So many of you may know but for those who don't, I have been changing diapers for almost 9 years straight. I was totally looking forward to getting Ryan potty trained while Morgan is deployed and finally being able to say goodbye to diaper. Well god looked down and laughed at my silly plans to be rid of diapers forever.
Now that we are going to have another baby I am toying around with the idea of using cloth diapers. I mean they have a fairly high overhead cost but they last for the entire time the baby/child is in diapers. They pretty much pay for themselves. O and did you know it takes a disposable diaper (pampers, huggies, luvs, etc.) over 500 years to break down in a landfill?? Nasty huh?
So my delima is where to start!! There are so many brands, types, sizes, and on and on and on. It makes my brain hurt to think about it. I know I want to use snaps because all I have read says that the Velcro wears out. I know I want to use inserts so that I can use the same cover more for more than one diapering at a time. But once again I have NO idea where to start.
If you have any ideas or good informative websites then the information would be great!! Wish me luck on my journey to find the perfect cloth diaper and the guts and discipline to stick out the whole messy process known as cloth diapering!

Gramma Billie wanted to get us a diaper service when Morgan was born but the last company here had gone out of business with the invention of disposables. the good ones were 100% cotton. the cadillac of snap covers were "alexanders" they felt like silk, didn't stain and lasted forever.
