Cloth Diapering and Family Gatherings
December 23, 2016 9:00 am | by

Our midwives not only deliver babies, but get to talk with new mothers about a lot of the challenges facing them in their transition into parenthood. It’s that time of year again: traveling and meeting up with family for the holidays. Traveling with kids is challenging enough, but if you cloth diaper – especially if you’re fairly new to it – it can be downright intimidating. You may pray that your baby doesn’t need a diaper change when you’re out and about. It’s normal to be nervous about the mechanics of cloth diapering outside of the house, but like anything else,

New! bumGenius Elemental Review
November 18, 2016 12:00 pm | by

I’m going to make a little confession… When I first discovered bumGenius cloth diapers, I tried out every one of their diaper styles. This is how I fell in love with bumgenius Freetimes… However, I just could not find the love for the bumGenuis Elemental.

But then….

Why I Love Cloth Diapers
November 1, 2016 8:00 am | by

I love cloth diapers. I’m sort of a cloth diaper addict, if you will. I enjoy purchasing them. I enjoy having the cutest new prints and the classic colors that match my baby’s outfits.

My love for cloth diapers began shortly after discovering bumGenius cloth diapers. The colors were adorable and the prints were just beginning. I noticed them when Jules and Carroll had just come out and at the time –
