dprby162 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Well, I've been wanting to for a long time, so I finally ordered. http://www.adultclothdiaper.com/PRODUCTS_2/CLOTH-DIAPERS_2/Daytime-Adult-Prefold-Diapers Any advice for a new cloth wearer? Link to comment
warpiper Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I got the night version of the birdseye leakmasters, and I heart them so much! The biggest thing about cloth is getting it to fit right. There is a good link off the ADC site on how to fold them. http://www.adultclothdiaper.com/Adult-Diaper-Folding I find that style 2 works best for me and it puts more bulk in front where a guy would need it. Whatever you do, make sure you use proper diaper pins and not regular safety pins or something, i made that mistake and it didn't work and that put me off cloth diapers for a few years. Plastic pants are also a must, but I assume you already know that. Good luck! -piper Link to comment

dprby162 Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 Thanks for the link on folding. I will try the second one. I ordered pins from ACD too, so they should be good. Looks like they shipped today. What's the difference between birdseye and gause? I ordered birdseye. Already own plastic pants, so I'm good there. Can't wait to get them! Link to comment
Diaperteddy Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 The difference between birdseye and gauze: birdseye is a little more stiff and heavier than gauze, birdseye last longer, I use double thickness pull on terry-towelling pants with 2 terry diapers 30 x 30 inches folded to 10 x 30 inches as stuffers. The difference between daytime and nighttime diapers: Nighttime diapers hold more. Link to comment
dprby162 Posted August 13, 2011 Author Share Posted August 13, 2011 My order came today. It's official. I am now wearing the first cloth diaper since I was a baby, 27 years ago. I gotta say, it's pretty awesome! I can hardly wait to put it to use. 1 Link to comment
