In the past, CBB readers have asked us to do a post on celebrities who cloth diaper their children. With a recent boom in popularity and concerns for the environment, more celebrities are taking notice. Instead of the fold-and-pin cloth diapers many often imagine, the 'new' cloth diapers are pocket diapers, which include snaps or Velcro and allow for absorbency customization and come in a plethora of colors and print choices.
The following celebrities cloth diaper their children --
- Singer Dave Matthews -- son August Oliver, 3 weeks. Dave has also spoken out on the issue.
- Actors Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard -- daughter Ramona, 9 months -- uncle Jake Gyllenhaal has spoken about his niece's diapers.
- CSI: NY actress Anna Belknap cloth diapers her daughter, 6 months.
- Singer and actress couple Brad and Kimberly Williams-Paisley cloth diaper their son William Huckleberry, 4 months.
- Numb3rs actress Diane Farr cloth diapers her son Beckett Mancuso, 4 months.
- Actress Mariska Hargitay appeared in a Got Milk? ad with August Miklos Friedrich, now 1, when he was 6 months old -- and he wore cloth (perhaps pinned over a 'sposie).
Also, although they do not cloth diaper, the following celebs make a different choice for their babies -- they wear Seventh Generation chlorine-free diapers ($17 for 56 -- print some coupons!)
- Actors Michelle Williams and Heath Ledger -- Matilda Rose, 20 months. Matilda has been photographed with her diaper showing.
- Actor and jewelry designer couple Tobey Maguire, and Jennifer Meyer -- Ruby Sweetheart, 8 months. Ruby has also been photographed in her Seventh Generation diaper.
- Actress Julie Bowen spoke while pregnant about her plans to use them on son Oliver, now 3 months.
- Musicians Raine Maida and Chantal Kreviazuk -- sons Rowan, 3, and Lucca Jon, 2. Chantal spoke in her interview with us about why she prefers Seventh Generation.
- Actress Julia Roberts uses these on her twins -- Phinnaeus Walter and Hazel Patricia, 2 1/2. No word on what she's using on Henry Daniel, 3 weeks.
- Rocker and actress couple Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow -- Moses, 15 months, and Apple Blythe Alison, 3, was photographed wearing them before she was potty-trained.
