What are the benefits of going full cloth diaper?

Do you really want to wash shitty diapers?

No argument needed. Let your wife clean them along with everything they leak on for a couple weeks and she will abandon the idea on her own.

Your washing machine will stink, your clothes will stink but your wife will be a moderator of a cloth diaper Facebook group, so there’s that.

Gives you something to brag about in the mom circles

Same thing I told her.

We have a "utility wash" in the garage, a separate washer/dryer set from our main set.
She plans to use this for the diapers. She is becoming kray.

I think environmentalists and low income go the route of cloth.
Cost savings/environmental impact of diapers.
I thought about it, but the idea of washing those things full of stanky poo....
I mean I could barely change a disposable diaper without dry heaving sometimes...

I can't think of anything positive. It's just nasty. Agree with letting your wife handle them all if she wants to go that route. They are messy, stinky, drippy, leaky, take more time to deal with with getting the yuck out of them before getting them in the washer. That's time you need to catch a few winks when you can. Wait until she's up changing a poopy diaper in the middle of the night with little sleep.

When my first child was born I was against disposable diapers.
It took one day for me to change my mind.
It’s boarderline child abuse,and parent abuse as well,to deal with those nasty things.

Horrible idea. Baby diapers are engineered to get moisture away from the skin. It’s a marvelous invention. If you go cloth you won’t keep up with the diapers. The stink will be your household smell for a time. The baby will constantly be waking with a wet diaper and diaper rash. Do you live outside in the elements ?

I’d hate to have residual shite in my washer when I washed other clothes .. that’s just me

along with cloth diapers is a plastic covering (similar to a shower cap). It’s hot for the baby and facilitates more rash.

Yep. I changed shitty diapers too for a few years. No way I'd want to wash and reuse them. Plus the elastic on the disposable ones prevents leaks.

I can think of one benefit: it will greatly decrease the urge for any future babies.

Diapers are pretty expensive too. I seem to remember spending a couple hundred a month on Huggies

Cloth diapers are expensive up front (nobody uses the cheap white ones you fold yourself). Chicks on my pregnancy board are spending upwards of $30 per diaper because they’re “so cute.” The amount of water used to wash them offsets any environmental benefit.

I'll gladly pay extra to not wash shitty diapers.
