We receive regular orders from our manufacturers. Most products will stock every 1-2 months; while others may stock more or less frequently depending on availability and popularity. Please note that some products are limited edition or seasonal and may not restock. Do you carry every brand? We carry many different brands and styles of diapers but we do not carry every brand/style of diaper that is on market. We try to carry the most popular diapers that my family is familiar with.

General Cloth Diaper & Product Care Questions
How many diapers do I need?
We think a stash of 20-30 cloth diapers is great but you can have more or less depending on your specific budget and lifestyle. We personally have around 30 diapers and wash 2 times a week.
What does XYZ mean?
We know some of the terms and abbreviations can be confusing. We have a blog post all about abbreviations and terms.
How do I prep my new diapers?
Congratulations, you have your new diapers and are ready to use them. Most diapers don’t need prepping but only a quick wash first. Read over the directions that may be on the tag or packaging from the manufacturer first. Some manufactures do not include this information on their products; please visit our blog for our prepping recommendations.
How do I wash my diapers?
Please refer to the manufacturer’s recommendations on their tags and packaging. For our general recommendation please visit the ABC’s of cloth diapers or our blog for my exact wash routine.
What detergent do I need to use?
Please refer to the manufacturer’s recommendations on their tags and packaging. My recommendation is a mainstream detergent similar to tide or gain powders but there are many other good detergents options.
Can I bleach my diapers?
Please refer to the manufacturer’s recommendations on their tags and packaging. For the most part bleaching isn’t necessary but does not hurt the diapers in most cases. My diapers are leaking or my diapers stink! There are many reasons why your diapers may be leaking or stinking. We’ve summarized the most common reasons for both in the ABC’s of cloth diapering.
