I never thought I would attempt cloth diapers in my whole entire life. Yes, I always laugh hysterically when a mom tells me they are going to use cloth diapers. I'm now recanting and apologizing. (Although I still think cloth diapers and young infants is a really bad combo.)
And I am utterly refusing to buy another box of diapers. (I will probably recant that statement too.)
But after buying diapers for a consecutive 38 months I just can't do it anymore. So I invested $60 yesterday in 3 Bum Genius diapers. That is less than the cost of 2 more boxes of diapers at Sam's and if we have more children then they will dutifully serve again. I am hoping that they will spur Hayden to use the potty a little more because they don't feel quite as nice when they are completely full.
Can I also say that they are ridiculously cute. This also helped in my decision. I opted for Moonbeam, Butternut, and Ribbit. But there were several other contenders.
The most difficult part was actually deciding between the Bum Genius and the Fuzzi Bunz. The Bum Genius is a one-size-fits-all adjustable diaper and the Fuzzi Bunz come in xsmall, small, medium, and large. I am buying cloth diapers because I don't want to buy anything else ever again so I went with the one-size-fits-all. They have snaps that allow you to adjust the diaper to fit your growing baby. Genius I tell you! Haha. Here is a diagram just for you.
Hopefully Hayden will continue giving me his poo signs and I can avoid as much of that stuff as possible. And if I like them well enough I will probably need to order a couple more. I will keep you posted!
Ooooh, can't wait to hear how you like them!!
ReplyDeleteGood for you! We have been using the Fuzzi Bunz for a while. They also have a one size diaper with snaps and it has been great for us. Took me a little while to get used to changing the poopies but has already saved a ton of money.
