I know a lot of mothers-to-be that contemplate whether to choose cloth or disposable diapers. For me, it was never a question; I simply wasn’t prepared to do the work it took to use cloth diapers. Sure, I’ve spent countless dollars on disposable diapers over the years, but I was sure that the simplicity of them was well worth it. Nevertheless, when GroVia offered me the chance to try out one of its popular all-in-one diapers, I figured, “What the heck!” So with my third baby, I finally decided to give the cloth diaper a try.
When I received the GroVia All-in-One Cloth Diaper, the first thought that occurred to me was comfort. I realized how much more comfortable the cloth diaper must be for a baby than the rough disposable ones. The inside liner of the GroVia cloth diaper is made with 100% organic cotton which is super soft and super absorbent. In fact, it actually increases in absorbency with each washing! The outside of the diaper has soft stretchy bands for a comfortable fit around the legs and several snaps at the waist allowing for a perfect fit for babies from 10 to 35 pounds. If you are going to invest in using cloth diapers, you might as well choose a one-size-fits-all style like the GroVia diaper.
I was excited to start using this comfortable and environmentally responsible new diaper with my daughter and after easily snapping it on her for the first time, I was pleased with myself for giving it a chance. She looked so cute in her puffy little underwear and I was able to fit it to her perfectly with the different snap options. I was nervous to put her down for a nap with the cloth diaper on, but two hours later when I went to get her up, her sheets were still dry even though the inside of the diaper was pretty wet. Then I just snapped it off and popped it in the laundry. The diaper doesn’t require any special washing so it doesn’t put any kinks in my laundry routine.

I started to realize right away that cloth diapers aren’t really the extra work load I imagined them to be. Of course I only have the one so far, but I am really starting to wish I had more! As my little one gets older I know I will be visiting www.gro-via.com to increase her cloth diaper collection. GroVia cloth diapers are stylish, environmentally responsible, cost saving and comfortable. Too bad it took me 3 babies to finally come around, but better late than never!

I currently cloth diaper my first and only child from birth! :) Love it! I try to convert all my non cloth diapering friends- sigh, they dont know what they are missing!
I’ve used cloth diapers.
All of my children used cloth diapers.
I have not but really want to try
Interesting how you thought of comfort for the baby. I used cloth diapers on all 5 of my kids and I always thought they had to be more comfortable for them. I used disposables too for travelling and when they went to the babysitters and I have to say their little bums were healthier with less or no rash when they were in cloth.
We use cloth on our 5 month old
I use Grivia with my baby!
I just started cloth diapering my 15 m/o about 2 months ago. It’s hard to build a stash because I want to purchase quality diapers which run around $17 each. I’m hoping to have enough for my 15 m/o and my 3rd boy due to arrive in a few months to be in cloth full-time! I feel great every time I change a cloth diaper and know I’m keeping chemicals off of my baby and diapers out of the landfill!
