I wash them with diapers every other day, so they get a good cold rinse and a good hot wash. Then I toss it in a separate wet bag that hangs on the bathroom doorknob. It doesn't gross me out, but I can see how not everyone would do this. I run the cold water in the bathroom sink and "rinse" the soiled pad. I put the pad on (all of mine have snaps to hold them in place), they are really absorbent so I wear them a couple of hours or until I'm not comfortable with it, then unsnap and put on a new one. My "routine" for the mama cloth is similar to the cloth diapers. I got two panty liners and two pads from her for $20! They are a different design and cut (than the Treehuggers) but I do really like them as well. I also bought some off a Mama from my Canadian cloth diaper group (on Facebook). I *love* the design and absorbency (and the soft minky) of the Treehuggers pads. They even make wetbags specifically for the cloth pads (purse-sized). They make liners, day pads, overnight pads and postpartum pads. They have many packages available and the prices are great (they work out to about $11 per pad). Many people suggested Treehuggers Cloth Pads. And I was overwhelmed with the response I got. So instead, I decided to ask around and see if anyone on my local and Canadian cloth diaper groups made mama cloth or had any ones they suggested. Around $20 per pad was a bit much in my opinion because I wasn't sure how many I'd need. But suddenly I was cloth diapering my baby and *so* against disposable items that, really, how could I go back to using tampons? Luna Pads were soft and seems like a pretty good choice, but the price of them threw me off a bit.
I used disposable pads for my postpartum bleeding and I used tampons for years and years prior to becoming pregnant, without really thinking about it much. This was when Noah was pretty little and I was first thinking about switching to cloth pads when my period returned. I first discovered Luna Pads because a local baby boutique sells them. But I'd been researching Mama cloth for many months before that, knowing I wanted to use them when my body finally decided to get back to normal. I did not get my first postpartum period until my son was 16 months old, just two months ago. Let me know if there's anything you want to see here.Ī little off topic of cloth diapers, but I really feel the need to do a post about Mama cloth (ie: cloth menstrual pads). I also have been working on a few new pages for the blog, general information and updates to some of the pages. I have a giveaway in the works as well as a few different reviews I've been meaning to do. My world will soon revolve around cloth diapers again!
DIAPER GROUP GIGATRIBE FULL
This blog will be up and full of action again soon, I promise. I'm very excited to haul out the vacuum-sealed bag of newborn cloth diapers to wash and prep them, and of course get them on another tiny baby bottom. I'm pregnant! Almost 20 weeks, due in early June. Diapers haven't been on my mind lately, at all.īUT. He's two and a half and very much a "big boy", as he says.
He wears fleece or wool pants over his diapers and he generally sleeps all night.
He still wears cloth diapers at bed time but only his "boring" over night diapers (mostly Bamboozles fitteds and a couple other very absorbent fitteds). My son has been potty trained since he turned 2 years old, 6 months ago. I know it's been awhile since I posted here.
