do you use cloth diapers or disposable?

I used disposable diapers on my son only because it's a hassle to change and wash the cloth diapers over and over again. But I would definitely recommend using cloth ones because aside that they're cheaper, they're breathable and have less chances of causing rashes and urinary tract infection. Plus, they are not a burden to the environment.

My kids are all grown up now but when they were babies, I used cloth diapers. For one, cloth diapers are a lot cheaper since they last for several babies. Secondly, they're a lot more "environmentally friendly," since you don't send them to the landfill. And when they do finally wear out, they biodegrade, which disposable diapers don't.

Using cloth diapers is alot easier said done thats for sure! I did try it but mainly just used disposable. They are a lot a lot a lot of work unless you have the money to pay for a service. One thing I did use them for was a burp diaper. Whenever I picked up the baby I also picked up the cloth diaper and draped it over my shoulder. Babys are always spitting up or burping. Doesn't everyone do that?

Mostly disposable diaper for all of my kids. 1- Personal preferences - No washing required, thus saving of time, and a saving on washing up products including on disinfectants. - Generally less mess to deal with. - Reducing the chances of the child from getting nappy rash.

I used cloth diapers with my first child, until I returned to work then disposable. The babysitter just couldn't deal with cloth diapers. After my second child I didn't even attempt cloth diapers. My husband said he absolutely would have no part of it.

I used disposable with mine. I babysat for a woman who used cloth and it was disgusting. I understood where she was coming from, but u spend a lot on cloth too. I have another friend who uses cloth and she likes them, but I think she spent a few hundred starting out. Buying the diapers in the size she needed to start, the diaper covers you can buy some inserts too. Washing them she bought this little thing that attaches to your toilet so you can rinse off the poop in the toilet. It needs to be cleaned off before thrown in the wash. She did a load of diapers almost everyday. I think you can save money with cloth, but a lot of ppl forget the fact you have to buy all the supplies first, you will need to buy bigger diapers, now you can make your own if you sew. You will be washing the diapers so figure in water and laundry soap. Your not going to throw the diapers in with the baby clothes so its a seperate load on its own.There are advantages to cloth. You wont buy diapers all the time, its easier to potty train in cloth since they definatly feel wet. Disposable you throw away and you dont have to wash them. I think it just depends on the person. I cant say for certain how much you will end up saving, but its everyones own personal decesion. Something definatly to look into before diving in. I know some one else who thought they wanted to do cloth unstil they saw the work you put into it.

Good for you! If I had it to do over I too would use cloth. I used disposable and still feel guilty over the tons of litter I caused. The first couple of months I had diaper service then switched to disposable, but I wouldn't repeat that. I would just use disposable once in a while when going out. I think cloth may be better for the skin too and certainly less expensive and better for the environment.

I don't have children yet myself, but when I was still in diapers, my grandparents would use cloth for the most part. Let's face it, diapers are very costly and they aren't exactly environmentally friendly. I think when I have children I'll use cloth diapers. Dealing with the grossness is worth saving all the money.
