I LOVE cloth diapering. Really, I do. I was surprised by how many people tried to talk me out of it when I was pregnant. Thanks to several yahoo groups, I've found that I'm not the only one who gets excited about talking about everything cloth diapering-related.
My #1 favorite diaper is the BumGenius Flip diaper
. If I had to do it all over again, I would buy 1 box of the organic , 2-4 additional covers
(or you could try 1 box of the stay dry
), plus 12 additional gcloth inserts
. (That's under $150 for diapers, for babies 8-35 lbs!)
I like these because they are: economical- the covers are reusable (like pre-folds); customizable- you can put anything absorbent in the cover (including disposable inserts- like the gDiaper disposable/flushable/compostable inserts); easy to clean, fast to dry; has snaps (velcro wears out fast); and they are one-size. I've had 3 leaks in as many months- a record for us, even compared to disposables! My daughter even wears these at night without leaks!

One of the cutest options are gdiapers
, especially adorable now with their brand new diaper-coordinated outfits. These diapers are also really versatile (cloth, disposable options) and their website/customer service is impressive. On the downside, we have had numerous leaks and the velcro wears out quickly.

My only beef with this diaper is that it takes a long time to dry (a full day in the sun or 2 dryer cycles). Other than that, it's a great option.
FuzziBunz Pocket Diapers
and BumGenius 3.0
are good options. The FB diaper has snaps, the BG has velcro. I have had a fair amount of leaks with these diapers.

on a website closeout. These were great during the time that they fit my daughter, but that seemed like a pretty short window.

is worthless! My husband, a king of puns, likes to call them "The Econo-Bum-Me-Out" diaper. The included absorbnt insert is terrible at doing its job, absorbing- we've had a leak every single time (and yes, I washed these 6+ times before using). Spend $8 more dollars and buy the Flip diaper!
I'm really satisfied with our Flip Diapers, but I am intrigued about the Gro Baby diapers
. Has anyone tried these? Or have another favorite?
