Starting cloth diapers today!
I am just very excited and needed to share this somewhere!
My girl is 6ish months and yesterday I was gifted a huge stash from a neighbor with a dozen Alva Baby pockets and two dozen Babee Greens fitted and I started with the pockets this morning after sterilizing and washing everything but the wool covers for the fitted diapers yesterday. (It’s too hot right now to try a stovetop sterilizing regimen.)
I had picked up 6 miscellaneous cloth diapers a few months ago but been too overwhelmed/intimidated to try them, and it also felt like a lot of work to get started with only six mismatched diapers. But when I was offered this stash I decided it was a sign to get started! Baby is currently napping in her second diaper of the day, wish us luck.
I have got a butt spatula for scraping poop into the toilet (we started solids about a month ago), and I put a mesh bag in a metal mesh trash can for laundry, what else do I need to get started? I already had saved the washing recommendations for my machine so I’ll be giving those a try tomorrow morning.
