We're getting ready to go to camp. I'm packing like crazy. The kids and I will be gone for three weeks. I won't be blogging :o)
On the list of things to pack...3 weeks of disposable diapers for two children.
Sticker shock.
We're not using cloth for those three weeks because
1. using other people's washing machines has proved to make our diapers leak and stinky, even after using our Charlie's in a load before hand. (When regular detergent or fabric softener is used on cloth diapers that have PUL it makes them leak, even being washed in machines that routinely use those products can ruin them. I can strip the diapers and usually restore them, but it is hours of work.)
2. When I am at camp I have to wait till the weekend to do laundry at a laundromat. I don't have enough cloth to diaper for a whole week without washing.
Here is a portion of Little Monkey's diapers.
And here is a portion of Rosebud's. They are saving us BIG bucks. We've bought some of the disposables we are going to use-having trouble finding Rosebud's size at a price I'll pay. Even buying generic cheap-o diapers it is going to cost around $75 for three weeks. SOOO glad we switched to cloth. Considering cloth? Go for it!
