I'm in a similar boat (disposable supply dwindling, money is tight...)<br /><br />There's so much to choose from, and it sounds like a fair percentage of cloth diapers on the market aren't really all that great.

I love Seventh Generation as well, except the dishwasher detergent. Not good at all! And I am so inspired by your using cloth diapers!!! You are really going to have to school me when our #2 gets here! I really want to use cloth!Carrienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21273161.post-36162344609855233032010-04-13T11:02:12.875-07:002010-04-13T11:02:12.875-07:00I have a very similar attitude about being green. ...I have a very similar attitude about being green. Green/Organic or not, just by being alive I have an impact on Earth, so I'm not going to go too far out of my way(or budget) to be earth-friendly. I make small efforts like using a reusable lunch box and tupperware instead of a brown paper sack and sandwich baggies. <br /><br />I haven't tried the 7thGen products, but do like Mrs. Meyers a lot. However, 409 is my go-to cleaner after seeing a few studies where it killed way more germs and bad bacteria than any other cleaning product. <br /><br />Glad to hear the cloth diapering is going well!Ericahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16098002049319726944noreply@blogger.com
