I typically "check in" with the lady who blogs at www.simplemom.net. She is interesting, gifted in domesticity and has free, worthwhile giveaways on her blog. If you not visited her site yet, you definitely, definitely, definitely should. Two days ago, I read or rather viewed this
post about cloth diapering. If ever you have been intimidated by the process of cloth diapering, this video will change your perspective and make it seem a lot more friendly and a lot less yucky.
Today, I read this
post and my interest in cloth diapering has been further renewed. I can't say for sure that we will be going ahead with this but I do think that I will start making my own wipes solution and I already have a ton of baby washcloths that I NEVER use which could easily be converted into bum wipes.... so how's that for saving money? In fact, with all this attempted potty training we've been doing with Meira, I am thinking maybe we'll just infant potty train little Miss Natalie Viann. The technical term is
"Elimination Communication." Then, all three kids will be potty training (technically, Ethan is just "in training" at night so we are third of the way there to the land of the diaper-free!) and we'll be out of diapers in no time! Take that Huggies, Pampers, LUVS, et al!

If you ever want to come by and check out, feel, and practice on a stuffed animal any cloth diapers, I have a (too large) stash of many different kinds--prefolds, covers, fitteds, pockets, all-in-ones... Seriously, just let me know!
We used both on Trey, but decided to give up something else and stuck w/disposables-challenging being in school and different schedules, but....with your determination-I'm sure that you could do it.
By the way, good luck with the EC thing... esp with 2 others. Ha!
