What diapers should I use??
I can't recommend cloth diapers (especially the prefold type) enough. They are cheap (about $300 will get you to potty training age, then you can use them again on baby #2), easy to clean (a prewash, regular wash, then an extra rinse. that's it- no bleach), easy to use (my husband prefers them to disposable), they don't cause as many blowouts, and they are far and away better on the environment. The amount of water that it takes to produce a disposable,let alone energy to package and ship it is far greater than the few gallons used every 3 days in a wash cycle. As an adult you actually use more water just by flushing the toilet! I can't recommend them highly enough. Oh yeah- the "ick" factor is very small, esp. if you plan on feeding.
