Cloth or disposables?
« on: January 16, 2011, 03:32:07 AM »
If your kids are out of diapers, you can still vote for what you used when they wore.


I am currently using cloth because I'm cheap and I don't want to be spending lot of money on diapers every month and it give us more spending money. But we only be spending some of it on washing them since we have to pay to do laundry but it's cheap and it's a lot cheaper than using a diaper service or buying disposables.

when I was a baby I had to wear cloth diapers cause im allergic to almost everything, and my mom always used to bitch at me about it when I got older, like it was my fault or something :laugh:

I dont have kids and I dont want them so I guess I have no buisiness posting in this thread, but there isn't anything better to do.

if I *did* have a kid I'd probably use disposable ones for convieniece. But I wouldnt know how to put it on the kid so it would probably piss all over the place anyway.

If I had a baby I would use cloth nappies at home and disposable ones when out and about just for the convenience of them.

When I was a baby, I just used cloth diapers.

With my daughter, I used both cloth and disposable diapers.

Disposables were much more convenient to use when we weren't at home.

If your son ever goes to day care, note that most people don't know how to rinse out cloth diapers or maybe they just don't want to so if he poops, they will probably just put the entire diaper, contents and all, into a plastic bag for you to deal with when you get home.

My mother used cloth diapers only, which gave her lots of washing to do, since she had three kids in less than three years!   :sick:

This may sound counter-intuative, but disposables are better for the environment.

Cloth has to be washed which causes water polution.

I do wonder how mothers manage to get all the washing done when they use cloth nappies? I mean a new mum must have loads of washing and other stuff to do as it is.

You can be the parent of a new baby, or you can sleep.  You can't do both.   :laugh:

If your kids are out of diapers, you can still vote for what you used when they wore.

I am currently using cloth because I'm cheap and I don't want to be spending lot of money on diapers every month and it give us more spending money. But we only be spending some of it on washing them since we have to pay to do laundry but it's cheap and it's a lot cheaper than using a diaper service or buying disposables.
It's probably smarter to do it that way if you're OK with the ick factor of doing that laundry.  I'm assuming there's precautions you need to take/do take to minimize the risk of e. coli or other bacteria causing infections or sickness (prolly have to use hot water?).



...god, I'm glad I can't breed.  More power to you for doing it, Kit.  Take good care of your kid- don't let it get all fucked up like the rest of us on this board are.   :laugh:

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

I really hope I never have to wear nappies myself. I think I'll kill myself if I do. Especially if I still have ocd

What's scary though is I don't know if I'd ever have the guts to go through with it if I really did need to kill myself :laugh:

But yeah, shit is horrible, even if it's from a little person

Imagine my mother, with her three kids all born within 2 years and 10 months!  :zombiefuck:
