Diapers

26 weeks & 1 day pregnant....

To cloth diaper or not?? That has been a question I asked myself since I first saw the ad for cloth diapers in one of my baby magazines I've been receiving in the mail. For months I've been doing the research online and benefits include that it's eco-friendly, it saves TONS of money, and less chemicals for baby. I'm sure there are more benefits but, those are the ones that stuck out for me. I am not against disposable diapers at all, but I wonder why more people wouldn't use cloth diapers, especially because they save so much money. Although there are pros, there are many cons as well..and maybe that's what it is that makes people not want to cloth diaper. This includes, but is not limited to...washing constantly! However, I wash clothes ALL the time & my husband washes his gi in the washer everyday, so maybe I would just be able to sneak in the stinky diapers with his stuff LOL!!

Today I bought 2 different cloth diapers. I bought a fuzzi bunz diaper & the 4.0 Bumgenius diaper. I didn't realize that the Fuzzi Bunz weren't one size fits all like the bumgenius, but I liked the fact that the material in the Fuzzi Bunz was softer and that you can adjust the tightness of the leg area. I'm going to wait until Silas pops out to try both of these and see which one I like before I spend anymore money on diapers. Who knows, I may end up hating cloth diapers! Also, I plan on getting Silas circumsized and would feel more comfortable if he used disposable diapers until he heals, so that'll give me some time as well to figure out what I prefer.

Oh the dilemma...
