DD's kids were in cloth for the most part--those expensive 'good for the planet' ones that were (still are??) all the rage 15 odd years ago.
OMG... the old wringer washing machines! I so remember!
Helped my mom with the care of baby siblings being the oldest, and remember helping her wash diapers in her wringer washing machine. Occasionally a pair of rubber pants would explode when accidentally fed into the rollers the wrong way. Boy, did they ever make a loud bang when they popped!
