Printable Handouts
Are you a birth class leader, midwife, doula? Do you work with expectant parents or have a friend expecting that you would like to tell about cloth diapers? Here are two printable handouts to use. These are in PDF format.
Diaper Reviews
These are some great places to start when choosing what you want to order.
This is a huge site with lots of reviews of diapers, diaper accesories, and online stores.
Mothering Magazine's online message board, Mothering Dot Commune (MDC) is an extensive resource for Natural Fmaily Living and Attachment Parenting, and has a large diapering forum. The CDing moms on this board are really helpful; use the "search forum" tool to find out lots of answers, and use this quick link to go directly to diapering reviews.
Buying second-hand diapers
Buying second hand can be a great deal! Try these places to find a good deal. Also, always check on your favorite WAHM (work-at-home-mom) diapermakers websites for seconds and used diapers. The more popular diapers like Fuzzi Bunz and Kissaluvs also have outlets to shop from.
You can buy, sell, and trade diapers on this message board. Again, make sure to research the diaper and seller.
After you have been a member for 60 days and have made 50 posts, you can gain access to MDC's Trading Post for buying, selling, and trading. Yet again, make sure to research the diaper and seller.
You can buy, sell, and trade diapers on the Pin as well as see reviews.
This site is just starting up.
A cautionary note
eBay does not allow the selling of second-hand diapers. Whle some listings still make it through, this is not a reliable place to buy second-hand diapers, and I recommend that those new to cloth diapering not buy on eBay (even new) because it seems to have many more scams/poorly made diapers, etc. For all sites listed, you need to be careful and look at feedback for the seller.
Cloth Diapering Advocacy
Lots of great facts about cloth diapers, information, and a directory to find your local Real Diaper Circle.
