We got a one-month gift certificate to the diaper service, and then there was no turning back. :) But, yes, doing laundry in communal machines or in an apartment-friendly machine is possible, with a few modifications.Lauren Waynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07500733577920040395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-340457339900720695.post-89820904044962894042010-06-23T21:51:39.696-07:002010-06-23T21:51:39.696-07:00Lauren, thanks so much for sharing about the event...Lauren, thanks so much for sharing about the event and grabbing the button! I really appreciate it!<br /><br />Missy, there are a couple families who use cloth diapers in an apartment... (http://luvsjurn3.blogspot.com/). The link is for a blog I found awhile back, they use to live in an apartment and they also cloth diaper their little boy. She might have some great suggestions for you.One Southern Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02022681398463289544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-340457339900720695.post-33770967554022752322010-06-23T15:09:22.243-07:002010-06-23T15:09:22.243-07:00Gee as an old lady here, I don't know if I can...Gee as an old lady here, I don't know if I can be of any help. My sons are 36 and 39. Believe it or not and I am sure it sounds like I am absolutely ancient, but they did have cloth diapers when my kids were little. With my first, well we couldn't afford it, so I used cloth diapers. When my second one came around I could afford it, but he was allergic to them. So it was cloth diapers again. They had what they called diaper pails. It is not all sweetness and light with cloth diapers, but it is eco friendly, and I believe more comfortable on baby, but most probably more work on Mom. When you changed a pee pee diaper, you could just put it in the diaper pail. Oh yes, there was a solution you put in the diaper pail along with water. Poppy ones, well you had to dip them in the toilet and clean the out and then they too went in the diaper pail.<br />When you are ready to wash the diapers, you put on your rubber gloves, and wring them out and put them in the washer. Then you take the dirty diaper pail water and flush it, and put new fresh water with the solution in the diaper pail.<br />Of course then you wash, dry and fold. As your baby grows you fold a little differently so it fits properly. For boys the heavier part is in the front, for boys the fold is in the back. Then of course their was rubber pants. It's all I ever knew so I guess my circumstance saved the economy some. I will have to reasearch whether the disposable diapers hurt the environment like plastic bags do. That might be something note worthy to put on my going green blog.<br />Well I hope I have been some help.<br />Susan<br />http://amazingcouponanddiscountdeals.blogspot.com<br />http://joininandgogreen.blogspot.comSusan Paytonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08615849553083446726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-340457339900720695.post-69155019901594210282010-06-23T08:36:20.429-07:002010-06-23T08:36:20.429-07:00well this comment isnt exactly related, but i real...well this comment isnt exactly related, but i really really *REALLY* want to cloth diaper this time around. i can hardly find any good info on cloth diapering (and mostly the laundering) when you live in an apartment. i know you used a diaper service, but am hoping you might have some useful info that you've heard from others? am i going to be spending a fortune in quarters every week?Missyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03428942014083675695noreply@blogger.com
