What is MY favorite diaper.

The one re-occurring question I get the most as a diaper store own is "what is your favorite diaper?"  At times I almost would rather NOT answer this question, because I do not want to sway anyones decision on what cloth diapers to buy.

98.9% of the time a person that is new to cloth will start out with the brands and style that whoever started talking to them about cloth diapers used.  Meaning, if I was to convert you over to cloth diapers, you would start using my favorite brand.  Now with that being said remember that not all babies are made the same, meaning one style might fit my baby well, and not fit your baby at all.

If you were to walk into my store wanting to purchase your first set of cloth diapers I would ask you the following.

1. Have you done any research on cloth diapers?
2. What brands have you been researching?
3. Which brands would you like to try?
4. How many different styles have you looked at?

If you had done any research or looking at them on line, I would show you the ones that you told me about, and I would talk with you about the differences between all the brands that you had mentions. The next step we would take, would to go over all the different cloth diapering options. (example: prefolds and covers, pocket diapers, all in one diapers, all in two diapers etc.) At this point anyone should or could be on information overload. So I make some small notes for you to go back and look and research just a little more. If you are wanting to take some diapers home with you that day, I do suggest that you purchase at least one if not two of the top two brands that you were intrested in.  I want you to be happy with your first purchase of diapers.  If you feel you made the best possible purchase, you are more willing to try more diapers later!

Have you noticed that I have still not answered the question that is the topic of this post? I want to education you on all the options you do have. I am willing to help with any questions or concerns you might have. Once you start cloth diapering it becomes an addiction. You may laugh now, but it really does. Once you start cloth diapering, you will find many on line communities of cloth diapering mamas AND dads!

More to come.....
