DD learned to crawl but she does it in a butt scoot and leans to the right...so her diaper is always leaking to the right whn they've never leaked before.

Any suggestions? We are working on fixing her scoot, but until then I hate having to constantly change her clothes.

Well I havent used CD yet but so far I like the concept of AI2s. They are a little
Pricier but IMO they're easy cause you don't have to stuff pockets. But u can reuse the cover if only the soaker gets wet. AIOs you have to change Everytime but it's more similar to disposable diapering except you don't throw it away. So that might be easiest. But what's easiest for me might not be easiest for you so you just have to see what seems te best for your style.

I hate tracking shipments! I have an order from sunbabies and kawaii diapers coming in soon and the info I get fro the sunbabies tracking info is that my iapets have been in shanghai since the 1st of the months. Nothin has changed. Then then my kawaii info says my diapers have been in Oregon since the 6th (estimated delivery is Tuesday). I'm going crazy! I have had no luck with past diaper orders so I'm hoping these 2 orders go my way or I give up. Sometimes I feel that the universe is trying to force me into disposables!

What kind of diapers? I've found that something with an extra gusset (thirsties duo wraps were my favorite) help in that awkward scooting stage. We used prefolds and fitteds with our thirsties covers.

Hmmm, I gave away my only gusseted, maybe I can sell some of what we have now for gusseted ones. Thanks for the idea. We have tons of prefolds already, so that should help

Any kind in particular you would suggest?

I doubt it will even out because or her stinkin torticollis. Sucks, but I'm trying to focus on her walking moreand wean off the scooting, ugh.

I've only used the Thirsties duo wraps because I had an Amazon gift card when I needed covers

HALP! How long is too long to not wash diapers? I wash MWF, never on the weekends because we usually have a lot going on. So, I'm supposed to be washing today (it's been 3 days), but I'm super sick and I can't even lift the pail My mother took B and she's in sposies so it's not like I'm gonna run out of diapers.
Should I wash them later? Or can they wait for tomorrow?
I rinse out everything before putting it in the pail, so there's no strong odor or anything.

They can wait. Lately I've been washing like once a week (Brighton has been in sposies). They come out perfectly fine. I do two cycles with no detergent instead of one at the beginning to make sure they are well rinsed before the detergent cycle though. I normally only do one when they are washed more frequently.
