Help me!!

I need info on disposable diapers, for the first time in 6.5 years of parenting I think I need some.

Our dryer just just quit and the store that I could get gdiaper/ flip inserts ( the closest thing to sposies I have ever gotten) closed.

What are brands that are going to be gentler and not have fragrances? I am going to need to walk in and get some thing but have several crunchy stores so might be able to find non mainstream brands.

What are sizes like, wiggle worm is 32ish lb. She is in the large gdiaper covers bit they are almost as small as they will go.

I can't deal with trying to go dry them at a laundry mat, I will dry some at my mom's on Friday but need to get thing to work before then.

Help me

We use Seventh Generation while traveling places that I'm not going to be able to wash cloth. I've never used a regular brand (like Pampers or Luvs) but they're not too bad for temporary use. Our local big grocery stores carry them and a package is $9 maybe. They're $13 at Whole Foods so don't go someplace like that. Z is a chunky 31 lbs and wears a 4. They have weights on the package, I wouldn't know sposies sizes normally. I think it varies among brands. I have friends who use sposies more regularly and do Honest brand diapers, but you have to order them.

We've used the Target brand when we've dealt with yeast and had to use disposables for a few days. I was happy with them. No smell like Luvs. I just looked at the weight range on the packages, but I'd go up rather than down if she's close to the end of a range.

What about flats? They dry really fast.

I have flats but can't hang them really. There is a close line in back but is is turning rainy and the line itself is black in spots. We have had issues with mold in the basement.

I got some 7th generation ones, we will see how they go. I hate this.

Have you seen the octopus hangers from IKEA? I got a couple but haven't tried them yet. They don't take much space at all, and you can hang them in a bathroom. I get it- I hated using disposables when we had to for yeast too! It just felt so weird!

Target's Up & Ups were the best. If your baby is a heavy wetter at night, do get night time diapers!
