Do you cloth diaper your kids at home? Did you change your routine when you went back to work? What about when you go out?

My son is full time CD, for most travel, all daytrips and outings, and at daycare... but with new daycare coming we may have to switch to disposables during the workday. Bummer.

We pretty much CD unless we are going out of town for more than a day. Sometimes if LO didn't poop the day before and we'll be out all day, I'll put her in a disposable because I don't love dealing with a giant toddler poop when I'm away from the house.

Basically all the time. At home, daycare, and when we're out and about. We have only really traveled for a couple nights and we used cloth but I imagine I would go with disposables if we were on a longer trip without access to a washing machine.

Full time except for overnight (we use disposable night diapers for our heavy wetter) and when we travel. Traveling overnight (or longer) with cloth is too much of a commitment for me!

Always up to 7 months, now disposables only when we visit family (sometimes once a week for work trips. They live 3 hours away and it's less to pack.)

@ALV91711: lol. Me too! Just do it! Actually, I prepped mine this week and have just been waiting to try it at home, but we're always out and about and I've been chicken about doing it out of the house still...

G wasn't cloth diapered but P is full time, everywhere, including trips. All our future lo(s) will be CD full time as well.

We cloth diapered for two full years. I started when LO was 3 months old. He was so tiny, and I was so scared at first. Once he was in cloth, I found it hard to go back to disposables. We would use CD while running errands but stuck with disposables for all day outings and trips. I miss my LO's CD butt. We potty trained in July, and it's so hard to find pants that fit his little bare bum.

Most of the time. Just not at night or at preschool (6hrs//week).

I may be the odd one here but we send cloth diapers to daycare but not really at home. She sleeps better in a disposable and on weekends I am washing folding and we are out and about.

Everywhere except daycare. As soon as she gets home, DH changes her into cloth.

Home, daycare, short errands. I'm trying to go back to using cloth FT for longer errands and vacations.

@ALV91711: Don't give up hope! We didn't start until LO was 9 months old (for a variety of reasons) and now we absolutely love them and are true converts

I said everywhere, including travel. We have traveled without CDs, but those were long trips where we didn't have access to washer/dryer, or the washer/dryer we did have access to would have cost us more to use than using disposables

Everywhere, full time! LO started with our sitter this week, and it was a trial week for cloth for her. I'm happy to report she loves it and is considering switching her babe too!

Never have. Can't say I never will with future LOs but probably won't.

I just finished buying more to beef up my stash for daycare, going to be able to drop a full week's worth there on Monday, take home for wash throughout the week and still have a solid at home stash and good rotation. We started at 3 weeks very nervously but haven't looked back

@Beebug: Wow! That is impressive! We do daily diaper drop off at daycare *YAY for cloth allowed at daycare!*
