Its nice to be able to go back and forth based on what works in your world. We haven't tried Bamboo or Hemp diapers but I have friends who haven't liked them as well as organic cotton! I also really worry about the way Bamboo is grown in China, so its not our fabric of choice at this time. I know people who do EC full time, part time and only occasionally.

It is not all or nothing activity and you have a great bonding experience while you are at it. :) You can always do EC “part time” as well.
