Well I can't say I've heard much lamenting on how things "were", but I certainly do remember.
When I had my first baby I swore I'd use cloth diapers. I mean, I'd save money, and just have to wash more every day Right?
When I left the hospital they gave me a goodie bag (yea, can you imagine?) including a few disposable diapers. I think I used one cloth diaper and when I went to change a "dirty" diaper the first time, I said, "the heck with this" and busted out the disposables.

including a few disposable diapers. I think I used one cloth diaper and when I went to change a "dirty" diaper the first time, I said, "the heck with this" and busted out the disposables.
