  1. We've used cloth when traveling & staying with relatives that would let us use their washer/dryer. We've also tried gDiapers on a shorter vacation in a hotel. And, we've used disposables before too. So really a variety!

  2. As long as I have access to laundry facilities, I just use cloth when traveling. Otherwise, I suppose I would use disposables.

    ReplyDelete
  3. I actually just tried gDiapers for the first time during a weekend trip and LOVED them! We flushed the inserts. The only thing we had to worry about cleaning was the wipeable, easily cleaned plastic liner (I handwashed in the hotel sink with soap). We never had to wash the cloth gpants while we were traveling--they stayed clean the whole time. (We rotated 3 pairs.) We will totally use these again when we go somewhere with limited/no access to laundry!

  4. Depending on how long my trip is or where i am going. if a long weekend and driving, I will bring my cloth diapers, a mixture on AIO/pockets/prefolds. If travelling for more than 4 days, or via plane, I will use disposables.

  10. I actually use either cloth, if it's a short trip (like a weekend) or gdiapers if it's a week long or more trip.
    G-diapers were my original intro to anything cloth, so I really truly <3 them.
    Just last week they were king enough to send me velcro to replace on my g-pants so they'll be good as new this weekend : )

  12. This would be a great diaper system to try out when traveling....I love that it provides options for cloth inserts or disposable. As it is, we use either use our pocket diapers or disposables when traveling, depending on the situation.

  15. When I'm traveling, I usually still use my Bum Genius 3.0s, unless I'm staying overnight somewhere. In that case, I take disposables. I don't want to pack back too many dirty nappies.

  20. We are going to use cloth diapering when our baby arrives in Dec, but as for what we will do while traveling...I'd like to say we will stick with the cloth diapers, especially if we have access to a washing machine on our travels. But, being realistic, there might be some disposables mixed in for convenience!

    i would love to try gdiapers too!

    ReplyDelete
  23. I finally was brave enough to use cloth on our last week long trip. It went GREAT! I was surprised. We are planning another week long trip to the same location(it is a conference) and I plan to bring cloth again. I had bought a few extras to make it a bit easier but hardly even needed them!

    ReplyDelete
  24. I use either cloth or disposable, depending on where I go and my access to a washer/dryer.

    ReplyDelete
  25. I have to be honest and say I use disposables when we travel, just for ease... we use G-diapers at home though, and need the next size up, so this giveaway would be perfect! =)

    ReplyDelete
  26. I am still pre-baby but I have 2 little gDiapers to try out when traveling and not. :) It seems like a great alternative while camping and traveling for long periods.

  28. The type of diaper system I use depends on where I am traveling to and how long I will be gone. I generally use disposables when we travel, however, I am relatively new to cloth diapering and plan to cloth diaper whenever I can when we travel from now on. I will use the cloth diapers I already have, which include bumGenius, Fuzzi Buns, and Smartipants. I wouldn't mind trying gDiapers as well!

    ReplyDelete
  29. I typically use 7th Generation disposables when I travel, mostly to save room when packing (2 kids in diapers!). I've been wanting to try gDiapers, but I've been hesitant to spend the money in case it doesn't work for me.

    ReplyDelete
  30. I would like to use a biodegradable system when traveling, but in the past have resorted to disposables. Hated every minute and baby got diaper rash within 36 hours!

  34. I would love to use a hybrid system (like g-diapers) where I could have the option of using cloth, but be able to use a flushable liner in when we're traveling.

    ReplyDelete
  35. We usually use disposables, though I hate to do that because we travel frequently. Depending on the length of our trip and where we're going, we sometimes take cloth along as well.

  37. I have used disposables (awful) and cloth (fabulous) when traveling. I would not use disposables again, ever. They give my daughter a rash every time, and they are disgusting. I loved using my cloth, except I really missed my diaper sprayer!

  39. I don't use diapers yet, but my plan is like this: If we travel but its only a day or maybe one night and we go by car then cloth diapers will be fine. But if we travel across country and we are gone for a week or so, then I can't see bringing cloth diapers with us, so we would buy disposables when we arrive.

    ReplyDelete
  40. I'd like to try flushable when traveling. I use disposable right now, but would like to use my cloth diapers more.

    ReplyDelete
  41. I blogged at http://daydreamingofclothdiapers.blogspot.com/

    ReplyDelete
  42. I would travel with cloth. I don't see much difference than using disposable as long as you have means to wash them. With this particular diaper I think the refills would be nice.

    ReplyDelete
  43. If I had the chance to travel... (more than just to the grocery store!) I would use cloth at night since my kids sleep so well in their cloth diapers, and probably try flushable while out and about. I don't like the idea of carrying around dirty cloth diapers if I can't wash them at home.

    ReplyDelete
  44. We're using cloth while traveling and just bringing a really big wet bag for the 20 hour drive. My daughter screams like a banshee if you try to put her in a sposie, so if I have to strip her dipes at home I just let her "free range" for a bit!

    ReplyDelete
  45. I would probably go cloth still, as our traveling almost always includes staying with family.

  47. We decide on which diapering system depending on where we travel--if we are in a hotel that is like Residence Inn (has washer/dryer capabilities) or staying at a friend's or relative's house, we will bring cloth diapers. If we are flying and shorter on space we'd, unfortunately, bring sposies :(

  52. I am just starting to try out cloth diapers so I have been using disposables when traveling. Although, as I get more comfortable with cloth, I would like to use those all the time.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Last summer for traveling I borrowed some gDiapers from my sister. I bought some disposable inserts and also took some flats to fold up in them. It worked great.

  54. Currently, we travel using cloth and in the past 14 months, have had no problems. We tried the g system and had horrible leak problems when my son was an infant. I still have some g refills that I use with other covers. I am very interested to see if the g cloths work because I love the concept.

  57. I haven't had to travel since I switched to CDs... so I really don't know. I think it would depend on the situation, really. But I think if all the ducks were in a row to use cloth, I'd do it that way.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Right now we use disposables since they seem to be most convenient, but something like G diapers would be a great alternative.

  62. I expect we will use cloth if traveling to stay with family and disposables in other cases.

    ReplyDelete
  63. All of our traveling so far has been for 5-7 days so we've just used disposables. Our small car has been stuffed and there really hasn't been extra room for diapers. I would love a greener way to diaper during our vacations.

  67. When traveling lets say to the mall, I still prefer disposables. Then I don't have to lug around as much if a diaper is soiled. However, if I am away overnight then I continue to use our current system of prefolds day and disposables nights (still haven't found a cloth that works at night for us)

  68. Being an expectant mom and having decided on cloth diapers I would most likely use the same system while traveling; if I have access to a washer & dryer, however, if I were doing a road trip I would probably pick a biodegradable diapers for the convenience.

    ReplyDelete
  69. I like the gdipes for travelling because my wetbag doesn't get filled up so fast!

    ReplyDelete
  70. We use our Bum Genius when we are out and about. It is the most similar to the sposie and convenient for us.

    ReplyDelete
  71. We haven't used cd's yet, so I'd say disposables (since that's what we used with our last 3). However, when we have our next one, I think I'll end up using cd's all of the time, even traveling. No telling until that time comes though! =)

  74. When traveling I'd use the same diaper system as I do at home... my homemade pocket diapers stuffed with prefolds, because they are the easies for me to use they pull apart and dry quickly.

    ReplyDelete
  75. My baby is due in a few weeks and I have been pondering this question. Actually, just yesterday I decided to get some g-diapers for that purpose! I could always use more!

    ReplyDelete
  76. I think it depends on where I'm traveling as to what I'd use. If I'm going to someone's house for a short visit I'd use cloth but if I'm going on an extended vacation I hate to say it, but I might use sposies.

    ReplyDelete
  77. I always use cloth when traveling! I love my pockets and I can't imagine using anything else. Why spend money on stinky disposables when I already have everything I need? I don't find it to be any more difficult with cloth.

  83. It depends on where we are going. If we are going someplace we could wash, I'd definitely go cloth. But if it's a trip we wouldn't be able to wash I'd do disposable. Or think about trying the G-diapers, and buy extra covers!!

  99. I use gdiapers when I am out and about and when traveling. I made my own cloth inserts for them before they started selling them. I really like gdiapers and would love some mediums since my little one is just a couple of pounds away from moving up. I also use gdiapers with a disposable insert with my 2 year old regularly in the morning (for his daily BM)and then when we are out and about. I love the flexibility with them and they are pretty cute too.

    ReplyDelete
  100. We use cloth no matter where we go. But going on long car trips using a diaper like gDiapers would probably come in handy. That would make things so much easier.

    ReplyDelete
  101. We use disposables at night since 3 inserts still leaks. If we are just going for the weekend, we use cloth. If we are going to be gone for a week, we'll use disposables.

    ReplyDelete
  102. I would probably still use cloth. Most of our traveling is visiting family and staying with them. Of course, we haven't gone anywhere since my daughter was born 19 months ago, so I am sure this is a moot point :)

    ReplyDelete
  103. We've only been traveling once since switching to cloth , and we stayed at a beach house with a washer and dryer. It worked out great to use cloth and wash every other day. I don't know what I would do if we stayed somewhere without laundry access. We would probably use natural disposables or look into one of the new hybrid systems (I just ordered my first Flip diaper!) It would depend on what was most cost effective.

  115. I've never used cloth diapers but want to try them, my friend uses them and has gotten me interested, I just need to get started! I' ve only ever used disposables so if I was to travel I would probably use the inserts so clean up wouldn't be a worry for the host.
