Saying that cloth diapers have the same environmental impact as disposables is just ridiculous. Yes, washing cloth diapers uses water, but water is a very renewable resource. By this logic, we all ought be wearing disposable clothes and eating off of paper plates with plastic forks!

gDiapers are an okay alternative, but they are expensive! Cloth diapering saves the average family about $2000 per child from birth to potty training. Not to mention the fact that cloth is more comfortable and healthier for baby's skin.

I'm doing a study on what kinds of diapers parents use and why. I would love to hear your opinions. You can take my survey by following this link:
