The Best Cloth Diaper? It is a "System"


!±8± The Best Cloth Diaper? It is a "System"

The best cloth diaper comes as one piece of a two-part system. In the new diaper vernacular, the two-part systems are known as "pocket diapers," "all-in-one's," or "AIO's" as the cool girls commonly refer to them.

Comfortable, convenient, Earth-conscious, and just too cute for words, the very best cloth diaper comes in a system made-up of a waterproof and washable outer "pocket" or "wrapper" and an interior liner. Different brands link pockets and liners with different materials: some snap, some just slide in, and some use Velcro. Most systems give you a choice among pre-folded cloth liners, fold-it-yourself cloth liners, organic disposables, or organic flushables. All systems and liners change quickly and easily, and they resist leaks and "blow-outs." Pocket diapers require checking and changing more often than old-fashioned disposables, but they require far less attention than traditional cotton diapers.

Mothers appreciate pocket diapers not only for their undeniable convenience, but especially for their style. Moms find pockets for their daughters in all the season's fashion-forward colors, stripes, patterns and prints; for special occasions, mother and daughter also may select prim lace trims or more edgy accessories and ornaments. Buying pockets for their rough-and-tumble sons, mothers may choose "cargo" designs-pockets on the pockets, heavy-duty canvas or corduroy models in a woodsy palette, or camouflage prints in three different color schemes.

Organic disposable liners go down the toilet or into the compost heap. Organic cloth liners soak like the old-fashioned kind, but they require no bleach or other harsh chemicals. Manage your soiled liner according to the manufacturer's instructions, because they sometimes defy common sense. Flushables, for example, require liberal application of a "stir stick." You and the stir stick break-up the absorbent paper material before flushing, so that it does not clog the toilet or back-up the main sewer line. You may throw organic disposable liners into the trash, because they contain no plastic. Unlike old-fashioned disposable diapers that biodegrade in about half-a-millennium, organic disposables disintegrate in approximately four months. Most organic disposables break down in ordinary garden composting, and many cities offer large-scale composting. Your organic disposable joins millions just like it, and a waste management company does the dirty work.
