Taking the plunge! and a question about wipes...
I've done it! I've ordered cloth diapers. :D
Starting out with prefolds, so we'll see how that goes. I can't afford the "fancy" diapers, and the prefolds, with a good cover look like a pretty nice system, for not too much money. I can't wait to get them and see how they work! No doubt I'll be back in here regularly with questions, etc.
Actually, I have one to start with - cloth wipes. I'm planning on switching to them, because it seems simpler to throw everything into the laundry, rather than sorting out laundry and garbage. Plus it's cheaper, and less garbage. Here's my question: I've seen a product called "wipes cubes" which is a cube of aloe vera, vegetable oil glycerin, lavender essential oil, and tea tree oil, which you dissolve in water, and use to soak your wipes before using. Can I put a bunch of cloth wipes in my disposable wipes dispenser (like a plastic kleenex box, sort of), make them damp with the solution, and then carry them around like that, just like my disposable wipes? It would make things much simpler for me. Can you foresee any issues with this? The tea tree oil should keep mould from growing, I think. What set up do you use for cloth wipes? Do you use them when you are out?
Thanks!
