Cloth Diapers


We've begun using cloth diapers which we feel is much better for the environment. Violet seems to have adjusted to the change, though her appearance is much more chunky. She looks a lot like a Tellytubbie with the extra bulk of the cloth! The cloth diaper process is much easier these days...no pins, no rinsing, no rubber pants. There are velcro diaper covers that you put over the cloth diaper that hold it in place. We have a diaper service here in Charlottesville that picks up the dirties and leaves a stack of clean ones for the week. It is a bit more challenging to carry around the big cotton diapers, but we are getting used to it and so far there have been no leaks!
