her tush

I have been researching, contemplating, and rethinking cloth diapering for the last year. After seeing my little girl's tush in "old fashion" cloth diapers at her current home, I decided to jump on board. Her little bottom will be used to it and everything about cloth diapering these days just makes sense for us. Now, I will say, honestly. I am not going to be a 100% cloth diapering mama. No, I will classify myself as a part timer. Because that is just how I roll. I still love me some disposables, especially when out and about.

So, I made the purchase. It was actually very emotional for me. The gal helping me probably thought I was nuts. Crying while picking out cloth diapers. She probably thought, " why is she doing it then, just stick to disposables if it going to be that bad!"

I was thinking about how I have never seen her little tush. Is it chubby with a few extra cheeks? Bubbly round, like my boys? Flat, and petite? Dimply?

I have never seen her little thighs either. Does she look like a Michelin baby? Or lean little thighs? I don't know...

I am going to have to withhold myself from asking if, at the first meeting, they could just bring her in a diaper.

totally kidding....maybe?

This mama wants to see her girl in her cute diaper tush.

I also got the detergent for the special washing these diapers require and a cute little bag to put the wet diapers into.

Any advice from you cloth diaper mama experts would be greatly appreciated.

I loved cloth diapers. I really did it the old fashion way..pins and all! I would just put the soiled ones in a diaper pail and once a day do diapers. I never soaked them in the toilet just dumped it when need be. They are super easy. And you will love them! More people need to jump on board. The only time I did not use them were over night..nap time I doubled or tripled them, and when we were going out and about for long periods. If we went to the store I would just double her. Plus it is soo cute to see their big rump with them on!!!! Good luck. I am very proud of you for going cloth, you and your baby will be very happy!!!!!

PS. I know there are diaper services in KC. They do all the dirty work!

Ohhh I love cloth! Seriously I started when EJ was newborn and have never looked back! I LOVE not having to buy disposables. Honestly if you do part time, I think it would be easy to go full time. You are already doing the laundry so why not. And cloth is just as easy out and about as sposies!
We have used tons of different pockets, all in ones and twos, fitteds, countours and prefolds! Ask me any questions and I will try to help!!
