[QUOTE="Pink Elephant, post: 736110, member: 21572"] SOT. Still used right up until the late 80's and into the early 90's here. By the early 90's, not so much, but the 80's... [I]late 80's included[/I], cloth diaper use was still booming here, and I do mean booming. Youngest dear son is a 1993 baby, and my sister-in-law's youngest is a 1994 baby, and cloth diapers were in use in both our homes. Never gave it much thought, other than I always had it in my mind that I was going to use cloth diapers as a mom. [I]Influence[/I] is a powerful thing... as is [I]seeing is believing. [/I]When you see so many other mothers using them,[I] [/I]the thought quickly comes to mind that,[I] [/I]they must be reliable and work well. As I told one old neighbour of ours, "I wouldn't have kept turning to cloth diapers for each of my kids if they didn't work for us as a family, or failed to get the job done". I'm a firm-believer in the idea that (sometimes), what's good for mom, is good for baby, and vice-versa. Sister-in-law, Marlene, summed it up best many years ago. She said, "if I'm going to be stuck at home changing diapers for years to come, you can bet your bottom dollar I'm going to use a diaper that works for me". In other words, to heck with what's good for the environment or baby. [/QUOTE]
