CD101 (cloth diapering 101)

So, this was the OTHER half of our busy busy day last 21 April!

Jenny (Chronicles of a Nursing Mom and MamaBabyLove) and I were chatting one night and she was thinking of putting together a CD101 talk. She said Maricel of Medela House has offered her place before  as venue for talks we'd like to do. Ever efficient woman that she is, she got the venue, the speakers (myself, Clarice and Abie both of Tickled Moms) and a form out in no time!

Busy Busy Day!

Today, Saturday, the 21st of April 2012 was a busy day.

Our Facebook page has been up for quite some time now, and I had noticed several people posting that they've purchased the sling, or received it as a gift, but somehow, haven't managed to use it. My friend Jenny has long been telling me to fix my video (and yes, that's part of my list!!).

But since we haven't, I thought it would be good to have a little Next9 get together for people who might need help with the ring sling! :)

The CD Revolution

This post is written for the Real Diaper Week Carnival with the theme "Real Simple. Real Diapers." We aim to educate and advocate the use of cloth diapers in the Philippines. Please scroll below to read the other carnival posts about cloth diaper styles, how to's or must haves.

I was a cloth diapered baby. So were my sisters and brother.

That's why when I had the boys, I didn't even think twice about cloth diapering them. I had flat folds by Gerber, and which I requested my aunt in the US to buy for me. Turns out that the diapers sold here in the major malls are a poly cotton blend which made them not as quick absorbing as pure cotton ones (yep, my home cotton shirts sopped up the pee of the boys faster than their diapers would! Horrors!)
