Cloth diapers

Fuzzibuns. Look for em online. Not available in stores.

Geez.

 

yeah, i was looking into them. they look pretty awesome. i have a hard time understanding the hangup.

though i suppose the potential for odor would bother him, he's really got a thing about odors...

 

Tell him from me, they reek WAY LESS than disposables.

Hemp and the fibers in question are actually antibacterial ---

seriously.

It's far easier on everyone to tip solid matter into the toilet, and toss the liner and cover into the diaper pail (which is basically empty) than it containing a degrading, wet, paper.

 

he always insisted we take the diapers out to the outside trash. thankfully our girl is mostly potty trained now. but with our first child, his mother would buy all the diapers because she got them super cheap through the hospital.

but i know they're a great idea. i really think i'm going to have to appeal to the money saved and environmental impact perspective.

 

Won't work.

For him - appeal to this - rather some slightly vinegary smelling hemp than a garbage bag full of reeking decomposing disposable diaper. THAT is where the real vile reek comes from.

 

Most people think of cloth diapers as these white rectangular pieces of scratchy cloth you have to rinse in a toilet. That is vile.

Fuzzibuns, Lucy's Hope Chest etc. are NOT like that.

 

well, i really wanna do this. i'll just have to finesse my way into it. i've never asked for much, certainly i've never asked to inconvenience him in any way. i just don't really think this is an inconvenience and that he's just got an old prejudice against it. i'll just have to get all glacial on him (not frigid, just moving inexorably forward).

 

Just buy a couple of em, and use them.
When he realises it rocks, buy more.

 

that's EXACTLY my plan...
