Protective sheets for Cloth Diapers

My mother-in-law bought this in Magasin Bio. 

This can be used between the cloth diaper and the baby's skin. It's soft and prevents solids to soak and stain the cloth diaper. 

Price: 6-7 Euros. I forgot the exact price. 

Cloth Diapering again

I was 6 months pregnant when my sister shared to me that she's been using Alvababy Cloth Diaper with her 2nd child. She told me that it's cheap and the quality is good. I saw on the webcam that my niece was wearing a leopard print cloth diaper, and I thought it was cute (I'm a fan of leopard print). So, I asked my sister to buy some for me from the same online seller she bought her cloth diapers. She sent it to me thru DHL (when your family in the Philippines will send you package here in France, make sure the things inside are worth no more than 45 Euros. Otherwise, they will charge you.) 

I started using cloth diaper with my baby when she was a month old (I was also using lampin and pampers baby dry that time). I stopped using it September last year when we moved to our new place because I was busy cleaning and moving things. I didn't have time to wash it. And now that we are settled, I am back using it. 

(alvababy 3.0 minky)

(alvababy 3.0 solid color)

(just to give you an idea what the inside looks like)

(insert for 3.0)

(solid color and minky)

Alvababy 3.0 cloth diaper has hip snaps, waist snaps, 3 sizes adjustment snaps (small, medium, large), and single gusset. I love the minky because it's soft and cute. The leopard and zebra print are my favorite. As you can see in the picture, I have two leopard print. I also have a 3.0 dark blue and camouflage (not minky), they're in the laundry basket. 

(alvababy 4.0 color snap with double gussets) 

(this is why it's called color snap)

(with double gussets. for no more side leaks)

(insert for 4.0. there's a snap so you can attach it to the cloth diaper and keep the insert intact) 

(color snap with double gussets)

Alvababy 4.0 cloth diaper has hip snaps, waist snaps, 4 sizes adjustment snaps (extra small, small, medium, large), and double gussets. I prefer 4.0 than 3.0 because of the double gussets and its insert, but they don't have girly designs. So, I always use the 3.0 minky ones. 

I decided to use cloth diapers because we can save money on disposable diapers. But I still use disposable diaper during bedtime. I use Pampers Baby Dry, it's good up to 12 hours and our baby never had rashes with it. I use cloth diaper during the day until before bedtime. 

Late 70's French Cloth Diaper

I saw this Cloth Diaper last month during our vacation at my mother-in-law house. The texture is quite similar to lampin. My mother-in-law told me that she used this with my husband when he was a baby. It would have been nice to use it with our baby, so I can experience using it. But it's too late now. 

There's Yakult in France

We bought this Yakult in Monoprix. We never thought we would find it here because we don't see it in E.leclerc, Géant Casino, and in other supermarket, only in Carrefour in Nevers.

We bought it for 3.59 Euros.
