When most people think of cloth pampers, they think of a large cloth that you put on with pins. And may be a pamper
So, many people still go that course, and that’s very good .But that is not what I am talking about.
I am discussing about the new academy of cloth diaper. New stuff, good absorbent pads, easy to put on and take off, simple to clean in your own washing matien and dryer.
These pampers are great. And they’re way better than removable. Here is why.
Cloth pampers are cheaper
Whereas twenty of the most expensive cloth pampers will set you back less than-. Factor in detergent and water bills, and you’re still looking at half the cost of disposables.
Cloth diapers are way better for the environment
An average child will go through anywhere from four to eight thousand diapers in his or her life.
Nationwide, parents in the USA use an estimated 27.4 billion disposable diapers each year. That’s around 3.4 million tons of diapers that end up in landfills each year.
Now think about all the trees that are used to make the pampers. And all the plastic, which is made from petroleum. All the chemicals used in the process. And the water. Then all that water and chemicals returning to the environment as waste. Then the plastic packaging, the transportation – airplanes and trucks carting those diapers around the world – not to mention the energy you use driving to the store and back. And then the energy used to produce your garbage bags, the trucks to haul that trash to the landfills, the equipment used to manage the landfill.Compare that to using the same twenty cloth diapers over and over, cleaning them with safe detergent in a high efficiency washer. There’s just no contest.
Cloth pampers are more absorbent
I speak here from experience. With a cloth diaper, I don’t have to change my baby in the middle of the night. With disposables, I do.
Then there’s the blowout factor. Cloth diapers are generous, and they contain. Disposables, not so much.
