I know nothing about it, but I'd like to introduce it to my readers. Could you do that for me?<br /><br />Let me know.

One thing I don't *quite* get is people ranting on about the water and washing issue - it's not like they'd use disposable clothes just to save water?<br /><br />I understand it is actually very little water - about 5 loo flushes to wash cloth diapers in a load. (something like that!) and well, the impact is something you have more control over - by line drying, minimal dryer use, not soaking and bleaching, sanitising with the sun and so on.<br /><br />The next step for eco-conscious families to consider is combining cloth diaper use with Baby Pottying - The Elimination Communication method is an ancient way to gradually reduce your use of diapers, one at a time.<br /><br />May I offer a link to my resources helping families ease into EC part-time? I am really enthusiastic about helping families ease into baby pottying as a way to reduce diaper washing and waste.<br /><br />I have put together a free introductory series of emails - a guided tour about the best attitudes to adopt when beginning EC. It's very popular!<br /><br />Here:<br />http://www.parttimediaperfree.com/<br />http://www.parttimediaperfree.com/Modern-Cloth-Diapers.htm<br /><br />Thanks, <br />CharndraCharndra from Part Time Diaper Free!http://www.parttimediaperfree.com/Modern-Cloth-Diapers.htmnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5909575150882551215.post-30579090124796761132009-09-16T22:18:43.399-04:002009-09-16T22:18:43.399-04:00We used cloth diapers for most of the years when o...We used cloth diapers for most of the years when our kids were in diapers. I think it is a lot more sanitary for the environment to dip your dirty diaper in the toilet and then wash than to seal it up and throw it in the trash. You make very good points, Hana. <br />meganinChristalone~Megan Vancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11595781095268450449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5909575150882551215.post-69497993921632547242009-09-16T21:25:37.059-04:002009-09-16T21:25:37.059-04:00Hey, anyone out there interested in buying 10 size...Hey, anyone out there interested in buying 10 size small BumGenius diapers? My daughter outgrew them. They're still in good shape. The ONLY cloth brand I've used is BumGenius. They're very much like a disposable. Very convenient. They cost like $16 per diaper new. I'm looking to get $8 per diaper. Any takers? If so, email desuta@mac.comHeatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09747307872009872408noreply@blogger.com
