- Mabuhay! Today we are going over 3 basic folds for a newborn.
I find these folds to be super easy to do and are great for beginners!

4:27 Angel Wing Fold
6:51 Hack for better poop containment with any fold
9:20 Jelly Roll Fold
12:46 Encouragement
There are 2 other folds you can do as well. Like the newspaper fold can be helpful if the prefold is longer and you need it to fit under the cord. There's also the bikini twist fold, but I just do not like that fold lol. However, I will link some videos with the newspaper fold and bikini twist if you're interested in those!

I like when you came into the camera and reminded us mommas to give ourselves grace. Thanks for the reminder
Here I am… 3rd time 42 yr old mama, not new to cloth diapers but new to green mountain prefolds and flats and just had a MAJOR poop explosion after my 4th attempt at using my prefolds…. Honestly you being silly and coming into the frame just then made me laugh, made my day and gave me the pump I needed to be gentle on myself. I have a huge stash of these diapers and had the thought… maybe I just need to do disposables… so- years later… THANK YOU!!!!!!! ♥️🙏🏻🙌🏻🙏🏻
I just started my 3rd trimester in my first pregnancy, and am planning to cloth diaper. Your videos are so incredibly helpful to me! Thank you so much for all you do!
Please keep going with the newborn cloth videos! I can't get enough! Due 10th July with second baby 😊
I have a whole mini series planned 😊💖
Probably 5ish videos already filmed that’ll be going up within the next 6-8 weeks
@@JaysNest Can't wait!!!! 🥳👏
I echo everyone’s comments here. Your videos are extremely helpful. I plan to cloth diaper my first coming at end of June. Between your content and a few others (e.g. lainaslife) I feel really confident and supported and like I can totally do this. Thank you for these videos, I know they can be a lot of work.
My baby will be here in a few weeks. I have a few NB AIOs but lots of prefolds, flats and covers. So excited to start my cloth diaper journey but of course even more excited to finally meet my baby! He's been long awaited, I can't believe he's finally almost here.
I love watching your channel. I watch cloth diaper video and I'm not even a mom. I would like to cloth diaper when I do become a mom.
Working on becoming a mom myself.
I lost a pregnancy a few years ago and we decided then we wanted to cloth diaper due to my mom using cloth on me. We lost our baby and we still have our small stash. Been watching jaysnest and jess is bless for years now. They both have grown on me sooooo much.
They make it so easy 😊❤
Same here! I have a stash already
We're expecting our rainbow baby after our loss 6 years ago. You can collect a LOT of diapers in 6 years. We never gave up hoping, we knew we would get to hold a baby in our arms. Baby is due Nov. Hoping good hopes for yall. Be gentle with yourselves. HUGS!
I love prefolds for babies that aren't mobile yet! I have a stash of 36 GMD newborn prefolds ready for baby #2. Once we get past the constant runny poop stage I'll def be padfolding.
Nice and clear! I thought I was just going to trifold for my newborn, but we were getting too much poop on the covers. We switched to jelly roll and that worked much better! 💜 Heidi
Yaas Jelly roll is the best! Contains poop like none other
Just in time. Deciding if newborn prefolds are gonna be my choice this summer! I really want to do flats but...newborn aaagghhh! They so tiny! And yay for GMD. Love love them!
Omg when you started talking about perfection you reminded myself of me when I used to smoke 🌲 😂😂
- wife on hubby’s account
Due any day now with baby#2 .. I am so excited to dive into newborn cloth diapers again!
U had me at "Mabuhayyyy" 🫶🏽 new mama exciting in May! New subbie 💜
This is super helpful! I just bought a bunch of newborn pre folds from green mountain diapers and covers! Thanks for a great informative video! 😊💗
You made me feel so much better with your mid-fold pep talk. Thank you!
Thank you for this video series! My first baby will come any day now and half my newborn stash is prefolds, flats, and covers, so I'll have my hubby watch this video to help him out!!
My little one is 3 weeks old and we started cloth diapering at 2 weeks. It’s been oddly fun to put her in cloth and super therapeutic for me to take care of my prefolds and flats. You’ve been a huge help with my new journey so thank you!!! I’m looking forward to this gmd giveaway sometime soon lol
Giveaway will be posted on IG!
I was going to post today but now it’s late in the evening so I’ll be posting tomorrow 😊
You are my kind person 🥰 thank you for your advise and thank you for your vibes i love it! ❤
I got cloth eez flats and half flats, but this is the most helpful video I've seen about folding! I have three dozen half flats, so I think I will take one of those and fold it towards the middle on both sides to make it like a prefold and then follow the tips in this video :) Glad to hear you say that we can definitely jelly roll after it's already on baby!
I’m due with my third in a few weeks, will also be my third newborn to cloth diaper yet I’m still here watching even though I feel like I already have this down. Just like your videos!
I am still in my 1st trimester, but I am getting really into cloth diapering... First it was just to save money, and for baby's skin, but now I find them so so adorable! All the different colors!! 😍😍😍
Love this because im pregnant with twins amd have no idea what to do so i really appreciate the newborn videos
This is wonderfully helpful! Thank you soo much. Excited for my baby's arrival and ready to CD!!
2 weeks pp .. watching this crying .. thank you for your love and kindness ❤️
🙏🥹💕💕💕
Thank you for doing these videos. You are legit girl. Very helpful.❤️
Thank you! Trifold does have us going through a lot of covers, so we're going to try a few of these other options on our 3 week old.
Looking forward to your newborn series! I’m due in sept and am gonna cloth diapers from birth, this is my second child in cloth diapers :)
Im having a csection in 2 days because my baby (I have no idea if it's a girl or a boy....hubby been dreaming of a girl...so girl it is) decided to flip into the breech position. i actually recently started making pull ups and undies for my 3 year old and will be venturing in to making cloth diapers as well for this lil nugget. This tutorial is excellent. I guess ill binge watch you channel for the next two days. I just refuse to buy diapers! Id rather take myself to lunch...lol
Lol, thanks for the update. I totally clicked to see if you were expecting
😹 loving the beginning , love your energy you are funny!!
I have learned so much from you ! I started cloth diapers a month ago with my 2yo and will cloth diaper with my nb in july
Aww I love that 🥹🥰💕💕 I’m so glad I could help you along your journey
I have a question ! Would u recommend alva baby inserts … they are affordable for my budget since other brands cost alot more ! I use receiving blankets and etc but diapers seems really bulky :(
@@NancyOrtiz-fr4rq their microfiber sucks but their bamboo and hemp works well!
Diapers will look less bulky as your baby gets older, but also with receiving blankets- the size matters. Some are huge compared to others
I love your newborn videos! I’m with you, newborn diapering is my favorite ❤️ I’m hoping I’ll have another little newborn to diaper next year 🤞🏻
Ahh I’m so excited for you 💖💖 can’t wait to follow along with you once you conceive
Youre so supportive. Thank you so much!
Great video!
I love your pep talk before 6:00 😂
Thank you!! First time mom expecting in Nov and need the support. What am I even doing. LOL
You're such a tender teacher. That's so awsome. I am cloth diapering my 1 month old. It is great! However, what i noticed is that no matter how absorbent the material is, the wet cloth is still against her bum and i change her after the first poop or pee. She sleeps throughout the entire night (yeah, I'm so lucky!) So i want to avaid waking her whenever possible so i.use disposables. I made stretchy flats from cotton/polyester cloth and the entire diaper gets wet when she pees in it. Am i using the correct cloth?
What do you recommend for over night diapering?
Thank you si much for you style of vlogging. It is so beautiful how natural a teacher you are.
This is very helpful, but I am trying to imagine pulling off the volcano/snappy on my super squirmy girl when she kicks like crazy! We have the cloth set up but started with disposables because she was tiny and we were in the hospital for a week.
Hello, I liked your video and it's helpful. However, I wanted to save money. I have 3week old baby girl and if I'm gonna buy prefolds and newborn covers, I won't be able to use that long.. I wanted cloth diaper that I can use from beginning onwards as she grows up. Or i really have to buy newborn?What will you recommend?
Woot woot sponsored!!! Love Green Mountain Diapers!
🤣 I would have been so sad if you hadn’t folded it into a rectangle 🤣
Baby finds this existence uncomfortable…. Ummm I’m 31 and I felt this. Lol
Rectangles are #1 🤪😂
What’s a good baby safe soap for the cloth diapers
I have lots of flower sack towels from walmart and i did cut and stich them in half but I wanna get some newborn prefolds. I am still working on what brand is going to work best for us. I still DON'T even know all the brands that sell them or what materials they are all made of
If you are in the USA, Cloth-eez prefolds from Green Mountain Diapers are awesome!
@@ECpeesy ❤ thank you I'll check them out
Hi
Does these pre folds have a waterproof layer? If not, won’t the baby feel the wetness and if the diaper cover is on it, how will we know it’s wet or soiled? My newborn is close to one month now and I would like to try cloth diapers, but would like to know about the wetness part.
You will need a cover to go over the prefold to make it waterproof. It's a good rule of thumb to change diapers every 2-3 hours!
How do you prep prefolds
Depending on the fabric blend, wash 3-5x before using. I wash in warm/hot and dry on hot to get to to shrink to its final size.
Bamboo/cotton prefolds shrink a lot over time. It can take months but they shrink pretty badly if you use a lot of High heat regularly over long periods of time. So keep that in mind!
Do you know how I can use a prefold system a night? From newborn. Thanks 😊
I’d consider keeping around extra newborn inserts (hemp, or Cotton, or bamboo, or Sherpa)
That makes a huge difference so you can adjust the absorbency. Add 1 or 2 + inserts depending on the absorbency your babe needs.
I need these shipped to Nigeria for sale, how do I get started?
Definitely a baby boom
Another super simple idea is using old underwear if you dont have said cloths and just use a pad inside of it ....
is required the snappy?
Activate the Portuguese subtitle please! 🇧🇷🥺😅
I’ll definitely see what I can do to get the subtitles working ☺️
My Sensei taught me to sweep the leg. You taught me to swoop the leg
😂😂🙌 haha
I’m done having babies and I just got rid of my newborn stash 😭
It’s such a bitter feeling 🥺
