it is actually bonkers how much we would be spending on disposable diapers if we didn't use cloth diapers.
having multiple kids makes cloth diapers so so economical

I remember when each of my kids got out of diapers, it was like a pay raise on each.
I bet! I'm looking to reclaim my time when the laundry slows down. whenever that is 😬
how do you wash them? O_o
the poop is sprayed off at the toilet and then the diapers are washed in the washing machine.
interesting, do you wash them seperately or with other non-diaper things?
I wash them separately. diapers go through a pre wash to get most of the urine and soiling out. then it goes through a hot main wash to make them very clean.
This sounds like a nightmare.
you must have a very soft, easy life if you consider washing diapers a nightmare 😆
Isn’t it a hassle to wash those things? And deal with all the poop?
lol im good on that
Maybe, fair. But… these things ought to be compostable.
with cloth diapers, there are 100% natural materials like wool, cotton and hemp. those will break down back into the planet eventually. better than disposables anyway
nothing beats the convenience of disposable diapers for sure but I'm okay spending time to clean dirty cloth diapers if that means I don't have to spend thousands of dollars on diapers while they need them.
the cost savings is worth it, imo. and dealing with poop is not an issue. poop is not a big deal when you're a parent.
My mom used cloth diapers and I remember watching her thinking this is the best we can come up with? We have 3d printers, can’t we just print disposables with bamboo fiber or something? Anyway, I’ll have to think on it.
cloth diapers have come a long way since her days.
I'd imagine the time it takes to 3d print a diaper takes longer than the amount of time it takes for a baby to go through one, lol.
Yeah, babies are no good. What were you thinking
nice. sounds like so much work compared to disposables but you get to feel good saving money and putting less into landfills. single use diapers have alot of non-biodegradeable material in them usually. thanks for sharing
