Is all PUL (Polyurethane Laminate) created equal?

Is all PUL (Polyurethane Laminate) created equal?

PUL, or Polyurethane Laminate, is the waterproof layer of material often used in cloth diapers.  Pockets, All-in-Ones, All-in-Twos and Diaper Covers most often use this on the outer layer of the diaper as a more breathable alternative to the old Rubber and Plastic pants of the previous generation of cloth diapers. So what exactly is [...]

bumGenius! 4.0 One Size Pocket Review

bumGenius! 4.0 One Size Pocket Review

If you have been reading my blog for a while you probably know that I am a “fan” of bumGenius! products.  I have been using their 3.0′s since my son fit into them (around 12-14 pounds, leak free) and their Elementals (Organic AIO’s) since I bought a few when he was a couple of months [...]

Fluffy Mama of the Week- Glorimar from Zabi Baby and Giveaway

Fluffy Mama of the Week- Glorimar from Zabi Baby and Giveaway

I am resurrecting Fluffy Mama of the Week and the first post in almost a year is a special one!  I contacted Glorimar Rosa who I had heard collected vintage diapers.  I was dying to learn more about her collection.  On top of collecting vintage cloth diapers she has also been cloth diapering for 15 [...]

Homebirth: Ready or not, here I come!

Homebirth: Ready or not, here I come!

To say I am not terrified of giving birth naturally would be lying. Labor is painful (unless you are an amazing hypobirther or you have that rare disease where you don’t feel pain) and I am afraid I will suck at it.  But then again, I am ready to go for it!  And I am [...]

Gro Via All in Two (Hybrid) Review

Kelly’s Closet provided a Gro Via Hybrid for me to make a comparison video for their blog.  But I still wanted write my review and compare the function of the Gro Via to the Gro Baby.  The Gro Baby inspired me to begin doing video reviews.  Since that first video I have done 61 others! [...]

Cloth Diaper Must Haves- My Top Picks

Cloth Diaper Must Haves- My Top Picks

I have lived through 20 months of cloth diapering my son.  To say I have learned a thing or two is an understatement.  Not only have I tried and reviewed over 50 cloth diapers, I have tried all sorts of accesories.  Plus I have real world experience.  I know how to change a cloth diaper [...]

Update on our Co-sleeping Conundrum

Update on our Co-sleeping Conundrum

A few weeks ago I wrote about the trouble I was having getting my son to sleep the entire night in his toddler bed-“How to end Co-sleeping. Advice Needed!!!.” I WAS PLEADING FOR ADVICE!  Thankfully, tons of people (well, tons for me!) commented on my dilemma with lots of useful advice. Many of you suggested [...]

Envibum AIO and Mom4Mom Cover/ T Shaped Liner Reviews

Envibum AIO and Mom4Mom Cover/ T Shaped Liner Reviews

Today I have 2 reviews!  The first is for the Envibum One Size which is an All-in-One.  The diaper reminds me of the muppets because it has minky on the outside.  I reviewed the Envibum in blue, and couldn’t help but think of the Cookie Monster.  I can’t even say enough good things about this [...]

Mother-Ease Sandy’s Fitted and Airflow Cover Review

Mother-Ease Sandy’s Fitted and Airflow Cover Review

This diaper set was another I received almost a year ago for review, but my son did not fit them.  It was only recently that I tried them again and they fit him.  I know I have had many requests to review the Sandy’s Fitted and Air Flow cover from Mother-Ease Cloth Diapers and I [...]

Wouldn’t you love to see a book full of beautiful cloth diaper photos?

Wouldn’t you love to see a book full of beautiful cloth diaper photos?

I would!  I received a tweet from someone I follow on Twitter (SugarSnapPhoto), a fellow cloth diapering mother, who is also a photographer.  She has come up with the idea to make a coffee table book full of beautiful photos of babies in cloth diapers! Since I loved the concept I wanted to share it [...]

AMP Stay Dry All in One Review

I have had the AMP Stay Dry All in One in my possession since November!  I was sent 2 to review but they were a size large.  At the time they were much too large for my son, so I put them in a drawer hoping he would grow into them soon.  Recently, I tried [...]

Listening to Music and Labor?

Listening to Music and Labor?

While pregnant with my first son I envisioned listening to my favorite music while laboring, and letting those familiar songs take me to a far away place.  This place would have no pain of course, and I would need no drugs, only songs, to get me through.  Naive?  Probably.  Also, my husband never got around [...]

Winners!

I apologize for the lateness which I am posting winners and also for pulling them.  After my web redesign there are still some things that need fixing, including my comment numbering.  Pulling winners is a chore these days.  On top of that, my son broke my computer for a while, keeping it from screencapping.  I [...]

31 Weeks, not long now.

My next baby will be here in a few short weeks and I am feeling the anxiety.  I don’t have a baby bath tub, or enough swaddling blankets.  I have to pull out all of those fun things like burp cloths and my handy Nose Frida (no bulb syringe here, this thing works great!).  I [...]
