Hi From Massachusetts! - Cloth Diapers & Parenting Community

Currently I use disposables. I know I know, that is why I am here.

My daughter, Julia, is almost seven months (dob: June 9th) and disposibles are expensive. I currently do not work unless being a Full Time Mommy is considered a full time job. I just graduated from a career school with first honors from medical assisting. Looking for a job after the start of the new year. My babys father and I are not together and are in the process of going to court for child support.

I believe cloth is the way to go as I am also on government assistance at this time. Granted I could make the father pay for formula AND diapers however I'm too nice and still find ways to save a few dollars in the long run.

I have a friend who has a son who is a year and a half and she uses cloth. I got some ideas from her. She is currently pregnant with her second child.

Ive done research online about all the different brands and types of cloth diapers and I still have NO IDEA on which kind to choose. I'm leaning towards AIOs or pocket. Im just so confused. A friend told me about this site so hopefully as I find my way on this site I can buy some second hand to see which I like better and go from there.
