And We've Made the Switch

May 2009
Well we've made the switch to cloth! I decided to buy 21 bumgenius 3.0's in an assortment of super cute colors. They're a little bulkier than disposables but not nearly as bulky as the prefold and cover diapers we used for a little while with Jack. Nohea doesn't seem to mind the change. Everyone has taken an active roll in the big switch and that makes it easier. It's a nice feeling to be doing something that benefits the environment and saves us money :) That's a definite plus. We have to use a detergent that has no added fragrances, brighteners, enzymes or whiteners in order to keep the diapers in the best and most effective condition. We finally found a soap at Whole Foods called Eco Sense. It's made with coconut oil... who knew?! We're happily on our path to a greener lifestyle!
