Change 3 Things Update
March 8, 2011 1:14 am | by

For those who may not have heard already, our Change 3 Things project encountered a little hiccup. We had to begin again with a fresh Facebook page, which you can find here: Facebook.com/changethreethings

Unfortunately, we lost all of our 6,000+ commitments from those of you who had “Liked” the page. If you are willing to make the commitment to change at least 3 cloth diapers a day, help us count by clicking “Like” on the Facebook page.
Our goals are:
  • 100,000 parents committed to change 3 cloth diapers per day.*
  • 30-50 million pounds of prevented landfill waste*
  • 100 million disposable diapers not purchased.*
  • $24 million of combined savings for participating families**
It’s truly amazing to see how a small commitment by each of us quickly adds up to significant change with lasting impact.
We know many of you are eager to help spread the word about the benefits of cloth diapering to your friends and family. Today, we’ll be giving away some Change 3 Things packs to help you spread the word. Three winners will be randomly drawn from all eligible entries left as comments here on the blog.
Prize pack #1 includes:
Prize pack #2 includes:
Prize pack #3 includes:
To enter, please share who you would share your prize with and how you would share. Would you give them a demonstration? What about going to their house for a cup of coffee and a cloth diaper tutorial? What would you do to give your friend a great start on their cloth diapering journey?
Eligible entries must be posted today, Tuesday, March 8, 2011. U.S. Residents only. Void where prohibited by law. No purchase necessary to win. All winners will be drawn Wednesday, March 9, 2011 and notified via e-mail.

* Numbers are approximate and based on information published in the Environmental Agency’s Science Report SC010018/SR2.
** Based on approximately $0.25 per disposable diaper NOT purchased by participants because they chose to change a cloth diaper instead.

    i would set up a cloth diapering demonstration at my breastfeeding group.i’ve done it once before and it was a big hit with all the moms and expecting mothers.

    i would share with my friend who is considering cloth diapering her two babies. it would be great to give her a diaper to start her stash and to show her how to use them.

    I would share them with my sister in law who has thought about cloth but has not tried them. I would show them to her and help her try them out.

    I’d share the diapers with our local WIC. I’d show up and demonstrate how easy it is to use the diapers, clean the diapers and how cost effective it is to use cloth diapers.

    I would give the diapers to my sister and brother in law. My niece is nine months old and they struggle to pay their bills. They live in a small town and would like to try cloth but they are young, not very resourceful and have no idea where to begin to learn about cloth diapering. They are frustrated with disposables because they leak often for them. I would love to be able to educate them and provide them with a ready-to-go set if cloth diapers that they will be able to use with future children as well!

    One of my best friends is pregnant after being told they couldn’t have kids…an awesome miracle! She wants to use cloth and I look forward to sharing diaper advice, encouragement, and stories. She lives far away, otherwise I’d love to sit and chat with her about it in person!

    I have a couple of great friends who are interested in cloth, but I think they’re scared of making the investment. I’d love to share something with them to encourage them.
    On a bigger scale, I’d love to rock out cards at an Earth Day event in the spring, toting my lovely baby in her BGs. I’d even do demonstrations! We are just normal, simple people. And WE LOVE CLOTH!

    My next door neighbor is pregnant with twins and is thinking about cloth diapering, but is a little hesitant. If I won and I could start her stash – I know she would do it!

    I would share with my cousin… I’m just now venturing into the cloth diapering world and would like to introduce my family to CDs as well… Maybe have her come over and frustrate how they’re used.

    Would LOVE to share the package with a friend who has expressed interest in cloth diapering. I don’t have enough in my stash to loan her some so this would be the perfect opportunity to get her started!

  • Amanda said...

    I would share it with my sister. She lives 8 hrs away so I would be sharing next time we went to visit. Her and her dh are TTC so now is the perfect time to introduce her to them! DD is still in diapers at night so she would get to see first hand how they work on a small scale instead of full time all at once!

    I would share them with my sister in law, pregnant with her first and in a really rough job economy for the both of them. Cloth would save them lots of money, more for my new baby nephew Myles ๐Ÿ™‚

    Some of the ladies I’ve met in our medical group’s mom support group seem to be interested in trying cloth diapers whenever I talk about it, so this can help one of them get started! I’ve already showed some of them how easy it is to put on a prefold with a snappi. It would be great if I can convert someone else to cloth diapering!

  • Brandy said...

    I would love the package #3 to share with a friend. I would show my friend how to use the cloth by demonstrating on my 4 month old baby girl. My friend is 6 months preggo and so interested in using cloth diapering. This would be my first time getting to show off my new love of cloth with someone that wants to buy cloth…Thank you!

    I would share my prize with my cousin, Lauren. We are both military wives living on opposite sides of the country. Her new baby boy is 1 month old, and my cloth diaper daughter just turned 2. Lauren has been interested in cloth diapering. I sent her all of my favorite web resources and had a long conversation on how I got started and I went over the different systems with her. She and her husband are set to be moved and stationed in Alaska in six weeks. They will be there for at least 2 years and the closest Target will be 6 hours away! She will be in the middle of nowhere so besides the benefits for the baby, our environment, and finances… it just makes sense for her to use cloth diapers because of her location. My husband has even talked her husband into being on board with cloth. A prize like this would be the extra motivation they need to get going with the fluffy baby booty!

    I have been on a crusade to convert people! I have a friend with a nine month old who I might be able to convince if she saw how easy it was and how much she should save. I’d invite her over for a play date with our toddlers and show her how to do it.

    I have a pregnant friend who I go to church with who has asked me the “so how HARD is cloth diapering….REALLY?” question because she is considering making the switch to cloth when her new baby arrives. She already has an older child in diapers so she is concerned with how she will afford diapering two babies. I LOVED getting to show her my stash and how EASY cloth diapering is. Being able to bless her with cloth diapers that are easy, affordable and CUTE would be wonderful. And OF COURSE I’d give her demos on how to wash/use them! Love spreading the fluffy love!

    I am so blessed to be surrounded by a group of CDing moms that introduced them to me! Since a great majority of them have given birth recently or are about to, I will share with the one who has given birth most recently. I am always encouraged by them when it comes to cloth diapering, so getting togther for a cloth diapering afternoon playdate would be fun! ๐Ÿ™‚

    I would give them to my friend Jessica who is about to have a baby the end of April. I have talked to her sevral times about switching to cloth. I think if I had a few diapers to give her she would see what I was talking about. It took me getting a couple cloth diapers to get my husband to change his mind about it. He is a lot more open to the idea of us doing it full time now. I of course would show her the proper way to clean them and put them on her baby. I would also be there to answer any questions she might have.

    I would share them with my friend Alicia. She is looking for ways to save money and is very interested in cloth diapering. We are already planning a playdate at my house so I can give her a CD tutorial and I’m going to let her borrow some of my cloth diapers so she can see what she likes before investing in a full stash. I love sharing the awesomeness of cloth diapering!

    I have a few students who are now starting their own families this summer. One has expressed an interest so far and I would LOVE to give her a starter kit and detergent if I won. She’s had some experience already changing my kiddos diapers but sitting down and talking with her about it more including her fears and nervousness while demonstrating is the perfect way!

    I’ve been trying to convert my co worker. I have her convinced but cost is the main hinderance for her. I convinced her by bringing 12 BG 3.0 OS diapers to work for her to try for a long weekend. I gave her care instructions from the web and plenty of links to the benefits of cloth as well. She was so impressed with them, no leaks or blowouts with either her newborn or two year old (even overnight), that she asked to keep them longer. I ended up giving her the dozen to get her started. She’s still using them at home but with two in diapers and a limited budget she needs more. I’m currently searching sales and swap boards for her but it would be really nice to get her something new to show off. Thank you as always for a great product!

    I would share with my nephews wife who is expecting in July and has shown interest. I would show her the few different types of cloth diapers that I use with my two grandbabies whom I watch daily and have used cloth diapers since I started watching them @6-8 wks. old. They are 12 months and 15 months, so I definitely change more than 3 diapers a day!She could practice on them any time she wants!cjwehrman@heartofiowa.net

    I would share with my friend K, we have been best friends since we were 12 years old. She is pregnant with her first child and is a single mama. She became interested in cloth diapering after I told her about how much I loved my bum genius diapers. She was able to buy 6 for herself and registered for more, however her shower guests opted for other gifts. Her due date was last Sunday and has only a one day supply of diapers. I would love to help her because I know cloth diapering is as important to her as it is to me.

    I would share them with a friend who has been thinking about cloth diapering her new baby, but is not sold on it yet. I would like to let her barrow some of mine to see how easy it is, but I don’t have enough for my little one right now to let someone barrow them.

    My sister and future sister-in-law are both pregnant with their first baby. I would probably give all of the diapers to them and just keep the t-shirt since I am pretty well stocked on diapers. Both sister and S-I-L have expressed interest in CDing, but don’t know much about it. I have already shown them some basics when I change my son’s diaper at family gatherings. I plan on doing another demonstration at my sister’s baby shower since one of her gifts is some econobums I bought during the sale. It will be great to show her and her guests how everything works and that it isn’t much harder (if any) than disposables.

    I would share them with my best friend who is pregnant right now. She has shown some interest in cloth diapering and now that she is closer to the end of her pregnancy (and things are becoming a little more ‘real’) she is starting to ask a lot of questions. I have already given her some tutorials on my own children and over email, but I would LOVE to help start her stash and let her know she CAN DO IT!!!!!

    My best friend is having a baby in July and we have been talking about cloth since she told me she was pregnant. When I first started with cloth when my own baby was born she was so intrigued and had wanted to CD her first but her husband at the time said absolutely not. Now, it’s an option and we have been talking about it ever since. we live in different states but right before she has the baby we are going to meet up and have a Diaper Day so i can show her how to use them, how to launder them, etc. If I can get just one person to stop using paper panties then I have done my job. =)

    I would share the prize pack with my friend Katie – she had her first, a little girl, four months ago. I talked to her while she was still pregnant and they wanted to do cloth diapering, but didn’t really know where to start. I gave her a BG 3.0 One-Size (which is most of my stash) for her shower and recently gave her my four small BG AIO’s (my big baby outgrew these very quickly). It would be great to let her know that I support her – and maybe even be able to add some dipes to her stash that aren’t blue (I have boys, so I have mostly blue ones to share!). I have shown her how I used them on my two boys, and what works for them (I love Flips for my 2 year old and love my BG One-Size for my 5 month old). I’m also planning to make her some cloth wipes – I made some for myself using cute flannel I cut up. I love that I can not only use cloth dipers, but cloth wipes too – and it is all so much easier than I though it could be – I want to share it with the world!

    I would share my prize with my best friend, who is interested in using cloth, but intimidated by it and afraid to take the plunge. I know that once she tries it she will love it! We get together every other Saturday, so I would take it to her house and show her how to use them. Once she’s hooked, I’ll take her shopping at the Cotton Babies store!

    I would share it with my friend Jaime. She’s taken an interest in CD but is on an extremely tight budget. She’s tried to get in on the 2nds sales but has never been fast enough. She’s using a few borrowed diapers now to give it a try, but I’d love to be able to help her start to build her own stash! Although we live several states apart, we have already had several discussions about CD and how to use & care for them. Two other mutual friends who CD have also been talking with her and providing support (and the loaned diapers). We all wish we could actually talk face-to-face, but thank God for the wonders of modern technology that allow us to keep in close contact to provide a support network.

    I would love to share with a friend who started CDing when her son was a newborn, but then gave up once he switched to solids because “it was too gross!” I know I can convince her that it’s not as much work as she thinks and it could still be a great way to save money (and keep plastic out of landfills!) to switch back until our boys are potty-trained!

    I would share the diapers with my good friend who is currently pregnant. She is very open minded and would like to try cloth diapering. I would have her come to my house so I can show her all the different types of cloth diapers. I own econobum, flip, BG 3.0 (hook and loop), BG 4.0 (snaps), and elemental (organic). This way she can get a better feel for what type of cloth diaper would work for her.

    I would share with a friend who is pregnant with her first. Her hubby is all for cloth diapering & trying to convince her (and has told me he’s happy for my help…lol). I would help get her started right by forgoing gifts off the registry & instead getting her a good start of cloth diaper detergent & a good quality wet bag for the dirty diapers.

    I would share with my sister who is pregnant with her first child. I was hoping to introduce her to cloth while she was visiting me later this month (just having her see how I do it with my 2 who are still in diapers, I only recently began cloth diapering), unfortunately that trip has been canceled. But we talk, email, and skype often; so I’d be able to show her all about it when we skype.

    March 8, 2011 at 1:57 pm

    If I won, I would share it with my cousin! I LOVE cloth diapering and really think she would get a kick out of it too. It’s so soft on the baby’s bottom and my daughter has never (fingers crossed!) had diaper rash. Plus, it’s much better for the environment!

  • JamieLynn said...

I want to get the word out and tell everyone I know! My friend has sparked an interest and I would love to be able to fuel that even farther when she delivers her baby in six weeks!

  • Jena said...
    March 8, 2011 at 1:54 pm

I would go to her house and show her how it fits on her baby and explain how to take care of them and wash them. I would help her find the right diapers for her and her little one!

    If I won, I would share them with a friend of mine, who has expressed an interest in cloth diapering. Her parenting beliefs are very similar to mine, and cloth diapering is the logical way to go. I would suggest meeting perhaps for coffee, and our little ones could play, and I could show her how simple and effective cloth diapering is (not to mention adorable!). Econobums make it especially easy because the prefolds are super absorbent! I just know she would love them.

  • Melissa said...
    March 8, 2011 at 1:32 pm

    I have a few pregnant friends, but one in particular has asked me a few questions about “modern” cloth diapering. I would probably share with her! She doesn’t live far from me, so after her baby comes I’d probably go over to her place and show her how to use the diapers on her baby…I’d even be willing to come back and help her w/ that first load of laundry! We didn’t start using CDs until I our fourth was born. I really wish I’d known about them sooner, so I try to share what I’ve learned with everyone I can!

  • subaruthie said...
    March 8, 2011 at 1:26 pm

    When I chose to cloth diaper with BumGenius, no one believed me. So no one bought any of the diapers on our registries!!! My mother was the only exception, buying me an EconoBum kit, because those were the most similar to what she used when she cloth diapered me thirty years ago! Thankfully, we got a lot of money as gifts, and we were able to use that to buy our stash.

    I have several friends who are considering using cloth, and I’ve already shared my experience and answered a lot of questions. If they choose to use cloth, I WILL buy them diapers!!! (Or give them any diaper winnings; I have plenty of diapers now!)

    I would share with my sister in law. She knows we cloth diaper our babies, but has expressed concerns about start-up costs and ease of use. This would be a great way to get her to give it a try because who can argue with free? I’d send her a zippered pail for keeping dirties in and some cloth wipes too, because I think that would round out the package nicely for a mama just getting started.

    I would share with my friend that is trying to get pregnant. She has shown interest in them. Her mom cloth diapered and when she saw mine, she was amazed how easy and cute they are. So I know my friend will have family support. I think I’d have to walk her through the laundry part, but she is all about saving money. So she would be on board with trying.

    I’d share with my friend, G. She thought that she would never have biological children. She has adopted two beautiful children. This fall she found out that SURPRISE! Sheis pregnant with twins! Asa twin mom myself who uses flips, I want to let hierarchy know how easy cloth diapering really is!

    I would share (and will share my knowledge and experience anyway!) with my college friend, Jen, whose baby daughter was born the day after my daughter. We don’t live in the same state, but I’d love to go visit her for spring break so we can get our babies together while they’re still babies and I can bring some of my stash to show her how easy cloth is, even when travelling! She’s an environmentally minded woman, and once she sees how cute and easy cloth diapers can be, I know she’d be hooked like I am!

    If I won any of the prize packs I would share it with my friend Marcie. She just had a preemie and wants to cloth diaper but doesn’t have a lot of diapers yet. I’d love to bless her with more diapers to make her job easier, especially since she’s having such a rough time now!

    I can’t believe how easy it is to make a change in the world. Just by exclusively cloth diapering our son, we are making a huge difference. I tell everyone I know that we are cloth diapering and love it. My friends who are expecting, I have encouraged them all to try it. I have suggested they “like” cotton babies on FB and do some research. One of my best friends is pregnant with baby #4 and I have talked her into giving cloth a try. I will support her anyway I can through advice, also plan on giving her cloth diapers for baby gift. Lisa Busch

    I lead a Mom’s group and I am starting a free baby sign language class within it. This Monday I will be teaching a song in sign called “It’s time to change your diaper”. It is a fun song and I plan to use it as an opportunity to share “Change 3 Things” and also do a little demo with my BG diapers since I have some of each. We are located in Vancouver, WA so I have already had great luck in converting a few Moms and helping them benefit from the store!!! It would be awesome to be able to do a giveaway at the end of my spiel (:

    I just had a reunion with one of my old college friends…and she just had her first baby in February 2011 and I had my first in June 2010. We live close by one another but have lost touch these past few years. She had so many questions when we had an “accidental” reunion in Target. One of which was about cloth diapering (which I have done since birth). Long story short…I plan on guiding her in her cloth diapering experience, so winning this would just help me provide her with a little more incentive (free product)to start cloth diapering.

I would definitely help my cousin Kara out and send her some cloth! She is a wonderful Mommy to 6! She is cloth diapering 3 of her kids, but does not have enough cloth to do it full time. Thanks for the awesome chance! and thanks for a great organization to help spread the word! Yay cloth!

    I would share with a old friend from High school who has voiced her interest in cloth diapering. I’ve been talking her into clothing for awhile. She had a lot of bad thoughts about cloth diapers and I will show her how easy it would be. Even if I don’t win, I will most likely still share my info with her.

    Well, I’ve recently convinced one friend to go cloth & she just created a baby registry with Cotton Babies! I have another friend considering it and would love to be able to give them something to try. Plus the little info cards would be great to give those skeptics who think cloth is more expensive than disposables!

    I would give them to my brother and SIL who are expecting. My brother has expressed interest in the cloth diapers, but so far his wife isn’t on board. They are coming to visit the end of April, and they’ll definitely be getting a tutorial to show her how easy it actually is now, and show her how much money we’ve saved through switching. I’m pretty confident I’ll be swinging her over to my side, especially when she realizes how much cuter they are. ๐Ÿ™‚

I’ve already convinced my good friend Elizabeth to use bumgenius or flips, and she just got married and isn’t even pregnant yet! When the time comes, I’ll plan a girls weekend (as we live in different states) and show her the ropes. Looking forward to it!

    I would share with my best friend from high school. She just had her 5th baby and with each baby she say’s she’d love to try and cloth diaper and will start when she gets her income tax return, but never does. Once again, they’ve spent the entire return on other “necessities”. I’d share some of my stash with her, but I’ve just had a baby too.
    I have shown her how easy it is and how much money she could save but it is so hard to start and build a stash. Even the most economical diapers are still out of reach for the very poor families.
    Please help me give her this opportunity to start cloth diapering at least a few diapers a day.

    I would give the packs to a friend in South Korea. She is actually a Missourian, but is living there and pregnant. Cloth is NOT popular or even on the radar in that country. How cool would it be for her to start an international trend?? She also has limitted laundry, so I think a flip and inserts or a flip and flats would be perfect for her!

    I would make a trip to visit my dear college friend, Kim, who I haven’t seen in two years, but who recently shared she is pregnant with her first at 38!! We talked about cloth diapering, and she doesn’t think her husband can do it–so she was just going to do disposable for the first six months, then switch to cloth!!! I think I’ve convinced her that it would be a much better decision to just start out with cloth and go with it!! If I won this I would absolutely figure out a way for us to get together, either before my 3rd arrives, or at least before her baby arrives!

    I bought Econobums for baby shower presents and first birthday gifts! I have decided to prep the cloth (even though it voids a warranty) so a mom can try it out right away.

    I would share these winnings with a local pregnancy resource center. I want to put out brochures and posters and etc up there instead of them just getting packs of Huggies to take home! I think this is a positive choice, along with choosing to be a mom, that a new mom can feel proud of, and also help with budgets!

    I would share with my friend Heather! She just found out she’s preggers with her 2nd baby and I think she would enjoy cloth diapering like me! I plan in taking one of each diaper (4.0, BGE, Flip (both inserts), and Econobum with some flats) to a playdate and showing her how to use them and how easy it can be!

    I love the Change 3 Things project! I’ve already converted my sister-in-law and my sister (she’s not due until September with her first). I would share the prize with a friend/coworker that is currently 6 months pregnant. I know they would not have the money to purchase the diapers up front and they will be struggling to purchase disposables along the way as well. I’d like to help her get started doing what’s better for her baby and the environment.

  • KuuKuu said...
    March 8, 2011 at 11:52 am

    I would share them with my new sister in law who just had her first baby. I would drive 100+ miles to deliver them personally. I would do all the prep work and show her all the differnt folds. I would show her which ones work best for little girls and show her the amazing poop pocket fold.
    I think the majority of parents would switch if they had a free trail to try and an expert to help out for the first week. Its easy and cheap. I spent $200 when my son was born and havent spent a cent since. As for the water and electricty that it takes to wash them. It raised them $3 more a month (and that includes baby clothes). If people just did the math they would be convinced.
    I have been cloth diapering for 10 years. I am in LOVE with the FLIPS! They are so easy and well made. Can’t wait for them to come in prints ๐Ÿ™‚

She has shown an interest in cloth diapering but is concerned about the price. I just showed her some of my diapers over the weekend, and she really loved the BG 4.0s. I would love to show her just how easy cloth diapers can be!!

    I would definitely share with a dear friend of mine who just found out she is pregnant with #3 just as #2 turned 1 year old. Two in diapers will be tough so I would hope I could turn her on to cloth for the savings and the ease of it. I would probably give her both packs since we are pretty much set with our stash. If she wouldn’t take them I’d give them to any momma in need.

    I actually have 2 friends who I’d like to help. If I won I’d probably give both packs away. My neighbor is pregnant with her 5th and has been very interested since I started cloth diapering. Her kids have all had reactions to disposables, so she’s had to buy special diapers already. I’ve been showing her my Flip she’s almost convinced, it’s now just a matter of convincing her husband. My other friend has been a friend since high school. Since we are both military wives we no longer live near each other but are constantly sharing baby items/advise with each other. We’ve now had 2 kids born within weeks of each other. When I started telling her I was going to Cloth diaper she started getting interested, but I think she was intimidated by price. I’d love to give her the opportunity to try them risk free.

    First of all I want to thank you for this challenge. I had a stash of cloth diapers I had sewn but hadn’t committed to use until I clicked your “like” button on facebook a while ago. Now we are CD almost exclusively. Last night was the first night we did a CD over night and it worked out perfectly. Thank you for inspiring me ๐Ÿ™‚

    I am torn between sharing the gift pack with my friend or my sister in law. I actually have two sisters in law that have recently had babies and I would love to share CD with them. My friend had tried it once with her first child but didn’t really know what to do and it ended up leaking everywhere. If I got one of the prize packs I would show her how the new diapers work and how easy it is to use them.

    Thanks!

    We’re new to cloth diapering for our 5 month old! We started at 4 months. We’ve only been able to buy a few diapers at a time, so currently we have 7 cloth diapers. I am unemployed due to lack of jobs where I live and my husband is a middle school teacher in a low income school district. We’re totally in love with cloth diapering, but wish we had more diapers. Slowly but surely we will CHANGE all of our disposables over to cloth.

    If we won, we’d share cloth diapering with some of our good friends who are due at the end of August. They’re another family who teaches and would like to try to save money as much as possible and also all about changing our planet.

I know if she actually had some diapers to try out and use that she would more then likely make the change!!!

    I would give them to my good friend’s twenty something daughter who is having her first baby next month. My friend is totally into natural things that are good for the earth. Also her daughter doesn’t have a lot of extra money and will probably be in for a shock with all her new expenses. It would be a thrill to show her daughter how to cloth diaper and show her how rewarding it is.

I would love to give one of them Econobums to try, but I would also offer to lend them some of our diapers to test out. I have more than enough!

    I would probably share with my sister. She thought I was crazy until she saw me change one and is now on the fence. So hopefully it would push her over. Then she would just has to convince her husband.

    I would share with my sister in law. I am committed to not only changing 3, but all my diapers! She has seemed interested in flips or econobums for around the house but she needs some convincing. I think a free sample of some dipes is just what she needs to get started. I have a 6 month old and she has an almost 2-year-old and one due in June!

    I would share with my friend who is expecting her first. She’s a conservation biologist who clearly has concern for the environmental impact of disposable diapers, but isn’t sure where to start with cloth. We talked on the phone last night for a LONG time! It would be great to be able to start her stash for her!!

    I would share them with my sister-in-law. She’s just turned 21, and had our little niece at 29 weeks back in November. They got to bring her home a few weeks ago, she weighs 7 lbs now, and they are trying to figure out how to make everything work because neither have steady jobs currently because of health issues. I would drive to visit them (over an hour away), cuddle with my little neice, show her how easy it is to change a cloth diaper, and be open to any questions she would have. Cloth diapers have definitely made an impact on my family’s finances (and I just found out I’m expecting #2, with #1 only 14m old…)

    great idea, I would share with a friend that has just found out she is pregnant and is interested in cding. Her family is against it so I would love to show them how easy it is.

    I would share with an outreach program call Spreading the Fluffy Love (http://www.facebook.com/#!/Spreadingthefluffylove). I don’t know anyone personally who is pregnant, or with little kiddos. The program Spreading the Fluffy Love would be able to find these diapers a great home to someone who can’t afford to start up with cloth. Even going part time will free up a little bit of money that they might be able to purchase more diapers. They are in the process of getting 3 moms set up (though they will have to wash daily), and they know of many more moms would want to make the change but need help.

    Thanks

    I am already a local spokesperson for cloth diapering! I’ve got 2 friends using cloth, and one of them has already passed on the love! ๐Ÿ™‚ I think if I won I would take it to my mom’s group and do a group demonstration/talk about using cloth, and woo everyone with my cute dipes and all the money I save. ๐Ÿ™‚ Then I could give them to someone ready to make a change. Maybe all 15 + moms would change!

  • Amber said...

    I’d share with one of my friends who is expecting her first and has been asking me about cloth diapers. What a way to show her how great they are by giving her a free sample! ๐Ÿ™‚ Then she can see how easy cloth diapering can be before having to buy her own. I recently had to put my baby in disposable for a medicine she was taking (lots of diahhrea) and hated how much I was wasting (money and trash). So glad to be done with that and we are back in our cloth! ๐Ÿ™‚

    I would share with a friend of mine that is in a tough spot right now. She is very interested in using cloth diapers but does not have the money for the upfront cost of buying cloth diapers. I bought her daughters 6 (3 of them were free) of the econobum diapers while they were on sale. She is loving the diapers I got her and they have already saved her alot of money but with 2 little ones in diapers the 6 diapers I bought her just arn’t enough.

    I would definitely introduce my pregnant friend to cloth diapering. She is a teacher so funds are limited. I would tell her how affordable cloth diapers are (by comparing disposable prices) and show her how easy cloth diapering is – even if she just does it part time.

    I have the perfect friend to share with! She’s the mama of a 2 yo who was diapered with sposies. She’s PG with baby #2 right now and is totally on the fence with CDing! I’ve been working on her, though! A free dipe would be VERY cool for her, especially since she is going to try to do this on a budget. She’s into BFing and co-sleeping already, and just needs a little push to come over to cloth! Pick us! Pick us, PLEASE!!!! She lives a few hours away from me, so I’d pack up my 20 mo old and drive up for the weekend…so we can show off my DDs BGs and show her how great they are! cristenhyde at gmail dot com

    I would love to introduce cloth diapers to the ladies at our church. It seems like our daughter is the only one there that uses them. I would like to start off with giving some to another stay at home momto let them see how easy it is. I would love to have a get together lunch/play date at our church and give demonstrations, instructions on how to take care of them, and be able to show all the options there are.

    I would definitely share with my good friend who is expecting to adopt her first child any day now. She and her husband can’t have children. Anyway, she is interested and has observed me cloth diapering before. I know she has poked around on the website, but hasn’t gotten anything yet. I would totally share my prize with her and encourage her to go cloth. ๐Ÿ™‚

  • Heather said...
    March 8, 2011 at 10:59 am

    Well one of my best friends recently fount out that she is going to be a grandmother. IF I were to win I’d share with her daughter. She’s barely 18 and going to need all of the support she can get but I think young mothers are completely unaware of the ease of modern cloth diapering. Id definitely explain and show her how easy the washing procedure is. I’d also share with her all of the diverse options – pockets, AIOs, hybrids. I’m sure the cuteness and cost savings would be most appealing to her though.

    I would share with my friend who is pregnant with her first child, a son with a kidney problem. She wants to cloth diaper and is very interested in the Cotton Babies products. We would get together and go over all the ways and options to use cloth diapers and wipes. I have cloth diapered from the very beginning and am a huge fan.

    Since my daughter is getting bigger, new diapering options would help us a lot too.

    I am so excited to be a part of something BIG. My friend truned me on to cloth diapers with my second kiddo and I am still using them with my third. I have “converted” 2.5 of my friends to using cloth diapers (2 full time and 1 person about 50% of the time, hence the .5)

    If I won the contest, I would share with my friend who is due in a month. She is on the fence about CD…she LOVES the idea but isn’t sure about the process or how truly easy they are. I intend to visit her after the baby is born and take over a few CD for her to use. I will help her with the changing, cleaning and care of them. I look forward to “converting” another mama.

    That is kind of a tough one for me. Although I know someone close that is adopting a baby in a couple of months, they also know I cloth diaper and openly and vehemently oppose it out of disgust. (Can you believe that it’s my mother?) However I live in a community that is considered very ‘green’ and the local Breastfeeding coalition has just started a “Happy Heiny’s” program where they are helping families in need get into cloth diapering so I would donate my winnings to them. I’ve been wanting to do something but my own finances keep me from buying any and my stash is just exactly enough for my little guy. I was planning on donating them after he is potty trained though either way!

    I would, without a doubt, share my prize with my sister-in-law. She is a mother of two. Her oldest daughter is now potty-trained, but has scars on her genitals from having constant diaper rash. Her infant son is in sposies and has had his share of rashes as well. I have shared information on cloth diapering and how my son never has a diaper rash, but I think she finds it intimidating. I think just having a starter kit given to her might help her ease into it.

Several of them are pregnant or have small children in diapers and I hope to convert at least one to cloth diapers, so I would give the diapers to one of them. I’ve been planning to start giving cloth diapering workshops in my area one of these days for anyone who might be thinking of transitioning to cloth. I just love talking about fluff and showing others how easy it is to use cloth diapers.

    I would share with a family friend who I have already given a diaper demonstration/tutorial to. She showed some interest but shied away because of her concern about the start up costs. I just sent her 4 covers and 6 inserts (from three different types of diaps, BG 4.0, Flip, & econobum, so she could try them and see which she preferred) but I would like to send her some more so the laundry loads will seem more worthwhile and she can feel more financial relief. I also plan to collect cloth diaps for my sister, who showed a purely financial interest in them after I gave her a tutorial.

    How I’ve shared in the past is to invite my girlfriend over that showed me cloth and then invite other ladies who are interested. We show off all of our stash while the kids romp. That way they get a wide variety of options, but we do tend to have a lot of the same stash! When people see my babies diapers they ask and I’m always telling them how simple and fun it is!

    If I won I would share with my BFF who is due in a few weeks with her 3rd. She has expressed interest in using cloth with this baby after seeing me use cloth on my 3 girls who are all in diapers still. I have already purchased her a few Econobums from when you had the BOGO event but I only got 2. I would love to be able to help her start off with as many diapers as possible.
    I have also told her about the Change 3 Things program and encouraged her to try cloth even PT because if she could do even 3 diapers a day it would make a HUGE difference.
    She is excited to try and I already plan to go to her house after her baby is born to help teach her not only how to use the cloth but also how to clean and care for them as well.

    My great friend and former college roommate and I just had a talk last night about whether she would try them if I gifted them to her at her upcoming baby shower. She said yes, so if I won this giveaway, I’d be able to give her EVEN MORE diapers! She’s seen my daughter’s diapers and she even said that her husband had brought up trying cloth, but they couldn’t justify the expense with their toddler so close to potty training. Now with a new little one on the way, I’m excited they’re giving them a try!

    I’d like to put together a whole package with a couple of different types of diapers, a pail liner, wet bag, and some detergent samples. That could be expensive so I’m entering plenty of giveaways! ๐Ÿ™‚

I’d also try to share with another friend who is expecting twins this summer… so very likely the ONLY thing I’d get to keep for myself is the shirt! ๐Ÿ˜‰ I’d take my son along with me for a demo – that kid can demonstrate the power of cloth diapers like no other!

    I have a home daycare, and would share the gift with my daycare families! I would love to be able to offer them a chance to try cloth diapers! I have been trying to convert them for a while!!

    If I were chose, I would share my prize with one gal on the mission field. Not only is money tight over there, but resources altogether! There is a family staying on ferlough right now from Chile sent out from our church and there’s a new addition to their family. I would LOVE to show the mama how to cloth her baby girl before they leave back to Chile! In fact I’ve been trying to figure out a way to get to know her better anyway, cloth diapering would be a great way to get to know her! Just a little humor here, but everybody I turn to CD’s my husband calls them my “diaper disciples”.

    My old college roommate is due right around the same time I am. I’m sure she’s not familiar with cloth – I mentioned it once but she didn’t seem that interested, I think she was picturing something difficult. I think she’d be perfect to gift the econobums to!

    I would share with on of my internet friends. She’s really excited about cloth diapers, and I think a diaper gift would really help her feel like she could do it.

    I’d share with my SIL, the proud mother of five, including a four-month-old. She was thinking about it, but then decided she didn’t want to do any more laundry. I’d share it and spend a day showing her how easy it is to just throw the diapers in there and be done with it. It may not work, but it would be so worth the try!

    I would share with someone at our church. There are lots of babies there and the nursery would be a great place to have a CD show and tell!!!

    If I win I’d share the prize pack with my college friend. She is a new single mom who is doing a wonderful job! She mentioned not understanding the cloth diaper language recently. She seems interested in how everything works. I would have a playdate get together with her to show her the ins and outs of how to cloth diaper with ease.

    If I win I’ll share with my newest pregnant friend who is curious about cloth diapers ๐Ÿ™‚
    We’ll be doing a diaper demo at her house with all kinds of cloth for her to see.

    If I won I would share this with one of my many friends who are pregnant and are thinking about cloth diapering. Unfortunately, I do not live close to them. But I do talk about cloth diapering a lot in my working moms group and people ask me questions all the time!

    What a great giveaway! We have a 6 month old daughter who has been cd’d since the day she was released from the NICU. Since then I have given a demonstration to my sister who is due in June. She has already started to build her stash for my little nephew. If I won the prize I would share the econobums with my cousin in law. She has watched me cd my DD and is very interested in cd her next baby. If I gave her a demo it would be how to wash your diapers. People think its so hard and when I explain how easy it is they never believe me. This prize would be a great start to her stash. Thank you Cotton Babies for all you do. Cloth diapering is so easy and cost efficient for a single income family. Michelle

    I would give the prize to my step daughters mother so she could be in cloth all the time. Then I could also quite buy disposables to send her over in. If she wanted I would be more the happy to show her how to use them and wash them.

    I am offering cloth diaper classes to the community starting the 16th of next month (I’m very excited!) I’ve been trying to gather different styles of diapers so the prize for me would be used for that for sure.

    The prize for a friend would most likely go to a new friend of mine who is very interested in cloth for her baby boy. She’s a great woman and I’m confident that once she tries it, there will be no going back ๐Ÿ™‚

    This is a great campaign, so happy to spread the word!

    One of my college roommates is now one of my favorite playdate mommies but she is extremely skeptical of cloth diapering. If I were to win, I would share the prize with her. I would spend a day with her and take over all diaper duties (using cloth of course!) to show her how easy it really is!

    I would love to win one of the prize packs to gift to a friend that just found out that she is pregnant with her second child. She will have 2 children in diapers for almost 2 years after her new baby is born and I would love to be able to give her another option than using expensive disposables. I personally use only Bumgenius 4.0, Flips, and Econobums so I would be able too give her a tutorial on any of those wonderful products. Thank you CottonBabies for the great giveaway and the Change 3 Things campaign!

    I am a military spouse and there are a lot of women in this community that are pregnant or have just had a baby and I’d love to share cloth diapering with all of these ladies! Not only because they will save money, but because it will help the environment AND since these women will soon up and move somewhere else, we could help spread cloth diapering across America!!

    I also have a passion for CDing and I REALLY like prefolds! Crazy I know, and of course I have pockets, AIOs, etc, but I think that a lot of people would rethink CD if they see how EASY and CHEAP it can be. (E.g., grab a prefold, fold it, slap it in a Econobum cover, snap it closed and VOILA! DONE!)

    Thanks for your campaign! I hope that it spreads quickly! I know I am sharing it with all my mom friends!!! ๐Ÿ™‚

    I think I would share with a coworker who is expecting. I’ve already talked to her some about cloth diapering. I’d tell her more on how to use them, clean them, etc. Show her that they really aren’t that difficult to use.

    If I won, I’d share the prize with my sister-in-law. She and my brother had a baby a few days ago, and although she is overwhelmed with being a new mother, I think starting small with cloth diapering would make things a little more tolerable for her right now.

    I would love to share them with the owner of our daycare as she has a son te same age as mine. I think that if she saw how easy it is she’d be more open to letting parents send them in for their kids.

    March 8, 2011 at 8:45 am

    If I won I would share the prize with a friend of mine who is having her second child very soon. She seemed generally interested in cloth diapers when she saw me changing my son last week. I have already shown her my favorites (the 4.0 and the Elemental) and I would take the time to share info about her new diapers too! The fact that cloth isn’t scary is one that I try to pass on to as many friends as possible.

    I’m dying to ge my friend Annie to try cloth diapers, she works and since I’m a SAHM she thinks it’s something she cannot do, our babies are only 3 months apart and it would be very good to get together more often and show her how much money she could actually save by switching and she wouldn’t have to worry about rashes anymore. I would love to have this opportunity to show her how easy it is to wash and care for cloth diapers.
    Thanks for this opportunity!

    I would share with my pregnant friend. When I was pregnant and someone showed me their cloth diapers, I remember thinking, there is no way I would ever do this. It wasn’t until I was pregnant with baby #2 and the thought of paying for 2 babies in disposables was just daunting, that I considered cloth. I am now completely in love with cloth for my 2 baby girls. If I had some cloth diapers in hand sooner and had the chance to try them and see how easy to use and wash they really are, I may have become a cloth convert much sooner. ekallenberg@gmail.com

    I’ll be honest, I don’t have a specific person in mind who could receive a gift. I have talked to all of my friends who have young children in diapers already, and so far none have been open to the idea. However, I would gladly try again to see if a free sample would change their mind about trying! I already talk about cloth diapers with friends who do not have children of their own yet- even some that are not yet married. ๐Ÿ˜‰ I am passionate about cloth diapering because of the huge difference it has made for our household. In addition to the financial and environmental benefits, I truly believe that it makes my daughter happier. On the rare occasion we have to place her in a disposable diaper now, she protests! I am so glad we discovered cloth with our first, because we will never go back.

    Even though I am new to cloth diapering (still awaiting our own little one) I am sold on it. I have four rugby friends that are all expecting this summer and I would love to share my prize with one of them! We talk about CDing and I think at least one of them would be open to trying it so a free set would go a long way towards her decision. I was going to get her a couple for her shower next month, too!

    Good Morning! I think the FB page is wonderful! It is awesome to see so many people making the public commitment. I have several friends that are expecting their first child over the summer. I would share the gift with one of them and give them a tutorial at their home while bringing a yummy snack and herbal tea. I was so confused about CDing when I was pregnant and really wish I would had a friend to show me the way. I would also emphasize it doesn’t have to be all or nothing. You can CD on your maternity leave and then on evenings/weekends when you go back to work!

  • Kristi26 said...
    March 8, 2011 at 7:24 am

    Good morning! I just “liked” the new FB page. ๐Ÿ™‚ I know exactly who I would share this prize with too! I have a friend who’s new to the area and is very interested in trying out cloth diapers. I’d give it to her so she could finally get started. And I think I’d do it during a playdate with our kids. While we were together, I’d show her how to use them and explain my wash routine.

    Everyone seems to want to know about this “cloth diapering business” and seem to think my kid is crawling around with my great-grandmother’s baby diapers with pins and rubber pants! They can’t believe when I show them the cloth diapers of today! I have told countless people how simple, easy, affordable, and earth-conscious cloth diapering is! I am a doula and I am currently working with military spouses in Okinawa, Japan. I’d give the goodies to my clients- because I firmly believe that once you try it, you’d never go back to those smelly old disposables!!

  • Jill said...
    March 8, 2011 at 6:36 am

    I have several people who have contacted me about cloth diapers since they are pregnant and don’t know how they will pay for diapers. I would likely contact them 1 at a time and see if they would like the free diapers and offer to give them a tutorial using a teddy bear or show them on my daughter with an old diaper of hers and let them practice.

    Hi! Good morning for you, good evening for me! I live in Okinawa Japan and I would love to help my sister get started on cloth diapering. She is always asking me about my diapers and I know once she tried them out, she would be fully converted!! Since we live thousands of miles away, I would flat-rate them to her and schedule a skype date for me to go through the contents with her!! Probably my morning and her evening (because of the time change) so I know I’LL be having coffee! She doesn’t have internet at her house so maybe I can arrange for ALL my sisters (I have 6) to be at my parents’ house for a demonstation. We’ll probably ooo and aaaaah over each others’ babies and kids and eventually get down to business ๐Ÿ™‚ … Oh and in my flat-rate shipment to her, I’d include all the diapers my daughter has grown out of – she’s my 3rd child and last!

    Glad to see the new fb page up and running, yay!!!!
    If I won, I would share it with my friend from Brazil who is pregnant. Modern cloth diapers are practically nonexistant in Brazil, and I’d like to introduce my friends over there to the wonders of it! I’m going there in April, so I get to show her how to use them!
