This is quite possibly the most boring thing to write about, so I'll keep it brief. Cloth diapers are fickle. The diaper inserts we use are made of hemp and other materials that are extremely absorbant. The good part about this is the reduction of "mess" in the diaper, but the bad part is that it absorbs certain chemicals in detergents. If too much builds up in the insert, the result is a very ouchy butt.
Nicole found "Rocking Green" laundry detergent which is perfect for cloth diapers. Low carbon footprint, actually an okay thing to wash your diapers with, etc. We have completely switched out our normal detergent and use Rockin' Green for everything.
So there you go. One more dynamic regarding cloth diapers that we don't normally talk about; what kind of laundry soap to use.
Join me next time when I sell out on another product. :-)
