To Cloth Diaper or Not to Cloth Diaper

I have been back and forth on this debate over and over again. I am not sure if I wanna cloth diaper or not. I have been to classes, read articles, watched youtube videos, and connected with moms from all over to see what their experiences were with cloth diapering. However, I still haven't decided. I thought maybe I could get a few and try them out here and there before investing myself too much into cloth diapering, however I am still not sure about even investing any. I am not sure how I am gonna feel after my little guy is born and how I am even going to manage feeding him, taking care of his diapers, washing them, and all the other facets of being a mother all while keeping my home clean, taking care of my cats etc. The whole idea is a little daunting to say the least, I know I can buy a whole pile of diapers for around 200ish possibly less depending on if I use my free gift cards and whatnot to help out. However I still hesitate, what if I invest too much and don't like cloth diapering... what if my baby doesn't take to it? All these questions go around and around in my head, and my husband doesn't want to cloth diaper. He isn't a fan of it no matter how much it might save us in money and having to run out to get diapers... he doesn't want to do it and my family isn't into cloth diapering as well. I have heard constant comments from my mother and about how I won't like it, and it is too time consuming because she wanted to cloth diaper my siblings and I originally and didn't because of the time it took. Also there is the debate about if they go to daycare about whether or not the daycare would be cloth diaper friendly, the same can be said about a babysitter. So I still debate it out, so readers what did you do with your little ones if you have them or what did your parents do with you? Looking for some insight to help me figure out what I am going to do!
