My wife has a work dinner so im taking my 15 month old, whose bed time is 6:30, to a 7:10 first pitch royals v. rays game just so I can get a glimpse of young fireballer Yordano Ventura. Now that is fucking great parenting.

Have you had the pleasure of rainbow loom rubber bands all over your house yet?
these are a real pain in the ass, eh?
I went to a cloth diapering class this morning. Awar had already convinced me that it's a good idea, but now I'm completely sold. It's time to continue stock-piling cloth diapers.

We use the Flip ones and they've been great. Good decision to go cloth.
Have also found that stripping the diapers (washing on a double rinse cycle with bleach and blue Dawn) about once a month really helps with stains/smells/absorbency.
Truth
Also, chic and Awake. Our kids are out of our cloth diapers and a lot of them are still in really good shape. I know so much about cloth diapers depends on the shape/fit of the diaper/kid, but since y'all are in GSO, if you're interested in some cheaper used cloth diapers, let me know. We're heading to FL for spring break, but when I get back, I can look through them to see which ones are like new and usable. We mainly used bum genius (adjustable) and Swaddlebees, but had a lot of others as well (seriously, I think we have 3= paper grocery bags full of different varieties). Let me know if you're at all interested.
oh yes. i took her (7 year old) to the store to buy her first loom, dialed up the directions on youtube like the clerk advised, sat with her and figured out how to get her started, and consoled her when she got frustrated and cried when they didn't do right. Then she just figured it out and went off, making bracelets for everyone. She loved that thing, and is now totally over it.
Two questions:
1. What detergent/wash process do you cloth diaperers use?
2. Have any of you taken any childbirth prep/newborn keeping alive classes in the area that you would recommend?
