I considered
cloth diapering my second child before he was born, but truthfully, once I started looking into it, I was just too overwhelmed with the options and supplies. Therefore, cloth diapering fell to the wayside before he was even born. About once a month or so after he was born I would revisit the idea, again becoming overwhelmed each time. Fast forward to baby boy turning four months old and mama getting ready to start teaching again. My sister-in-law casually mentions she's been cloth diapering my niece and nephew at night...I ask a million questions, go home, and again am overwhelmed with all the choices. This time, though, I am determined, and with a promotion from diapers.com, I go for it and place my first order of
gdiapers. Being the cheapskate I am, I then scoured ebay and the gdiapers resale forum for deals on more.
I ended up with 7
medium gdiapers, 11
cloth inserts, and 8
plastic snap-in liners. I put the first one on baby Forbes, and I was hooked within seconds. Love them. Seriously love them. No leaks during the first day...even though I really didn't know what I was doing. And, Daddy even changed one!

Now the only problem is that in about two weeks I go back to work...great timing to start cloth diapering, huh? We will have to see how daycare feels about these things!
