More and more moms are looking towards cloth diapering options to save money and our earth. Cloth diapers have become more accessible and easier to use. They have been redesigned from folded squares and safety pins to trendy patterns and snaps. There are several options on the market currently: g diaper, bumgenius, fuzzibunz, and many more... The cost savings is worth looking into; an average $0.35 disposable diaper could yield $2500 in diapers from birth to potty training whereas, cloth diaper approximately $480 including the water to wash them. By using cloth diapers, you also save the landfills from the lifetimes waiting for decomposition.
If total cloth diapering is a leap for you, I would suggest cloth diapering at home and using disposable diapers on the go. But do your research to find out which diaper works best for you and your lifestyle. If you are in the DC area, there is a free resource for moms interested in learning about cloth diapers and baby wearing (email me directly for more information).
Encourage other moms by posting your experience with cloth or transition diapers.
