4 Reasons to Cloth Diaper

I've mentioned before that we are cloth diapering my daughter.  I wanted to cloth diaper my son, but felt intimidated by all the options and chickened out.  Well, I took the leap with baby #3 and am so glad I did!

Here's four basic, legit reasons you should cloth diaper your babe.

1. Better for environment.

Disposable diapers are estimated to take over 500 years to decompose in a landfill, but last year the US threw away over 18 billion diapers.

2. Better for wallet.

You can buy all the cloth diapers your baby will ever need for $200-300 or less.  You can likely even reuse them for your next child!  Granted, cloth is typically an upfront cost, but disposable diapers will cost the average person over $2000 per child.

3. Better for baby.

Cloth diapers contain chemicals.  While major brands claim the amount are so small they're irrelevant, the point still stands that they're there.

4. Super cute!

Cloth diapers come in a plethora of colors, prints, and styles for all sorts of budgets.  After everything else that cloth diapering has to offer, the cuteness is just the cherry on top!
