Thanks for the suggestion! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/switching-to-cloth-diapers-today-any-tips#post-969325 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 18:12:46 +0000 Boheme 969325@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love them! The biggest help to me has been to join a cloth Q&amp;A group on Facebook to be able to ask questions when they arise. My favorite is Mimi's Cloth Diaper Q&amp;A Help. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/switching-to-cloth-diapers-today-any-tips#post-969225 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 16:59:16 +0000 bisous 969225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tororojo: Thanks! Yep-I am worried about this. I am hoping if I get the hang of it and get into a routine before I go back to work, I will stay committed to cloth! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/switching-to-cloth-diapers-today-any-tips#post-969213 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 16:50:29 +0000 bisous 969213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@skibobrown: @runsyellowlites: @Lindsay05: Thanks!<br /> @mewtill: Awesome tips, thanks! Lol already seeing the need to size up clothes, but that was coming sooner or later anyhow. :) And I will definitely be sunning them when weather permits.<br /> @mrsmate: Another great idea I hadn't thought of, I will definitely do that!</p> <p>So far LO seems to be wanting to really break them in! Haha lots of poopy diapers so far today. :wink: Guess that means she likes them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/switching-to-cloth-diapers-today-any-tips#post-969198 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 16:44:09 +0000 tororojo 969198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At first it was hard for us to switch over to cloth because disposables are so much easier. But you get used to it really quickly, just stick with it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/switching-to-cloth-diapers-today-any-tips#post-969161 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 16:17:10 +0000 mrsmate 969161@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I stopped putting DD in onesies or sleepers so that I could frequently check to see if her diaper was wet (she didn't mind being wet so she could go a long time bw changes if I let her). Like the others said, dive right in and enjoy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/switching-to-cloth-diapers-today-any-tips#post-969112 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 15:14:24 +0000 runsyellowlites 969112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely just dive in &amp; enjoy the fluffy bum! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/switching-to-cloth-diapers-today-any-tips#post-969110 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 15:12:23 +0000 Lindsay05 969110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yay so exciting! Just jump in! It will be a little bit of a learning curve but its easier than you think! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/switching-to-cloth-diapers-today-any-tips#post-969109 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 15:10:09 +0000 JoyfulKiwi 969109@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, dive right in! I spray our diapers with Bac-Out and I think it cuts down on the smell if you're not washing every other day. Oh, and prepare to size-up your little one's clothes. Our son needed larger pants to go over the diapers (although with the warmer weather we're happy to go without pants!)</p> <p>Also, I'd suggest hanging to dry in the sun as often as possible. We didn't because it was winter and I didn't think it was that important and now some are stained. Not a big deal, but I think the sunning is worth it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/switching-to-cloth-diapers-today-any-tips#post-969103 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 15:03:04 +0000 skibobrown 969103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just go for it! ...and if you start having leaking issues, deal with those when they come up. Leaking can come from bad fit or laundry issues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/switching-to-cloth-diapers-today-any-tips#post-969024 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 13:54:48 +0000 bisous 969024@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO turned 2 mos yesterday and is finally big enough to fit into the Charlie Banana and BG 4.0 cloth diapers! We are transitioning today (we tried a few days already but they were still a bit big). I have 18 total (plus 6 more I am going to wait to wash...not sure if we will need them since she is going to be going to 3 day/week daycare and they will only take 'sposies) and pre-washed them with Nellie's. </p> <p>Any tips from the seasoned cloth diapering mamas out there? </p>
