    Flats and Folds

    That seems very sensible. Can you tell me your sources for flats? Those at AdultCloth Diaper are 2 and 4 layer. Have to consider how much clothesline I have too. Thanks.

    Flats and Folds

    Anyone here use flats for diapering. If so what fold do you use? Wondering if its worth the bother. I'm using prefold for now but would like easier washing and drying. My HE washer does not do a good job, it uses so little water I don't get a good wash or rinse with the thick diapers.

    Cloth prefold

    I have been wearing cloth at night for about 3 weeks now, both contour and prefolds with boosters. I am surprised I do not get leaks, and I use diaper covers rather than plastic pants. I use a bed pad just in case. Cloth is has amazing wicking quality.

    My adventure into cloth diapering.

    I have been at this for a year or more slowly gathering information and trying different products. I have come to a point where something seems to be working and I wanted to put it out there - also it would be nice to get feedback. I am a DL and also have a condition where I have to pee...

    Cloth Boosters

    What a great idea, I have never tried that. I have tried the other combination, disposable inside cloth to get more absorbancy, but did not work well.

    A newbie saying hello

    Welcome D’nD to Adisc. Thanks for sharing your story! Occurred to me it must come with challenges to be 24/7 and to travel and to get supplies especially before the days of instant shipping. Selections must have been limited. For myself I’m 75 and only got into it when frequent urination...

    Need Some Recommendations

    The new Molicare arrived and looks as equal or better quality. They have the same velcro tape and cloth backing. Sizing is different so I can no longer use the small in the replacement for Super Plus which was the feature I liked as it was not bulky. I got the Premium Elastic which comes in...

    Need Some Recommendations

    I just discovered Molicare changed their naming, and maybe the product - will find out when I order. I could not find my fave Premium Slip Super Plus, is now called Premium Elastic Supreme. Go to Parent giving website, they give you the old and new names

    Night time accidents

    Your subconscious is at work, knows you have a diaper on. But I am finding this is not reliable, for myself anyway- which is resulting in some wet beds. This is a long story but briefly I have had for years very frequent urination, but don't sleep soundly with a diaper on. So I am awake 6-8...

    Cloth diaper suggestions

    Thank You for folding drawing!:giggle: Thinking of getting flats as the prefolds take too much energy to dry, kind of defeats the purpose of not adding to the carbon footprint. Its great when the sun shines though, they dry pretty fast outside on a line. What I have is the CTDC 4-10-4. I...

    Cloth Diapers, practical & reliable at all?

    I just got a delivery today from CTDC, my first foray into cloth. I hastily put on a prefold with soaker, that was pretty exciting, and I needed to figure out how to fold them; much to learn there. After a few hours and what I guess is about 18oz I dont think I will reach my goal for nighttime...
