Cloth Wipe Trials

I know I have blogged about cloth diapers before but I don't think I mentioned that we also use cloth wipes. I have NEVER been a fan of commercial wipes. I don't care if they claim to be sensitive, they contain chemicals and I didn't want to use them of my daughter's most sensitive areas. I think it is a huge waste of money to buy wipes. I understand they are convenient for when people are out of the house but to use such a convenience item when I am home all day seems silly.


I was told at the hospital and by my first pediatrician to use wash cloths and gentle baby wash instead. So although I have used commercial wipes here and there I am huge supporter of cloth wipes. I have to wash my cloth diapers so I just throw my wipes in too. It also takes me about two cloth wipes to clean what would take about five commercial wipes. I also love how I can pat E's bum dry with a wipe and re diaper without worrying about diaper rash.

I love them. My husband does not. He felt the wipes I purchased were not soft enough. He is a man who loves commercial baby wipes. It is a good thing I am in charge of the diapering decisions in this house.

Here are the Kissaluvs Baby Wipes I have been using. I purchased them from Cotton Babies.


Recently I won a set of cloth wipes from 5MinutesForGoingGreen. They are Bummas wipes and although i haven't used them yet- they seem awesome. However, i will report back after using them. You can check them out at the Bummas site.

I currently use California Baby wash with the wipes. However, there are tons of DIY wipe solutions online. Personally, I would love to get my hands on some Baby Wipe Juice!!
