We did register for 7th generation disposables to use at first, and great to know now that there is a possibly better alternative!Ruby at Breathedragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17113512869394910128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4714398462016533571.post-65368194990256809342010-09-15T17:11:04.853-04:002010-09-15T17:11:04.853-04:00We are planning to cloth diaper with our twins but...We are planning to cloth diaper with our twins but with a diaper service.

We also have a service here in CA called "Earth Baby Diapers" and they use the nature care diapers but they also drive out to my house once a week and pick them up and then compost them for me. It's fabulous. It's like paying a diaper service but getting to use disposables. And all of the diapers are composted. I get newsletters telling me they diverted $7,000 pounds of diapers from landfills for this week. Makes me SO happy and they work great. Here's the website if you're interested. Like I said, this is in CA but they might have something similar in NY...<br /><br />http://www.earth-baby.com/home.phpFor the Long Haulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05844179491237413679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4714398462016533571.post-65083246256536415432010-09-14T15:19:34.843-04:002010-09-14T15:19:34.843-04:00Very cool on finding a green option that works.

I just signed up for Amazon Mom and it appears that your diapers are part of their 30% off program.Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14400365286382770809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4714398462016533571.post-87028294074333963272010-09-14T14:00:31.867-04:002010-09-14T14:00:31.867-04:00We use the GroVia hybrid disposable/ cloth for day...We use the GroVia hybrid disposable/ cloth for daytime and daycare. The inserts are flushable and compostable, but we can't flush them due to old plumbing so they go in the trash in a biodegradable trash bag. It's amazing how much less waste they create than a regular disposable. For overnight, we use Earth's Best which are a chlorine free, fragrance free and a bit greener than a regular disposable. They hold 12+ hours of pee overnight.nutellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13661028395569948111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4714398462016533571.post-54682304097180191582010-09-14T13:30:39.761-04:002010-09-14T13:30:39.761-04:00I liked reading this post and am all for 'bein...I liked reading this post and am all for 'being as green as reasonably possible' under the circumstances. However, just because I know you have quite a few other local readers, I have never had issues putting poopy diapers (we don't pre-rinse, etc.) into communal washing machines in 2 NYC buildings and have heard much the same from the other cloth diapering moms I meet out and about. We hang dry everything except sheets and towels in our apartment.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15243054875237959038noreply@blogger.com
