why not cloth diaper!!

Seriuosly why not?
I hear allot of people say "its too expensive to get started", or "ewww cloth is gross", or "its not convenient".
....but it IS easy to get start and dosent cost an arm and a leg, its NOT gross, and the extra time is sooo worth it!
here lets tackle things one by one!
"its too expensive" ---People often assume you have to just dive right in and toss all your spoises out the window, oh and then all the assesories! Im happy to say YOU DONT HAVE TO! they do sell alot of little things and say "oh yu must have this" but really you dont! all you need is some free and clear lundry soap, and most prefer to own a washer and dryer ;) and you dont have to go out and buy 20+ dipes that day. stick with spoises and just buy a few at a time when you can afford it and slowly cut back on buying spoises, once you have enough for 2 days you can stop buying spoises and every time you would normally buy spoises buy another dipe till you have a good enough stash!
"cloth is gross" -- ok changing any diaper is gross! but what do you do when you get pee'd on, or pp'd on or thrown up on?? do you trow out your shirt? nooooo you wash it! same for cloth! you can even wear dish washing gloves!
"its not convenient" -- true..it does take a little more time, but its so worth it! you wont spend even a fourth of what you would spend on spoises! spoises take at least 450 years to decompose!!! you can buy a wetbag for outings and just toss dirty dipes in it! cloth has NO chemicals!
"you have to change them more often" -- yes and for good reason! with spoises they have chemicals that "absorb" wetness..but its still in contact with their skin, hence why sooooo many babies get rashes! (yes some are just simply allergic to the chemicals). while cloth depending on dipe is very absorbent they still have their limit but weather useing spoises or cloth a baby should be changed at first sign of pee or poo. you wouldent like to sit in your on waste..would you??????????????????????? dident think so!

if anyone has any questions feel free to message me and ill add your question or anything you'd like to have in the post :)

  1. LOL! I glad I'm not the only "fanatical" diaper changer. My cousin and I were going shopping once and she wasn't even gonna carry spare diapers or change her kid before we left.
    "I just changed him an hour ago and he's not 'THAT' wet!".... (she really said that)
    Arghhh!!! And yes... I changed him and grabbed spares. Good thing, because he pooed a half hour later and it was RIPE!
