I've got to say that using cloth is actually EASIER most of the time. And as Im not the most organised person, for me to say that....!

I've been defaulting to the greener disposibles at night as she was just so wet, but as she slept thru last night after a VERY short feed (hurray!) her nappy was hardly used so if that continues she will be back in cloth at night too as I hate the idea that Im wasting money (dont you just hate it when they wait til there's a clean nappy on before a poo! No prob with cloth! Or when it's half an hour til bedtime but the nappy is full - ditto - just stuff it less!).

I will really miss them whe she potty trains, which is beginning to happen.

And cloth nappies can have such great patterns - who wants boring old white disposibles, eh? Just doesnt look right any more. Not to mention the smell of disposibles - you can just smell the chemicals when the urine soaks into the gel - DH always thinks she's got a dirty nappy on coz she stinks so much more than usual!

After wearing cloth nappies, my 15month old son looks so uncomfortable in squelchy disposables!!

I got the same reaction when I had my kids - everyone told me it was a waste of time and too much bother and not to use them when I said I would. I was determined though and I used cloth squares right through for my oldest (although he was out of them completely at 20 months) and for at least the first 6 months with my youngest (who has only given nappies the boot in the last 2 weeks at 24 months, woohoo!). I did start getting a few modern cloth when our youngest was around 6 months and slowly built the supply to take over from the cloth squares - but either way I would do it all over again!

We love wool. I wish I knew you could use wool I would have used them with my first rather than Fluffies. I knit soakers and pants - love em!

I don't really notice the extra laundry. I have to wash clothes and towels anyway. I think its easier than disposables.

I use cloth nappies also - I just love the way they look, flapping on the clothes line!

yeah i find ppl are quite surprised too! often i hear its too much work or a waste of time but it doesnt seem like all that much to me?

luckily my IGA stocks plastic pants i dont like using plastic covers all that much but they do save my stuff of a nighttime lol

the net has alot of great covers too
