Newborn & Freesize UNO cloth diapers – Once your baby starts to have a regular bowel movement and the frequency between each pee and poop increases, it is time to move them to the best cloth diapers in India – SuperBottoms UNO. These diapers can fit from 7 KG to 17 KG, making them the perfect diapering partner to last your baby through the complete cloth diapering journey.

3. Padded Underwear – Once your baby shows signs of readiness for potty training, it is time to let them be diaper-free and start with padded underwear. It has a semi-waterproof outer layer that does not allow the clothes, bed soil, or get wet. It can easily absorb one pee and let your baby feel the dampness, making it easier for them to identify the bodily cues to use the bathroom. This helps them get potty trained faster and independently.

The Perfect Wash Routine

 Pre-wash: Give your diapers a quick rinse to get rid of any poop or pee.
• Main wash: Use hot water and a gentle, fragrance-free detergent. Skip the fabric softeners and bleach, as they are unsuitable for your cloth diapers.
• Extra rinse: Add an extra rinse cycle to ensure all the detergent is gone.
• Drying: Tumble dry your diapers on low heat or hang them to dry. Please do not overdo it with the heat. It can damage the reusable cloth diapers & reduce their life.
• Stripping (If needed): If your diapers smell funky, you can strip them to remove buildup. Use a stripping solution or follow a specific stripping method.

FAQs

Q1 – Which diapers are more environmentally friendly – cloth diapers or disposable diapers?

Ans – Cloth diapers are more environmentally friendly than disposable diapers because they are made from renewable resources, can be reused multiple times, and are biodegradable. Disposable diapers, on the other hand, are made from non-renewable resources, take hundreds of years to decompose, and contribute to landfill waste and microplastic pollution.

Q2 – Are cloth diapers more cost-effective than disposable diapers?

Ans – In the long run, cloth diapers are more cost-effective than disposable diapers. While the initial investment in cloth diapers is higher, they can be reused hundreds of times, significantly reducing the cost per diaper change. Disposable diapers, however, are a recurring expense that adds up over time. With modern cloth diapers such as SuperBottoms UNO, you only need 16 diapers for your child's entire cloth diapering journey.

Q3 – Can cloth diapers lead to diaper rash in babies?

Ans – If proper washing routine & change routine are maintained, there are barely any chances of cloth diapers leading to skin rash or diaper rash for your baby.
