I'd probably use disposables if we were flying for the space saving. We preferred Earth's Best diapers when we used sposies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weekend-trip-cd-or-sposies#post-489006 Tue, 08 Jan 2013 14:07:02 +0000 heffalump 489006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would do sposies. No reason to go through all of that hassle on vacation!</p> <p>I don't think its a bad idea to try them out before you go. I really wanted to love seventh generation but they always leak for us. So we do target or pampers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weekend-trip-cd-or-sposies#post-488987 Tue, 08 Jan 2013 14:01:54 +0000 lovehoneybee 488987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only bring cloth on trips if we'll be staying with family, we drive, and I know it wouldn't be a problem to use their washer. In your situation I'd definitely do disposable. </p> <p>We usually use either Target brand or Pampers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weekend-trip-cd-or-sposies#post-488908 Tue, 08 Jan 2013 13:42:57 +0000 immabeetoo 488908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd do disposables! We had reactions to the pampers we got at the hospital. I like Naty baby nature from amazon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weekend-trip-cd-or-sposies#post-488837 Tue, 08 Jan 2013 13:19:41 +0000 autumnlove 488837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use disposables. I didn't want to bother with my mom's front loader and pack a lot of stuff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weekend-trip-cd-or-sposies#post-488828 Tue, 08 Jan 2013 13:18:01 +0000 T.H.O.U. 488828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would use disposable. I have traveled with cloth to my moms house but it was a packing issue mostly from just having enough with me not to haev to do laundry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weekend-trip-cd-or-sposies#post-488773 Tue, 08 Jan 2013 13:06:27 +0000 sotomorrow 488773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Weagle: Us too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weekend-trip-cd-or-sposies#post-488768 Tue, 08 Jan 2013 13:05:05 +0000 Weagle 488768@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We always travel with sposies.

I far prefer cloth, but it's just not very practical when we're on the road. I know some moms do manage to do cloth when they travel, so I'm sure you can pull it off if that's what you really want to do. </p> <p>We usually just pick up some Pamers or Huggies when we take a trip. I try to find the ones that are marked "Natural" or "Chlorine-free". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weekend-trip-cd-or-sposies#post-488725 Tue, 08 Jan 2013 12:52:30 +0000 loveisstrange 488725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm currently on an extended vacation with my 9 month old and we normally cloth diaper. We're doing sposies on the trip. The cloth was just too much of a hassle to deal with for me. </p> <p>We've been using Target brand and Huggies sposies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weekend-trip-cd-or-sposies#post-488715 Tue, 08 Jan 2013 12:50:44 +0000 MusicaV 488715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're going on a weekend trip in February when DS will be 5 months old. We cloth diaper exclusively (pre-folds and covers). I would love to CD on our trip, but I fear it will be difficult, mostly due to storage issues. Here's the situation:</p> <p>DH, SIL, DS and I leave Friday morning and have a 3-hour flight. We return on Sunday afternoon. We will be renting a car and staying in a hotel. On Saturday, we will be outside for at least 6 hours with limited access to port-a-potties. I will probably be by myself with DS for most of the time that we are outside. We're not sure yet if I will have the stroller with me while we are outside.</p> <p>My real issues are space in our luggage, space in the diaper bag/stroller, and bringing enough diapers so that I don't have to do laundry while we are there. I currently do CD laundry every other day. We will probably go up a size in the next month and a half.</p> <p>If I decide to go with sposies, what kind do you recommend - especially CD mamas? Should I try them out before we go to make sure DS doesn't have a reaction? Thanks! </p>
