FAQS
Q. How are cloth diapers different from the home made langotis we have been using since years?
The home made langotis that we have used in the past are generally made of muslin squares, old sarees or dhotis. All of these options do not hold even one pee and end up wetting the baby’s clothes and the bed. They are not stay dry and will wake the baby when they pee in their sleep. Cloth diapers are stay dry from inside and waterproof from the outside which means that even when the baby pees, he will not feel the wetness, nor will the pee leak onto the baby’s clothes and the bed.
Cloth diapers are a boon because they let the baby and the mother catch the much needed sleep – without interruptions and without harming the baby’s delicate skin.
Q. From what age can we use these diapers on our baby?
You can use our cloth diapers from the day your baby is born. We have diapers in new born size that are safe for even a day old baby.
Q. Is it harmful for my baby?
No. Cuddlecare Cloth Diapers are 100 percent made of cloth that are breathable and extremely safe for your baby.
Q. How do I know when it is time to change the diaper?
The general rule of thumb is to change the baby’s diaper every 2-3 hours wen baby is awake. Babies pee more when awake so 2-3 hours is a good time. However, if you feel that baby might have pooped in the diaper, please change the diaper immediately.
How long a diaper can stay on the bum also depends on the type of diaper/insert you are using. Night time diapers can be left on the bum for longer.
Q. What do I do if I find the diaper leaking?
