Real Diaper Week!! Sept 19-29 on Etsy.com

Yes, I know that's longer than a week but we wanted to be sure to get both weekends so everyone can get the chance to try out cloth for their special ones. Etsy Cloth Diaper Team is running this and most of our members should be participating. This promotion is an excellent way to get familiar with the newest types of cloth diapers. They are definitely not like they used to be! They are now as simple as disposables (some are easier if you ask me :D ). They last for multiple children if you care for them. They are also much less expensive in the long run. Trust me-I've been using cloth on Nikolas since we left the NICU (over 4 yrs ago) and only spent about $550 on diapers plus maybe $300 in washing and care for 4+ years-that includes the energy, laundry soap, etc. I thought since he's gonna be in diapers indefinitely why not. I mean honestly, who wants to sit on paper 24/7? (think about how yucky that monthly disposable pad feels!)

There will be lots of different promotional listings. Everyone has something special to offer. Check out our team blog for more specifics and links.

I cannot encourage you enough to just give cloth a try. It's soooo simple and easy to do now. No more wet pails of water or dunking in the potty (unless you just want to). Many of us have helpful links available to teach those who are new, or just want a refresher course, how to care for their new diapers. All of us are also willing to answer questions so just contact us! We'll be happy to help you choose the best fit/style/type of diaper for your lifestyle. :D
