I started wit sposies because I hadn't heard of MCN's and I got given heaps. After finding out about MCN's I got really enthusiastic and spent a fortune on a really wide range.
I used them for a month or 2 before I decided that I couldn't stand them and went back to sposies. I hated the smell of my nappy pail when I took the lid off, I hated the extra loads of washing and the extra folding and putting away, I didn't like the extra clutter in my boys room, cleaning pooslosions off cloth grossed me out and the disposable liners were crap, I felt sorry for Yasin trying to get around with such a huge bulky arse and waking up in the morning in such a heavy nappy, most brands didn't fit nicely under his clothes, lanolising his night nappies was yet another chore that I could do without, carrying them home and dealing with them at the end of a long day was annoying.
They were useful on the occasions that I ran out of sposies but I gave them all to SIL a while ago and I'm glad I'll never see them again.
I wanted to love cloth but those months were a nappy nightmare.
