[blparent] Diapers - Reuseable? Or, disposable?

[Miranda Borka]

Hi Angela,
Thanks for the info! My concern about cloth diapers is the need to throw the entire diaper away, rather than only the liner. At least that's the way I understand it anyway. Someone, please correct me if I'm wrong. When searching Walmart, I also only saw cloth diapers that use pins. In my personal opinion, this could be frustrating to fight with pins and not accidently poke your baby.
Thanks again, and I'll search for the forums for sure!

In Christ, Miranda

Hi, Miranda,

I don't have kids yet, but I recently did a lot of research on the 
diaper question, because I love planning.:)  There are several forums 
in which parents talk about which diaper options they use and 
why.  It might be helpful to do a search for those.  If I could 
remember them, I would send you the links.

I was really interested in the G diapers, too, but they didn't get 
good reviews on the forums I looked at.  People said they are harder 
to use than cloth diapers, and they leaked for a lot of people.

Hope this helps.

Angela
