Hi, just wanted to say I love your book and site....
I have the next to newest version (sorry, pg brain is blanking), so you may have added to the cloth diaper section in the latest, but I have some suggestions if you didn't.
First, a great resource is www.diaperpin.com. This site has tons of reviews by parents on cloth diapers, wraps, all in one's, fitteds, cloth wipes, diaper pails, etc. Plus a great FAQ section, and a cost calendar to figure out how much money you can save using cloth. The best part is they have links to the websites that sell the diapers - from MotherEase to WAHM's.
Another great site for bargain resale diapers is www.organgestarfish.com. You can also pick them up on ebay. Another GREAT site for WAHM dipes is www.wahmall.com. This is an auction and link site for WAHM diaper makers... you can get some great deals here, too. And some diaper makers only sell their dipes here...
Also, I can't play up the cost advantage for using cloth enough, if it fits your lifestyle (no daycare, etc.). I spent $100 and got enough cloth diaper supplies to get through the first 3 months, probalby more since some of them are one-size and larger covers... and that's almost a 50% savings compared to the first 3 months using disposables purchased at Costco (best price around me for disposables).
There are other factors... environment, health, etc. The list goes on.
I know the task of explaining cloth diapers is a huge one (you don't know how many hours I've spent researching...) but I definitely think it deserves more coverage in your book (if you haven't already).
Thanks,
