I'm just surprised you've never heard of cloth diapers.

I can't believe so many here seem to not know what cloth diapers are or that they are weird or something. Disposable diapers are relatively new. They weren't really around until the 1970's.

You also need the rubber underwear to go with it.

My wife and I did it for our first when we were both in grad school and poor. It sucked. It was disgusting. Constantly spraying shite out of diapers into the toilet, you can imagine how often you slip up and it sprays shite water somewhere else.

Hell no. My wife tried these abominations for one day. Not even a full day just until the first crap my son had.

Absolutely disgusting that there are people that are alright with putting feces and urine in their washing machine on a regular basis.

It doesn't matter what kind of savings you get, you will never get that subtle layer of baby shite out your clothes

A friend of a friend started a business in NI sewing cloth diapers using beaucoup expensive hypoallergenic material for kids who have certain skin conditions.

She has made a fortune on this. I never thought there was that big of a market for them.

frick that. I will pay whatever it takes and frick the environment and overflow landfills to make changing a shite filled diaper as quick and easy a process as possible with minimal shite handling once the diaper is removed.

It ain't that bad. Had cloth diapers for the first kid after my hippy wife talked me into it. She put a bidet hose on the toilet in the extra bathroom, and there were liner sheets, similar to dryer sheets, so you can basically just dump out a #2 and hose it off in the toilet. She had probably 20-30 diapers, some she bought used, then she resold them when we were finished with them. Totally cheaper in the long run, hold in more shite & piss than disposables, but would not recommend to someone with a weak stomach.

The new cloth diapers that snap and have inserts are easier many times, you just cant throw them away. We use a mix of both. Overnight disposables every night and disposables for long trips.

Pretty mucha thing of the past, but I am sure some eco-freak thinks they are a good idea.

They are far more expensive than using a condom.

Do you know what cloth is? Do you know what a diaper is? Put the two together

And the theory is they can be washed and reused this not having to but cases of disposables

My wife used cloth with one of our sons. She just used the cloth for pee and put a disposable on when she knew babywas due for a number two. Occasional use for the cloth is waste of time. If you actually use them they save quite a bit of money. You also have to wash the pee diapers appropriate so they don't build of a residue of soap and stink.

Subscribe to diapers on Amazon Prime. I checked prices on the same brands at Sam’s and it is cheaper to subscribe unless you buy an off brand because of the 20% discount. We spend like $35/month at most.

A month box is about right. Mine is in size 4 and about to start potty training, and we actually don’t even need as many as they send at this point.

I dealt with cloth diapers with nephews and nieces in the 70's. You do not want to have to rinse the shite out of a cloth diaper in the toilet just so you can put it in a pile with the piss soaked diapers waiting to be put in the washing machine.

Plus, there is no guiltier feeling than accidentally sticking a baby with a safety pin.
