G diapers were invented by a mom and dad whom upon learning of thier first pregnancy began researching diaper options. They were quite surprised there were only two choices, much as it had been the last 40 years or so...either cloth or disposable, and no options "inbetween". So, they invented thier own! Voila!! gdiapers, with the comfort of cloth and the conveinance of disposable! how may you ask? Well the outer layer is cloth with velcro "snaps" on the sides that attach to the back (so little hands can't undo them), there is a nylon liner that snaps into the 4 corners of the cloth diaper, and then the real key to gdiapers...a 100% biodegradable, FLUSHABLE insert! that's right folks! putting poo where it belongs..in the toilet! (I can not tell you what the thought of having no smelly trashcan sitting in my house feels like! especially since British garbage is only removed every OTHER week, Ugh!)

Both Joe and I thought about it for a few weeks and then an online friend of mine was selling her small and medium sized Gdiapers and a large lot of unused inserts for a great price and asked if i was interested! We talked about it and figured, eh? why not? If it's not for us, we can always ebay what's left lol. If we do end up liking the change (pun totally intended) we could end up "flushing" all our dirty stuff so no smelly house  or worrying of guests popping in, no worrying of buying refills for our diaper champ pail (which doesn't work anyway and the refills are nearly impossible to keep stocked at the base) as well as doing a much better part for our environment, and not to mention they are downright CUTE! Did you see that cute little red hawaiin number?! I will have to take some pics of Joey modeling some. *smiles* I would love to go into more depth about how exactly the flushable works, but babe is crying and if i don't get a start on the laundry i swear it will grow legs and eat me lol....just check out their website and videos page! it is amazing! did any of you realize that 1 disposable diaper takes over 500 years to biodegrade? i had NO IDEA! EEeeeK!

This could end up being quite a funny experiment in our house, but I am actually pretty excited! (excited about poo disposal?! what has happened to me??) we will keep you informed upon the arrival of  our gdiapers and how the experiement proceeds.
