I'm in Centreville! I was just whining the other day that I only know 1 mama in the area who cloth diapers.

Does anyone know of a store in NoVa who sells cloth diapers live, in person?? I have friends who inquire but don't want to buy a whole bunch online just in case they hate 'em!

I know what you mean! it often feels like i'm all alone in this area when it comes to CD and all the more "natural" ways of living

[danaalex]

i'm in purcellville, and while i have the online store right now my plan is to start cloth diapering inservices in my home and if we stay here we're going to open a biz in town :) or in leesburg.

i'm working with wahms. and for diapers i plan on letting moms try on dipes here at my house, covers as well, and then either sell instock or drop ship orders from the wahms.

purcellville is the next town past leesburg, about 9 miles. we're RIGHT off route 7. :)

[MotherGoose518]

We are in King George which isn't exactly Northern VA (20 miles SE of Fredericksburg) but my DH works at Fairfax Hospital and Alexandria hospital. My OB is in Ashburn and our ped is in Woodbridge.

Just an FYI, I'm a WAHM and I have a snap press and lots of fabrics here so if there is something you guys need fixed or made or whatever just let me know and I'll be happy to help out if I can. I'm in mid-county in Prince William. One of these days maybe I'll have a diaper open house :-).

[runningmama]

Someone asked if there are any stores that sell cloth up here - I know whole foods in fairlakes and target both sell BG OS now. There is a little boutique on Pickett rd in fairfax called Baby Blossom or somehting like that and they sell fuzzy bunz. That is all I know of though. Oh, and abbyslane.com has open houses once a month in bristow showing all kinds of stuff.

[3xanyuka]

[dabearsmommy]

I am in South Riding, new to CD! I like it so far! I actually found a nanny that doesnt mind it! HOw exciting. Have to admit, just starting to "go green" so I am working my to a smaller carbon footprint!
Thumbs up to us all!
Any tips anyone has? 10 month girl CDing and I have a 4yr old boy who has had some surgery down there:blush: and sometime has little accidents at night and want to avoid using pullups

[SophieDu]

In Reston. Anyone here want to sell their used diaper?

[gymbo_mom]

what size and type of diaper are you looking for?

[samsmom]

Hi!
I'm in Centreville. Nice to see so many of us here!

I saw someone asked about real people who sell diapers in person - Stephanie at Abby's Lane in Gainesville has an online store, but she can see you in person too :)

Also - if anyone is interested, there is a Northern VA chapter of the Holistic Moms Network - not everyone in the chapter CD's, but many do. It is nice to know other CD'ers in person. The contact info is below -

[luretam]

Hiya, I'm in South Riding. And hi to Ansel's mom - fellow BW!

If anyone in the area wants to get together and compare types, I'd love it. New to CD, my first is 11 weeks and so far not too excited by our pockets. And he's gone through 3 sizes already! Anyone have an opinion on the one-sizers?I'd like to try AI1/2 or fitted with covers.

~Lureta

[calebsmommy1]

I am a native NOVA girl (Falls Church), but currently live in OK. Almost all of my family is still in NOVA :( I visit for a couple of months during the year and have often wondered the same thing about DS mamas in NOVA--good to know there are a lot!

[mommyshanti]

here in fredericksburg not south not north :giggle2:
about 1 hr from fairfax

[abagold]

Arlington. For a local store, try abbyslane.com. Free shipping and very helpful owner. She is in Bristow and offers a free cloth 101 class each month at her home and you can shop her store (her entire basement). Also there is a yahoo group for CD in DC area, I cannot post the URL b/c I do not have enough posts but you can find it on yahoo groups.

[LDSMomVA]

Hi from Springfield.

[irish_twins]

Hi!! I'm in Sterling : )

[eresh]

I'm in Gainesville.

Someone mentioned Abby's Lane. I've been to her open house in Bristow. It's mostly geared towards new moms considering doing CDing so it's really basic. If you're interested in looking over a selection of different diapers, you might email her and ask her if you can come by just for that or if you can come by right after her open house.

[irish_twins]

I've ordered from Abby's Lane online, they have a great selection!! And the shipping is free and SUPER FAST!!!!! It was almost next day, I guess becuase I'm so close. They owner is super friendly too. I didn't even realize it was nearby.

[Ashlyn's Mommy]

I am in the city of Fairfax. I have been CDing since day one in October 08. Oddly enough, my Mom was concerned about the covers not breathing enough...if she only knew. I have two gf that I influenced with CDing...one uses g Diapers and the other CDs. We are out here!

[averymybaby]

Nice to see more CD'ers around here! I started 5 years ago with my daughter and now onto my 3rd we are doing more part time these days =) We are in Falls Church at the moment but have been in Loudoun for the past few years and are going back next month.. probably Leesburg, nice to see all you Loudouners here!

[dusklove]

Im in Centreville! originally a Falls Church girl. I have been CD'ng parttime, and now im starting my sis and her toddler on it :)

[zenetanar]

Fairfax -- near the Vienna metro.

[sh0rtchica]

Originally from Fredericksburg, currently in OT Alexandria. I don't know anyone who CDs either, though I've been trying to convince my friends:)

[krispy79]

Winchester, VA close enough to nova, right down Route 7W

[daisysmn]

Not exactly NoVA, just wanted to add I'm a Va momma of two. We live in Mechanicsville, I have one in diapers now and my oldest wears FB at night, he uses the potty during the day. Excited to see lots of CDs in VA!!!

[ustasmom]

Winchester, VA close enough to nova, right down Route 7W

Hi Mama- I am in Fairfax City about 10 minutes from the Vienna metro.

[sh0rtchica]

hey mamas, so have we ever had a meet-up? i'd love to meet some fellow DSers! :goodvibes:

[CherryBaby]

Hi! I am in Manassas and new to the site and CDing. My baby is due in October and I have been sewing fitteds in preparation (I hope they fit!). Does anyone have newborn sized diaper covers they want to get rid of? I only have one newborn sized cover and 3 one size covers. I don't think the one size covers will work right away, they are just SO wide!

[WasabiMommi]

I'm in Boyce between Front Royal and Winchester.

[TwoBoysThen?]

I am from the City of Fairfax (FHS '93) but now live in DFW (long story). When I visit, about 3 times a year, I stay with family in Fairfax and/or Leesburg. I got into cloth diapering while expecting #2 this past year. Now my 2yo and 2mo both wear cloth and are quickly getting to be VERY close to the same size. #1 is a tall skinny and #2 is just big and tall but surprisingly un-pudgy. I can't wait for our FALL visit in Oct.

[Sweetpea985]

dont know if i have responded to this yet or not... were in front royal and are about to start FT CDing 2 of our 3 children when #3 gets here... if there is anyone in the area that has boyish Cds they need to sell im here!

[mommyof3monsters]

[cjsjellybean]

[waa510]

Fairfax! Put a bid in on a house in Fairfax today, hoping we get it! I moved down here from Southwest FL last week! My girls are 3 and 1...does anyone know of any playgroups in the area? I haven't had much luck finding anything so far..:headscratch: -Whitney

[gingercoffeebeans]

I have lived in DC for the past few years, but grew up in Oakton. My family still lives there, so I am visiting about 1/3 of the time :goodvibes:

[MommyScott]

Anyone on here located in Leesburg / Ashburn area of Loudoun County?? :)

[gr8fullmama]

Don't think I posted yet. I'm in Centreville, and have quite a few friends who cloth diaper including my sister! For those of you in this area, sometimes gently used cloth diapers can be found at the local consignment shop Kid to Kid. Very occationally. I've been looking lately with no luck.

Totally new to the board and only lived in No Va since October. Just learning the CD ropes before DS arrives next month. We are in Ashburn. Please tell me the weather gets better LOL We are going a little :loony:

[twins4me]

:funnypost:

Leesburg, here! I haven't purchased any cloth diapers locally - all online from different stores and on DS...

I'm laughing about your comment regarding the weather. We've been here two years and I told my Dad that we hardly ever get snow! HA! I guess I got 'schooled!'

[foureyedgirl]

I'm in South Arlington. I don't know anyone around here with kids, so if you live in the Arlington, Falls Church, Alexandria area don't hesitate to send me a message!

[chasinyourheart]

Im in Culpeper/Warrenton here!

[jelynnm]

I'm in Woodbridge. I have been looking on Craigslist for used covers/cd, but haven't seen as much as I'd like. Anyone have better luck than me?
