how to start wearing CD

this is actually to answer a friend that asked me how to wear CD. wearing CD is not a difficult thing to start, but first you have to have enough RM, to buy CD's that you think is affordable, effective and is according to your taste (that means the pattern or design of the CD).

a CD's worth depends on the brand and materials used for the making of the CD. there is also an organic CD which will eventually be torned or worned out. (but, hey! nothing is forever).at least it will last according to your way of usage,washing methods and washing detergents. (fact: washing detergents with bleaching factors, whitening and enzymes will affect the durability of a CD, i.e will make the CD less durable coz the factors above will make the CD easier to be torned)

firstly, wearing a CD needs to have the mindsetting from YOU yourself whether you are really determined to change to cloth diapers or not. you need to know whether you are capable of handling all the problems and questions regarding to wearing cloth diaper.

next, you need the support of the people surrounding you.e.g your hubby,mother,babysitter,etc.(the ones that are going to help change the diaper when you're not around,ahem ahem..:))

then, the next thing to do is to find the best resource for the best CD that YOU can afford to buy and feel easy to handle. there are more than one type of CD to choose from, so be sure that you know which one that suits you and your babysitter. there are some online shops that i've already put in my blog, you can search it there at you right hand side which categorizes as the window shopping/shopping list. right now i'm using one size pocket diaper, which can be adjusted to 3 sizes, which are for S,M and L. it can be used for baby up til 13 kg (but, also depends on the size of you baby's thigh). currently, there's a new pattern of cloth diaper which is AI2 which means all in two. the Ai2 has the same concept as AIO, but better, where the insert can be removed and replaced with new ones within seconds. the outer piece can be reused around 2 to 3 times before taking it to the washing machine. which means that less washing and cheaper. for instance you can check out the example of an Ai2 at this page

basically, you need to have some budgets that you think you can afford to buy and read and think of the advantages and cons of the types of cloth diapers that you've known.
