It is about time...
That I make my feelings on disposable diapers known. I hate them. Really. Environmental and monetary aspects aside, they are pure crap. The other day, trying to go for "convenience" I packed our diaper bag with a few disposables rather than the usual cloth diapers. You tell me, which is more "convenient"? 1) Putting a soiled cloth diaper in a zip-loc baggie to wash later, or 2) Try to get your baby out of a onsie without getting the poop that has squirted out the back and front, on her face and hair? Seriously. I have yet to have a "blow-out" with a cloth diaper, but out of the handful of times I've gone disposable, it has ended badly. Cloth diapers have come a long way, baby, and it is better for the Earth, you, and your baby, IMHO.

I use what are called "Chinese Pre-folds," diaper-service quality, and "Bummies Whisper Wrap" covers. I've liked those covers best so far. I haven't tried the all-in-ones yet, mostly because I am too cheap :-)
Those diapers are hilarious! I would TOTALLY put them on Lily if someone wanted to put up the $25 per diaper :-)
i just learned this about a soiled onsie...if it has a fold-over neck, you can slide it down over their body and not up over the head! i have done this recently!
