Travel with Cloth

We went to see Nana out of town this weekend. Julia only used 2 disposables the whole time -- the car trip down and the car trip back. Go us!

I brought along 2 dozen prefolds figuring on 12 per day. The first day she went through 10 -- too distracted by new surroundings and paly to cue me. The second day we used much less since she was starting to cue again once the novelty wore off. I washed the first 10 in case I'd need them but it turned out I didn't so next time I'll see if I can just skip laundry at Nana's and be ok. It's a learning process.

We took her out to eat in cloth diapers both days and she required only 1 change while out for 2 hrs... so she's holding it. I'd brought 6, just in case, but I think I could do 4 comfortably and then leave back up in the car.

I thought cloth would make for a bulkier diaper bag, but it's not so bad. We're using an Eastpak with several compartments and it may be TOO big. If I can find a mini eastpak that might be worthwhile and we'll leave the big one for overnights
