Cloth diapers

Well, i am not sure if this subject has been brought up before. I tried looking. Oh well.

I like the cloth diapers and i am trying to decide where to buy them. Should i get the flat or the contoured? I have had both, but i am looking for some input and experiences with either one. Which do you like best and where is the best place for the $$$. I have also used pins and i like the old fashioned way of pinning, but i know you can get velcro and pull-on. I like my diapers thick!! I will use stuffers to make them thicker. Velcro seems sooo much easier! Ideas??.comment's??

I have to say that cloth diapering beats using disposables hand s down, but is more expensive at the outset. I have never bought a "real" diaper, becuse of expense and the fact that there does not seem to be any place around here that sells them - don't want to order of Internet. I have used, quite successfully, larger flannel receiving blankets. They can be folded to fit just right, and you can make your diaper as thick as you like.

The thing about cloth, though, is don,t make them TOO thick - uncomfortable, saggy, and very hard to pin properly. Also, invest in good plastic pants. Enjoy your cloth diapers - they are fun to wear and use.

You can look at it this way. Couture diapers give a more comfortable less bulkiness feel in between the legs, better for out and about walking. Flats can give you more bulk and coverage when you need it, like overnight.

You might want to have a look at some Snappi fasteners for cloth too. I like them.

Or just put Snappi fasteners in a google search.

The size 2 (toddler) is a better suited adult size.

Thanks Luvs it, but what do you like? ..and what is your experience??

I'm an AB/DL, and wear diapers because I like them, and enjoy it. I don't have any medical need, just to be clear.

Cloth is my first choice, because that's what I grew up with, but I do like and use disposables.

It usually depends on my mood what kind of diaper I will put on, or how thick I will make it.

I like flat fold diapers first and foremost, I like the bulk they give in between my legs. And that's what was most popular back in the heyday of cloth diapers too. I do like to be able to feel pretty well diapered when I wear them, meaning thick. But there is a line you can pass on how thick you make your diapers, my feeling. I don't like to go so far, as to make them so thick it would be unrealistic. Some people do like that, not me is all. I like to use layers to make my diapers thick, or add stuffers. That way, they can wash up easier, and dry much better.

I have all manner of cloth diapers to choose from. Over the years, I've collected many different types. Pull on, snap on, flat and contoured, pin on, Velcro, rectangles, squares, terry cloth, you get the picture.

I like to try different things, and experience what it feels like.

Sometimes I like to wear couture diapers with stuffers, so it makes my crouch and bum really puff out under my plastic pants. And other times I will do the same with rectangle diapers, so I get an all around fat diaper under my plastic pants.

Sometimes, I will wear a diaper based on how it looks under a baby outfit.

Hi luvs it, depending on your waist size.there is a diaper company called green mountain cloth-eez.com they make birdseye diapers that are organic and like 35'x35 each.these are quite absorbant and wash up and dry quickly.they also have a toddler green edge prefold organic diaper very absorbant makes for perfect soakers in the middle of your diapers.i use a lot of these and love them.they are a little exspensive but worth every penny.

Velcro are OK if you're diapering up to go to bed, but for me, they just won't stay fastened if I'm up and moving around so I need pins (also, the pins make me look and feel more babyish and that adds to the fun).

As for diapers, gee, I probably have the most esoteric collection of them there are because I've bought them one or two at a time over the last ten years. Suppliers come and go, and as a result I have lots of different kinds.

But, as a rule, I go with the thick flannel contour on the inside, I then take a thick flannel pre-fold and fold it lengthwise into thirds and stick that in the middle for a soaker, then on the outside use a thin flannel contour that's a bigger size than the rest to wrap around the others, hold them in place, and pin. If time permits I'll shoot a few photos and put them in a gallery so you can see what I'm talking about.

Also I went out years ago and bought a pair of white suspenders that I use when going out or bopping around the house so I don't have to keep pulling them back up.

I'm thinking about going to cloth diapers to wear at least some of the time. Can anyone explain the feeling of wearing a cloth diaper and the rubber pants? Wear can you buy the cloth diapers or the rubber pants?

Oh my gosh, I am getting such a rush just thinking about it. I gotta try, I just gotta!

It feels WONDERFUL. I wear flannel diapers and just love the feeling of the bulky, soft material all around me. Compared to disposables, cloth diapers will absorb the pee and the wicking action causes it to spread all around. So even though I wet mine in the front, soon, the entire diaper becomes wet. Also, being a guy, I love the way that as the flannel gets wet, it tends to shape itself around me. And I love getting myself off in them. Squirt a little bit of baby lotion in there and cloth diapers feel as good to me as when I'm making love to my wife. I also love the way they smell. Sometimes, if possible, I'll wear them with my plastic pants pulled down enough that the pee starts to evaporate. I love pee and the smell of this is great (and it really makes me feel like a baby). I also love plastic pants. There's just something so babyishly humiliating about wearing plastic pants. Also they come in a wide variety of colors and patterns so you can buy the ones that make you feel the most babyish.

You mention in your profile that you are in your 50s. Well you're about my age, and this means that as a little kid, you most likely wore cloth diapers. I've noticed that--as a general rule--most ABDLs tend to love the kind of diapers we wore when we were babies the first time around. So, by all means, buy yourself some cloth diapers, plastic pants, and diaper pins. You will love them.

There are many places on the web where you can buy them. Honestly, I haven't bought any for quite a while (another good thing about cloth diapers--if you take care of them the same ones will last you for years). But when I do, I get most of my things from baby-pants.com but there are many other suppliers. Some tend to be more "adult incontinence" oriented and others are very ABDL aware. Feel free to PM me if you have anymore questions.

Go for the cloth Pee Intoxication! Cloth diapers give lots of great sensations. Please have a look at my earlier post, # 3 ( and 5) for places on line, that are good. There are lots of good ones I like, and you can get plastic pants to go along with too. Good luck, and if you go for cloth, let us know how iy works out for you.

Cloth forever. I was born pre-WW2. Nothing but cloth then and it was so comforting to wear cloth diapers after I was supposed to be trained. Cloth holds so much more, and is not big deal to wash. I wear fairly tight black boxers then night diaper with two fillers, then stretchy pants to hold it all tight and prevent the velcro from splitting apart, and plastic bloomers over this to bed every night. No messy or wet sheets. The stretchy paints are key to holding everything secure and tight - I get these separately from Age Comfort: http://agecomfort.com/products/abena-abri-fix-soft-cotton-m-with-legs.html

I have never tried cloth, but when I do I want those super adorable Japanese designs that button up and tie the waistband for a super tight fit, anyone know what I am talking about and where to find?. Add a pair of these and I think I will have died an gone to heaven

Hi Nappy Trooper, you might have a look here, for the Japanese cloth diapers you want. I don't know much about the site, never dealt with them, but you can have a look.

Good luck!

I've gone into terry diapers for my bedwetting.

I fasten them using Boingo fasteners, which work a lot like disposable diaper tapes. A lot less complex than pinning, which I am terrible at.

If I have one problem with terry diapers it's that it's impossible to be discreet in terry - but I would rather be known to be diapered and not leak, than leak and then be known to be diapered.
