My best tip is to let go of using the diaper pail with its required plastic bags….too much extra waste…

I plan on using cloth diapers along with reusable wash clothes rather than baby wipes. Wash cloths can be washed and used countless times- no need to just throw them away and create more waste. Also, I purchased a used baby changing table at a garage sale rather than going out and buying a new one. This used changing table was in great condition and only needed a touch of painting. And the dollar savings were excellent.

Using organic washcloths instead of wipes not only saves space in the landfill but it is also better for your babies bottom (no harsh chemicals to cause rashes and no trapping bacteria against the skin)! Eco-friendly and healthier too!

I use organic diapers, both Gro Baby and Bum Genius orangic AOI’s. I also use organic cloth wipes with a water and essential oil solution. I keep a wet bag right by the changing area so there’s no mess. Then I top it off by using Rockin’ Green laundry detergent in my HE energy star rated washer. I would love to line dry, but with construction going on next to us, that won’t work

Wash your baby’s cloth diapers and reusable/washable flannel wipes with biodegradable laundry detergent and line dry. Bring them to a consignment shop when you are done with them, as long as they are in good condition, of course.

Remember that what goes in… must come out. What baby eats and drinks eventually hits the waste stream, whether you’re discharging it as water waste by washing cloth diapers, or sending it off to the landfill wrapped in a disposable. Feeding your baby whole, all-natural foods, from breastmilk to birthday cake, is an important part of greening the diaper routine (not to mention keeping your baby healthy).

No diaper cream. Most contain petroleum by-products, parabens, etc. etc. Even if it’s organic, there’s all that packaging. I never use cream. If my daughter gets the hint of a rash I pop open a vitamin E capsule and rub the goo on. It works wonders.

That’s what I am here to find out! I have cloth diapers and wipes all prepared, now I am trying to find non-petrol based creams, etc. My hubby and I love jojoba oil, so I am thinking to just use that.

I use cloth diapers and wipes (baby washcloths). I put the soiled items into a fabric laundry bag (no plastic thank you!). I use only eco-friendly laundry soap and hang dry all year long. I do not use diaper cream but rather Vitamin E caplets and I recycle the container when it is empty.

We started using cloth diapers and cloth wipes plus I made my own cloth wipe solution. I also reused my daughter’s furniture for my son, including the changing table.

Eco-friendly diapering, so much you can do! I’ve done the research and plan to use cloth wipes. Also, I’ve registered for different kinds of cloth diapers and plan on seeing what this new little person prefers

Diapering can be pretty eco-friendly, using cloth diapers and cloth wipes, which we use. Cloth diapering is really not difficult and when you think of all of the money and landfill waste that you save, it’s worth it.

Also using your own wipe solution with a bit of olive oil prevents diaper rash, at least in our case.

First and foremost…..get rid of that plastic bag!! Second, trying to find ways to supplement what we all already use. Finding eco ways to diaper!

We use cloth diapers and cloth wipes. we also line dry the diapers whenever possible. Wouldn’t it be cool if we could use the sun to heat the water for washing the diapers as well?

One size cloth diapers. Use them for a child’s whole diapering life, and then for the next child, or pass them on. I love the Fuzzi bunz One Size best.

Before I found out about cloth wipes, we bought disposable wipes. We have been reusing them by washing. They are very durable and last a lifetime. We haven’t bought new ones. Using EC which takes time and patience. Free and clear laundry detergent. Change diapers only when necessary. We use about 3-5 diaper per day since we have EC. Use compostable diapers.

Cloth diapers and wipes, and we change on the bed or floor–no need for a changing table!

Other than the obvious, I hang dry all of my cloth diapers!

g-diapers! they really are the perfect combination with a biodegradable or flushable insert, you save A LOT of washing water. we also use organic cotton, biodegradable wipes and we compost everything right in our own back yard!

My tip is to do research. There are a lot of alternative options to the typical disposable diaper that are more eco-friendly choices. Then you can choose a system that is best for you because everyone’s needs are different.

My tip is to use cloth diapers and wipes. Not only has that saved us a TON of money it has also been better for our children’s bottoms.

Using cloth diapers and eco friendly cleaning products for cleaning the diapers .. Its important to keep chemicals away from the baby ,even using harsh cleaning products ,the chemicals in cleaning products are in the clothes that are against the baby’s skin .
Line dry ,let the sun and fresh air get to the clothes.

I use cloth diapers & wipes & I wash in HOME MADE soap….thats eco friendly & skin friendly for my lil man….!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My best tip is to not use a diaper pail. They are unnecessary chunks of plastic that are unlikely to be recycled..
