I believe they have now seen at LEAST seven children from newborn to potty-trained, and are STILL going strong! They have snap closures, too, so...yeah. No "blech" to deal with.<br /><br />They ARE expensive as !!OUCH!! out the gate, sure, but over time they more than paid for themselves.Mother of Chaoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12176092618150502244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19673259.post-74395123094058343972012-07-30T22:48:38.064-05:002012-07-30T22:48:38.064-05:00Ha my baby is 40 and I know I used cloth diapers.....Ha my baby is 40 and I know I used cloth diapers.. Its funny thinking back because these paints (Artex) that you used on cloth was very popular at the time. My friends ordered me a bunch of diapers from them that came stamped and then threw an artex party where we all painted the cute little pictures that were stamped on the back of the diapers. I also used those big pins and rubber pants. I haven't seen rubber pants or those pins for many years now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19673259.post-2158020133179757282012-07-30T20:02:48.023-05:002012-07-30T20:02:48.023-05:00Where did you read that?
