Okay this may seem stupid but what do you do with the poo? You can't just throw it in the wash can you?

I talked to the girl down the street and she rinses in the toilet and rubs it a bit clean and throws it in the cloth diaper bin.
I am looking into gdiapers.com they are these really cool diapers, you can buy cloth inserts and disposable inserts. And its about 300 dollars for all the diapers that you would need for the baby until they are potty trained. When I get the all clear at the twelve week mark at the next pregnancy, I am going to buy them.

BUY THE TOILET SPRAYER!!!! :) It will be useful through all stages of cloth diapering!
Before that I just sort of folded them inside out and swirled them around in the toilet to knock everything off.

I had some reusuable liners that wouldn't let the poo stick to it so I just shook it over the toilet and flushed then the rest got ran through the wash. The only thing I would say is make sure you don't pack your washer and maybe run them on a slightly larger load than you would for the same weight of say t-shirts. Just to have that extra swishing motion and extra water running through the cloth.

I have heard from a few people that Bounty paper towels make great diaper liners, I wouldn't flush them though.
Forget buns of steel, I'd rather have buns of cinnamon!

We use the sprayer, Julie :) It's easy and in all honesty, after the first few go rounds, poo just doesn't bother anymore!

The easiest way is to use diaper liners. They are made from recycled paper, are relatively soft, and when you take off the diaper, you just drop the whole poo-filled liner into the toilet and flush! Yes, they are flushable, even on a septic system. Mother-Ease makes some, so does Kushies and a few other brands. They are wonderful and keep your hands out of the toilet!
Cheers,
Anastasia :)

Not a stupid question at all. In the beginning if you're breastfeeding ( I can't speak for bottle feeding but it may be the same) the poo isn't anything that can't be put in the wash because it is so thin. When it starts to solidify I would just throw it in the toilet. You can also get a sprayer that attaches to the toilet so you can rinse the diaper that way into the toilet.
