If you use disposable pls dispose off properly otherwise use washable. I used to have neighbours who throw disposable diapers just beside there gate- very dirty folks.

Well, depending on how big the size of your husband's wallet is, and taking into account your hygiene needs and that of the baby/family/relatives/friends/neighbours then, disposable is a good option.

However, wash 'n' hang is a better option for those not trying to be like the 'Joneses'else there might be crying in Ramah when the funds runs out and, you will still 'wash'n'hang' - so what's the point?

Just wash and hang if you haven't got the money to stretch - use your brain, cut your coat according to your size and stop emulating your friends and neighbours!

Be true to yourself!

washable is the best but it involves a lot more work. and disposable stuff is never good for the environment or the pocket.

None of the above

Ileke-IdI:


.......And so do disposable diapers.

I must be lucky then. Because neither of my kids have had diaper rash. My kid sister used terry diapers, and had diaper rash, so did my nephew. And our health visitor gave us the choice of either, though she said washables (terry diapers) can cause diaper rash, as they are much more abrasive when wet.

noskeybaba: One funny thing here is that most of u here claiming disposable shi.it used washable diapers called NAPKIN!!! Should we call it hypocrisy??

Bro, you're not making much sense.

How would what a baby used influence what their babies would use? How many of us here can remember what sort of diapers we wore? Of course, anyone here over the age of 20 would most likely have used washables, or gone without.

Those that didn't wear any diapers as babies, does that mean their kids should go bare butt as a result?

Washable is more nuture bonding between baby and mother,cheap and more enviromentally friendly.And probably more comfortable for the baby.

Disposable is of the time,of the fast and wasteful age.Though convinient but with loads of consequencies.

Lets be of old,and still be innovative

Which is better for who? Disposable is more convenient b coolut is there provision to dispose of the disposablIe? I would recommend disposable if you live in a city that where there there is scheduled garbage pick ups. If not,...except if carrying the baby to clinic, church etc.....where does one store the disposable? ... toss it out in the street?... can you imagine the hmmm...odour coming from the home of the disposable with nowhere to dispose? ...am about to faint.

Re: Disposable Or Washable Diaper Which Is Better by PrettyCindy(f): 8:44am On Dec 29, 2012
Disposable diaper is very convenient but it doesn't in any way make your child's health to be safe. Napkins on the other hand are stressful to maintain but at the same time cost effective and very useful. If used well, your child's bottom will not suffer from any rash as have been implied here.
For those who want to use both (if you can't afford pampers only), you can use the napkins during the day and pampers at night for comfortability of your baby. Every mum should be able to do what is best for her and her baby. Never go out of your way to please others by going to buy pampers when you have little or nothing to eat.

Good suggestion! In addition, for those that don't have enough income, during the day you can as well leave the baby's bu.t.t. free from all the heat from hot weather. Let it breath ( I mean the bu.t.t.) just put a cloth underneath it like what we use to have in the early 20s. cheesy.....

I'm really surprised a full grown man is asking this question because you should know a disposal diaper is better, except you concerning the financial aspect of things.
