Cloth Diaper Malaysia – Natural & Eco-Friendly Living, Why Not!?

Ok, I have to admit -I am already a Cloth convert. My first experience with Cloth for Women and I am wondering, why I haven’t discovered Cloth from the very beginning!?

As referred to my previous post about Cloth Pads/Liners in Malaysia, the first brand of Cloth Pads I tried were Cloth Panty Liners from Mama Patch. I obtained them from the Fabulous Mom retail shop in Puchong. When I first saw the bunch of colourful Cloth Pads bundled up on the shelf, I wondered “What are those?” I was a little bit skeptical about using CLOTH, so I picked up 2 pieces of Cloth Liners just because I thought they were cheap enough for a try. They were priced at RM9.90 each.

Here’s my review of the Mama Patch Liners:

PROS:

• Comfortable material: What a relief after my experience of daily disposable panty liner wearing all this while! It feels like I could “breathe” and just like wearing cotton panties Also, no more glue from disposable liners sticking in between your legs (very annoying!).
• Easy to use: The snaps are very convenient and easy to put on your panties, and it looks really cute when bunched up and snapped into a “square” during storage
• Easy to wash: I just rinse it with cold water in the shower, then soak it in handsoap/mild detergent for the night. I didn’t rub too much to ensure the fabric doesn’t wear out. Then just hang to dry!
• It’s reversible: If at any time during the day you want a fresh clean layer, just snap it on the other way around, just like changing to a new one! It’s ingenious!
• No more discomforts: I used to have minor discomforts, discharge and itchiness when I used disposable liners, and once I started with cloth, they’re gone! Seriously, there were days when I didn’t manage to dry the cloth liners for use the next day and I had to use the disposables –at the end of the day the problems came back! Wow, it just shows how good using Cloth is on your body (and intimate area).

CAN BE IMPROVED:

• More colours: The liners come in solid colours only. They are still very nice and obviously not related to its main function, but still seeing cute patterns and designs can really perk up your day!
• Wear & Tear: I only have 2 liners that I rotate to use, so it is justifiable that they are fading and wearing out (fabric starts to “berbulu”) after 2 months of daily washing. (Yes, I know have to get more!) To use a higher quality material perhaps?

I can say I am a VERY pleased user of these Cloth Liners from Mama Patch. They are such a wonderful experience that it got me changing to Cloth completely. Yes, that’s right, I am not going to spend my money on disposable liners anymore! I can’t wait to get my hands on more Cloth Liners, and also venture into Cloth Pads too! I don’t remember how it was anymore to have my period because I’m in my 7^th month of pregnancy, but I will be stocking up Cloth Pads for my post-partum, Insyaallah

Well done Mama Patch!
