Fluff Talk Thursday!

Since I've begun using cloth diapers for my kiddos, I've had a few people ask questions about them: why, what kind, how many, how do you wash them, etc. And since Beth over at Happily Domestic is hosting Fluff Talk Thursdays, a weekly meme all about cloth diapering, I thought I would join in sometimes for any of my readers that are interested in learning more about it! After you are finished reading my post, click the Fluff Talk Thursday button at the top of my post to head over to Beth's blog and read what she and others have to say for the week.

This week's topic is cloth wipes, what system do you use?

I don't use very many wipes a day, only 1-2, so I usually just wet the wipes when I need them. My wipes consist of baby wipes, baby wash clothes, and extra regular wash clothes that we didn't use. I keep them stacked by my changing table next to a squirt bottle of my solution. I add a drop of baby wash, olive oil, and tea tree oil to about 1 cup of water. I just wet each cloth as I need them, so that I don't have wet clothes around getting smelly and mildewy. I also keep disposable wipes around for when we go out, but have found that tossing the cloth wipes into the pail with the diaper is easier than trying to have a separate garbage for disposables.

Last week's topic was showing a picture of your stash, and since we were on vacation, I missed it. Our computer isn't working right now, so I can't upload a picture, so I will just list the diapers we currently have.
