Lots of diapers!

At my daughter's last doctor's appointment, I was advised to use disposables on her due to a blister-like rash she had developed. As soon as I switched the rash went away. I'm not sure what it was about the cloth diapers that brought about a bad rash, but I switched temporarily. I was a little worried about the cost and the harm I was causing to the environment for using disposables. Obviously my daughter's health and well being are important so the cons to disaposbles would have to be forgotten.


Well the rash is clearing up but I was able to get some diapers for free with coupons and sales, especially with my CVS extra care bucks. I was down to my last pack of diapers and I decided I'd finally go back to the cloth. Then after visiting my grandparents this past weekend, I now have 3 cases of diapers! My uncle left them at my grandparents for me to take home, he saved them from the landfill and figured someone would use them!


All 3 cases are Pampers, 2 of them are a size 4 and for boys (but it doesn't matter!) and the other one is a size 5 for girls. I happily took them because it saves me money on hot water and detergent. Yes I will contributing more to the landfill, but they were headed there anyways, might as well use them right?


I also found more diapers! Today while I was digging out our Christmas decorations and artificial tree (hey, every little bit helps!) I found an old pack of diapers from my son! They are a few years old, but there's nothing wrong with them. I didn't use them with my son because by the time I was given them, he was already too big.


So now I have tons of diapers and I will be saving a lot of money. Now, if only I could sell her old smaller cloth diapers and covers, it'd be even better!
