Reusable Nappies: How Many Modern Nappies Will I Need To Use Them Part Time With A Crawling Baby?
Kelly from Nappy Needz:
You need as many nappies as you are able to wash and dry, without running out. When only using them part time, this will mean that you need a few less, as you’ll have longer to get them washed and dry again. Around 10 nappies should be enough to begin with.
Karen from Baby Blossom:
As your baby grows, you will find you need less and less nappies per day. How many you need will still be determined by your baby and how many reusable nappies you can manage to use.
Liz from Hatchlings Cloth Nappies:
Well this is a math question really, and it depends on how heavy a wetter your baby is, how many nappies per day you want to use cloth and how many disposable, what type of cloth nappy you are buying, and how often you want to do washing.
If you want to use most of your day time nappies as cloth, and your bubs is not a super heavy wetter, your cloth nappies have a 3-ish hour absorbency level and you want to wash every second day I would recommend 8 to 12 nappies for part time use – simple, right?
Kendall from Australian Baby Supplies:
How many nappies you need will depend on how often/how much your baby wets. The number needed for part time will also depend on if you are just using them during the day or if only using them when you are at home. 12 nappies will be enough for most babies if you wash every two days. It is recommended that you wash at least every two days for your nappies to keep in great condition.
Melanie & Diana of Bodeo:
18 nappies would be enough for you to be in cloth most of the day, and be able to wash every second day.
Misty from FluffyBuns:
Part time – 12 nappies, 24 if you don’t want to wash everyday.

Enjoy and discover something new, and share with us in the comment box below. This is MCN advice from a series by the Autumn 2011 sponsors of the Green Promise Nappy Event.
Let’s see what they have to say:
The Simplest Modern Nappy: Prefolds – Trifolds? What Are Their Benefits and How Can I Use Them?
Kelly from Nappy Needz:
Everyone should have a few flat nappies in their stash, such as prefolds. They are great for boosting nappies, and as they dry quickly, make a great emergency back up nappy when all else fails. The flat nappies in my stash also get used for all sorts of non-nappy things, wiping faces, polishing rags, you name it, we’ve used a flat nappy for it.
Fiona from Darlings Downunder:
Prefolds are cheap (bamboo or hemp ones retail for about $10 each, cotton ones are much less), versatile (they can be used as inserts for pocket nappies or for boosting, and have 101 uses around the home – especially as cleaning cloths), and are a great way of increasing your stash on a budget. They come into their own for newborns who need so many changes a day, but don’t require huge absorbency.Folding prefolds can seem confusing, but it’s a lot easier than it looks! If your prefold is too long, you can just fold down the front (good for boys) or the back (poo containment!) so it fits. These are the most common ways to fold a prefold: Fold your prefold into thirds lengthways (a prefold is usually divided into 3 panels of varying thickness anyway, so you will be able to see which lines you should be folding on). The prefold become a long pad. Tuck this pad into a well fitting cover and place it on the baby. Fold the prefold as above and then fan out the back (like in this picture).Place the baby on the prefold, pulling the narrow part up between the legs. Then wrap the ‘fan’ part around the sides and secure with a Snappi – or even just hold it in place with a snug fitting cover. This is called the Angel Wing fold. The Bikini twist is popular for girls, or when the baby has chubby thighs. It works best if the prefold is rectangular in shape. Lay the prefold out flat and lie the baby down so the short back of the nappy comes just above the waist. Keeping the back flat, take the front corners of the prefold and ‘twist’ the prefold in the middle in between the baby’s legs so that the left corners in now on the right and vice versa. It should look a bit like this:Then pull the front up between the baby’s legs and secure with a Snappi.
Liz from Hatchlings Cloth Nappies:
Prefolds/trifolds are great, you can use them under a cover with a pin or snappi or tri-folded and placed inside a cover. They are comparatively inexpensive and in a lot of cases you don’t need as many different sizes as with fitted or all in one nappies. Watch out if you have a wiggly baby though, any system that is not all joined together can be a nightmare to get on!
Liz from Hatchlings Cloth Nappies:
Prefolds/Trifolds are a cheaper option initially (although some people do use them the entire time their babies are in nappies). There are many folds you can use. The simplest just requires you to fold the nappy in three and place it in a cover. My favourite was the angel fold. To do this you place the prefold flat onto the changing area and put babies bottom on it then fold over the lower edges of the prefold to meet in the middle.Finally bring the front up between the babies legs. Then bring the back of the prefold around and snappi/pin it together (See Pictures).
Melanie & Diana of Bodeo:
Prefolds are shaped like a traditional terry square, but they have an extra layer of absorbency sewn into the middle. They are easy to fold up, as you don’t need to do any complex folds to increase absorbency in the wet zone. They can be done up with a snappi/pin, or laid into a cover, using the cover to hold the prefold into place. The cover must be well fitted for this to work! Trifolds are often a 30cm x 30cm square, and are able to be folded into 3 and used as a booster. They can be stuffed into a pocket nappy, or laid into any nappy of your choice.
Misty from FluffyBuns:
Prefolds are awesome for new bubba’s, they are cheap and you can use them as inserts once bub grows out of them.Trifolds can be used in the same way however they are better for older bubs, I find them a tad bulky for new babies. They work great as night time boosters.

Starting With Reusable Nappies – Where Do You Begin When Building Your First Cloth Nappy Stash?
What MCN Style or Brand Should I Buy?
Our Nappy Experts are invited to contribute to these cooperative questions so that you get a range of informative and experienced responses about the topic. Enjoy and discover something new, and share with us in the comment box below. This is MCN advice from a series by the Autumn 2011 sponsors of the Green Promise Nappy Event.
Let’s see what they have to say about our MCN Question:
Starting With Reusable Nappies – My Friend Is Expecting Her First Baby. What Should I Buy For Her First MCN?
Kelly from Nappy Needz:
Try to go with something nice looking, trim, and easy to use. Most of all though it should be something reliable, too many people make the mistake of being put of MCN, simply because they start with something that just doesn’t work for them. Little-ducks pocket nappies are a great, basic first nappy.
Liz from Hatchlings Cloth Nappies:
There are sooooo many options here – personally I would recommend a Small Hatchlings Cloth Nappy, the small size is a great fit on new-borns and the inserts are one size so can be used as the bub grows, but I will admit to being a little biased there
Liz from Hatchlings Cloth Nappies:
If your friend is interested in using modern cloth nappies a cute first option is a Bubblebubs Just Hatched nappy otherwise you can’t really go wrong with one of Australia’s most popular brands such as an Itti Bitti or Baby Beehinds nappy. These brands also regularly have limited edition colours come out which would make a lovely gift.
Melanie & Diana of Bodeo:
Some beautiful, stretchy bamboo prefolds, along with a couple of good covers. A cover that has a gusset or two in the leg is a poo saver!
Misty from FluffyBuns:
To start with an all in one nappy is the easiest. there is no folding, soaking, no fiddling with inserts, you just put the nappy on and that is it. Start with a collection of around 12 nappies – this will be enough if you wash daily (prefolds and small fitted – such as motherease- are best for new bubs), plus a wetbag.
Jane from Little Bear Bums:
If your friend has a new baby, or is yet to give birth, I definitely recommend a sized system over OSFM (One size fits most). The OSFM nappies are fantastic but can look very bulky on a new baby, and bulk can put people off using cloth. So go for a small to start with such as the Itti Bitti D’lish range, or Baby BeeHinds Magicalls or Petite All-in-2s.

Cloth Nappy Liners – What Should I Know About The Nappy Liner?
What Materials Can a Nappy Liner Can Be Made From?
This mcn advice will help you to discover everything you need to know about making your own liners, buying cloth nappy liners, what they are made of and the benefits or cons of each. If “What if I don’t want to deal with the poop?” is a question you have asked, read on, you want to know about nappy liners!
Our Nappy Experts are invited to contribute to these cooperative questions so that you get a range of informative and experienced responses about the topic. Enjoy and discover something new, and share with us in the comment box below. This is MCN advice from a series by the Autumn 2011 sponsors of the Green Promise Nappy Event.
Let’s see what they have to say about our mcn question:
Nappy Liners – What Should I Know About Them? (What Materials Can a Nappy Liner Can Be Made From and their Benefits or Cons) “What if I don’t want to deal with the poop?”
Kelly from Nappy Needz:
Personally I prefer washable liners, simply because they can be reused time and time again. I have fleece and suede cloth liners in my stash. Flushable liners are very handy when out and about, because you can simply flush the whole thing, liner and all, down the toilet.
Fiona from Darlings Downunder:
If your baby’s poo doesn’t just shake off into the toilet, and you can’t bring yourself to scrape the poo off using an implement, you have several great options:
1. A nappy sprayer. These clever devices attach to your toilet and work like a water pistol. You hold the nappy over the toilet and spray the poo off. You can buy commercial ones, or if you are handy, can rig one up using plumbing supplies from your local hardware store. Or you can use an actual water pistol/higher pressure squirt bottle. Just beware of the splash back factor.
2. Reusable liners. These are usually made of microfleece, a polyester fabric that wicks moisture away to the absorbent layer behind it and stays dry to the touch. It is much easier to hold a liner over the toilet and do the shake rather than the whole nappy. Solid poo tends to roll right off fleece liners, making removal easy and then you just throw the liner in the bucket with your nappies. You can buy microfleece from fabric stores and cut it into the appropriate size – it doesn’t need hemming.
3. Biodegradable/flushable liners. This is the best option for real poo phobics. The whole liner, complete with poo, is tipped into the toilet and flushed away. Most flushable liners aren’t suitable for septic systems and shouldn’t be used if you have very old/damaged plumbing. Flushable liners can be made of bamboo, viscose, corn fibres, or wood pulp.
4. If your baby poos at a predictable time each day, you could try some Elimination Communication and see if you can get that poo straight into the toilet!
Remember too, that runny newborn poo doesn’t need to be removed as it will wash out fine in the machine. Liners should also be used to protect your nappies if you have to use nappy creams or lotions at any time.
Karen from Baby Blossom:
If you don’t own a nappy sprayer the next easiest method to deal with poop is flushable liners. There are many different brands to choose from. Just check they are flushable before you buy.Supermarket liners are not flushable.
Liz from Hatchlings Cloth Nappies:
For avoiding poop contact you can’t beat liners. Make sure you get flushable liners because otherwise you will still have to remove the poop from the liner before putting it in the bin. I find that liners, even flushable ones, that are poop free can go through with your nappy wash and be used again a couple of times – good for the budget, and the environment!
Melanie & Diana of Bodeo:
Nappy Liners can make dealing with poo a little easier, but at some stage or another we all have to deal with poo! Fleece liners are great, as they provide a barrier between the nappy and your baby’s bottom which is handy if applying nappy rash cream. The poo also tends to roll off these a little easier! Also, being washable and resuable means you never need dispose of anything.
Misty from FluffyBuns:
Going for a biodegradable and flushable liner is the best way to avoid poop.. This way you can just hold the nappy over the toilet and let the liner and everything fall in, there are one’s made from corn which i personally prefer. Fleece liners are my favourite as they are soft on bubs skin, they keep bub dry, and yes the poo does roll off into the toilet, then just wash with your nappies.
Jane from Little Bear Bums:
If you don’t want to deal with the poop, liners are the way to go – in particular biodegradable ones so you have no worries just removing it and flushing it! Be careful about what you put down the toilet because not all liners are as environmentally friendly as each other.

MCN Warranties and Guarantees: What You Must Know to Be a Savvy Shopper.
All Products Carry some sort of Warranty or Guarantee to Protect the Consumer as Well as the Manufacturer. Find Out What You Should Know Before Choosing Your Modern Cloth Nappies…
Our Nappy Experts are invited to contribute to these cooperative questions so that you get a range of informative and experienced responses about the topic. Enjoy and discover something new, and share with us in the comment box below. This is MCN advice from a series by the Autumn 2011 sponsors of the Green Promise Nappy Event.
Let’s see what they have to say about our MCN Question:
Warranties and Guarantees on My New MCN – What Do I Need To Know?
Kelly from Nappy Needz:
It’s worth looking for guarantees offered by companies for new MCN. Most nappies should last you for at least one baby. The fewer features that they have, snaps, elastic etc, the more likely they are to last. I have some nappies in my stash that have been used on at least five little bottoms so far.Kelly - Nappy Needz -
Karen from Baby Blossom:
Most of more well known brands come with a standard 3-6 months warranty. If you are not sure, check before you buy. Most warranties won’t cover incorrect washing or use, so read your use instructions before.
Liz from Hatchlings Cloth Nappies:
The most important thing here is that the company has a Warranty and Guarantee. The main things that put your nappies out of action are damaged closures, elastic failure, and damage to the waterproofing (delamination of the PUL etc). If your nappy suffers a catastrophic failure like those listed above you want to know your covered or you could end up very disappointed. But make sure you follow the care instructions because otherwise most Warranties or Guarantees will be void.
Kendall from Australian Baby Supplies:
Make sure you read any instructions that come with your nappies as different brands have different conditions for warranty. Generally washing with napisan or bleach, putting the outer shells into the dryer or washing in water over 60C will void your warranty.
Melanie & Diana of Bodeo:
Give your new nappies a quick once over BEFORE you wash them! Check for broken snaps, poor stitching, and that they are as you expected. If you receive a new nappy that you believe is faulty, contact the point of sale to ask what they can do, as they will generally chase up manufacturers on your behalf.
Misty from FluffyBuns:
Most brands will offer a workmanship guarantee on their nappies, ask before you purchase if they come with one and how long it is for.
Jane from Little Bear Bums:
Always check with the manufactures Warranties and Guarantees and hold onto your proof of purchase, just in case. Most nappy makers will replace or mend anything that is faulty.

Let’s see their responses to our topic: What about Cloth Wipes? How many, what size, how to store and what solution to use?
Emma from Wrap ‘Em recommends:
Lots! If you are using something like a thin facewasher then probably at least 3 dozen. If using something more luxurious and thick you would get away with less. We don’t use any solution at all, just a spray bottle with plain water in it.
Kendall from Australian Baby Supplies recommends:
20 wipes that are at least 18cm square should do. I store mine dry and just spray a solution on when needed. I’m currently using a Foamy Wipes Wash that I bought but there are a number of recipes online if you want to try and make your own.
Melissa from Little Para Pants recommends:
We started out just using face washers and warm water. After a friend asked me to make her some wipes, I started using them as well. I’ll be using bamboo/flannelette wipes for the next baby. I stock both hemp/flannelette and bamboo/flannelette wipes.
Charndra from Part Time Nappy Free recommends:
I use flannels, keep them in a basket and use warm water straight from the tap for bum washing.
Nyree from Kodomo recommends:
We’ve got about 20 small square bamboo wipes and a cheap twist top drink bottle from the supermarket full of water in the change table. 20 is far too many for a toddler but about right for a newborn.

Best Reusable Nappies – What MCN Brands are the Best to Use?
Our Nappy Experts Share What Their Own Favourite Brand of Washable Nappy is at the Moment…
With so many nappy brands available, from WAHM made in homes, to commercially produced overseas, you just know there is a nappy brand out there that is right for your baby. In fact, there are probably HEAPS of brands that would suit your baby! What nappy brand do you choose? This article asks Our Nappy Experts which brand is their favourite at the moment – it may be their own, the most popular one at their site lately, or the latest improvement on a design, even the prettiest print or softest fabric…

Let’s see what our MCN shop owners recommend: What is your favourite nappy brand right now?
Emma from Wrap ‘Em recommends:
We’ve always loved Baby BeeHinds…
Kendall from Australian Baby Supplies recommends:
The type of nappy I like constantly changes. At the moment I’m very busy so I like the Itti Bitti AIO as I don’t need to put anything together.
Melissa from Little Para Pants recommends:
Little Para Pants – I’m a little biased.
Nyree from Kodomo recommends:
Omaiki – I didn’t like OSFM nappies until I tried their AIO and now I am a total convert. They are trim, absorbent, really easy to use and also very cute, I love the logo on the bum!
Charndra from Part Time Nappy Free recommends:
I don’t sell nappies at my site, in fact help interested folks (and amenable babies) to reduce their overall use of nappies, but must say I love our Krap Katchers Night Nappy, made by Nicole. It is awesome, NEVER leaks, is pretty (it was a semi-custom made nappy) and easy to use. I stuff it with whatever is around actually… terry towelling nappies, inserts from other nappies, even flannels. It is a ‘Stuff ‘Em Silly’ nappy. Having not needed night nappies with my first son, using nappies at night with son #2, who wears an orthotic brace at nights and so wears a night nappy, exploring night time nappies is something that has become of interest to me, LOL.

Emma from Wrap ‘Em recommends:
Anything they aren’t allowed to normally have does the trick… or a toy/puzzle that’s a little bit tricky and needs them to do something
Kendall from Australian Baby Supplies recommends:
I let my son hold an item from the change table that he doesn’t usually get to touch. It could be the wipe spray bottle, a cloth wipe or anything else nearby.
Melissa from Little Para Pants recommends:
Anything that makes noise or can go in the mouth! Plus all the tips I included in this article: 6 Tips for Easier Nappy Changes.
Charndra from Part Time Nappy Free recommends:
I often do them on the move, or give bubble a full wash down in the laundry sink, with toys nearby.
Nyree from Kodomo recommends:
Songs, songs and more songs, nursery rhymes, children’s songs, pop songs, even made-up nonsense rhymes, anything to get them focused on you and not the nappy change! Amazing how any words at all can be put to the tune of Frere Jacques.
