Free Fluff - A Cloth Diaper Giveaway

We are fluff fanatics in our house. I realize it's not the norm in all social circles but it's becoming quite the vogue thing to do with environmentally conscious and budget-minded parents.

I want to do my part to make cloth mainstream (#makeclothmainstream) and thought a giveaway was the perfect way to make a difference!

A randomly selected person will win their choice of 1 one-size diaper - a BumGenius 4.0 in Mirror (aqua blue), or a BumGenius 4.0 in Armadillo (gray), or a Flip Diaper Cover in Stellar (dark blue).

Cloth Diaper Wash Routine + Free Laundry Printables

It's been two months since we started using cloth diapers and I'm hooked. Having used disposables for the first few weeks (and for years before as a nanny), I can honestly say that I prefer cloth to sposies. The benefits surely outweigh the minimal inconvenience of extra laundry.

Sure it's only been a couple months but our diapers look and smell as good as new. I credit that to the awesome wash routine I'm sharing with you today.

Our Top 3 Cloth Diaper Picks

Convincing my hubby to use cloth diapers was pretty darn easy. Who would have guessed that three months later we would both be fluff fanatics in our house.

Every family has their preferences but we're obsessed with the one-size options from the BumGenius and Flip brands. Only the best on our baby's bum!

How I Got Cloth Diapers "Hubby Approved"

While I was pregnant I came up with this *crazy* idea that I wanted our little baby to be diapered in cloth. The only factor I still had to consider was my generally sane husband's reaction. How do I convince him that cloth diapering was not outdated or wacky, and would actually be the best decision for our new family?

I researched. I read. I reviewed all the options. When I finally felt confident that I had all the info I needed, I sprung the idea on Joe.
