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

Cloth Diaper Malaysia would like to introduce Featured Cloth Diaper Mom: SHEENA!

About Sheena:

Sheena is a Stay at Home Mom who is truly a Cloth Diapering addict. She considers herself as a Cloth Diaper newbie, despite exclusively Cloth Diapering her baby. She has good reasons to do so: Cloth Diapers are good for the environment, safe for her baby, very reliable for overnight diapering, economical in the long run, durable, and of course because they have very cute prints too! She feels that Cloth Diaper care like strip wash, prepping, lanolizing (for wool) and folding diapers are not  hard work, in fact she feels very satisfied with such things!

Let’s hear about her Cloth Diapering experience:

1) Where are your favorite places to buy Cloth Diapers?

I went through all the e-stores in Malaysia and I must admit each store provide good Cloth Diapers and accessories,  but my ultimate favorite for purchasing Fitted Diapers will be at everythingbabything.com store.

2) Why do you say Cloth Diapering gives you satisfaction?
It gives me full satisfaction because I know that I am doing my small part for saving mother earth. Also, the fact that Cloth Diapers are reusable and can be kept for the next baby/kid is considered a really good deal for money.

3) How is the support of your other family members about you Cloth Diapering?
Really supportive,  in fact they find Cloth Diapering to be more interesting for use compared to disposable diapers. They loved the cute prints and the durability of Cloth Diapers.

4) How many Cloth Diapers do you have in your stash, and which are your favorites?
I should have at least around 30 to 40 pieces. I love all of them because each one has its own special features!! The All-in-Two (AI2) Diapers are very trim and I can easily put them under short pants without anyone noticing them. Pocket Diapers are the ones I always reach for daily while at home, while Fitted Diapers with wool is my overnight workhorse!!

5) What were the most difficult things you had to cope with while Cloth Diapering?
The ammonia build up in the diapers and using them while traveling. Ammonia build up can cause the diapers, especially the insert to have unpleasant urine-like smell, and I need to strip wash them once a month. As for traveling, I only Cloth Diaper during night as my precious one tends to get rashes whenever she’s put on with a disposable diaper during the day.

6) What is an important Cloth Diaper care tip that you can share with us?
When washing Cloth Diapers, use only a little bit of detergent. The amount of water you use is also important. Make sure you do not add any bleach and softener. These will shorten the life span of the Cloth Diapers.
