I normally use cloth, but in the last week have been using sposies cause my darling DH broke my washing machine..

And I have noticed a difference, and much prefer cloth. I can smell the chemicals in the sposies each time they do a wee, but then you do also have the smell of amonia when the nappies are stored in the bucket before washing..

Like Bath, I get really frustrated (not with my child, but the circumstance) of changing, then to find a poop a few mins later in a sposie. There goes another 50 c into landfill..

I have a mix of MCN and flats, and wash every day. I could probably easily go 2 days before washing, but leave that for emergencies.. It probably adds about 10 mins to my day of hanging out, and then I sort them out when the kids are in bed.

My parents are a bit skeptical, but if I don't have any sposies, then they either have to buy them or use cloth. When I had DS, my MIL really embraced the cloth, on the days she was watching DD.

You might be a rarity when you go out, but none of my friends give me a hard time. I respect that they are happy to buy and use disposables, and they respect that I am happy to wash and use cloth.

All in all, it is a lot cheaper in the long run to use cloth, and in our current circumstances, buying dispoasbles for every day use is not doable.
