What kind of diapers do you use.  Please post brand and why you use it.  This goes for cloth diapering moms too!

We use Huggies Naturals or Target's generic store brand.  Used to buy we bought Huggies supreme because it was the only diaper I found that didn't make my kids rash.  Then I started using the naturals because I thought maybe it would be better for DD's eczema.  Well now recently we are trying Target's Generic brand because DD is 19mo and playing with potty training.  She goes through ALOT of diapers each day because she is always running to the bathrm and she'll only be a tiny bit wet and then she'll go the rest on the toilet.  I'm considering buying some cloth diaper trainers or some cloth diaper fitted dips.  As long as I can find either option in 100% cotton, DD is allergic to wool & polyester.

We use King Sooper's Comfort Baby. They are cheap and they don't make my dd get a rash.

 I used to use Wal-Mart's Drypers? The one's with the duckies on the band. They caused a rash for Reece, so I tried White Cloud (hated em), , Huggies and Pampers (didn't care for either one), Luvs (loved them), and then I tried Target's diapers. They worked SO WELL! They had the best quality of every diaper I tried and I won't buy any other wipes but thiers.

I use Luvs. I have never had a problem with them and they are much cheaper than Pampers, and made by the same company. I will buy Pampers when they are on sale and I have coupons sometimes as a 'treat'.  I HATE Huggies.

I would love to cloth diaper but I am on a tight budget and would have to wait until income tax time to buy a stash.. but by then she'll be almost 2 and probably on her way to potty training.

I use cloth. I like Mothersease and I have a ton others from work at home moms.
I like pocket diapers because they are convenient than prefolds and fitteds and cover. No folding, no pins or snappis. You can add as many inserts as you need to pockets, they come out and wash better than all in one diapers and they dry faster!
I also prefer one size diapers because I just wanted to pay once and not have to worrk about buying more when she went up a size!
I like snaps better than velcro because she is a curious girl and the velcro was too easy to take off, lol!
I chose cloth because it's better for her skin, there are no dangerous chemicals like disposables have and they are more environmentally friendly!

I use Costco, because I can afford them.  The cloth diaper service here is really expensive.

Just switched over to cloth and LOVE it. I have a few WAHM and am getting some more WAHM (Linah Sora) soon. I also have some prefolds and random covers. I just fold them and don't pin or snappi.

Oh, and Karma719 - I don't use a diaper service. I was it all myself.

u know to make cloth diapers fit into the budget try buying a couple/few and just adding then to the diaper rotation throughout the day.  And try to set aside a little money ea wk to save up(maybe $10 or something).  I wanted to do cloth but I was having a lot of trouble finding a cover that had zero polyester or wool(allergies).
