This is not my first cloth diaper rant. It most likely won't be my last. WHY am I having such difficulty with these things? We have had endless leaks, I've stripped them dozens of times, contacted the manufacturer, tried different inserts, doubled the inserts, changed the sizing...I just can't win. It is so frustrating to always be changing not only the diaper that didn't do its job but also the pants/tights/skirt Samara happens to be wearing as well. I think I'm going through more laundry with her now than I did when she was a newborn!
Now the latest problem is that they could knock you over with the ammonia smell. Apparently this means there is buildup on the diapers. Great. I spent an extraordinary amount of money on "special" cloth diaper laundry detergent when our regular Tide Free didn't seem to be cutting it. What next?! I'm going to try a major strip with Oxyclean and bleach and hopefully that brings us at least to square 1. GRRRR...
And no, giving up is NOT an option. We spent way too much money on these things to switch now! Also, I'm stubborn as hell and I will not let them beat me!

It sounds like they're kicking your ass. Sometimes you just gotta know when to fold 'em sister. Know when to walk away, know when to run.
Know what I mean??
