In these days of "going green" everyone looks for ways in which they can "save the planet". Some who toss non-biodegradable, but handy and convenient, disposable diapers full of the most bio-degradable stuff in the world into the landfills actually cringe when doing so. Ok, so it's easy. There must be a better way. Yes, regular cloth diapers are still being sold, if you can find them. If they show up in the gift heap, they may end up being used for dusting cloths. Then bumgenius cloth diapers make their entrance, being organic and very different from other cloth diddies.
There is no folding to be done when these baby bottom coverings are used, since they are pre-formed. The fact that they are one-size-fits-all is an important fact as well. Special snaps are embedded in the cloth and as your infant grows, so can the diaper. Just adjust them to fit. Possible the genius part of these absorbent cloths is that they use Velcro as closures, not sticky tabs as on disposables or safety pins as in normal foldable cloth coverings.
The six layers of moisture-absorbing organic cotton lays snugly against babies bum comfortably. The outer layer is waterproof, so safe for at-home usage as well as on the go. If one is out and about, a carry bag for wet items to be carried home and laundered is important, for both sanitary and aesthetic reasons. No one wants to pack around a smelly diddie and if kept in the same bag as the clean ones, all will become wet ones. Common sense may make this comment totally unnecessary, but there are some new mommies who may learn the hard way if not informed.
The construction of these diapers is such that they have waterproof outside and 100% cotton absorbent inside. Soft elastic legs keeps all in that needs to be in and yet comfy for the baby's tender skin.
Laundering them makes them even softer and can be done hot water with mild detergents. They are line dried, not thrown into the dryer so having an abundant supply may be smart. These things are environmentally friendly on so many levels.
The organic cotton these things are made of is grown especially for this use, in some cases, growers being careful to use only organic pest removal methods and also fertilizer that comes from natural sources. Growers of organic cotton focus on maintaining and creating a naturally fertile soil. There are guidelines for doing this and they are very strict.
It has been seen upon using a search engine on the internet many comments about repairing these diapers rather than throwing them out when they become worn and the Velcro weary of use. It is a simple thing to do although maybe not easy at first. Taking off the worn-out Velcro is possibly the most tedious thing about repairing them but re-sewing the new sticky tabs is not a bad process. You work out your own method as you become more familiar with the process.
This kind of cloth diaper comes in a variety of colors, as well as pre-owned bundles which can be lower in price. They don't wear out easily so sending them on a second round of duty is a definite possibility.
