You think It'd be easier to find that stuff here since we are the land of hippies.

From those who use cloth diapers, how many do you go through in a day? How long before you do a load of them? Do they smell really bad? Just any info would be appreciated.
Me dear ol' MIL told me how she used to do it. Take a corner of the used diaper, hold it in a toilet, flush. Then, just set the diapers aside until you can wash them in your regular washer (although she did have a diaper service part of the time, I believe).

I know! You'd think we'd be able to find more of that stuff here! No joking, I'm wondering if maybe Sweet Potato Pie carries them? It's a long shot but I've purchased clothes there so mebbe they have little diapers? Target in Shreveport carried cloth diapers so maybe they have them here, too.
