cloth diapers

I’m collecting for our little one due in February! I think I have everything I intend for the first 6 months or so. Anything I’m missing?? Obviously, size 2 Thirsties and baby wipes are needed yet. Input appreciated :-)! -newborn prefolds (12) -newborn workhorse (4) -newborn all in one (22)...

Did you have to buy newborn cloth diapers or was there a brand you could use from NB up? How many NB cloth diapers do you recommend? How long did they last you for until you transitioned to cloth diapers for 8+ pounds? Also, FTM Q-why do many parents use disposables at night? Is it harder using...

New to cloth diapering and I’m out of ideas. Help! I’m using Nora’s Nursery pockets with bamboo inserts. Leaks are around legs. Baby is 12MO. We get leaks during the day (single insert) and at night (double insert). Washing routine: cold rinse, hot deep water wash w/ extra rinse. Borax in...

Is there a drawback to getting something like this package...

TLDR: is there anything about my wash routine you would change, it’s working for us but I’m anxious and doubting myself. We have been CDing for about a month now. Pockets during the day and a GMD workhorse + hemp booster with a cover overnight. We are loving it so far. Our current wash routine...

I have MK 1.0 and they’re good. I want to switch to AWJ with my 3rd baby. I just want to know if anyone has used either or with their babies and how well it worked. Thank you in advance!

My son’s diaper leaked from the middle of the butt at nap time today, and I tested a few other diapers and discovered that a bunch have PUL deterioration at the legs and the butt. Frustrated AF - I just checked and realized my hot wash is WAY too hot for PUL. I’m sure I did this to myself and...

Hi! What brand of newborn prefolds do you recommend to go under a newborn cover? I bought some used (unsure of brand) and they don’t fit our baby. They are 10.5 x 9 prepped and the 9 is way too small to fit around her waist. The small sizes I got are way too big and long. She is 3 weeks and...

I am switching my 7 month old daughter from breastmilk to formula and solids and (as the title says) OMG poop! I used to just throw the bm poop in the washer and it magically disappeared. So far no problems getting diaps clean, but i am not satisfied with my current method (spatula the mess...

I haven’t seen a post on this for awhile so I thought I’d ask. Now that’s it’s been a couple months since the powder was discontinued what have people been using with success? I’ve been using Tide liquid sensitive and free and it was doing ok until my washer started smelling today. I’d really...

I just posted my wash routine in another post earlier but I’ll post it here again. My wash routine is as follows: Wash 1: “whitest whites” mode, warm, heavy soil, normal spin, tide F&G powder line 1 Wash 2: “heavy duty” mode, hot, heavy soil, high spin, tide F&G powder line 3 My water...

In case it matters, I just bought [these LBB pocket diapers](LBB Baby Reusable Cloth Diapers with adjustable snapps fit Girls/Boys,6pcs Pack£¬White Chrysanthemum https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MVSNGJG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_zCpTxbK67NNXF). They came with these [Alva Baby bamboo inserts](Alva Baby...

These are amazing. I ordered three and am so impressed. Just had to share with a community that understands. I told my husband and he didn’t get it 😆 https://etsy.me/3wpceZL

I just got a set of wool covers for my baby and am excited to try them out! I lanolized using modified lanolin (I think this process removes smells and changes the color- not sure if it makes a difference when lanolizing). The covers have dried out and they feel, well, lanolin-y. It feels...

Hello all. I am a FTM to 4 month old (3 months adjusted) identical twin girls. We have been using esembly exclusively since they got home from the NICU 3 months ago and we have absolutely loved them. However, suddenly about a week ago, our slightly bigger baby “P” started springing a leak...

So I’ve been on this sub a while and I enjoy it. But sometimes people will say stuff I feel like there speaking another language. Not sure if it’s my lack of cloth nappy knowledge or the majority of this sun being from the US so they have completely different products. Some of the things I’m...

here’s the stash! Reposted as I posted late at night a few days ago and got no traction. Trying again! Warning - long post asking for a lot of help! I bought a pretty large stash of mostly prefolds and some random inserts for $40… couldn’t pass up the deal! This isn’t even what the original...

Completely new to cloth diapering, though as soon as I knew it was a thing I was in. Not very common here in Ireland, no one I know does it (although my own mum did try back when I was a babe), so no luck with getting a second hand stash, so I had to go all new, plus it cost a bit extra with all...

Hi everyone, I’d love some advice. FTM expecting in January and trying to pick up a variety of used cloth diapers to try so I can figure out what brands/fit work for us. I’m considering a used cloth diaper lot that contains the following for $50 CDN. Is this a good deal or should I pass? 16...

I just started using our cloth diapers on my five week old. I’m using the pocket diapers with the absorber pad thing they came with (microfiber? I think?) sorry, I don’t know all of the abbreviations that everyone uses on this page! She wakes up completely soaked. Like through the diaper...
