Do you BF/Formula? BF
If BF, how long for (or self wean?)? DS1 BF until just over 12 months, DS2 almost 5 weeks so far, aiming for 12 months again.
Use Disposables or Cloth? Cloth only for about 12 months. Now I use disposables at night for DS1. DS2 entirely cloth atm.
Co-Sleep? Occasionally when couldn't be bothered getting up for 5am feed, or if unwell. Don't know how anyone sleeps with those noisy little things all the time.
Baby Led Solids? Yes.
Also......
Why Did you start using cloth? My husband and I are both scrooges, and I just don't believe the people who say cloth is just as bad for the environment as disposables are. I don't use bleach or a clothes dryer... factor that into your calculations. Plus babies look cuter in cloth nappies.
What did you start doing first? Always intended to BF and use cloth. Neither came first.
Did you find one thing led to another? I suppose BFing led to occasional cosleeping, would have had to get up and make bottles if FF so no point in bringing bub into bed.
Did you find that by doing one you spoke to other mother doing the others and were encouraged/inspired to try? No, but I think I have made other friends of mine consider cloth nappies as an option.
