long time
cloth diaperers over here. we absolutely love the convenience of saving money and think cloth diaper bums are adorable. with all the fun prints available, it can definitely become addicting. we built up a pretty good stash this time around! but let me be real with you:
having postpartum depression and anxiety while cloth diapering is rough. with a wash routine of every other day, to every two days, i felt like i was drowning in laundry on top of all of my other laundry that i was doing
daily. or, i would forget to wash the diapers until day four or five (or maybe even a week at times) because we had such a large stash and never ran out, and then i'd be really upset with myself for forgetting.
then i decided:
screw it. we're switching to disposables. as much as i hate throwing a diaper out, i really need to take care of myself and not get so overwhelmed with a simple household task. so i jumped online, ordered some diapers with 2-day shipping, and had them delivered to my door; because who has time to go to the store to get diapers when one can't even wash them? me!
i feel free. it feels so good to not have to worry about washing and stripping and hanging cloth diapers to dry anymore. so i did one last strip and wash, sunned those babies out, and packed them away for the next baby.
no guilt.
let's all live a guilt-free mamahood, ladies!
oh! and what's your favorite brand disposables? we love seventh generation. share with me below!
