I use pocket diapers as well..I use Bumgenius 3.0s and 4.0s. I like that they use velcro rather than snaps, (I found they took forever to snap all 4 or 5 with a squirmy baby) are one-size (6-35 lb) and just generally adorable. Generally, the velcro will wear a bit, but Bumgenius will send you replacement tabs once they wear down. We used disposables for first 3 months or so and had so many blow-outs with them. Not so with cloth! <br /><br />Also, with pocket diapers or all-in-ones (Bumgenius has an all-in-one as well), diaper changes are no different than with disposables. There's really no extra time until laundry time and then, it's minimal. The washing machine does the hard work!<br /><br />AS for other accessories We have 2 water-proof diaper bin liners that we keep in our Cosco diaper bin (one upstairs and one down) that we use to keep dipes in until wash day. I also have 3 smaller wet bags for the diaper bag. <br /><br />Hope this helps a bit!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32288334.post-57761646366306506032011-04-09T15:05:52.076-04:002011-04-09T15:05:52.076-04:00When I was dealing with sinus-y things while pregn...When I was dealing with sinus-y things while pregnant, I used a lot of Ricola cough drops. I'd recommend spicy foods, too, but only if you don't have heartburn problems!<br /><br />I am faint of heart...I cloth-diapered for only about 18 hours before bailing. (We had LOTS of spit-up rags after that!) And I was only diapering one child.Barb Szyszkiewiczhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00329184613713551475noreply@blogger.com
