I wish I had figured out the above with our first child. Zero rashes, no blowouts, easy to care for, better for the environment. I went with sized fuzzi bunz because I like the trim fit better than the one size and I had heard bad things about bum genius velcro wearing out. A lot of people who cloth diaper treat it like a hobby with lots of styles and the "collect them all" mentality. Not me-- I want one thing that works and this is it. I use one disposable at night because I don't want to bother coming up with a perfect night time solution and I'll use 7th gen when we travel too. I bought about half used and bought some new too. When the baby grows out of these I'll resell them for half price. Almost free diapers! They really retain their value.
We live in an apartment building and don't have access to fancy rinse cycles so I wash once with a bit of Charlie's Soap (hot) and then wash once with some white vinegar (hot) to make sure the soap rinses out. The vinegar helps any odors go away which can be a problem with synthetic diapers (but not mine). I've never needed to strip. The key is wash every other day or two and use very little soap so you don't get detergent buildup.Get more detail about FuzziBunz Perfect Size Cloth Diaper, Apple Green, Size Medium 15-30 lbs.
