You might be surprised to find that cloth diapers aren’t very different thanks to recent design improvements. Don’t believe me? Check

I’ve always known how beneficial cloth diapers are as I have seen it with my brother and sister when they were babies. I have never seen a rash on them. Or maybe because I was too small then also. Anyhow, cloth diapers are still the best.

Nice post. I consider cloth diapers for my baby boy, for it will not produce friction to his skin that can give his butt rashes.

My cousin is considering cloth diapers as well. I will send this blog to her.

I’m glad to see that everyone found the video useful! By the way, let’s not forget to mention the environmental impact that disposable diapers have in our communities:
> Environmental Fact: An estimated 5 million tons of plastic, paper, and untreated feces go into our landfills annually. Your kids’ disposable diapers will still be sitting in the landfill polluting the ground when they grow-up and become grandparents.
Talk about stinky diapers!

Using cloth diapers both have it’s share of pros and cons. For me, it’s good for stay-at-home moms since they can attend to their baby 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It simply doesn’t work for career moms like me.

Cloth diapers are good for the baby, for the nature and for the mums’ budget too
When using cloth diapers it is strongly recommended the use of cream to protect the baby skin from rashes. This is very important for the summer when baby skin gets irritated more easily.

Thanks for sharing the post. Ive been having hard time curing the rashes of my baby which are caused by disposable diapers.

I will definitely gonna follow these instruction while changing my baby diaper…

I’ve been using cloth diapers for 7 months, and I’ve never heard anyone suggest to use a cream to protect the baby’s skin from rashes.
If you do use a cream for diaper rash, make sure it’s diaper friendly, or use a piece of fleece between baby’s bottom and the diaper.
Normally diaper rash creams can cause cloth diapers to loose their absorbency.

I’ve always been torn between the idea of having cloth diapers vs. the newer diapers. I’ve heard a bunch of rumours that the newest diapers that have been released by major companies may cause chemical burns on the children if they’re left on for too long. (who would leave a diaper on their child long enough to get a chemical burn to begin with is beyond me). But these new cloth diapers seem to be the way to go! Thanks for the video!

I’ve used cloth diapers for the first month. I was not able to survive in using it though due to the hassles of changing now and then, bleaching, and washing them, etc. I agree that will work much better for stay at home moms.

Nice video! Thanks for sharing such an useful video for young parents like me.

What a great post, thank for that. I’ve wanted cloth nappies as I’m eco conscious, but was worried about how to actually put them on properly
