc it was really frustrating trying to figure it out !
Mama Koala brand on Amazon is a very affordable option - less than $40 for 6 pocket cloth diapers, designed just like bumGenius 5.0. I got all pocket diapers so I could easily mix and match! Agree to use bumGenius at night, especially when baby is older and rolls over onto their belly at night. The bumGenius has the waterproof lip on the front whereas other brands have cloth all the way up and caused leaks. And I definitely think potty training was easier bc we cloth diapered!!
I also cloth diaper my baby since she was a month old. Its fun yet challenging. I spent around 70$ 15 of them are fitteds the others are pockets. I have 27 stash. ☺️ Others were gifts thats why i spent that much only. We saved so much money
I have a cloth 101 video that I tried to cover every faq in but I literally could have made a 10 hour video🤣 Ps you can buy newborn cloth nappies, I used them for the first 12 weeks, gave them to two other friends to us and am going to be using them for the first 3 months again with my next baby :))
I have dabbled in cloth diapers on and off over the years (5 kids ages 3 to 18). When my youngest 2 were both in diapers I used cloth for them when we had financial difficulties. It was awesome. I only stopped because my older potty trained and the younger was too big (he was 42lbs at the time, currently 50lbs). If I had a cloth diaper that fit a large baby, I would have continued.
Onesie extenders! We had leaks when the nappy was squashed by the onesies so by adding a onesie extender it means baby can be in them for longer. We still change every 2/3 hours. Baby boy also! 💙 I also only use cloth nappies (UK) during the day. I haven’t tried them at night yet but maybe soon? Every little helps though! 😊
I'm new to the cloth nappy world and I'm a bit overwhelmed. There are many different types, many different things to know... I feel I need a 2 hour lesson to get my head around exactly what to do and how?? Idk. Anyway, I'm convinced I'm going to use cloth nappies no matter how much it costs me 😅
Thank you for this, so helpful to hear different perspectives with cloth diapering! I am due in September and I am planning to use disposable diapers until she is big enough for the cloth diapers. I decided to get a bunch of different brands to have some variety and see what works best. So far I have some bum genius that I found second hand, Noras nursery, thirsties and grovia. I definitely need to buy some extra inserts for night time and I’ve heard hemp is best for absorbency? Love to hear any tips and opinions!
Hey! Where I live there is a shop wich is specialized in cloth diapers and they have the Option to rent the newborn Size diapers from different Brands. They are packing a Box full of everything needed for the first 2-3 month and so u can figure out wich System and Brand fits you and your baby best! Maybe you also have this Option?
Hemp is the most absorbent but best to pair with something that's a fast absorber, like cotton or bamboo. Most hemp inserts are blended with some cotton - so look for that! :)
Can someone explain it to me why using microfibre and polyester is any better on baby’s skin vs regular plastic diapers? Why not use hemp/bamboo/cotton for cloth diapers?
Companies that are "made to order" ensure less waste will be made because each item that they make has already been bought and paid for by a customer. No unnecessary excess will be made.. at least that's my understanding
I make my own wipe solution and pour it over some wipes and store them in a reusable container to keep at his changing station. If I’m packing his bag for the sitter I’ll put a small spray bottle of it in the bag and have them wet the wipe with plain water but if I’m going somewhere actually out and about, I’ll just put a few wipes in a reusable baggie and have my spray bottle handy for some extra liquid if needed.
It's worth checking out the Clean Cloth Nappies website. Your routine looks pretty good. But you want to make sure your prewash is at least one hour. And you should be filling your machine with other small items for your mainwash to make sure that your washing machine is loaded correctly for proper agitation. There's lots of other important info on their website too :)
Also forgot to add I have medium hard water and the microfiber inserts got stinky pretty quick so I used a yellow edge prefold from green mountain diapers to stuff my bumgenius diapers and that worked great!
You can use a tupper box to transport reusable wet wipes on the go. I prefer them 100% over disposable ones cause they are so much thicker. Little disclaimer (not sure if you are aware): cloth diapers are made from plastic, otherwise they would not be leak proof so it's a bit misleading saying "you don't want your baby in plastic" ;)
I bought Bumgenius second-hand and I think that I would’ve had a better experience if I bought them new. I didn’t like them because my baby was pretty chubby at that time and the crotch was a tad too thick for his thighs. I loved some of their prints though and I never experienced leaks either. I’m interested in Grovia one buttah for the newborn stage (currently expecting).
You might want to invest in some hemp inserts or flats to stuff your bum genius pockets or your Thirties cover, especially for night time. They are the most trim and absorbent insert, they will make a huge difference. I don’t know why companies still use microfiber (which is plastic) Thirsties has great inserts :)
I personnaly use for my son for 3 years pocket diaper but with 2 opening so it mean in the washer the insert come out by their own. The openings are in the front and in the back. Best thing ever, the two brand I know who do that model are la petite ourse ( canadian brand) and happy flute.
I loved this video! We cloth diaper with the same brands! I used newborn cloth diapers this time around with baby number two and loved it! I agree about the whole putting plastic on your new baby just being... weird? Lol. Yay cloth diapers! ♥️
I use cloth nappies too but I'm so curious about the plastic thing? We personally use cloth to reduce waste and obviously different people will have different reasons but... you do realise the waterproof layer on those brands is plastic, right? The fabric is coated with a super thin layer of plastic. So your baby is still using a plastic nappy. If you don't want them in plastic, wool covers over fitteds or flats are a great option!
Made to order business models save massive amounts of money because they don't have to transport or store products before it's sold. I agree that it's annoying though.
Cotton babies (who makes bumgenius) has changed so much over the years! They used to have tons of diapers and they flew off the shelves! They have slowed down quite a bit. They are still my favorite for fit but I love switching out the inserts to the thirsties inserts (cotton doublers and the hemp inserts). They are not microfiber like the ones that bumgenuis comes with plus the thirsties are super absorbent! And just a tip: the bumgenuis don't need to be washed 6 times before use since they are synthetic materials (the microfiber inserts and the micro suede) . Only the natural fiber ones (cotton, hemp, bamboo) need to be washed 6 times because of the oils from the natural fibers.
No offense, but since I have been using Bungenius for quite a while I have some things to point out: you dont need to wash microfiber diapers like Bumgenius pockets 6 times, one is enough (check out the label ;)), also, they have AIOs, not only pockets could have mentioned that as well. And the small inserts is for newborns only..
It could be me and my inefficient research skills, but I’m having a hard time finding a rash cream that is compatible with cloth diapers AND is vegan. If anyone has good suggestions I’m all open!
Any rash cream can be used with cloth nappies as long as you are washing them properly. Check out Clean Cloth Nappies website - it’s an amazing resource.
I do this for the prewash and then remove any that didn't get agitated out before starting the full wash. I used to remove the inserts before the prewash... Until I then had two toddlers who were totally on solids in cloth diapers. 🥴😅
@@idepartasair same! It irks me when a some ball up inside so I also remove those after the prewash. Then I add baby clothes and some smaller sizes items of the rest of the family’s in the mainwash to bulk. 2-in-1 deal lol
I was all set to love cloth diapers but actually, it didn't work for us at all - having the washing machine on for 4hrs/day every other day actually cost us more than buying a big pack of disposables that'd last us a week. Glad it's working out for you though :)
I was thinking earlier today “I need to watch a video about cloth diapers” and then this popped up on my feed! So helpful and fun as usual! Thanks Hannah!
Sorry for the unsolicited advice but we recently had our septic tank checked and the guy said the liners were no bueno. Which is supper unhandy because I loved using the liners.
@@sarahc4194 that’s wonderful to hear! Would you mind telling me what brand you used? My youngest Is out of diapers but my husband and I are discussing another baby.
I think women that work outside of the house and have a one child care taker or are in day care it is not possible for those women to cloth diaper even if they want to do cloth diapers good video
If I got it correctly, their business model is to produce only after they got the order to avoid overproduction, which is more sustainable. However, if it's a big company and they have so many customers they don't need to do that I think, they'll find someone to sell it to.
I felt the same way, but having a baby really increased my tolerance for gross things. You'll touch poop either way, if I'm honest. Just don't count yourself out. They're worth a try 🙂 if you can't do it, give them away.
You can also check out Elimination Communication which can reduce or eliminate the amount of poop you have to deal with (in the diaper*, you obviously have to deal with poop in some way)! I find it really connecting too :)
I learned that the microfibers of some clothing can end up in the ocean anyway and damage the ocean, earth and animals. Yes I know there are hemp or organic clothing but you really need a lot of money to afford organic cloth diapers and be 100% vegan (or care for the earth to the fullest extent)......after that vegan anywhere video, Im surprised at how easy you speak on these things. Or maybe I need to understand your channel is intended for vegans who have the money to do these things (example: use a lot of water and wash the diapers 6 times before even using it). I don't think many of us will ever be able to be truly vegan even if we really wanted to.......
have any child? NO
planning to? NO
am I STILL watching this? YESSSSS!
Literally me rn
haha me too :D
Same
LOL same here
Same girl same ;)
Lovely video! I’ve been using cloth diapers for over 3 years now and I love theme! I do a couple of things different then you that may be useful for other mama ☺️
1. I don’t what’s multiple time a new diaper. Just one what’s and then is good to go. You just need to know that is not gonna be at is full absorbency from the beginning, so you wanna use it when you don’t need a huge absorbency (like at home or in the afternoon)
2. You can wash your diaper together with the rest of you laundry, and this is the most sustainable way to wash them. Just start with the diapers only and run a quick rinse with no soap, like 10/15 minute, then add the rest of the laundry and run you full w hashing program
3. Pocket diaper are not the best solution for nighttime. Fitted diapers or flat diapers may be more efficient

Thank you for this video! I don't have kids yet, but my husband and I want to start next year, and I'm doing my research now. Your content is so detailed, and I love that you don't have a fancy "styled" background full of props. It just looks and feels like I'm sitting in the living room with a friend, talking, with the cats nearby. Love it!
I joined a fb cloth diaper group when my son was born and learned some really cool tips! One of my favorites was that you can use flour sack towels as a soaker pad! My cloth diapers were like your bum genius ones with the soaker pads in the insert. I fell in love with the flour sack towels bc they're thinner than the soaker pad, but they were more absorbent. It's nice when you're child becomes mobile to have thinner pads, but yet are more absorbent.
Thank you for all your tips! Especially with pulling the sides up to close the leg gap! I will definitely be using that for future babies.
And BTW, I'm glad your cats joined you for the video 😄❤️
I'm not sure if somebody already commented that, but made-to-order companies do so to avoid any waste :) it's more sustainable and hits the individualist-heart when it comes to fashion
We loved cloth diapers!!! For extra protection at night, we loved the charcoal bamboo pads. Never had a leaky diaper at night with those and we only needed one pad per diaper.
I'm sure you're already doing this, but we didn't learn it until later on so I want to share it with other mamas. When you are putting on the diaper, make sure you are tucking the leg areas all the way into the leg crease! This will help with some leaky probables too. You want it to fit nice and snug like underwear ☺️
I LOVED cloth diapering my three babies. I used so many brands (even made my own!! which was cool), but my favorite way to diaper de-evolved to “trifold” and “fitted” organic cotton and bamboo cloth diapers from Green Mountain Diapers. They are just straight up old fashioned cotton diapers - the trifold you would fold and fasten into place, the fitted looks just like a diaper but it’s all cloth and you fasten it at the tabs. Then I’d used a Thirsties PUL cover over top. I’d fasten the cloth diapers with a “Snappi.” I used wool covers at night and sometimes during the day, and the Thirsties covers during the day. It is so old school but it was cheap and super effective and so stinking cute, especially the wool covers!! Never had any leaks. I highly recommend you check out these brands and this way of diapering. Oh! And this system so easy to launder. In fact, you can reuse the covers a couple times so long as they aren’t soiled. Just toss the cloth diaper into the bucket, replace with a fresh one and reuse the cover! I like pocket diapers but they start to smell over time whereas the cotton/bamboo cloth diapers and the covers never did, because there wasn’t a polyester lining between bum and absorbent pad, which is the stinky culprit! Lol! Using wool covers is a whole new world. You can reuse the cover over and over because wool doesn’t absorb smell and bacteria. You wash it every once in awhile with wool soap, lay flat to dry. I would toss my few wool covers into my laundry machine on the hand wash setting on the smallest load and let my machine do all the work.
Anyway, that was a lot. Sorry! I actually have some cloth diapering content on my old TH-cam channel you can check out.
I love cotton cloth diapers from Green Mountain Diapers plus wool covers! That's natural, plastic-free cloth diapering! 💜🧷 Heidi
@@ECpeesy as green as you can get! Loved it!
Green mountain is my favorite! Love their flats.
We started cloth diapers my son at 8 months old we spent $400 on our stash and he's now 3 and we still use them
And you probably wash them...which costs energy, water, detergent, etc.
Cloth diapers are great but this should not be forgotten.
@@stppnwlfn Very true! Everything we do has an impact...so we have to make smart choices when possible to *minimize* the impact because it's simply not possible to eliminate it.
For cloth wipes on the go I usually bring my little spray bottle and spray her bottom then wipe. You can literally spray water with a bit of coconut oil directly on and it works well! Hope that helps
That’s what I use!! And I add a little bit of baby dr bronners
Oh yes- I forgot to add that I use the un scented one! Don't know how I forgot that loll
I’ve cloth diapered my now 11 year old, my 5 year old, and am now expecting another ❤️ and I was searching for new nappies on the market as I love most of what we have, but as the majority we’re used when we bought them, we had to Chuck some due to the pul not being so great when we bought, but had to make due because of financial reasons (store them in a pillowcase then in a plastic tote and the PUL should be fine. We have 6 lil joeys that we bought used when I was pregnant for my last child and they are still like new!) but I wanted to see if there was anything else out there that I could replace ones I had to dispose of and stumbled on this video. I usually find it incredibly difficult to stay and watch a whole video because people like to talk to the camera as if they’re being interviewed, but I absolutely love your personality, you’re adorable and you know how to keep people interested in what you have to say! Kinda making me want to spend some money on a bum genius or 2 😂 I would like to add one thing though, washing new nappies 6 times isn’t always necessary. Apparently it’s better to do shorter uses between washes, so it still gets used between washes, but has the chance to get those extra washes sooner. I hope I explained that coherently 😅
I respect that you don't share your little babe on the internet, but boy do I ever wanna see this little cutie!!!! I'm sure he's the squishiest lovable guy ever!!
She has a few pictures of his face, including a beautiful picture in the birth pool, up on her Instagram
I've been cloth diapering for 3 years and have 2 babies in diapers! I love it! The only thing I don't like about these two brands are that Bumgenius uses microfiber, which is still plastic and both Bumgenius and Grovia elastics seem to stretch out faster than other brands. I loooove Lighthouse Kids Company, Smart Bottoms, and Thirsties though!
All of these (and all others) are made from plastic - that's how they can be waterproof ;)
@@inkas9286 nope, there are wool ones with lanolin to keep it waterproof.
I loved using cloth with my babies because we never ran out!! Just have to wash a load and you're good to go. No emergency runs to the store for diapers!
This!!! Love not having to spend money on disposables every month.
I love using cloth period pads for myself! It feels softer, I’m not wasting plastic, and it cleans easily in my opinion.
Where did you buy them?
Never knew about pulling the tabs up for the legs! We love noras nursery and bum genius the best.
Just wanted to say a newborn stash is so worth it! Our favorite are nickis newborn aio and believe me, I tried them all. You’re doing great mama!
Few tips/ important points: you can wash diapers together with other stuff since all the poop is already out in the pre wash, but it is important to also rinse once again in tbeend to get rid of any residue of detergent. Also it is important what the pads are made of: bamboo and hemp are the ones that soaks up more and microfibre soaks up faster, soit is good to pear the2
Cloth wipes out and about: It seems like a lot of people use the on-the-go wipe dispenser from Skip Hop or mini wet bags (like the clutch bag from Thirsties ) for storage. Also, I have heard that if you boil the water up front and pour it over the wipes, they remain ready-for-use for a couple of days. With the wipe dispenser you can even recreate the convenience of being able to just pull out one wipe after the other by folding the cloth wipes in half and then laying one half of the wipe into the next half-folded one... like a zig-zag. In order to find the most absorbent inserts and fitted diapers for nighttime I would recommend looking for absorbency lists online... usually Geffen Baby hemp products make it to the top of the list.

When we had our first we were in a tiny apartment and shared a simple washer with the whole floor for the first year. We found out our city had two companies that would drop off cloth diapers and pick up/clean the old ones every week! It was only slightly less money then traditional diapers, but worth it for all the waste we saved. We also kept it simple and would use disposables for long trips out of the house or traveling, both which we just didn't do often with our lifestyle. Worked like a dream.
My parents did this when Inwas growing up! It was fantastic.
Love this. All solid points. Cloth diapered my boys...one big tip!! Make sure your natural fiber cloth diapers don't get eaten by moths. In the summer I would hang the diapers in our house to dry. The moths then laid their larvae in the fibers of the diaper and ate the fabric. Once I started to catch on I put the diapers in the dryer to get rid of them but out came handfuls lint and a ruined stash. No sight of little larvae just a moth here and there.
I have cloth diapered for almost 3 years now and when we are out and about when I put a cloth diaper Into the diaper bag I also stuff a cloth wipe into the diaper so I have it right there to use and I bring a small little spray bottle with the solution. I also bought a travel wipes container and keep extra cloth wipes in that for extra messy changes!
I literally just wet some reusable wipes (or wash cloths) , put them into a reusable silicon snack bag and add some extra water to keep them moist. Voila, waste free wipes. Great for outdoor adventures as well!
Amazing thank you. We've ventured in Cloth nappies recently and I'm slightly obsessed 🙈 you may find you need to use 2 parters soon for night time as it's quite rare for a pocket nappy to last all night 😊
We've been using pockets overnight for 21 months. We stuff a 4-layer pure bamboo with a 4-layer hemp. It's quite trim for an overnight diaper too! :)
My favorite diapers when I cloth diapered my daughter was bumgenius and if I had to do it all over again I would have just gotten those instead of all the other ones I tried! Besides the newborn diapers since the bumgenius did not fit my newborn! My daughter is 11 so I used 2.0 bumgenius diapers! I loved using a diaper sprayer for solids! I also used country save to wash them. I used cloth wipes too and still use them for family cloth!
First: you are very sympathic😁 I also love the Govia diapers! You can put a face cloth between the inserts, fold it 2 or 3 times. It will stay dry all night😊.
For going outside, I always put some vipes with water and coconut oil in a box. Very simple!
For newborns: do you know the charlie banana diapers? They are sooo soft and the size can be changed up to end of diapering😁
Have a great day!
2nd baby and using cloth diapers this time. Just bought the GroVia buttah newborn AIO and the baby O.N.E cloth diapers, 28 of each! I got them from amazon, we can't get Bum genius delivered here in NZ. Have watched a few cloth diaper videos, and looked at a few websites and really liked the look and ease of the GroVia ones. Thanks for making this video, made my choice so much easier!
I also sun bleach my diapers and liners and it IS the best hack! It works for stain from solids too
Because u planing to change ur night time cloth diapers inserts I Recommend thirstiest prefold cotton and hemp and also booster cotton and hemp work amazing together and it’s not as bulky at night
I never pre soaked my cloth wipes. I just had two spray bottles of wipe solution and one always stayed in our diaper backpack, then bought a few extra wipes that also always stayed in our bag.
Our daughter was born in feb 2021.
I had cloth diapers on my registry but only one person was willing to get a pack for us. I got the rest w my stimulus money. We have 6 sets of 6. That is more than enough to change frequently and wash twice per week. I got pocket diapers and invested in extra absorbant bamboo soaker pads. We started around 6 weeks when we ran out of the disposable newborn diapers we were gifted. They have worked great and I swear that we haven't had any blow outs in the cloth but we constantly have them in the disposable ones. Yes you will need bigger sized clothing to accommodate the puffy butt from the cloth diapers.
For our reusable wipes, my sister gave me something like a little handmade bag. It's juste a small bag, made with a piece of cloth and two snap buttons.
I just have to put the "new" wipes inside when they're clean and dry.
Thank you for your video! I am using the Alva baby pocket diapers but looking into Grovia. Everything you said for why you love cloth diapers resonated with my soul lol. You’re a good mama!
Maybe try something other than microfiber inserts, Walmart has flour sack towels that work well overnight with microfiber underneath and less bulky
This is a good tip! FST are a great low cost way to boost a less than perfect insert.
For cloth diapering out and about I pack dry cloth wipes and a small spray bottle. Although washable and reusable, AIOs and pocket cloth diapers are made with a waterproof layer of plastic. Still much better than single use disposable diapers! 💜🧷 Heidi
We love blueberry simplex organic AIO for day and then we use petit lulu maxi night with a mother ease airflow wrap at night. Lasts 13 hours with no leaks!! Love love love the blueberry prints too. Highly recommend those as super easy to wash and wear. Medium to slow drying for blueberry and slow dry for petit lulu but that's the nature of the material and absorbancy!
You can bring a peri bottle filled with water and a stack of cloth wipes. Super easy and can be used at home too!
When i travel with my kids, i use reusable wipes! I used to use a swing top jar with pre wet wipes and just throw that in yge diaper bag. I have recently switched though to a spray i make with water, jojoba oil, and some essential oils, like tea tree, lavender and sometimes frankincense. And i put that in a spray bottle and take dry wipes with ne and just shake the bottle and spray that directly on baby's diaper area and wipe with a dry wipe! I like this new way better because the jojoba oil is soo good on their skin!
Hey! We are using cloth diapers from the beginning and I love it aswell! My baby is like half a year older than Cosmo I think. At the moment we are using disposable diapers for the night because the cloth diapers were always so full and leaking and I could not fit more stuffing in it..
And a Tip for out and about: I always have a wetbag ready with prestuffed diaper and some reusable wipes and I have always a water drinking bottle with me when I am outside. So when I need to use the wipes I make them wet with my drinking water and just put them in the wetbag with the diaper!
And I think I have an answer for the bumgenius working way.. I know other Brands who work like this aswell and they do it from sustainable reasons. Because they just produce exactly the products wich are wanted and needed! And dont overproduce wich is actualy great I think. Of course it takes longer for the customer but especialy in the cloth diaper game it make sense I think. Aswell with the reparing, so this exact diaper is not wasted. But I totaly get the point with "I dont have time".
Oh and hemp inlays can take much more Liquid but also because of this they need longer to dry.
Wishing you and everyone much fun with the diapers! 🤗
We cloth diaper too!!
I find that microfiber inserts aren't super great they absorb quickly but don't hold as much as bamboo or hemp. So i put a microfiber ontop and hemp on the bottom and that holds REALLY well even at night time and he's not quite as bulky. But i do put in an extra hemp or bamboo insert at night just so there's more "storage" 😅
Cloth diapers are awesome. I cloth diapered for three babies and if we have any more I’ll do it again. A few things- 1. Boys and girls fit differently. I had way more leak problems with my boy and I’m pretty sure that’s just anatomy. 2. Just recently found out that “flushable” diaper liners are not septic safe (😭). 3. Reusable wipes are soooooo easy, I spray the cloths as I use them (also amazing for going out! Pack dry wipes and a mini spry bottle with wipe solution) because I found they felt gross if they set in the solution for too long. 4. You do need to buy a separate set of newborn diapers. My babies are +8lbs when born and they stay in the newborn diapers for 3-4 months and then the all-in-ones fit just fine. 5. Oh and prefolds are a cheaper route to go if you have limited funds to start with and if you have absolutely NO money even old cotton t-shirts will do the trick. 6. Bonus- all of my kids potty train before they turn 2 and we accredit it to the cloth diapers because they can still feel when they poop or pee and let’s be honest- having wet cloth next on your bum even for a minute is not comfy and it’s a good motivator to use the potty 😉
Tip for cloth diapers: I had a special color of wipes and a travel sized sprayer and those were used for just the diaper bag.
I wasn’t vegan when my boys were clothes diapers so I used wool shorts 🩳 covers and it kept them dry at night with their cloth diapers. Not sure if there is a synthetic wool version but might be worth looking into because it was a huge game changer.
Skinny legged babies are so tricky to cloth diaper. Thankfully there are a lot more options then there were almost 14 years ago when I diapered my oldest who was/ is super skinny and LONG! So many blow outs! 🤦♀️
Hannah, I really like how you think things through. Your family is admirable...all of you!
And, cowardly people who are dissatisfied with their own lives like to hurt people they envy.
And, dear girl, with you, the nasty trolls have much TO ENVY.
Great reminder to put the diapers and inserts in the sun tomorrow. Our daughter has been potty trained for 1.5 years and at 45, no more kids. We have bum genius from 2015 and some earlier insert version. The 2015 version has built-in layers.
For cloth wipes on the go, we always have a bunch folded in the diaper bag already, and then use a small squeezy bottle full of water/wipe solution/what have you (we actually used the peri bottle the hospital gave us for postpartum mamas!) - easy peasy!
Yes to all of this!! Bum genius I agree like what the heck is the deal ?! I got 6 inserts to try and it took 12 weeks. Also I do not recommend spray pal just for future reference. Just use a bucket! Seriously . Don’t do it. Great video, please do a wash update after solids people really need to know a good wash routine, bc it was really frustrating trying to figure it out !
Mama Koala brand on Amazon is a very affordable option - less than $40 for 6 pocket cloth diapers, designed just like bumGenius 5.0. I got all pocket diapers so I could easily mix and match!
Agree to use bumGenius at night, especially when baby is older and rolls over onto their belly at night. The bumGenius has the waterproof lip on the front whereas other brands have cloth all the way up and caused leaks.
And I definitely think potty training was easier bc we cloth diapered!!
For night time we use charcoal inserts. They're super absorbent!
I also cloth diaper my baby since she was a month old. Its fun yet challenging. I spent around 70$ 15 of them are fitteds the others are pockets. I have 27 stash. ☺️ Others were gifts thats why i spent that much only. We saved so much money
Great video. For overnights you should try a fitted diaper with a thin hemp booster and that thirsties cover. That should stop your leak issues!
I have a cloth 101 video that I tried to cover every faq in but I literally could have made a 10 hour video🤣
Ps you can buy newborn cloth nappies, I used them for the first 12 weeks, gave them to two other friends to us and am going to be using them for the first 3 months again with my next baby :))
I have dabbled in cloth diapers on and off over the years (5 kids ages 3 to 18). When my youngest 2 were both in diapers I used cloth for them when we had financial difficulties. It was awesome. I only stopped because my older potty trained and the younger was too big (he was 42lbs at the time, currently 50lbs). If I had a cloth diaper that fit a large baby, I would have continued.
Love this! Thank you, I plan on using cloth diapers with my babies!
Onesie extenders! We had leaks when the nappy was squashed by the onesies so by adding a onesie extender it means baby can be in them for longer. We still change every 2/3 hours. Baby boy also! 💙
I also only use cloth nappies (UK) during the day. I haven’t tried them at night yet but maybe soon? Every little helps though! 😊
Oh wow, onsie extenders are a real thing? I was just saying that we needed them!
I'm new to the cloth nappy world and I'm a bit overwhelmed. There are many different types, many different things to know... I feel I need a 2 hour lesson to get my head around exactly what to do and how?? Idk. Anyway, I'm convinced I'm going to use cloth nappies no matter how much it costs me 😅
Thank you for this, so helpful to hear different perspectives with cloth diapering! I am due in September and I am planning to use disposable diapers until she is big enough for the cloth diapers. I decided to get a bunch of different brands to have some variety and see what works best. So far I have some bum genius that I found second hand, Noras nursery, thirsties and grovia. I definitely need to buy some extra inserts for night time and I’ve heard hemp is best for absorbency? Love to hear any tips and opinions!
Hey! Where I live there is a shop wich is specialized in cloth diapers and they have the Option to rent the newborn Size diapers from different Brands. They are packing a Box full of everything needed for the first 2-3 month and so u can figure out wich System and Brand fits you and your baby best! Maybe you also have this Option?
Hemp is the most absorbent but best to pair with something that's a fast absorber, like cotton or bamboo. Most hemp inserts are blended with some cotton - so look for that! :)
You can either have your wipes wet n ready to use or you can always have a little spray bottle n wipes in your diaper bag
Can someone explain it to me why using microfibre and polyester is any better on baby’s skin vs regular plastic diapers? Why not use hemp/bamboo/cotton for cloth diapers?
Companies that are "made to order" ensure less waste will be made because each item that they make has already been bought and paid for by a customer. No unnecessary excess will be made.. at least that's my understanding
100% recomend toilet sprayer for the solid food poop !
Yes I agree
I make my own wipe solution and pour it over some wipes and store them in a reusable container to keep at his changing station. If I’m packing his bag for the sitter I’ll put a small spray bottle of it in the bag and have them wet the wipe with plain water but if I’m going somewhere actually out and about, I’ll just put a few wipes in a reusable baggie and have my spray bottle handy for some extra liquid if needed.
I used natties. Organic. Very nice and cheap. £8/10 for a huge tall pack.
It's worth checking out the Clean Cloth Nappies website. Your routine looks pretty good. But you want to make sure your prewash is at least one hour. And you should be filling your machine with other small items for your mainwash to make sure that your washing machine is loaded correctly for proper agitation. There's lots of other important info on their website too :)
Also forgot to add I have medium hard water and the microfiber inserts got stinky pretty quick so I used a yellow edge prefold from green mountain diapers to stuff my bumgenius diapers and that worked great!
You can use a tupper box to transport reusable wet wipes on the go. I prefer them 100% over disposable ones cause they are so much thicker. Little disclaimer (not sure if you are aware): cloth diapers are made from plastic, otherwise they would not be leak proof so it's a bit misleading saying "you don't want your baby in plastic" ;)
I bought Bumgenius second-hand and I think that I would’ve had a better experience if I bought them new. I didn’t like them because my baby was pretty chubby at that time and the crotch was a tad too thick for his thighs. I loved some of their prints though and I never experienced leaks either. I’m interested in Grovia one buttah for the newborn stage (currently expecting).
You might want to invest in some hemp inserts or flats to stuff your bum genius pockets or your Thirties cover, especially for night time. They are the most trim and absorbent insert, they will make a huge difference. I don’t know why companies still use microfiber (which is plastic)
Thirsties has great inserts :)
I personnaly use for my son for 3 years pocket diaper but with 2 opening so it mean in the washer the insert come out by their own. The openings are in the front and in the back. Best thing ever, the two brand I know who do that model are la petite ourse ( canadian brand) and happy flute.
Wet wipes: I use a wipe case and bring solution!
maybe get another wet bag that is specifically for wet wipes so you can have some for on the go?
GroVIA ONE diapers are fantastic for nighttime
GroVia night time works for my baby boy he’s 1 1/2 ☺️
How did you get Cosmo to sleep throughout the night??? My baby is 6 months and I need some advice to start having him sleep through the night.
I loved this video! We cloth diaper with the same brands! I used newborn cloth diapers this time around with baby number two and loved it! I agree about the whole putting plastic on your new baby just being... weird? Lol. Yay cloth diapers! ♥️
I use cloth nappies too but I'm so curious about the plastic thing? We personally use cloth to reduce waste and obviously different people will have different reasons but... you do realise the waterproof layer on those brands is plastic, right? The fabric is coated with a super thin layer of plastic. So your baby is still using a plastic nappy. If you don't want them in plastic, wool covers over fitteds or flats are a great option!
Prince in the background is a vibe
Made to order business models save massive amounts of money because they don't have to transport or store products before it's sold. I agree that it's annoying though.
Cotton babies (who makes bumgenius) has changed so much over the years! They used to have tons of diapers and they flew off the shelves! They have slowed down quite a bit. They are still my favorite for fit but I love switching out the inserts to the thirsties inserts (cotton doublers and the hemp inserts). They are not microfiber like the ones that bumgenuis comes with plus the thirsties are super absorbent! And just a tip: the bumgenuis don't need to be washed 6 times before use since they are synthetic materials (the microfiber inserts and the micro suede) . Only the natural fiber ones (cotton, hemp, bamboo) need to be washed 6 times because of the oils from the natural fibers.
Do you wash the diapers as well or just the inserts?
No offense, but since I have been using Bungenius for quite a while I have some things to point out: you dont need to wash microfiber diapers like Bumgenius pockets 6 times, one is enough (check out the label ;)), also, they have AIOs, not only pockets could have mentioned that as well. And the small inserts is for newborns only..
It could be me and my inefficient research skills, but I’m having a hard time finding a rash cream that is compatible with cloth diapers AND is vegan. If anyone has good suggestions I’m all open!
Coconut oil
If Earth Mama is vegan, it is CD safe!
Babyléna
Any rash cream can be used with cloth nappies as long as you are washing them properly. Check out Clean Cloth Nappies website - it’s an amazing resource.
Thanks everyone for your help!! :)
Omg I’m bad lol. I just throw ours in the wash with the inserts still inside the pocket diapers and let the washing machine agitate them out 🤪
I do this for the prewash and then remove any that didn't get agitated out before starting the full wash. I used to remove the inserts before the prewash... Until I then had two toddlers who were totally on solids in cloth diapers. 🥴😅
@@idepartasair same! It irks me when a some ball up inside so I also remove those after the prewash. Then I add baby clothes and some smaller sizes items of the rest of the family’s in the mainwash to bulk. 2-in-1 deal lol
I was all set to love cloth diapers but actually, it didn't work for us at all - having the washing machine on for 4hrs/day every other day actually cost us more than buying a big pack of disposables that'd last us a week.
Glad it's working out for you though :)
Off topic: your cats are beautiful!!! 😁
I was thinking earlier today “I need to watch a video about cloth diapers” and then this popped up on my feed! So helpful and fun as usual! Thanks Hannah!
That cat was really going at it the entire video 😅
Just put wipes in a reusable container or bag
The poop sprayer didn't work for us. We got flushable diaper liners, and just flushed the poop away.
Sorry for the unsolicited advice but we recently had our septic tank checked and the guy said the liners were no bueno. Which is supper unhandy because I loved using the liners.
@@emilyacevedo4746 I'm sorry that happened. We had ours checked and there was no issue. Maybe different brands are better. I really don't know.
@@sarahc4194 that’s wonderful to hear! Would you mind telling me what brand you used? My youngest Is out of diapers but my husband and I are discussing another baby.
@@emilyacevedo4746 I think the brand was blue snail.
Mother ease makes an amazing night time diaper that does not leak And is wonderful... I have been cloth diapering since 2001
I think women that work outside of the house and have a one child care taker or are in day care it is not possible for those women to cloth diaper even if they want to do cloth diapers good video
Nope if absaloutly still is possible to do cloth even with childcare or daycare
If I got it correctly, their business model is to produce only after they got the order to avoid overproduction, which is more sustainable. However, if it's a big company and they have so many customers they don't need to do that I think, they'll find someone to sell it to.
Did you get another cat? So cute!
Also it’s crazy to think I save 280 diapers from landfill every month.
I need one I had an accident 🥴
I would consider using them but I just can't with the whole poop touching thing ik it just poop but I just can't!
I felt the same way, but having a baby really increased my tolerance for gross things. You'll touch poop either way, if I'm honest. Just don't count yourself out. They're worth a try 🙂 if you can't do it, give them away.
You can also check out Elimination Communication which can reduce or eliminate the amount of poop you have to deal with (in the diaper*, you obviously have to deal with poop in some way)! I find it really connecting too :)
It exist two opening pocket diaper and you dont have to touch the cloth diaper more than i disposable one.
24$ for one is really expensive.
I bought used and ended up spending around £100 for my full 30 one size and £125 for my 40 newborn
Cute cat
Totally unrelated to diapers, is your skin tag on your inner eye growing back Hannah
Or she filmed this before she got it removed
6 times wasching before?? Ajja no way. One time and than used them.
The 6 times is the max for absorbancy
Estás tan guapa!!! Me ha gustado mucho este vídeo.
I learned that the microfibers of some clothing can end up in the ocean anyway and damage the ocean, earth and animals. Yes I know there are hemp or organic clothing but you really need a lot of money to afford organic cloth diapers and be 100% vegan (or care for the earth to the fullest extent)......after that vegan anywhere video, Im surprised at how easy you speak on these things. Or maybe I need to understand your channel is intended for vegans who have the money to do these things (example: use a lot of water and wash the diapers 6 times before even using it). I don't think many of us will ever be able to be truly vegan even if we really wanted to.......
Everything you need to know about cloth diapers… go buy disposable lol
As someone who uses cloth I’ve actually had more issues with disposable in terms of my skin and baby’s skin
