I want to take a short break today from food and talk about something I know many mamas out there use and many more are curious about…
Cloth diapers.
I’ve been cloth diapering Little Mama since she was 1 month old. After 8 months of diapering her in cloth, I can personally tell you, its been easy; for myself and my husband.
When it came to my older two, I wanted to cloth diaper them, but was fearful. I had many questions and no good resources to get me started. Sure, there was a lot of information on the internet, but so much so, that it was overwhelming. I didn’t know where to start and there were too many people on the opposing side telling me that diapering in cloth would be too much work, would cause leaks, and rashes.
I can kick myself that I didn’t do more research on my own at the time. It would have saved me so much money to have been able to build my cloth diaper stash and pass them down from child to child.
I can only move forward and am so happy that I decided to cloth diaper Little Mama. We’ve had none of those issues, have saved a lot of money, and I’m happy that her little bum is not exposed to any harmful toxins that can be lurking in regular diapers.
I had to learn all of this on my own and only wish my friend Erin from The Humbled Homemaker would have written her brand new ebook called, Confessions of a Cloth Diaper Convert, 6 years ago!
The time of researching and answering all of my questions in one place would have been invaluable. I’m still a newbie cloth diapering mama, and I’ve got to say I’m excited to have a copy of my own – I’m already learning how to keep my diapers fresh smelling and new.
I’m writing this post so that any mama out there considering cloth diapering and looking for great information in one place can get started.
For the launch of her new book, for this week only, Erin is offering her ebook for $9.95 – less than the cost of using disposable diapers for one week!
Here’s the best part…. the book comes bundled with amazing freebies!

I kind of missed the boat on that one, because I didn’t think I could handle it. But I am very happy for you and your precious baby that you were able to do it! (: I have had friends who use cloth and LOVE it! I will definitely encourage my children to use cloth for their babes when they are grown.
Hi Diana, Thanks for raising the visibility and helping to demystify good ol’ cloth diapering. It’s what we did for the diapering years of our son and we never regretted it. It saves so much money-my example: I found a terrific bargain at my local 2nd hand kids shop of 12 virtually new diapers, doublers and about 5 covers from MotherEase for $60 (yahoo!). and that lasted 3 + years!! With a couple of new covers later on purchased with traded clothing. Not too shabby! We were gifted with a couple of good hand me down covers too. I also registered for, and received, gift certificates to the local diapering service. I had decided to do that for the first month or so after son was born. a lifesaver! and the blessing towards the earth to not have more landfill was a big part of our decision to go this route. Please let me know if it’s ok to mention an online cloth diaper resource that may be helpful to your cloth diapering readers, especially those who are hesitant to begin. They have trial diaper offers. They are a local company (Ithaca, NY) that began online-I think, and still do that. Nice people. It’s ok if you’d rather not. I’ll check back later this week. Take good care!
What great info there, Joan! I just purchased 6 new diapers today for $60! I was pretty excited ;D We should be set until we’re done now 😀
That’s great! I actually meant if you wanted to post the store’s website for your readers. I wasn’t sure if it conflicted at all with the information you offered in this post. At 11 pm at night last night with a fuzzy brain I didn’t make the leap that you’d be interested too! hah! So glad you did!
