Sunday (day 7)
I hung the diapers on the line last night after washing. I was counting on there being a nice wind to dry them out. Instead, we ended up with an extra rinse cycle. They were DRENCHED that morning. I used the very last cover for while we were at church and left the rest of them hanging in the house over the register. I was hoping that they would dry by the time we got home. I had plenty of diapers left but no dry covers. Getting home I found that the binding on the covers was all that was wet still. I chose the driest one and continued on.
This last week has been an interesting experience to say the least. I am glad that I joined in! I think that if I had to do this full time I would probably get one of those washer plunger things.
I will be going back to using my washer and drier. Even though it didn't really take that long to wash by hand I have plenty of other things that take up my time with having all three of my kiddos under 3 yrs old and another on the way. I am confident that if I ever did not have access to a washer and drier that I would continue to cloth diaper though.
I really liked the flat diapers. So much so that I am considering making up a handful of small flats for this new baby on the way. The snappis are a WONDERFUL tool. I found them a while back and used them with prefolds. My husband MUCH prefers the snappis to the standard diaper pins. The flats that Diaper Junction provided me with were really nice. They washed up easy and were substantial. The absorbed well and dried quickly. (when they wern't being rained on)
