Entering the strange new world of cloth diapering, you may think we are speaking a whole other language! What in the world is a B4 or a AI2? What about a BG or a BRSB? Cloth diaperers tend to use their own short forms when discussed their diapers and using them... so I have compiled a list of some of the common cloth diapering words and abbreviations to help you figure out what they are talking about!
