Making the change to cloth diapers? - Part deux
Making the change to cloth diapers
After much research – reading reviews, forums, checking prices – I’ve finally purchased some cloth diapers to try out!
I first read lots of reviews…
…then I listed down the brands that I wanted to try, as well as the types (AIO & pocket – easier as my mom helps me to change Elena’s diapers as well)…
…then opened several tabs on Firefox to the shops that I was planning to buy from:
1. Mybabypitstop
2. Lil’ Danzell
3. Ezmotherhood
4. Tiny Tapir
5. Mia Bambina
…and compared all the prices…
…and shopped and shopped and shopped!
3 Blueberry Minky Bamboo Velour

3 Bitti D’lish AI2

2 Cushie Tushies AIO

2 BumGenius 3.0

1 Organic BumGenius AIO

1 Grobaby Shell Set

1 Rumparooz G2

1 Dream Eze AIO

1 Large and 1 Regular Wahmies wetbag, some inserts and boosters and wipes and 12 raw silk liners later, my bank account started to take on the appearance of one chicken egg…
OK, perhaps I didn’t purchase ‘some’, I purchased ‘quite a lot’…haha!
But compared to the stash that some cloth mamas have, this is nothing (consoling myself and my bank account)!
My Bitti D’lish CDs arrived in the post today, and the rest of the diapers should be coming in the next two days or so. Will post pictures once all the diapers have arrived.
Next…to wash them for the first time, then my darling girl can have her little tushie covered in organic cotton and minky!

Do share about how they turn out when you do try them out (I might need to pick your brain when it comes to where to buy them!!!). I got two but since my little one isn’t even here yet, I can’t tell you how she finds them.

Yes yes, do share how the cloth diapers turn out for your Elena. Am looking forward to reading about them, before making a purchase.

Lisa Delzer: Thanks, Lisa!
Mei: I will! Haven’t had a chance yet as I want to wait till we’ve moved to our new house at the end of July…everything’s in a bit of a mess at the moment…
Joky: Haha, don’t worry, I will!
Giddy tigress Bitti d’lish are so cute aren’t they? It was so hard to stop myself from purchasing more!

Hie…may I know which website did you purchase your cloth diapers from? Which website is cheaper?

Shu-yin: The websites I purchased the diapers from are listed above. Different websites have different prices for the same brand, that’s why I bought from so many different online shops.
