Why Reusable Cloth Diapers?
I got interested in reusable cloth diapering after reading about the economical and environmental benefits. I just couldn’t see myself spending so much money on disposable diapers (this article estimates up to $1,500 a year per child) when I found out that there is a more valuable alternative that’s also eco-friendly. To date, I’ve spent just under $300 for my baby’s cloth diaper stash. Compare that to spending some $20-$30 per packet of diapers every 2 weeks!
Cloth diapers may require a bit up-front investment, but once you have a decent collection, they’ll last your kiddo till they’re potty trained. You can then keep them for your next baby (so that’s one set of diapers for multiple kids!), or bless them to another mama who’s keen on cloth diapering. You’ll be contributing significantly less waste if you think about the number of diapers one child goes through each day! Cloth diapered kiddos are also less likely to develop diaper rash since a lot of cloth diaper interiors are made of natural fibres like cotton, hemp and bamboo, as opposed to chemical-laden disposable diapers which may irritate sensitive skin.
