Is washing 50 shitty arse diapers a day worth the $20 a month savings?

I seem to remember spending like $250 per month on diapers for 2 kids.

Absolutely not, and I'd pay a lot more than $20 to not have to

Just stick with pampers first

We used cloth ones for part of the time but our little girl's skin is sensitive. She also only poops 1-2 a day at most. Cloth isn't that bad

Cheaper yes but your washing machine will never be the same.

The idea of cloth diapers grosses me out. I'll pay more for regular diapers.

It gets easier

My daughter is 20 months and will be toilet training in the next couple of months. She knows when she has to poop because she hides so no one can see her.

Honestly enjoy your time as a dad and cherish. Time flies by

Don't go by that line that changes colors once it's wet. When it's sagging enough to see their crack you change it.

You will save a whole lot more than that, if used for the first 4 months. Didn’t have disposables when I had my first two.

Cloth diapers suck. But if your baby has a sensitivity to the paper diapers, then you will do whatever it takes to make them comfortable. It's rare, but I've seen babies that were raw in their crotch because of a reaction to the diaper.

What sucks about disposable diapers is that you start off buying newborn size, which is like 200 diapers for ten bucks. But by the time you're finished you will be buying a size 6 and those are like a buck a shot. Not really, but it feels that way.

For a newborn you can get pampers for about .20 eachon average. Sometimes less if you know how to find deals. That's about $60-70 a month just for a newborn and that only goes down each month. As they get older the diapers start to cost more but still under .30 each. So I'm not sure how much a diaper service costs or what the advantage is in general but it's fricking sick to me. Throw the shite away. It's too easy to throw a diaper away. You can even buy generic diapers for less than that if you wanna spend even less.

Cheaper, maybe, but not worth the mess. When my first was born 18 years ago, we used pamper/huggies etc. but we changed real quick to Wally world brand and they worked great. Every one of mine since has used those. They're about 25% cheaper.

Just hit him with a belt if he shits/pees himself. No diapers needed, he can use the toilet

Theu are something poor people tried to make popular awhile ago. Sorry but saving 20 dollars a month isn't worth carrying around bags of shitty clothes every time I want to take my kid somewhere.
