The number of cloth nappies you'll need for different ages can vary depending on a few factors, such as how often you plan to do laundry and your baby's individual needs. Here are some general guidelines to help you determine how many nappies you'll need:

• Newborns (0-3 months): Newborns typically require around 8-12 nappy changes per day, which means you'll need a larger stash of around 24-36 nappies.
• Infants (3-12 months): As your baby grows and their bladder capacity increases, they may need fewer nappy changes per day. You'll likely need around 20-25 nappies in your stash for this age range.
• Toddlers (12-24 months): Toddlers may need around 6-8 nappy changes per day, so a stash of around 18-24 nappies should be sufficient.

Remember, these are just general guidelines and the number of nappies you'll need can vary depending on your individual circumstances. It's always a good idea to have a few extra nappies on hand in case of emergencies or unexpected delays in laundry. Having a larger stash also means that you can rotate your nappies more frequently, which can help prolong their lifespan. It's also a good idea to have a variety of nappy types and styles in your stash to cater to different situations and preferences.

We offer a range of cloth nappies and accessories to suit different ages and needs, and our team is available to provide personalized advice on building your cloth nappy stash.

Remember, investing in a high-quality cloth nappy stash can save you money in the long run and is a great way to reduce your environmental impact.

There are many different types of cloth nappies available because every family and baby is unique. Different nappy types offer different benefits and suit different lifestyles and preferences.

For example, all-in-one nappies are easy to use and require no assembly, while pocket nappies allow you to customize absorbency to suit your baby's needs. Fitted nappies offer great containment and are great for heavy wetters, while prefolds and flats are versatile and economical options.

Different nappy types also have different environmental impacts and can vary in their level of absorbency, ease of use, and drying time. Some families prefer to use a combination of nappy types to cater to different situations and preferences.

At Bamboo Splash, we offer a wide range of nappy types and styles to suit different needs and preferences. Our team is also available to provide personalized advice and guidance on choosing the right nappy type for your family and individual needs.

Choosing the right cloth nappy for your baby can seem overwhelming with so many options available. Here are some tips to help you determine which nappy you should buy:

Consider your baby's age and size: Different nappy types are designed for different ages and sizes. Make sure you choose a nappy that fits your baby well and is appropriate for their stage of development.

Determine your absorbency needs: Some babies are heavier wetters than others, so you'll need to choose a nappy that can handle their level of wetness. Consider the type of fabric and the number of inserts or boosters included in the nappy.

Determine your lifestyle and preferences: Think about your daily routine and lifestyle when choosing a nappy. Do you need a nappy that's easy to use and quick to dry? Or do you prefer a nappy that's more customizable and offers better containment for heavy wetters?

Consider your budget: Cloth nappies can vary in price, so it's important to consider your budget when making a purchase. Keep in mind that investing in high-quality nappies can save you money in the long run by avoiding the need to constantly replace nappies.

Washing cloth nappies is easier than you might think. Here's a quick step-by-step guide to washing cloth nappies:

1. Remove any solid waste from the nappy and rinse the nappy under cold water (last mentioned is optional).
2. Store used nappies in a dry pail until you're ready to wash them.
3. Pre-wash the nappies in cold water to remove any remaining solids and prevent stains from setting in.
4. Wash the nappies in hot water with a high-quality detergent that's free of fabric softeners and fragrances.
5. Rinse the nappies thoroughly to remove any detergent residue.
6. Hang the nappies to dry in the sun or use a dryer on a low heat setting.
7. Once the nappies are dry, fold them and store them in a dry place until you're ready to use them again.

It's important to note that different nappy materials may require different washing methods, so be sure to check the care instructions for your specific nappy type. Additionally, avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the nappy and reduce its absorbency.
