Here are some things you may not know about cloth diapering.

1. Baby Remains Dry & Rash Free

The highly absorbent inserts are made of chemical-free cotton, the best material for your baby’s skin. The top layer is a stay-dry material with moisture-wicking properties. It doesn’t let any wetness remain on your baby’s skin, reducing the chances of rashes. Each diaper can be used for several hours, even while the baby is asleep! Mommies, you can catch some extra snoozes while your baby sleeps for longer periods, dry and rash-free! Buy here

2. Easy To Use

Advanced cloth diapers are super-easy to use! They don’t require any pins, ties or fasteners. The new-born size comes with soft velcro tabs. For older babies, they come with snap buttons that baby’s busy hands can’t pry open! Buy here

With a little bit of practice, anyone can put them onto the baby quite easily – right from Grandma to the day-care aunties!

3. Washable, Reusable & Eco-Friendly

Cloth diapers are entirely washable and reusable. The washing routine is like that of other clothes, using an ordinary detergent. After rinsing off poo into the toilet with a water spray, it is just like bub’s other laundry. Washing can be done manually in a bucket, or in a washing machine.

Drying can be done on a clothesline after wringing out excess water by hand or spinning clothes in the washing machine. If you have a clothes-drying machine, you can toss the cotton inserts in as well! Change them as often as you want, because each additional wash replaces a diaper that would have gone into a landfill!

4. Money Saver

In the long term, cloth diapers cost your family 75-80% less than disposable diapers. This may seem counter-intuitive, but in fact, you can recover your investment in cloth diapers incredibly fast! Consider the following example, in which a baby uses 5 diapers per day for 3 years @g Rs. 11 per diaper. Add to this the cost of wipes and rash creams. Compare this with using just 15 Advanced cloth diapers in total, which cost Rs. 800 each and last 3 years.

Cost of disposable diapers for 3 years = 5 x 11 x 365 (days in a year) x 3 years = Rs 60,225

Cost of Advanced cloth diapers for 3 years = 15 x 800 = Rs. 12,000

This is almost an 80% saving! Even if you add the cost of laundry, which is minimal, the savings are still huge!

And when you have another baby in the family, their diapering becomes free! If you don’t, you can always resell your diapers and recover part of your investment. Mommies, with cloth diapers you can change your bub’s diaper as frequently as you want without worrying about the additional cost!

5. From Birth To Potty Training

Advanced cloth diapers can be used right from birth, right up to the time that your baby is potty-trained. There are just two sizes required – the new-born size (3-7 kg) and the free size (5-17 kg). Advanced cloth diapers can be resized with snap buttons as the baby grows and reaches his milestones! Buy here

Bonus: They are designed to be super-trim and are available in a variety of beautiful prints
