Part 2: User Submitted Questions

Part 2 of The Cloth Diaper Awards is here! I have been working on this for some time now and I am so excited to be offering all of you the second section of User Submitted Questions

Thanks to everyone for submitting questions!

If you submitted a question, I included it here and I have emailed you to let you know that you have a question featured on The Cloth Diaper Awards!

We still need everyone to help to spread the word, blog about us, post and repost on Twitter, talk about us on message boards and Facebook.

Counting is beginning but that doesn't mean we don't have room for more answers! Our goal is 1000 users to answer, we are not far from that 1000!

Have fun!

Part 2: User Submitted Questions

Saturday, June 12, 2010

Welcome!

When we were pregnant we did tons of research on all things baby, call it obsession or nesting, we spent hours in front of the computer reading about cloth diapering. We knew we wanted our babies in cloth but we had no idea where to start. The amount of information was overwhelming to say the least. Because of that, it took us a long time to actually get our babies into cloth diapers. Finding diapers we loved, is still an ongoing process. The best information we got was not from cloth diaper manufacturers or informative websites but from mothers and families that already used cloth diapers. From the experience of other mothers we figured out where to buy diapers, which diapers worked best on our children, how to cloth diaper on the go,overnight and how to wash them. Instead of all new mothers going through what we did, we decided to start a survey/awards system to gather all of that information in one place. Want to know what most mothers use to diaper a newborn? What laundry soap is tried and true? That is where The Cloth Diaper Awards will help!

We need you, mothers and families that cloth diaper already, to tell us what the best of the best are. We need honest information not driven by a possible free diaper or store credit. We need everything you know!

The first step is filling out the survey yourself!
Next, continue to help us make this a fanstic place full of great information by sending the survey to everyone you know!
Post on your blog about what we are doing!
Add the button to your blog!
Twitter about the Awards!
Put up Facebook messages asking your friends to fill it out!
Talk about it on message boards and chats!

We can not do this alone. We know it’s going to take a lot of work to get this to spread to everyone and we need your help. This project is bigger then just us, two moms on a mission. This survey and awards system belongs to all of you cloth diapering families!

Let us know your ideas, if we missed something in the survey, if there is a blog or store you think can help us spread the word! Most importantly have fun!
