Part 1 of The gDiaperies: Your Change Station 101

Welcome to my latest blog entitled The gDiaperies. My objective in this series is to explore and share the wonders of cloth diapering with gDiapers. It is my hope that you will find each chapter helpful and perhaps even insightful as you too navigate the uncharted waters of the cloth.

Part 1- Your Change Table 101

Lesson #1: Having a clean and organized diaper area is the key to an enjoyable cloth diapering experience. One of the first things I hear new gMum's ask when getting started with gDiapers is "But don't you find it too much work?" The answer I would say is "You decided!" I believe that if you have an organized change station, you are one step closer to an awesome gexperience.

Call me weird but I love organization. I find that when I am organized, I am less stressed. When I know where things are and where I can find them, life is good. It's no different with my change table. Everything has a place which makes diaper changing a breeze.


On my top shelf (above) from left to right I have my homemade wipes, my basket of loaded gDiapers, and disposable wipes. On my bottom shelf (below) from left to right I have my wetbags and extra cloths, snap-in liners, and disposable diapers including flushies.


I keep a Diaper Genie next to my diaper station for overnight disposable changes or when friends pop in and need somewhere to pitch their poop (above). All my extras (disposables, wipes, coupons, and different size pants) are stored in my daughter's bedroom closet (below). It makes for a quick grab and once again, everything has a place. It makes for a harmonious house when my husband and I both know where to look for diaper stuff and find it every time.


So I challenge you to create a diaper station that's all your own. Enjoy and be creative. That's the end of this chapter. Happy Diaper Days, y'all!
