[blparent] Diapers - Reuseable? Or, disposable?

[Michael Baldwin]

Tammy,
The wash machine does the cleaning, you would have been able to clean them
just fine, and if they stain, does it really matter.  But if stains do
matter, just set them in the sun for a while, and they won't be anymore.   

As far as the scraping poop goes, by law, in some areas, you are suppose to
do that with disposable diapers as well, and if it is not law, a lot of
solid waste landfills have policies that forbid human waste.  The water
treatment plants are built to deal with human waste.  Just think of all the
bacteria and viruses that are in the poop, leaching down in to your water.

Hi,

We use disposables, and we use our store brand ones because they're cheaper
and don't leak at all.  We thought about using cloth diapers but wondered at
the wisdom of using them because we didn't know whether we'd be able to get
them clean.  So we looked in to a laundry service and they were too
expensive for us, and less convenient.  Plus the idea of scooping poop in to
the toilet every time I changed Remus was not appealing to me at all.  So we
buy disposable diapers, and Remus doesn't even get rashes and I've never had
a diaper brake or leak in the four years I've been using the diapers.  I
used them for Colyn as well.
