DID YOU KNOW?


* It can take up to 500 years for a disposable          
   nappy to degrade in the lanfill?
* Most nappy rashes are a consequence of your babies reaction to the chemicals and gels in           
   disposable nappies
* A child will use between 4,000 and 6,000
   nappies between birth and potty training.

 

IMPORTANT TIPS


* Pre-wash all nappies prior to use as they get more and more absorbent during the first 2 to 5 washes.

* If you experience dampness coming through the covers, you can

   1) Add more absorbency to the nappy by folding the boosters and placing them in the area where your baby wets the most.

   2) Change your baby more often, approximately every 2 hours.

* Alternate covers between usage, this allows them to air out and if they are damp at all, it gives them time to dry.

* Aim to use approximately 5 nappies throughout the day.

* At night use one or 2 boosters, depending on what type of wetter (light or heavy) your baby is, you will have to adjust the

  absorbency depending on your baby's wetness levels.

HOW TO USE
Cloth nappies are easier to use than you think.

1) Simply choose whether you want to use a booster or not.
2) Line the nappy with a flushable liner (catches poop - which you  can then flush down the toilet).
3) Place nappy on baby by fastening the velcro tabs.
4) Place nappy cover over nappy to ensure baby clothes stay dry.

As simple as that!

HOW MANY NAPPIES?
The amount of reusable nappies you will need will depend on what you decide your washing cycle will be.
You can start with as little as one day pack, however the more nappies you have, the more cost effective and less frequent
your washing will be. So if  you are going to wash every 2 days, you need around 15 nappies.
Add another 5 nappies for a 3 day cycle.
You will need 2 to 4 covers.
