Comments on: So You Think You’re Too Squeamish For Cloth Diapers…

I love my cloth diapers and not having to haul stinky loads to the dumpster. My bathroom always smells awful after I’ve changed a poopy disposable diaper. I think it probably helps a lot that most of that gets flushed when I use cloth. However, I take issue with, “This involves either a gentle shake or a bit of toilet paper to help it off.” Um, do you mean to say you’ve never had those diapers with reconstituted raisins that can only be cleaned with a blast from a fire hose? Poopy diapers that can be taken care of with a gentle shake are a rare and (relatively) pleasant event in this house. I don’t know what I’d do without my rubber gloves and diaper sprayer.

I’ve had much bigger, stinkier messes with disposables than
I’ve ever had with cloth! I’ll never go back to disposables!

Of course being a SAHM, I change most of the diapers, however, I just want to say that my husband has been so awesome about Cloth Diapers! He loves them! I have heard him telling friends at work how great and smart cloth diapers have been!

I remember when my sister in law started using cloth… I thought she was crazy! However, when I actually saw how easy it was , and how much money she was saving, I was willing to give it a try. I am so glad I did, and I am so thankful that cloth diapers have evolved so much, that it really is easy!

I’ve been using disposables while Ih restock my stash…we’ve has some horrible blow outs that never happened with cloth. I would rather deal with a well contained mess than have to change bedding just because of a poo. Also, I’ve been using a cloth diaper pail lined with trash bags for the disposable, it stinks horribly! No where near the smell when it was holding our cloth dipes. I’m so glad I’ve got my stash nearly rebuilt!

I actually find my cloth MUCH LESS stinky than disposables. Disposables smell chemically before, during, & after use! After a few days in a diaper pail the stench was overwhelming, especially when I was pregnant! My cloth diapers just smell like cloth, and in the pail they don’t even stink much at all. I rinse all of mine before they go in the pail & wash every 2 days…I’ll take that over walking a disposable out to the trash every two hours in rain all spring, freezing temps in winter, 100+ degrees in the summer, etc!

We are expecting our first little one this summer and are very excited to use cloth diapers. Even my husband is on board with it! Your website has been very helpful with preparing us for this part of our new adventure!

Cloth diapers are much more reliable than I was expecting. When we first started using them I expected constant blow outs, but to my pleasure I have only had one (which was mostly my fault since I didn’t completely get the leg gussets around the cloth diaper). I don’t think I’ll ever stop using cloth.
