Do you use cloth or disposable diapers?

I have used cloth for both my kids...It's not as bad as some people think, just takes a little getting used to. I switched when my 1st was about 6 months old. =) But, it took my husband until the 2cnd child was over a year to start assisting in the diapering. He used to help alot more with disposables. He was all for cloth diapering---just as long as I handled it.

I have always used cloth diapers but have been spoiled and have a diaper service. I wouldnt use cloth otherwise.

I started cloth with Kayla to save money and Victor wanted to save the environment. With Myah there was no question, we were using cloth even though it costs a little more while she was a newborn. With baby 3 its going to be interesting since i will have two in cloth diapers.

I used disposable with my oldest. I was introduced to cloth with my daughter. A friend bought me a cloth diaper kit for 2 sizes. I did not use a diaper service, I cleaned them myself.

we've always used cloth and washed our own. With Elias we use a mix of fitted and prefolds with nylon (?) covers and wool, and a few pockets/all in ones.

I tried cloth, I still have them as backups, but I just couldn't get them clean enough so I am back to filling up the landfills :(

We've used disposables with Caden. He is almost completely potty trained and only uses a diaper at night now. If we have #2, I want to try cloth diapers. I'm ready to punt the freaking diaper Genie out the door. I have a total love/hate relationship with that thing.

Yeah, we got rid of the diaper genie when Lucca was around a year and a half. It stunk so bad I could not handle it.

I'm sad to say we use disposable.
I remember back in the day watching my mom rinse my sister's cloth diapers in the toilet. (18 years ago)
If I had time or the money I would pay for the service.
With my work at home job, I don't have the time. Plus, I don't think my hubby could stomach cleaning the cloth diapers.

Personally, I couldn't even figure out how to use the diaper genie! We use disposable

Disposable here... I love them because I dont have to keep them in the house until the service comes to pick them up, and they're so much easier to use from start to finish. :thumb
I didn't know that people still use cloth diapers until I came to Sonoma County, I thought that was only back in the days hehe.
