| My husband and I are looking into using cloth diapers and I was wondering which kind you think is the best? We like the convenience of disposable diapers but we like the thought of using a more natural way. We also want to have a large family and we would like a diaper we could use with more than one child!
One of our most popular diapers is the bumGenius one size pocket diaper (http://nickisdiapers.com/catalog.php?category=91). It fits babies from 8-35 lbs. Since this diaper is used on one child for the whole duration of diapering it may not make it to the next child however you will save tons of money on that one child! This is a pocket diaper meaning that it has a waterproof outer material, stay dry suede cloth that pulls wetness away from baby's skin keeping baby feeling dry and a pocket opening to put an absorbent insert into.
If you didn't want to go with a one size diaper and did want your diapers to last for the next child you could try the Thirsties All In One diaper (http://nickisdiapers.com/catalog.php?category=289) which has the absorbency layer sewn in plus has a pocket if you wanted to add extra absorbency. This diaper also has a stay dry lining that pulls wetness away from baby's skin. This is a sized diaper so you would need to purchase the appropriate size as your baby grows but should last through another child as each size will be worn for a shorter period of time as they will out grow them.
If you like the all in one diaper but wanted a natural fiber (such as cotton) touching your baby's skin instead of a synthetic material like the other diapers mentioned, I would suggest the SposoEasy AIO (http://nickisdiapers.com/catalog.php?category=613). It is easy to use, fast drying, and very popular. |
