From parents of newborn children to parents of toddlers who are yet to be potty trained, one of the biggest number crunching happens when it comes to shopping for diapers! Unfortunately, diapers are not just their biggest baby-related expenditure, but also their biggest contribution against nature, thanks to all those plastics used in them.
In addition to highly advanced technology, disposable diapers use synthetic polymers, adhesives, dyes, and even fragrances to keep the baby smelling fresh. They may seem to be the “convenient” choice, but you may have to evaluate whether they are the right choice for both your baby and the environment. Have you ever thought about how much carbon footprint is left behind manufacturing those diapers filled with chemicals? Where do all those diapers you discard so casually, end up?
If you are conscious about not just what disposable diapers do to nature but also to that beautiful soft baby skin, cloth diapers are what you need! SuperBottoms could be just the right fit for your needs.

Tip: When you hang out the diaper covers to dry under the sunlight or just to dry out naturally, ensure you do not use a clothespin in the center of the cover to secure it to the clothesline. You can use the snap closure buttons to secure it to the line. The teeth of the clothespin might eat into the liner over a period of time, thus spoiling the leak-proof layer.
