It's Official

We finally did it. We told Delia on Saturday morning that we didn't have anymore pullups. She has been wearing big girl underwear since then (all day and night). And she's only had 3 accidents. I blame myself for it taking this long. She would have been completely potty trained a year ago, but I was scared. I didn't know what to do after we accomplished the first few steps. Then with the move and everything we sort of fell behind. Now with her sister's quickly approaching arrival I figured it was time to end that phase in our lives. Especially since we'll need the money we spend on Delia's pullups for the baby's diapers!!

Which brings me to another (similar) topic. For those of you parents who use or have used the cloth diapers (fuzzy buns, bum genius, happy heinys, etc); What did you think of them? Did they work really well? Was it a pain to take care of them? Which brand did you use? I am curious about them and wouldn't mind giving them a try. Any advice would be great!

I was just looking at diapers.com and I found these:

They are called gDiapers. They are Earth friendly hybrid diapers that you flush, compost or toss. For those of you interested here is a link to the website:

Maybe we'll give these a try.

Hooray Delia!

We LOVE our Fuzzi Bunz. They are as easy to take on and off as a throw away diaper (no pins, extra covers etc), and as simple to take care of as an added couple of loads of laundry a week. E-mail me if you want to talk more!

From what I have heard, G-diapers are about as pricy as using throw aways, but they are better for the environment.

Thanks Sarah. All I've heard about gDiapers is that they were a pain. So I guess we won't go with those! I will definetly be checking into the other types more. You'll probably get an email from me soon! Take Care!

hi leslie....i cloth diapered riley for like her first 2 months and the only real reason i stopped is bc we didn't have our own washer and dryer....if we would have had them, i probably would have kept it up. it's not too tough. honestly, i found fuzzi bunz to be the best, they are the most expensive but i loved them bc they were reliable and the easiest to use. i tried g diapers and i didn;t really like them. just my 2 cents. we can chat more about it in person. check out diaperpin.com if you get a chance:)
