Visit our sponsor: 11) Be present, not pushy in online forums. Yes, I’ve decided to add an eleventh to the list! I love that retailers are often part of large Facebook cloth diapering groups, and I love those that are present, but not pushy. You shouldn’t be constantly posting about your business (which is usually […]
This Is The Way I Cloth Diaper at Night
I have enough supplies for four overnight diapers. I usually wash every 2.5 days, but having 4 sets means I have enough for weekend trips or for nights when I have to change him partway through. Instead of using fitteds or a jam-packed pocket diaper overnight, I’ve found a combo of inserts that I sandwich […]
Calling ShopDiaper.com Out on False Advertising: Not PTPA Certified!
I have always been skeptical of ShopDiaper.com. The whole page just seems sketchy, and I’ve talked to other Mama bloggers who have dealt with them and heard about problems with spamming and overall poor communication. To boot, their diapers are pretty sh*tty. Having never had a transaction with ShopDiaper.com before, I didn’t feel like I […]
Eco-Disposable Diapers: The Best of the Worst
My name twin, Lindsay Coulter over at the David Suzuki Foundation’s Queen of Green blog recently examined the eco-friendly claims of some “eco”-disposable diapers on the market. She put together a chart that compares manufacturer’s “green” claims: Ms. Coulter is actually my name-twin in more than just first name: I am also the Queen of […]
Cloth Diapering a Newborn: Yes, you can!
{This is an old post, so the covers mentioned are no longer made. I’ve also since had another baby. Find all my more recent newborn diapering posts here.} Almost everyone I talk to who is interested in cloth diapering tells me they plan to start when baby’s a few months old. There’s something intimidating about […]
AMP One-size Duo Review
I received this item free for review. All opinions remain my own. I have always admired AMP diapers from afar: the ruffles at the leg and waist always seemed so adorable, but so different than what I had grown accustomed to in the brands that make up the majority of my stash. I’ve been using […]
Funky Fluff Fusion 2.0 Bamboo Review
If you’ve recently been online cloth diaper shopping, you might have encountered a relative new-comer among the better known brands like BumGenius, Fuzzibunz and Canada’s sweethearts, AppleCheeks and AMP: Funky Fluff! Funky Fluff is a Canadian-owned diaper company with manufacturing operations overseas that is quickly making a name for itself among new and seasoned […]
How to Read a Cloth Diaper Review
Do you read reviews of products before buying? I most definitely do. Let’s say I’m in the market for a new bra… I need it to be wireless, lightly padded and suitable for the president of the Itty Bitty Titty Committee. If the brand I have my eye on gets a 1-star rating from more […]
Cloth Diaper B/S/T Netiquette: For Buyers
Check out my previous posts about selling cloth diapers on Facebook and on seller netiquette! Although many would argue that the customer is always right, there are definitely some common courtesies that I believe buyers on cloth diaper swap pages should try to adhere to. I’m also including some steps to take to avoid being […]
Cloth Diaper B/S/T Netiquette: For Sellers

Here are my suggestions for smooth buying, selling and trading transactions via Facebook. I’m starting today with tips for sellers. I started my second-hand fluff business literally overnight, so I definitely made mistakes, […]
Stuff Your Fluff with Hemp: Öko Creations Hemp Inserts Review
My favourite kind of review to read is an unsolicited review. In other words, a review where the blogger is receiving nothing in return for her post. Don’t get me wrong: I love to receive items for review, and I always do my best to write an unbiased and thorough critique, all the while […]
Bummis’ New Simply Lite: It’s simply the best.
Update, Sept. 2015 : Bummis has recently merged with Mini Kiwi. I love Bummis. Based here in Québec with their boutique on St-Laurent in Montréal and many of their products manufactured in nearby St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, I can’t say enough positive things about this company and its dedicated owners. You can find out a bit more […]
Maman Loup’s Interview on CBC Montreal’s Day Break
[soundcloud url=”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/118149231″ width=”100%” height=”166″ iframe=”true” /] So as described in my two previous posts, I have been trying to contact my municipal candidates about getting a cloth diaper subsidy for my borough, Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve. Yesterday, I was interviewed by Day Break’s Mike Finnerty about my lack of success getting answers from my three main candidates. It […]
TotsBots EasyFits: EasyFix for Shot Elastics! (No sewing machine required)
TotsBots Mamas looooooooooove their TotsBots, especially their EasyFit V2s, with bamboo inners and thick PUL. Why TotsBots switched to a thinner PUL and minky inners is beyond me, especially given the ongoing demand for their V2s on the second-hand diaper market. Because V2s are no longer made, you can only acquire them used, which may […]
My Passion for Prefolds
Prefolds and covers were the very first type of diaper I put on the wee Cub: more specifically, Bummis prefolds and covers! Bummis is as local as it gets when it comes to cloth diapering for me: they are based right here in Montréal. You can find out all about the Mama behind Bummis […]
