My daughter, Bethany Schad, put together this pictorial cloth
diapering overview in an attempt to help other moms understand the ins
and outs of cloth diapering. She has graciously allowed me to share it
with you.
Cloth Diapering 101

My
diaper pail next to the diaper sprayer. Pail liner is by planet wise from
Happy Baby Company.
I have it in yellow and gray.
wicker basket from Hobby Lobby.
|
|
|
|
Diaper
sprayer for removing solids into the toilet.
I
also spray wet diapers that may not be getting washed in the next day
so
that the pee doesn't dry on the diapers.
I believe this has
helped me a ton with not having ammonia issues.
|
|
Most of
my stash.
This
doesn't include my newborn stash or the 6 dirty diapers from the day.
|
|
All of my pocket diapers. Bumgenius 4.0 and artist series | | |
|
Wet
bags- 1 large, 2 small Planet Wise and 1 small The Natural Baby Company bag.
On the
left is my wipes solution- Honey chunks.
I
boil water and add one chunk and add it to the little spray bottle for my
diaper bag.
|
|
My cloth
wipes. My sister made most of this stack for my baby shower (to use as
cloth napkins). Some Thirsties Fab wipes and also some Hemp wipes.
Here are
some of my cloth friendly diaper creams, as well.

I put a few of my
gDiapers in here. We really don't use them.
I have a whole
bunch of size smalls that we liked, but once we moved to the mediums,
they didn't hold
enough.
Use
with the hemp/microfiber insert pictured or disposable inserts. |

left are newborn inserts from my BGs. Now I use these as boosters for
nighttime.
