This seems like a lot of fabric. Why don’t they just make them like period underwear for women? If anything just make the inner absorbing part removable and changeable, but there’s so much extra fabric around places I highly doubt will get poop or pee. Include the elastic and make it like the “fitted” diapers but don’t do the extra layers of fabric except in the center where the poop and pee will actually be. That’s enough natural, organic, “non-toxic” material for me without going overboard and being impractical unless you have special health concerns where it’s actually necessary. I just feel like it will feel bulky and restrict movement. Plus it might just be uncomfortable and possibly make you hot. It’s also worth mentioning that I think it needs to be narrower towards the private area, it’s too bulky there too…I say this because I see so many cloth diapered babies online and they seem to have their legs perpetually flared open (like a supine bound angle position in yoga) and I wonder if that will cause hip development problems (I have hip dyplasia so I’m conscientious of this especially in preventing it in developing bodies).

So nice that you pay attention to cloth diapers. We once saw a Canadian mother in a playground with a child in cloth diapers. I was curious and asked her what it was, she explained it and was so simple. She also said it was very common in Canada. We were convinced and used them for our children. In fact, we were so excited that my husband started a cloth diaper store in Europe. And now because of this little boy who wore a nice cloth diaper in the playground, in Europe we have already prevented millions of disposable diapers, isn't it special? So glad that child didn't have pants over his diaper 😉

Wool liners are so fascinating to me. I guess it’s similar to how microfleece works, to wick or to hold in moisture.

Apologies if there was already addressed in the comments! My only hesitation is getting poo on them! Is it just all about getting a perfect tight fit with the prefold so no poo messes on the wool?

Or you can use diaper pins😂. They didn’t have those type of attachments when mine were babies. You just have to make sure your fingers are between the pin and the baby. I did poke myself on rare occasion…but never once poked any one of my babies.

Thank you for such an informative video! Was questioning the plastic covers and had no idea these natural fibers alternatives existed!!

Why do you wash the wool diaper covers? Because poop/pee got on them? Can you just rinse off and do proper wash less often? Can you wash these in the machine? Would the lanolin free wash be used in the machine?

One more question.... since you cloth diapered with wool from Birth. What about the meconium? I'm so worried that our wool will stain. I have cloth diapered with meconium but it was pockets and prefolds and plastic covers. Thank you!
@ECpeesy9 ай бұрын
The meconium only touched the cotton diapers, not the wool covers. It washed out of the cotton just fine. Meconium isn’t liquidly like the newborn poo that comes later, so it’s not likely to escape the diaper. 💜 Heidi
@Rofamily69 ай бұрын
I love your videos, even after years, they are so informative! Two quick questions. First, if I lanolize our Puppi and Disana covers over night in a ball jar with a lid, would that make them more "waterproof"? Or would lanolizing the wool covers for 30 minutes, allowing to completely dry, then again lanolizing be more beneficial in getting that water resistant cover? Also, do you recommend lanolizing wool clothes for kids? shirts, pants etc? For kids who play in the rain? 😂
@ECpeesy9 ай бұрын
I don’t recommend soaking wool over night. The color might bleed and it isn’t great for the wool fibers. I would lanolize twice in a row and then let the wool dry.
