[blparent] diapers

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

Are you interested in cloth diapers or disposables?  That's your first big 
choice.  Some babies are less irritated by cloth diapers than by 
disposables, but many do perfectly well with disposables.

If you are interested in disposables, the best idea is to buy a small 
package of each kind at first, just in case your baby is sensitive to one 
kind and you can't use it.  Also, I wouldn't buy many of the newborn diapers 
because your baby will grow out of them very quickly.  And forget those 
silly diapers with the slot cut out for the cord.  It's just fine to roll 
other diapers down to expose the cord as it heals.

In my experience, store branded diapers like Parents' Choice from Wal-Mart, 
Up and Up from Target, Members Mark from Sam's Club, or Kirkland Signature 
from Costco are just as good or better than national brands like Huggies and 
Pampers.  Luv's are one of the cheaper national brands, and they're 
horrible.

        Hello,
I see an ongoing discussion on cloth diapers on the list, but I'd like to 
ask  those parents who use disposable diapers for  a baby care.

Are cloth diapers less irritating for a child skin than disposable ones?

I'm just getting started,   the diapers world is huge and I would like  to 
minimize  trials and errors with my baby skin, so I think the best  way to 
go would be using less harsh diapers, no dyes, no perfumes. It seems like 
some brannds  declare that they are free of bad chemicals but in reality 
it's not so perfect.

I understand that  every child is different and some may get a rash, some 
not. Also every brand     has few product lines on the market, I'm wondering 
how to start. I think I'll need to bye a few different small packs of 
various brands. But how many? How fast  my boy  is going to over grow to a 
next size? Are boys and girls diapers are different? What brands do you vote 
for?

Thank you all for your help.

Tatyana
