Too Much Stripping!

The Importance of Rinsing

It seems too easy to say rinse, rinse, rinse.  But, most of the time that is the solution. I've had ammonia, dead animal smell, rashes and leaking all within the last 6 months.  Every time I set myself on a rinsing campaign the problem is fixed. Most recently my Bum Genius … [Read more...]

I used All About Cloth Diapers when my oldest (now 5) developed an allergy around 6mo to disposable diapers. If it weren’t for this site, I would have switched back to disposables because I was having so many issues with fit and cleaning. This site really helped me to understand how to cloth diaper. I have used the big book every year even after my kids potty trained because there are so many amazing deals for everyday household and personal needs! So glad I found this site and the big book!

This is a great place to learn all there is to know about cloth diapers and the care of them. There is no right or wrong way to cloth diaper. All in one's may work best for one child but flats may work best for another child. You will understand how to care for your cloth diapers so they last you. There is a wealth of information on various brands and wool as well. Highly recommend!

The all about cloth diaper chat group is also full veteran and new to cloth moms. You cant get any better resources when it comes to starting your cloth diaper journey. The owner is Jennifer is so helpful and spent a lot time making sure new parents have the information they need about starting cloth diapering their little one. I absolutely love this site and I'm a member of the group on facebook. You should definitely check out the site!!!
