I use cloth, and I think there's more of us out there! I use cloth to save $$ mainly. If you use cloth what's your fave? If you use disposables, would you every try cloth?
Thanks guys!

Recently started using cloth because I thought it would save us money but unfortunately I have fallen in love with all those cute prints and girlie covers so have spent way more but still love them.

I use cloth too! Everyone thinks that cloth causes rashes, well with my son he had bleeding rashes when he was in disposables. I put him in fuzzi bunz, and by the end of the day he had no rash! This was after months of creams, airing the bum out, doctors appointments, etc. I will never put a disposable diaper on any baby of mine again! I learned that the "gel" stuff inside is toxic.
I also save tons of money, I kind of laugh at the diaper aisle in stores, I never have to buy those again!
I'm also an environmentalist, I was disguisted to learn how long it takes for diposable diapers to decompose in landfills-years and years!
My favorites for naps/nightimes are fuzzi bunz with a few inserts inside. During the day we use cheap fitteds like thirsties under a fleece cover. I've been cloth diapering for over a year now.

I dont think id use cloth for my baby because its prone for rashes and when your baby had rashes much more expenses you'll encounter like buying creams for rashes and irritations and most important is your baby will be irritable cause of that rashes.
