cloth

I have started to go back to cloth diapers. Virginia doesn't like it too much right now. They definitely feel different to her.
I was just tired of feeling sick every time we filled a trash bag full of dirty diapers. Plus, she needs to start potty training and I figured cloth will make it a bit easier for her. We will see.

My goal with the new baby is to do cloth 95% of the time. The downside to this is that it is so expensive to start out. I didn't start V in cloth until she was about 9 months old.

John has been able to feel the baby kicking. It is amazing to me that he and I can feel it so soon. With V it was 20 weeks to the day when I started feeling her kick and not for another month until John could. I started feeling this one at about 15 weeks and John at about 17. Weird!

So far the weight gain has been good. I gained 60 pounds with V and my goal for this one is 35. I think it is doable, it is just going to be hard work. So far I have only gained 11 pounds and I am at 18 weeks. I don't think that is too bad, considering.
