So I've been so busy with reviews and moving, that I have not talked about my journey so far.
Cloth diapering has been very exciting for me Im loving every minute of it, even the POOP part :)
We have encountered some hiccups with ammonia smell, leaks, OS not fitting right recently Ashton had a I guess Yeast infection I didn't know babies could get that. So I had to stripe my diapers which took me 2 days that including overnight soaks and washing cycles and drying out outside!!! It felt like forever OMG I'm not sure if I ever want to do that again. :)
Besides that its been great, Ashton is getting so big he has grown into different snap rise rows, he is also teething finally has a bottom tooth out not all the way and also has another tooth on the side still hiding out..so hope this phase goes by quickly because I've been sleep deprived. My hubby enjoys seeing him in blue or black diapers since those are his favorite colors. My daughter is tired of hearing the words "Cloth Diapers" she saids OMG mommy "Cloth Diaper this Cloth Diaper that" may I remind you she's 5 years old. She's too funny.
Also still settling in the new house adjusting to things, organizing, cleaning.. I'm sure everyone has moved at least once in there life so y'all know what I'm going through.
Thank you all, if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask away!!!!
HAVE A FLUFFY DAY MAMAS & PAPPAS!!

Update
Hey everyone so cloth diapering has been great.
Though i have been having some ammonia smell problems which i've looked up and been reading and some say its normal some say its because of build up or because of the urine hitting the air. Honestly I'm not sure what it is. I mean almost all my diapers are new and i've only cloth diapered for about a month. So i don't think its build- up unless i've been doing something wrong which i don't think i have I've been very good about washing and keeping up. So I'm going to do a deep clean on these I'm going to let them rinse in Rockin Green Soap and will see what happends. A lot of people say to strip my diapers but that just seems so scary, i don't want to ruin or mess up my diapers. Though i think rinsing them in Rockin green is a type of stripping :) The smell is only when i take off the diaper and i put it in my dry pail liner. When i wash them they smell good so thats why I'm a bit confused, Also ashtons been having like burn rash my poor baby, so if i need to strip my diapers i will...
just like I've said before we can read all the "what if's" but not until it happens to us will we know how to go about fixing the problem its a trial and error if your feeling like me a bit confused don't worry will get through it. We are moms we always find a way to fix right??
I will keep you all updated on how it goes for me.
