Cloth diapers

So when my Abigail was a new born I thought about cloth diapers.. So I talked to my cousin who made all of her own I asked her questions and drilled her about how to take care of them and what about leaks and this that and the other!

Well needless to say we are only using cloth diapers now... With the exception of out of town events and long car rides!

But I am so happy we switched over :) I plan on using them with my newborn right from the hospital...

So we use the following items for our cloth diapering.....

Thirsties Dou Wrap! 














The best diaper cover because it is so easy to use.. and is adjustable to your growing baby!

We also use organic cotton pre-folds... Gonna be making my own here soon wish me luck I have never made them before...

Then these very neat things called snappies...













The best thing ever invented!

Then to wash them... Which I do every other day... I use my home made laundry soap and hang them on our line... So much cheaper and easy to use and not to mention that they are very green :)

I only wished that I would have done this from the start... It's kind of expensive to start out.. But if you look at the savings in the long run... Totally worth it :)
Or even if you can make your own... There are so many websites that give you instruction if you are good at sewing you could do it for sure!

Just thought I would share :)
