Before we dive in, let me start by saying that I am a huge fan of cloth diapers. They're eco-friendly, economical, and gentle on baby's skin. However, it seems to me that many people equate modern cloth diapers with pocket diapers. And while pocket diapers certainly have their merits, they aren't the be-all and end-all of cloth diapering. Let's talk about why.

Using cloth diapers has been quite a journey for us - rewarding yet challenging. We started this adventure to ensure our baby's comfort and well-being. But using a shared washing machine, we faced unexpected obstacles and triumphs that I would like to share with you.

Let's be honest - no matter what you do, cloth diapers will inevitably take up more space in your luggage compared to the credit card you need for purchasing disposable diapers at your destination. However, if you're determined to continue using cloth diapers while traveling, there are a few things you can do to make your life easier.
