Today is going to be the first time to use cloth diapers. I know with our life style right now that we will not be able to use cloth diapers full time, but my thinking is that whenever we use one we are saving money, keeping one more disposable out of the landfill and down the road will hopefully have an easier time potty training (because the cloth diapers are way more uncomfortable for the baby when they are wet). I didn't want to attempt cloth diapers when he was brand new because I wasn't sure how it would go and whether or not it would be overwhelming to have the extra loads of laundry, plus we got so many newborn sized diapers as gifts that we weren't going to need to buy diapers anyway. Actually, we haven't had to buy a single diaper yet-thanks to so many of our friends and family that gave us diapers as gifts. And since I used gift money to buy all the diapers and the covers-we haven't spent any of our own money on cloth diapers either. If anyone out there has tips for washing/using cloth diapers, etc. I would appreciate it. I have 2 of these pants (I am using cloth diapers inside instead of the disposable inserts this site sells) and 2 of these pants. I know I will probably end up needing more than 4 pairs of pants, but I wanted to try a couple first and see what I liked about the different styles.
