Baby Cloth Diapers

Disposable diapers were initially heralded as a major step towards freedom for mothers. However, many wise moms are returning to cloth diapers in the face of new information about the risks of disposable diapers. While disposable diapers may save some time, saving the environment from industrial chemicals (about 48 are thought to emanate from disposable diapers) is undoubtedly more important.

In addition, disposable diapers are expensive. Experts estimate that even if cloth diapers are only used for one child (they can in fact be used for two or more), they typically save parents a bare minimum of $500. After all, each disposable diaper costs about 20 cents, while washing cloth diapers costs only about three cents a diaper!

Protecting Your Child's Health
Aside from environmental and financial concerns, you may turn to cloth diapers because your child suffers from persistent diaper rash. Did you know that disposable diapers raise the incidence of diaper rash to over 60 percent, while only seven percent of babies using cloth diapers suffer from persistent diaper rash? Furthermore, baby girls who use disposable diapers are far more prone to suffering from urinary tract infections. In addition, several news outlets have suggested a possible link between increased male sterility over the past 25 years and the use of disposable diapers on boys.
