Changing Diapers: Review and Giveaway

I've never been a big fan of change.  I get used to it.  I adapt.  I don't like it.  But I've learned to accept that change is inevitable: changing jobs, changing schools, changing houses, changing diapers...

Wait, changing diapers?

Yep.  Diapers.  I've done a LOT of diaper changing over the last 6 1/2 years.  A lot.  In fact, there's never been a time in 6 1/2 years that NO ONE in my house wore diapers at least part time!  I've changed all types of diapers: wet diaper, dry diapers, poopy diapers, disposable diapers, cloth diapers...

One of the biggest diaper changes I made occurred about a year ago, when I changed from disposable to cloth!  What a scary change that was!  I'd contemplated cloth before Little Lou was born, but was quite frankly afraid of the poop.  I didn't even think about it when Bugsy was born.  I didn't have time, when he was a baby, to think about washing diapers, stripping diapers, folding and sorting diapers.  I didn't even think about it, honestly, when Stinky was born!  It wasn't until about a year ago, when Stinky was about 8 months old and our budget needed to find a little wiggle room, that I decided to give cloth a go.

I didn't have any advice.  I didn't have a cloth diaper "mentor."  I didn't have a clue!

I wish Kelly Wels had written her book, Changing Diapers, back then!  

Back a year ago.  Back 4 years ago.  6 years ago, even!

Kelly's taken a ton of her cloth diaper knowledge and fused it all together seamlessly in her beautiful new book, Changing Diapers!  If you are considering using cloth diapers, this book is a must-have.  If you know someone who is considering cloth, or who is pregnant, or who knows someone who is pregnant, this book is for you.  If you're a cloth diaper newbie with lots of questions, it's for you.  Even if you're a cloth diaper veteran, I bet you could glean some very useful knowledge from Changing Diapers!  Kelly shares a little bit about everything cloth, and a lot about a few things, in this very comprehensive cloth diapering "how-to!"  The beautiful pictures and quick wit make it a great fast and easy read.  You'll love it!
