.. in cloth?

Pie is 17 months old. I have always loved the idea of cloth but thought I'd never keep up with the washing, I find it hard enough to keep up with clothes washing for us all....
But I have been thinking about getting some cloth pads for myself, and then I was thinking about how nice they would be and then I started thinking it would hardly be fair to keep putting disposables on her....

ANYWAY, I thought I might just try a few, she wouldn't have to be in them full time but it would have to be nicer than being in sposies full time.

But she's 17 months.. I guess we don't have that much longer in nappies at all.

I kind of really want to, but I wonder if it's silly
Have I left it too late? would you bother starting at this age?
