Words

Words are used to express what you are feeling, and what you are thinking. Words are used to hurt people, and to lift them up. Eventually, however, words lose their meaning. They have lost their meaning. You can only hear the same thing so many times before it doesn't even mean anything anymore. I'm sorry. Lets fix this. I won't do it again. But we will, and we do. When does this vicious cycle end? How can I fix this? Does a fix ever come? Or is it just meant to be broken and that's it. The end? It's the same problem, the same thought, just expressed a million different ways.

BumGenius All In One One Size Cloth Diaper Review.

Thanks to a very good friend of mine I have finally began to cloth diaper. I have wanted to for over a year now, I just haven't had the deposit big enough to get us started. This is my review of the BumGenius AIO One Size Cloth Diaper.

I immediately fell in love with these diapers. They are soft and come in a assortment of cute colors what you can't find with disposables. The all in ones have an attached insert, so they are really the simplest of all cloth diapers.  The ones I got have snaps instead of velcro which I really like. The elastic is very good in them and since some of them were used it tells me that the elastic is very durable. I have heard of this diaper rubbing the inside of the legs raw, however I have not encountered that problem, thus far.

Also, I was kind of wondering, before I started cloth diapering if they would feel wet. After changing a wet diaper I felt that the wetness gets absorbed by the bottom layer and is not sitting on your babies skin.

Washing the diapers is a breeze and this is the best method I found that works for me. I pre-rinse on cold, then wash on hot with about a tablespoon of my regular detergent and a little bleach every other wash.

Thank you Sarah for finally getting us on the cloth diaper train. Not only will this save money but cut back on diaper rash! You can read about Sarah's life on her blog.
