I am curious, though. Would you say that most of the children that are CDed have SAHMs?
IME, sahms are more likely to cd. But that doesn't mean wohms can't cd. It's really not as time-consuming as people think. All you need is a system that works for you, enough diapers to wash every 3 days or so, and you'll only be spending 15 minutes every third day on diaper laundry. 5 minutes to toss them in the wash, add soap, manually set the machine to do an extra rinse (unless you can program your machine to do this for you), then toss them in the dryer. An extra 10 minutes if you fold them. 30 extra seconds if you just toss them on the bedroom floor.
Of course, the wash/dry time is like over an hour, but it's not like you have to baby-sit the machines. And most daycares will do cloth no problem if you use aio's or pre-stuffed pockets. Some will try to tell you it's against the health code or whatever, but most likely they just don't know what they are talking about.
I have a friend who is a sahm, except that 3 days a week, she has to take both her kids (infant and a 2 year old) an hour away to a deaf school (the younger one is deaf). She has to wash every day because both are in diapers and her washer can't hold 2 day worth for both kids. I imagine it can get tiring and repetitive to do that every night, especially on the nights that she's just driven an hour to the school, spent 6 hours there, and driven an hour back, but she loves cloth and it's worth it to her.
I don't blame anyone for not wanting to do cloth. I think there are lots of valid reasons to decide against it. But I do think it's worth it to at least give it a shot. You may love it, you may hate it. But at least you wouldn't be left wondering, ya know? You can always resell the diapers you bought and you wouldn't be out much money.
