Give cloth diapers a chance!

Everyone who knows me knows that cloth diapering is my pet issue. I could go on and on for hours about this, so I will be very brief.

Even if you don't have a baby in diapers, disposable diapers affect us all since they make up such a HUGE percentage of our landfills. They also use natural resources that are just thrown away after being worn for a few hours. The rumor spread around by proctor & gamble that cloth diapers are just as bad on the environment as disposables was some seriously twisted corporate propeganda. Be informed on the subject so you can tell your friends.

Not only are cloth diapers better for the environment, they are better for your baby. Rashes and other health problems are MUCH higher with babies that wear paper & plastic diapers. Not to mention all those mega-absorbent chemicals that shouldn't be anywhere near the reproductive parts of a baby.

Cloth diapers are also WAY CHEAPER than disposables, even if you add in laundry costs. Add up the costs over a 3-year diapering period and you will be amazed. Not to mention that those cloth diapers can be used on your next child, diapering for free!

And finally, cloth diapers are so cute! I get the shivers every time I see a baby that is afflicted with an icky disposable diaper. If you are thinking of prefolds, pins, & plastic pants, look around online to see the kinds of cloth diapers moms are using on their babies today. The choices are endless!
