I started my cloth diaper career when my oldest son, Zavien, was a year old. I was an uneducated parent using disposables, and when I become pregnant when he was 11 months, I weaned him and switched to formula. Oh the things I would have done differently with his babyhood had I only known. But thankfully my next two children were blessed with my new knowledge and have not been exposed to those sub par products.

I actually looked into cloth diapers when he turned a year because he was wetting out of his disposables at night. I don't like changing sheets normally, let alone on a daily basis, so I was pretty driven to make a change. The problem was I did not want traditional cloth diapers. Pins and plastic pants were not appealing to me at all. I had a few friends who used cloth diapers and I begun to research online. Swaddlebees, bumGenius, Happy Heinys, Fuzzi Bunz all these cute names to unknown and foreign items with pictures and descriptions. Sure I knew what the items looked like. But nothing ever seems to be what it looks like. You get this idea in your head of what you think it is. But I needed to know and like what I was getting before I invested a bunch of money. I searched for a place locally and couldn't find any store.
So I ordered four diapers from the internet and asked my friends why there wasn't a cloth diaper store. They all agreed that there should be, and Happybottous was born. I tested the four diapers that I ordered. I returned one immediately, another was used a handful of times and lived at the bottom of the drawer, and the last two are favorites to this day. I have tested almost every diaper system that I have purchased for Happybottomus so that I can talk with my customers and train my employees with my expereinces. To make sure that we know what we're talking about, and have personal experience to back up our products. So this post is about those experiences and why I choose the diapers that I use personally as well as my best sellers in the store.
More coming soon....
