Day 2 with Cloth

The cloth diaper world is so new to me. I had this idea that it would be impossible to cloth diaper. I thought it was too difficult, too costly, and too much work. I am really surprised at how easy it has been to transition over from disposable to cloth. 
Showing off Redding's new gDiaper




To get us started I bought some hybrid diapers, the gDiapers.  This is only day two but so far the cons for gDiapers are not as strong as the pros. 

Don't like: 
  •  how the plastic rubs up against Redding's skin in the front. 
  •  She has a few red marks on her legs. I'm not sure if that's because of the gDiaper or if it's the way we are placing the diaper on her. 
Love:
  • The way they fit her.
  • How easy it is to take out the used pod and insert a new one.
  • Being able to reuse the shell several times before needing to wash. 
  • How easy they are to clean.
  • Easy transition from disposable to cloth. 

I do like this hybrid but I think I'm more interested in trying the AI2's. I want to be able to use the shell more than once. I want her skin to touch only soft material. I am currently trying to place an order for Softbums Echo and Omni. 

They should arrive within ten days. 
I'm excited to try new diapers until we find the perfect fit for our family.

I will be posting up some links to blogs that have been really helpful over there --->
