Plastic Pants Cloth Diapers Older Kids

Been giving a lot of thought to the whole Covid-19 situation, and how so many shelves in isles at grocery stores are bare, even entirely empty. Toilet paper, paper towels, even diapers...

Cloth Diapers With Rubber Pants

When we entered the store a sales clerk asked my Mom if she could help her find any thing and my Mom said that she was looking for some night diapers and plastic panties for an older child that wet the bed. The clerk smiled at us and said to follow her as they had a special section just for bedwetters.

  1. Finding plastic baby pants to fit her big baby might be a problem, she thought, but he was fairly slim and she decided to try the largest pair she could find. Lauren picked out a package of flat birdseye diapers and a package of the Diaper Service prefolds as well as a three pack of the largest size baby pants and a package of baby blue diaper.
  2. NOT UNDERWEAR BUT UNDERCARE. Bedwetting is a common condition which affects all age groups. Our exclusive Race Car Diapers specialized for bigger boys between the ages of 8 to 15 years old. Kids and older teens often discover that Pull-Up style disposable briefs are not absorbent enough and too small to be effective. We also offer the Star Training Pants and Star Plastic Pants as a machine.
gone, entirely sold out most days, and when stores do restock the shelves with these paper products, nothing lasts more than a few hours before shelves are empty again.

When my kids were little I used cloth diapers, and no, not today's fancy-schmancy, newfangled Velcro closing cloth diapers, ugh-uh... I'm talking good old-fashioned cloth diapers, the kind that needed to be folded, fastened with pins, and topped with rubber pants. Not only did I survive as a mom, my children survived, and aside from the exponential savings I enjoyed, how nice it was not to be inconvenienced with having to run to the store to buy Pampers or Huggies, and with cloth, not once did I ever run out of fresh clean diapers.
Wet and dirty diapers were kept in a plastic diaper pail until laundry day, then when laundry day arrived (every 2-3 days for diapers), diaper pail was emptied into the washing machine, a wash-cycle was started, bleach and detergent was added, and when the washing machine finished doing it's thing, into a laundry basket all was transferred, and with trusty laundry basket in tow, out the back porch door I'd go to hang all on the clothesline to dry.
On a typical sunshiny, summer day, diapers were dry in an hour, so back outside with my trusty ole laundry basket in-hand I'd go, clothespins were released, the washing pulled down, then back into the house I'd go. Diapers were folded according to requirement and use... single-fold diapers for daytime, double-fold diapers for naptime, nighttime, and outings, and/or, for the older ones wearing diapers (older baby/toddler stage). Freshly folded diapers were then walked down to the baby room, diapers stacked on top of the dresser, and the process of changing and washing began it's perpetual cycle again.
Rubber pants off, unlatch and pluck pins from diaper, diaper into pail, refasten fresh clean diaper using pins (one pin on each side of the diaper), rubber pants back on. Having grown up helping my mom with the care of baby siblings, I changed lots of diapers, and as to be expected for the day, my mom used cloth diapers and rubber pants. Same when I started babysitting for neighbourhood moms... old-fashioned cloth diapers, diaper pins, and rubber pants, and all for .25ยข an hour!Kids
