Diaper sprayer

This cloth diaper accesory is a MUST for handwashing mamas like me.The sprayer just cleans the poop in a breeze.I was giving a second thought in buying a sprayer until after a month of cloth diapering because all the brands of sprayers that I knew of ,was 40$ or so, so I did a small googling (as always) and found the sigma sparyer as the cheapest .I ordered  them from my favourite store(Sweet bottoms baby boutique) and got them in 3 days, from then its always been easy for me to wash my son's poopy diapers.And yes there is a con in using the sprayer, you have to be careful with the force of water, the water needs to be forceful to clean the diapers, but this force would make it splash everywhere out of the toilet, so hold the dirty diapers tight in one hand and use pressure accordingly, you can always use a disinfectant wipe or spray in the bathroom floor once done.With this said I like my sprayer a lot and my 3 and half year old really enjoys playing with it :(

Zumba




I am going back to gym say after 5 months, my last visit was in January.Now I have really turned into a couch potota with a excuse tha I am tired looking after two kids.Wanted to burn some calories and explore the new(to me) form of group excerise , yes its Zumba.Today is the first day and for first 5 minutes in the class, I could not stop myslef from laughing, mirrors infront of you, instructor with a mike and seeing all these I was laughing and felt like I will not be able to do it, but then today I managed for 30 minutes.I go to the Y, YMCA, its fantastic , there are lots of activities going on through out the year or adults and kids.Per month its 60$ for a family with free day care for your kids for 2 hours a day while you are in the Y.Thats nice right?Well my son did well in the day care and he had fun watching kids around.I am thinking of going to Zumba on 2 days and yoga on 2 days.

What was your experience going to the gym after delivey? After how many months you started work outs and how did your child take it up?

Wolby bug one size covers

When it comes to diaper covers, I prefer one size covers as I do not want to spend as and when the baby grows.I discovered flip covers but they had their own drawback of the prefold/flat folding or bunching up at the back, but I was very much happy and cotended with those.I had 3 solid color flip covers ,it was by then I came to know about wolby bug diaper covers from Julie's review ,considering the price,I thought I will give them a try, Wow, I wish I knew them earlier.I have two of wolby bug, cow print and black color.Not many diapers or diaper covers come in balck color .These covers are awesome and are my go to covers because I can use them on a prefold without snappi and be doubtless about their leak proof and holding capacity.My son is EBF and I need not tell you ladies about the poopy suprises , but these covers hold them really good on a pad folded green mountain red edge prefold.My only suggestion (come on we ladies won t be satisfied with anything , we keep on improving) would be the velcro option because my stash is full of snapped one size pockets and covers.To know where and the deal at which I bought these check out my deal or steal post here.Overall its one of the MUST HAVE diaper cover for a prefold /flat using mama

What is your pick? One sized or sized diaper coves?

My Wet bag



We all know that wet bag is an important accessory for cloth diapering,I realised this only after a month of cloth diapering.Earlier I used to store the wet diapers in a basket and soiled dipaers in another basket in the bathrroom.Sounds crazy right?? .Then I thought wheather to buy a pail or wet bag?.Well, I opted wet bag for reasons.
1.I also have another child who is 3 years old, I am very sure about her curiousity when I have a trash can with a cover and diapers inside it.I can assure that she will open everytime she sees that.
2.A wet bag does not even tell my guests that it has got used dipaers in it.
3.Reusage.What will I do with the pail container once I am  done with cloth dipaering?,use it has a trash can ? I alreday have 1 tall trash can and 2 small ones.If its a wet bag, after
clothdiapering I have two options, one I can sell them , donate them or whatever, second I can use it for swim dress.
So I opted for a zippered wet bag and was about to purchase planet wise or Kissalauvs, but then I googled for "cheap wet bags" and I found about dipaer palz and I bought one small travel wet bag and one large bag to try , the ladies in diaper palz usually do a monthly deal like 50% off any one or two specific colors, that month when I ordered(June 2012) it was purple and blue.I bought purple ones and both cost me around 16$ including tax and shipping.I got them in a week and was surprised , they looked as good quality ones, I have never used any other brands before but this looked good, so the next week I ordered 1 travel and 1 large in blue color , this time I found a coupon code that was given to a blogger to share with her readers.I also came to know about the cheap alva baby ones, so I bought two travel sizes in those , they were like 6$ each.So I have 2 large and 4 travel bags.I am planning on using one of the travel bags to put on swim clothes.
