Plastic backed diapers are indeed better than cloth backed diapers.
I much prefer the plastic backed diapers instead of the cloth backed diapers.
I love thick diapers that crinkle and I also love the sound of the tapes when I secure them with the tapes.
Something about that taping sound makes me feel so little.
I wish they would still make the thicker pampers and thicker luvs diapers like they used too.
The diapers were soooooooo much better when they were thick and had the louder crinkle sound to them and the tapes.
If I could start up a toddler and baby diaper company I would make the diapers like Pampers used to make.
