And when I think about what started this whole business thing I think about our cloth nappies..
I discovered them whilst pregnant with memphis.. I wanted to use cloth but knew I lacked the dedication to use the square towelling ones, to fold them, use plastics, and pins, and the constant soaking, and smells of nappies wafting through the house.. Then I found the modern cloth nappy.. A friend had shown me peapods but at $19.95 each, and after convincing Matt that this baby wasnt going to cost us anything I knew I had to keep looking.. I trialled a few different ones, got a couple friends from my mothers group using them then decided to import them..
That was about 3 years ago now.. And cloth nappies have advanced, have changed in style and design, and can vary from under $10 up to $50.. EACH...
I must say out of everything in baby for life, they are the core of my store, and what I beleive in most.. I am proud to say that after 2 years I am still using them on memphis (though not full time) and best of all i will have them all for baby number 2...
I would love to convert everyone to using modern cloth nappies.. Their better for the environment, better for your budget and better for bubs.And honestly if I can get my husband matt to use they, they've gotta be easy and low maitenance..
Below are just some of the colours available at Baby for Life. These will fit a baby approx from 3-15kg (simply by adjusting the snaps) They come with 1 insert included all for only $9.95 each.
No soaking required, simply rinse, and place in an empty bucket then wash in machine... Easy as.
