Why Cloth Diapers?Why? Why? Why?

Hari ni Mommy nak citer pasal Why I chose to start cloth diapering baby Ema...

1) Cloth-Diapered Babies Have Less Diaper Rash - why? because cloth diapers have NO Chemicals...Try this --- cut a disposable diaper in half. Pour water on half and watch what happens. There are tiny chemical crystals that turn into a spongy gel when water hits them. This is called Sodium polyacrylate, which absorbs up to 100 times its weight in water. Dioxin, which in various forms has been shown to cause cancer, birth defects, liver damage, and skin diseases, genetic damage, is a by-product of the paper-bleaching process used in manufacturing disposable diapers, and trace quantities may exist in the diapers themselves. Dioxin is listed by the EPA as the most toxic of cancer related chemicals.

2) CD is Environmental Friendly - less trash for Earth to eat...."Go Green"...

3) Early Potty Training - This has mostly to do with the fact that when a cloth diaper is wet, they can feel the wetness sensation...

4) CD is Cost Saving's best friend - this part Mommy will elaborate in the next post...it involves calculations...

5) CD are Easy to Put On and Better Cushioning for Baby's Little Bum

6) CD are More Comfortable for Our Babies - why? because cloth is softer than paper - that's the end of the story. Otherwise wouldn't we all be wearing paper underwear?

8) CD are Easy to Wash - Mommy tau...for a fact that moms new to cloth diapering shudder at the thought of cleaning soiled diapers...but no worries...with modern cloth diapers, cleaning is a breeze. Baby's poo is contained by the nappy liner which is either thrown or flushed away. Give the diaper and insert a rinse (Mommy add a squirt of hand-soap when rinsing them). You can either accumulate about a washing machine load of soiled diapers to be washed together or you can just dump the rinsed diaper with your normal laundry. Senang kan? but Mommy will elaborate more on this too later...

9) Stand Out from the Crowd! - Unique, Cute, Fashionable, and Fun....what else can U say??its all here with CLOTH DIAPER! yeahooooooooo.....besar nanti boleh jadi fashion designer mix and match here and there...
