The birth of the baby and watching it grow and develop is a moment full of happiness. For parents, especially those who have just had children, of course, the birth of their first child is highly anticipated. Welcoming the birth of the baby, of course there are many equipment that must be prepared. Starting from beds, milk, baby food, blankets, clothes, to baby diapers. 

Basically, your little one's needs must be prepared as well as possible by prioritizing the comfort and main function of the item. One of the items that must be owned and used by babies is diapers. The use of baby diapers is usually done during the first few weeks after birth. Baby diapers can make it easier for parents to take care of their little one, especially if the little one wants to pee.

 There are 2 types of diapers that can be used, namely disposable diapers and washable cloth diapers. You can use both for your little one, but cloth diapers are much more efficient. Disposable diapers are sold at a fairly high price. Your little one certainly needs a lot of diapers, if you use disposable diapers, of course you need to prepare a large budget . On the other hand, re-washing cloth diapers is more efficient because they can be used over and over again and you can save more. In addition, re-washed cloth diapers are also environmentally friendly because they do not leave a lot of waste. You can put cloth diapers for reuse and disposable diapers or diapers for your little one. Before buying, let's take note of the 5 easy tips for choosing good re-washing diapers, okay?

Choose the Right Type of Cloth Diaper

first tip in choosing rewashed cloth diapers is that you need to determine the appropriate type of cloth diaper. There are several types of rewashed cloth diapers, namely pocket diapers, cover diapers, fitted diapers, and pull up pant diapers. Diaperscloth pocketdiapers and diaper covers have the same shape. The difference between the two cloth diapers lies in the fluid-absorbing layer they have. 

The diaper pocket has an absorbent lining that is sewn directly into the diaper holder. The advantage of this pocket diaper is that you don't need to buy additional absorbent layers. Meanwhile, the diaper cover has a separate liquid-absorbing layer. This is also quite easy for you if you want to wash diapers. You can remove the soiled liquid absorbent layer and install a new absorbent layer. 

The next type of cloth diaper is fitted diaper. These cloth diapers do not have a waterproof coating. To keep the diaper from leaking quickly, the diaper material is made in layers. The advantages of fitted diapers are that they have good absorption and are breathable. The last type of cloth diaper is the pull up pant diaper. This cloth diaper is in the form of pants which is suitable for use by babies who are active and have agile movements.

Pay attention to the health of the baby's skin

Second tip in choosing cloth diapers that you can apply is to pay attention to the health of your little one's skin. The use of washable cloth diapers and disposable diapers has a different usage time limit. Therefore, you need to change your little one's cloth diaper regularly, especially if your little one is pooped. 

You can choose a cloth diaper that is thicker or has a water-repellent coating, so that the life of the diaper can be longer and prevent skin rashes from appearing. The better the absorbency of cloth diapers, the more positive it will be for the health of your little one's skin.

Choose Cloth Diapers As Needed

After knowing the different types of cloth diapers, then you need to adjust the use of cloth diapers based on the age and activities of your little one. If your little one has started to be active, you should use a pants model cloth diaper because it is more flexible to move and doesn't come off easily. Occasionally, you can also change cloth diapers with disposable diapers. Generally, disposable diapers have better absorbency. You can use the Makuku Air Diaper instead of cloth diapers.

Choose Cloth Diaper Material 

Next tip you can try is choosing the right type of cloth diaper material. Generally, cloth diapers consist of two main layers. Namely the outer layer that is waterproof and the inner layer or liquid absorbent layer. The material used is generally polyester or microfiber which is able to absorb liquids quite well. Meanwhile, at the waist, a lighter material is usually used so that it can keep the skin dry and has better air circulation.

 Choose the Right Size The

Next tip in choosing cloth diapers, of course, you have to choose the right size. The right diaper size can make your little one feel more comfortable and free to move. Diaper size that is too big makes the diaper not function effectively. On the other hand, using cloth diapers that are too tight can trigger skin irritation and rashes. 

Sensitive baby skin is very easy to hurt if it often rubs against the diaper. Also, if you want to buy a lot of diapers at once, make sure you don't buy just one size. Because, your little one will experience growth so they may need a larger diaper size.

Those are some easy tips for choosing a re-wash cloth diaper for baby. You need to consider the cloth diaper material, diaper type, diaper size, and your little one's health. Occasionally, give a break by not using baby diapers. Give time for the baby's skin to be exposed to direct air and make sure the baby's skin is dry and clean. You can use a towel or soft cloth to dry the baby's skin. 

Occasionally, you can also replace cloth diapers with SAP diapers that have higher absorbency. You can choose MAKUKU SAP Diapers. This baby diaper uses materials that are anti-clump, super thin, maximum absorption ability with good stability, has a 3D structure, and good air circulation. In MAKUKU SAP Diapers there is no osmosis either and the capacity is maximum, so it is very suitable for use by babies because it can provide maximum comfort and function for your little one.
