@@soniasawyer477 just curios how is this cheaper? I mean you have to pay for water and energie.... I do not know how much diapers costs in the us but in my country even the brand name "pampers" are not that expensive. A big bag with 84 diapers is about 10 euro
Quite honestly a lot of this makes sense, some of it may not work for those who love convenience and or just don't have a ton of time, but I could see people using at least some of this when they have kids.
Gustavo Villar I know a mom with quadruplets. Disposable diapers were a lifesaver for her while they were younger (0 to 12 month) but she tried cloth diapers at first to save money. Issue was that a lot of daycares won’t use cloth diapers and the convenience outweighed the amount of prep she had to do for 4 little ones. Now that the babies are a little bit older, she’s back on cloth diapers because they don’t soil themselves as often. She also makes her own baby food. But with multiples, sometimes convenience wins.
Just in general, we as a society should learn how to not purchase excessive things that we don’t really need. I’m kinda glad minimalism is a trend right now, although I will say that I don’t identify myself as a “waste free” advocate or minimalist per se, the ideology behind it is selfless and admirable.
love the very discrete diss towards lauren singer, it frustrates me how so many popular zero wasters try to minimize the concept of zero waste to being about trash jars but I love sara and I’m so happy she gets to share her lifestyle with us
My sister and I were cloth diaper babies. Like a literal cloth, not these fancy cloth diapers in the video. My mom grew up on a farm with 6 siblings and that's what she knew to do. she doesn't get why people spend so much on diapers.
My mom grew up super poor in Mexico; she grew up with cloth diapers as well. A lot of zero waste habits are normal to us since that's just how we lived for so long and that's what we're comfortable with. The US was definitely a shock for my mom and even me once I grew up and started taking care of myself, e.g. disposable period products and their insane cost. I use good old cotton pads and a good Mexican soap bar for stains and they work great!😊
I mean to be fair back in the day all babies were "zero waste". Disposable diapers didn't exist for a long time. Same with baby bottles 🤔 if the mother wasn't around to breastfeed the child they would usually call a wet nurse.
Miss_Kisa94 not true. They'd also make odd mixes of foods to make formula, resulting in a TON of baby deaths and life long, permanent issues from malnourishment.
@@corablah9809 I think we might be thinking about different time periods. My mind was in the middle ages. I'm pretty sure the idea of formula didn't really exist back then.
Yeah also like the thing to use wet wipes to clean your baby seems so american to me. 😂😂 just hold the baby butt under the running water and wash it. That's faster and cleaner than any wiping could ever be. That's how they teach it to parents in the hospital here too.
For when she starts eating baby food highly recommend making your own. You can buy a machine (there are probably some on amazon) or just use a blender. My mom made her own baby food (for triplets) and she was able to introduce to me and my brothers new and healthy foods (that didn’t have added preservatives or sugar).
The major problem with zero waste is that most supermarkets have long since transitioned into a plastic packaging standard (which is literally poisoning us, our environment, and animals). The only supermarket I have seen near me which allows you to bring your own home containers and fill them up with unpackaged foods is Lucky's Market, and this is in a city where there are at least 8 or more supermarket chains near me. Another issue is that you can't always trust Farmer's Markets. Firstly, not only can they be more expensive than grocery store food, but there are scum that will buy food from supermarkets, "unwrap" them, then sell them for a higher price at a Farmer's Market. It's very difficult to be zero waste, and it'll continue to be like that until SOMETHING changes.
I tried using cloth diapers when my oldest daughter was born. It didn't work out since we lived in an apartment we didn't have our own washer. I ended up spending over $2 a day just washing cloth diapers alone. That adds up after a while. So we started using disposable diapers after a while.
Making baby food is the simplest way to be zero waste with a baby! Cloth diapers/wipes are great as well. I made all of my son's food and it was so simple! You just boil everything you want in water and then strain the food solids out. You use the stock from what you boiled to break down anything too thick for your blender. Use ice cube trays to freeze your baby food and then store it in ziploc bags. It's usually good for 6 months! Just throw in a pot and go. You can use rice cereal or oatmeal cereal later, both are able to be made at home. I appreciate the honesty in this video 😍
This is awesome! I would love to do this when I eventually have my own kids. Would save money and be better for the environment. I feel like more people are becoming more conscious about single use items and leaning more towards reusable ones, which is so cool to see 😊
I used cloth diapers with my kids 30/27years ago and it was so much easier! Mine did up with Velcro fastenings and had an hour glass shaped cotton liner to help control the poops. The liners were easier to wash . The diapers went into a hot wash once a week and I never had to worry about running out. I admit, I did use rubber gloves to deal with any ick factor. I also used glass bottles when I wasn’t breast feeding. They went straight into the dishwasher. I love the knitted wool soaker that she has one her wee one.
Theres so many varieties of cloth diapers too! Theres some that mimic disposables in the sense that they are all one piece, called an all-in-one. There's pockets, diaper covers, so many!
I admire people who are zero waste. I really try to be, but it’s not something I’m particularly capable of at the moment. I try to be a zero waste as possible, if I bring my own snacks to work or somewhere I use containers versus plastic bags, I reuse plastic silverware, and I’ve invested in quite a few water bottles and travel cups. Even at work I try to use as little plastic bags for customers as possible. Instead of giving them a bag for ONE or two little things, I always ask if they want one. It’s not a lot, but it’s something.
Where i'm from disposable dippers only showed up 20-30 years ago. Before that they used fabric sheets and wrapped them around a baby in a special way. I remember one time my grandma was babysitting my niece and couldnt figure out how to use disposible ones, so she just put her in one of those and it worked the same.
As a mama who cloth diapered both kids I love this. My eldest and I have done beach clean ups and encourage leaving a bigger foot print on the planet. To the mama if your baby wants to be held educate in baby wearing for hands free :) baby is close to mama, and mama has hands free to clean or whatever. Win win!
I was a zero waste baby and then I had ny own and my mum obliged me to have that life style which i hated cuz the amount of landry i had to do by hand. My baby was cloth diapered and for now just uses one disponsable at night. It is hard when you arent into it but if you like it , it is worth it
Thank you buzzfeed for not only showing a woman breastfeeding but doing it with no attention drawn to it or away from it. Because breastfeeding is not something shameful that needs to be hidden, neither is it something scandalous that needs attention drawn to it.
My mom used only cloth diapers for my younger sisters and myself (born in 84,86, and 92) and I used them part time on my daughter born in 99. Not at all as bad as people assume.
Thank you. I’m trying to be zero waste and this is so honest and helps me feel less intimidated. I also appreciate this because I want to have children but cloth diapers seem really intimidating. This really helps
Look into baby led weaning. Then you can feed baby just what you eat, or get a handheld blender and reuseable silicone cube trays and you can get reuseable pouches to fill yourself for easy feeding when out and about x
RV Menagerie great choice. Make sure you enjoy the process and don’t put too much pressure on yourself to start with cloth right away. There is so much to learn when you bring home a baby, and once you get into the swing of it, using cloth nappies easily fits into the routine of the day but it can be a bit to get your head around to start off with. Have fun with it, and don’t be afraid to use a combination of disposables/ cloth nappies if that suits you as well. It’s not all or nothing! Every bit helps the environment.
I admire her work to use reusable diapers. I tried it with my newborn baby for 1 day & i gave up. Cos newborn babies pee like every 15 mins. Its really hard work to keep changing cloth diaper that often. If i dont change it, baby will be super fussy. Even with disposable diaper, i still have to change every hour. The washing is easy though. And its easier when baby is older, like 6 months old. I salute u lady
What you are doing is so good and using reusable diapers are so smart, but one question...... is it not bad to use the washing machine too much to? Sorry for the bad english😬
Aa Fu yes I was actually thinking the same. BUT using a bit more electricity and water for extra rounds of laundry doesn’t come close to the water and electricity that is used in the process of making the diapers and wipes PLUS the plastic waste that will be left on the planet for thousands of years
It depends on how efficient the washer and household is, but the two forms of waste can be debated and compared. The more efficient the washer and green the power source, the less taxing. When compared to the astronomical waste problem disposable diapers create, though, it can be argued that even running a crappy washer like a fiend still carries less of a footprint than disposables.
Your baby is beautiful thank you for sharing this part of your life. I have been thinking about zero waste diapers and honestly you showed me that it is possible!
Haha, my mom was telling me how she raised me with cloth diapers back in 1992 😆😂👍🏻 personally, i cannot imagine doing that, myself, with my babies.... 😁 koodos to this lady! Ps: that baby is such a quite cute baby girl! 🤭❤️😂 babies are not so calm usually...😁
I was home-schooled, son of a devout priest(Church twice a day and bible study during any free time ), raised zero waste, vegan(sugar and salt free), gender and race neutral.
Awww, you guys. For Real tho, she is so perfect she's a little Angel. Yours outs really giving mage baby fever. I'm 25 now and, I used to say I'll wait until around 35...now I'm like I could really have one in the next 5 years.
I still don’t know how to do cloth diapers. She just tossed them right in so I assume she washed all diapers immediately after use in the bidet (which no one I know has) and then tossed in the wet bag? I don’t know. This is still overwhelming & confusing, but I’d love to know more.
Cloth diapering is so easy! The bidet sprayers are $20 online and you just rinse dirty diapers and put them in a wet bag until wash day. You use a good, strong detergent and water softeners if needed and wash them on the maximum power cycle TWICE, using detergent both times. They come out fresh and clean!
SJOW thanks for the info, but i just wish they’d do a companion video that offered an approachable step by step. Like okay we’re listening, but don’t have the tools to take action. Like what types of bidets are recommended for this purpose, I wouldn’t know where to buy the diapers, how to put them on, what to pin them with (pins & baby’s don’t seem like a good combo) etc.
My Pakistani grandmother said most babies during her time would be potty trained completely by the time they able to sit day and night. That’s still an infant and most babies nowadays don’t get potty trained till they’re toddlers maybe things being easier make it harder for you in the long run.
My mom actually did this, but the less fancy way when me and my brothers were young but for different reasons, it was cause my country was at war and resources were very limited so it was hard to even have access to diapers let alone bags and bags of them on the daily. And honestly I think I will do the same when I have Children. plus its less money that goes straight to the trashcan.
Thank you! Thank you for acknowledging that not everyone can go to super extremes in waste reduction but still commends those that try as much as they can, because honestly, there are so many products we use in our daily lives that aren't environmentally friendly and not all of us can have the time and money to not only research but to invest in the more eco-friendly alternative. But the cloth diaper thing doesn't seem as gross as I initially thought now that I see her demonstrating it. I mean you're already having to deal with a yucky diaper whether it's disposable or not anyway, so the rinsing part can't be that much worse lol
Tell me how I can have a calm baby like yours. Even when she is fussing she is so quiet. My babes lets the whole building know when he is hungry, needs attention, wants something , you name it
Rubber pants are a thing of the past. The wool replaces rubber pants, but there are modern cloth diapers called "pocket" diapers that come in cute prints, have a waterproof layer and are soft on the inside. You stuff the pocket with an absorbent insert. My mom (who cloth diapered in the 80s and 90s) was astonished when I showed her my modern cloth diapers. 😂
I guess my issue with this method is not only do washing machines use a lot of energy and water, but I'd assume you'd need a lot of wipes, nappies e.c. so where does the fabric waste go when she's potty trained? (Not criticising, genuinely asking opinions 🙂)
It's not really 'waste' if the water is being used purposefully. Letting the water run while brushing your teeth is waste. As water is renewable (since it recycles itself) is a better option, in comparison to the damage and waste created by the disposable diapers that accumulate in landfills. Did you know they can still be viewed by the naked eye even after 250+ years? During that time, a ton of water can naturally filter through the ecosystem and replenish itself😊
You’d be doing laundry that often with disposables too. Blowouts happen so much with disposables you have to wash poopy outfits a lot. I’d rather use cloth and have the poop stay contained
I really like the mom. She is very relatable and down to earth. She talks about zero waste without sounding pretentious at all.
The baby is zero waste but is completely cute and adorable

Thank you for acknowledging that not everyone can go to super extremes in waste reduction but still commends those that try as much as they can, because honestly, there are so many products we use in our daily lives that aren't environmentally friendly and not all of us can have the time and money to not only research but to invest in the more eco-friendly alternative. But the cloth diaper thing doesn't seem as gross as I initially thought now that I see her demonstrating it. I mean you're already having to deal with a yucky diaper whether it's disposable or not anyway, so the rinsing part can't be that much worse lol
Thought this was Rie😂Oops
LMAOOOO
Pei Lin Lu well she cud be a zero waste mom now
SUCH A CUTE BABYYYYY
*next video* “I’m zero waste because I was never born”
Tell me how I can have a calm baby like yours. Even when she is fussing she is so quiet. My babes lets the whole building know when he is hungry, needs attention, wants something , you name it
This is so inspirational and beautiful
Her Baby is so cute! 😍
What brand and what are all the attachments use for her diapers?
My mom told me if I used cloth diapers I had to put my baby in rubber pants as well. Does the wool work as well as rubber pants?
Rubber pants are a thing of the past. The wool replaces rubber pants, but there are modern cloth diapers called "pocket" diapers that come in cute prints, have a waterproof layer and are soft on the inside. You stuff the pocket with an absorbent insert. My mom (who cloth diapered in the 80s and 90s) was astonished when I showed her my modern cloth diapers. 😂
1:40 the baby hit that woah
The amount of money you save on diapers 🤩
We cloth diaper and its amazing!! Its actually convenient for me and costs me less since I'm not buying a pack of diapers a week anymore.
Wow imagine everyone was like that that would be amazing
I love this! I want to do this as well what an inspiration 💛
I guess my issue with this method is not only do washing machines use a lot of energy and water, but I'd assume you'd need a lot of wipes, nappies e.c. so where does the fabric waste go when she's potty trained? (Not criticising, genuinely asking opinions 🙂)
That baby is sooooo cute and precious
That baby is so cute.
LOVED everything about this
you are amazing. we need more people like you.
Finally! A Bob's straw. Whenever u make boba I have to use individually plastic wrapped straws. This'll save the environment, my money, and time.
How does she wash her cloth without soap? how does she remove stains? You can soak it yes but it does not remove all stains
Does anyone know what brand of diapers she used?
legends say that the baby is zero waste
Her baby is so cute. I love babies in videos more than I like cats in videos.
Sorry but that baby is actually the cutest baby I have ever seen
Baby is a cutie! Seems like a lot of water waste using the washing machine for just diapers every other day.
It's not really 'waste' if the water is being used purposefully. Letting the water run while brushing your teeth is waste. As water is renewable (since it recycles itself) is a better option, in comparison to the damage and waste created by the disposable diapers that accumulate in landfills. Did you know they can still be viewed by the naked eye even after 250+ years? During that time, a ton of water can naturally filter through the ecosystem and replenish itself😊
You’d be doing laundry that often with disposables too. Blowouts happen so much with disposables you have to wash poopy outfits a lot. I’d rather use cloth and have the poop stay contained
1:40 did.....did that baby just hit the woah?!?!
Her baby is so cute
