Hello! My 6yo daughter has been having a lot of overnight accidents lately. I am 33 weeks pregnant and think it's related... She is going on a 2 night overnight with her school in a couple of weeks and I'm wanting to send her with some cloth pull ups so she doesn't pee in her sleeping bag night...

Before I delivered I had all the intentions to use cloth. I got everything I needed. I was planning on using Prefolds and fitteds with a mix off wool and regular covers. I ended up having some very severe complications postpartum and was in and out of the icu for the first 6 weeks. My baby is...

We are getting more leaks, and probably (some of) our PUL covers are at the end of their life. Does anyone have a good method of testing which ones are still holding up and which are leaking?

so I've decided to try out Tide F and G after asking all of you wonderful people. I've been using Charlie's soap for about 6/7 months now with zero issues regarding smells or absorbency, rashes and whatnot, but the tide is a lot cheaper and I wanted to switch to avoid any mineral build up...

I hope this type of curious post is allowed! I had my first baby 4 months ago. I’m an environmentalist so before she was born I put together my stash, eager to cloth diaper. Then she was born and her skinny bum didn’t fit her cloth stash, so we used disposables. She’s only now fitting into the...

I cannot figure out why my cloth diapers are giving my baby a rash. It goes away in disposables. They are freshly stripped and bleached, I followed fluff love u’s directions perfectly. The bleach is new. I just tried putting her back in cloth and the same rash came back. We’ve been using them...

So, I discovered we had a ton of detergent buildup due to using too much and also our washer probably never getting cleaned before we moved into this apartment. I did a bunch of empty, no detergent cycles in our washer with some vinegar, then I used Affresh. Then I did probably like 8 hot rinse...

I am going to try my hand at fixing the elastics in some BumGenius diapers and would love to hear from people who have done it before. I am wondering if I should first do the no-sew way and get the last of the life out of the current elastic before doing a full replacement. For those who have...

My 4 month old has been in cloth pretty much since we got home from the hospital and it's generally been going great. Usually we wake him up for one feed in the middle of the night, and at that time we change his diaper. Last night for various reasons we decided not to wake him up, and to let...

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...

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...

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...

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...

My daughter is currently 7.5 months old and has been in Kangacare Rumparooz since she was 2 weeks old with absolutely no issues. In the last month she's been getting deep red indents and now a rash. I feel like my fit is good and in her thigh creases. I have stripped and sanitized all of my...

Hello all! I'm a ftm due in a month or less and I recently got tubs full of secondhand cloth diapers and I had a couple of questions. What's the best way to wash/store all of them? I have a bunch of kissaluv size 0 and was wondering what's a good outer for them? What's the best detergent...

Yet another insert identification post! I tried identifying some of these by searching through prior posts, but they all look so similar. And some of the more distinct ones I also couldn't find. Prefolds - Not sure what brand these are. More prefolds. I think these ones are Cloth-eez Prefolds...

Wondering if other people bulk up their high efficiency washers when washing diapers? I have the whirlpool high efficiency cabrio machine that has a low profile agitator. Every 2 to 3 days I wash about 25 pocket diapers with inserts. Machine is maybe half full? Cold water rinse then heavy duty...
