Do you spray any kind of enzyme or deodorizer on the diapers when you put them in the pail?

[burleysgirl616]

I don't spray anything on them at all. In fact I don't even use a lid or pail anymore, since Connor learned to pull them out and throw them around the house lol. Right now I just have the wetbag on the ground. We never have an issue with smell washing every other day.

I am expecting my first baby in October and have just watched all of your cloth diapering tutorials. They are SO HELPFUL. My husband and I are planning to give CDs a good try, but we do not know anyone else doing it (so, no hand-me-downs unfortunately!). We were wondering, is there a benefit of having many different types. After watching your videos we feel one-size BGs look the easiest...any reason other than cost to combine with prefolds? When all is said and done does cost come out similar?

[burleysgirl616]

The benefit of having a variety of different styles is that you can learn what works best for you, your family, and your baby.  There are plenty of places online where you can buy, sell, and trade used diapers, so any you don't like can just be sold or traded for something you do like! Prefolds are BY FAR the cheapest, other kinds are just easier.

HEY ALL! since you are earth conscious, I will share that I use Viva paper towels cut into small squares. They are soft as fabric when wet. I fill a small container with luke warm water, dip the paper towel squares in and wipe away! You can flush or trash them when done. CHEAP, cleaner than wipes, and good for the planet

[burleysgirl616]

One step better is cloth wipes! Obviously you can't flush them, but you can get baby washcloths 5 or 10 for $1 at the Dollar store. Keep them in a container with water and toss them in the diaper pail for wash day! Even cheaper and even better for the planet!

How do I ever start using cloth diapers.  So many choices, I am overwhelmed. I need someone to tell me how many I need to buy. And, how much money I need to start!

Those prefolds are nice for dusting around the house

Have you tried Thirsties AIO? I am trying to find a good AIO for night time. My 7month is a very heavy wetter I am have been changing her bum 3 times in the night. Right now I have the AIO Kushies and Prefolds - great during the day!
