I used cloth nappies till Kameron was 18mths old. The reason behind this was I stopped work when I was 4.5mths pregnant as being casual I was in and out of jobs all the time and it was becoming stressful. Anyhow lol it meant we were pretty strapped for cash and couldn't comprehend throwing money into disposable nappies every week when cloth was available to use.
It meant I had to purchase Napisan, Lux flakes and nappy liners and wash every 2nd day with nappies soaking daily but it just seemed to save so much money. As nappy liners could be washed too and I'd get 4 or 5 nappy changes out of one liner. (the better ones).
We did have disposables on hand for when we went out, so we didn't have to carry around a dirty cloth nappy with us. Also Andrew wasn't very good at cloth nappies and would resort to a disposable when he got mad at trying to do it up
Oh should add with the next one I will be doing the whole cloth thing again.
