My favorite diaper is an AI2--I love their versatility :)<br /><br />I started much the same way, only I started with pockets because someone was giving their stash away! Then, little by little, one diaper at a time, I built it into an ecclectic mix like yours!Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06710952343278124124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8500356729468382040.post-65839851038972937492011-07-05T07:55:30.847-05:002011-07-05T07:55:30.847-05:00Ugh.

I'll try again :)<br />My biggest gripe with AIOs is the dry time - they take for.ev.er! But they are SO convenient, especially for alternative caregivers.<br />Our preferred style is the pocket dipe - stuffable to your needs (day v. night), cute, and easy!Dionna @ Code Name: Mamahttp://codenamemama.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8500356729468382040.post-4727670894874175732011-07-04T22:20:09.040-05:002011-07-04T22:20:09.040-05:00I feel like I'm the only one who didn't st...I feel like I'm the only one who didn't start with prefolds here :) I guess that's why I love them so much! <br /><br />I think it was great how even though you shared your experience and your opinion, you always went back to the idea that every mom really needs to choose what works for her child or children and situation. Of course, that's what makes cloth diapering so daunting to so many people in the first place because you can get all the advice you want but in the end it might not mean zilch for your family. However, it's posts like this one that will hopefully inspire everyone to at least give it a try!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13678769832792201034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8500356729468382040.post-60413919330992647452011-07-04T10:20:27.198-05:002011-07-04T10:20:27.198-05:00thank you everyone for all of your positive feedba...thank you everyone for all of your positive feedback <3<br /><br />Zoie, it's crazy how much I love my cloth diapers, they are like 1 of my prized posessions I swear. I love to talk about them and show them off. Who would ever think something that's made to catch pee and poop could be so much fun.<br /><br />Mercedes, which links are not working? Are they links in the body of my actual post or are they links in the foot notes that include all of the posts for the carnival itself? If it's in the footnotes it could be that those links are not live yet because they are not scheduled to be up until later this week.Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01450553014545257969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8500356729468382040.post-72243670870823164752011-07-04T09:30:44.370-05:002011-07-04T09:30:44.370-05:00Great post!

I love the idea of donating to those in need. Diapering is so hard but can be so daunting to new moms who think that it makes more sense to buy this inexpensive package of diapers now and not think about how that all adds up over time. Even using one prefolds and cover at a time and adding to it when you can saves so much money!

It's the way to go.<br /><br />Thank you for the information about donating cloth diapers though - I definitely have a few that we won't be using, but I've been reluctant to let them go because I want them to have a good home as they are still good diapers. I will get in touch with one of them.

I love your philosophy, and totally identify. Aside from my prefolds, there are very few diapers that I have more than one or two of, because I love to give everything a try! I guess my point is that there is definitely some great advice here - thanks, Christy! :)melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16698231692999838673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8500356729468382040.post-41563948842870054082011-07-04T01:56:28.468-05:002011-07-04T01:56:28.468-05:00We have a similar journey in our stash building.

I'm not entirely sure what it is about cloth diapers that engender such emotions in mamas, but most that I've spoken with feel love for their cloth diapers.Zoie @ TouchstoneZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08688056216105729821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8500356729468382040.post-25722153967920251452011-07-04T00:43:18.340-05:002011-07-04T00:43:18.340-05:00Some of the links aren't working for me :/Some of the links aren't working for me :/Mercedesnoreply@blogger.com
