I am a mama who has a passion for the environment. I believe anything we can do help, big or small. I think cloth diapering is wonderful, not only are you helping Mother Earth, but you are also protecting your baby from toxic chemicals and helping your wallet. I started cloth diapering when my son was 4 months, we wanted to start earlier, but I did not know where to begin and there was no resource in our local area. Thankfully, I met a nice military mama and she showed me the ins and outs of cloth diapering. I started with 4 cloth diapers and now I have too many to count. I love it, I love everything about it and I hope to spread my love to other people!

After being introduced to cloth by a family friend I was intrigued. When we became pregnant with our third child I knew I was interested in using cloth and began researching. We decided to make the switch for the economical and environmental reasons. We soon discovered how cute and fun they could be as well. I can't believe how many fluffy years we missed out on by not using cloth on our older children.

Cloth is the softest, healthiest, gentlest way to diaper my baby. It's no more difficult than disposables. In fact, I find it easier than disposables. I feel I'm doing the best for my daughter while also helping preserve our environment so that my daughter has a healthy earth to grow up in.

I choose cloth to promote the health and wellbeing of my children and my family. Cloth diapers should be the standard, not the alternative. They are better for babies, the earth, and for a young families budget.

I first chose cloth because I had heard of the benefits of potty training. After a few weeks of cloth diapering, I became an addict and full blown advocate. I wish I would have started earlier so I could have avoided the stink of disposables and all of that garbage. Not to mention, all of the fun stuff I missed out on with cloth diapering options!

There were so many reasons, I started with the idea that I would just save money, but it became a green thing, I liked the idea of knowing I had one less thing going into the trash. Lastly, a quick bout with a sposie provided a bad reaction to the chemicals in it for my son. This makes me want to spread the word about all the wonderful benefits of cloth.

My husband and I choose cloth diapers because it is better for our baby and the environment. We don't want to expose our child to the chemicals associated with disposable diapers and want to prevent against rashes, asthma and allergies. Not only do disposables contain plastics, but they also excrete chemicals such as ammonia when the baby urinates. In addition to our baby's health, we have been supporting the movement to GO GREEN in our household. Once we learned about the benefits of cloth diapers, we expanded our GO GREEN movement into the community by convert families to cloth by creating an awareness campaign and offering a diaper service!

I feel better about the world I am giving my children.

I chose cloth when I was trying to potty-trained my DS. We want through so much training sposies that I wanted to make a change and a difference to the environment. I did a little research before I got my CDs. I couldn't believe the great choices & different type of method out there. We also had another little one in dipes. My DH & I been CDing since Feb '09 and we haven't look back! It's true when I see other saying they're addict to CDs:) I'm trying to convert my sisters but they're hesitant. I'll still spread the word to them, though!

I found the idea of throwing human waste in the garbage disturbing. Paper diapers seemed uncomfortable for baby, as well. Cloth diapers seemed simple, soft, clean, and safe for my baby.
