I couldn't stop thinking about the cloth diapers that should be coming in the mail this week, so I hopped on the local online classifieds to see what people were selling. One woman in my city had posted a whole bunch of really cute boy prints with some inserts that had never been used. She was only asking $4-$5 for each one! (Normally $15-20+) So, naturally I went over and fell in love and came home with 2/3 of her collection :) Happy Earth Day! I did something green.
Little man had just pooped after his nap so I figured I had dodged that area, and it was perfect timing to try out his first cloth diaper! I would have picked out my favorite one, but I love them all, so I just grabbed the closest one and strapped it on. How do I feel so far?
Well, in my extensive cloth diapering experience... ;) Here are my first impressions: The snaps will take some getting used to. Little man likes to wiggle and crawl away when he's getting his diaper changed, but I'm sure it won't be an issue once I've practiced and know what size he needs. Also, it's much more poofy than a disposable diaper. I haven't actually tried to put pants on over it yet, but I'm sure he'll have a nice little bubble butt when I do (that's partially genetic though.. he can thank his dad for that one).
As I'm sitting here typing this out, little man is crawling around exploring his bedroom.. That's fine and all, but he keeps pausing and staring with a glossed over look That doesn't mean he's looking closely at something, that means he's working on something. Something fun for mom. Looks like he wants to really see what these diapers are worth!
I'm nervous....
