Diapers
We have also discussed whether we plan to use cloth or disposable diapers. This conversation stemmed from blog posts by Young House Love, Bower Power and The Organ Family.
Mostly we agreed that our frugal selves are all for cloth diapers.
Reality suggests we will use both – i.e. we aren't going to drop our kid
off at a church nursery or with a baby sitter and insist they use
cloth.
*Update: We used cloth diapers for the first 1.5 years ago) and it was one of the best decisions we made.
Things we have yet to discuss:
Baby Names – we are waiting to find out the gender before we put a lot of energy into this...
The Nursery – besides agreeing which room will be used, we haven't put any thought into this since gender is an important factor.
Registering for Baby Crap Stuff – not really on our radar. I don't think either of us are ready for our house to be taken over by baby things.
I
feel like baby web sites and books have all of these lists of things
you are supposed to be planning for and thinking about. We just aren't
there. We have until November, there is no huge hurry to jump into this
parenting thing. We are enjoying our life as it is right now. Yeah, we
talk about stuff but we aren't making concrete plans or worrying about
the future. We are taking life in stride. We will get around to the
important things like finding the right car seat soon enough.
