How To Use Crazy Momy Cloth Diaper

Hi Momies.

Congratulations for those of you who had decided on Cloth Diapering your babies. Cloth Diapering is indeed a fun way for you to overcome the craziness of your hectic lifestyle. It is part of Natural Parenting, and Natural Parenting is The Modern Lifestyle.

For those Momies who have received the CD samples, Congrats, and hey, start diapering your baby. I put on this post in response to one of the Momies, Puan Eza who suggested that I put a step-by-step to cloth diapering your baby. Thank you for the brilliant idea, well I actually plan to put that in my real online store (which will be launched soon) but hey, meantime those first timers need help eh?

Lets do it here. I will make this as simple as possible, no pretty sentences.

1) Pre-wash both diaper pant and inserts. The inserts absorbancy gets better after the 2nd wash. So don't worry if the first time you experience leaking. Even my RM100 CD leaked too the first time using!

2) Sizing. Crazy Momy CD is a one-size CD. The 3x3 front snap buttons is meant for sizing the CD DIY. Do it according to your baby's size, and please makesure the fitting is welldone, otherwise: leaking. That's the advantage of having a Velcro Closure, like Chewy: stretch to the best.

3) Inserts. Crazy Momy CD comes with two inserts, One One-sized 3-layers, and the other is 2-layers. The one-sized is the one with the snaps button, for you to adjust the length according to the diaper size (s/m/l <---- you set it yourself, using the front snaps). Daytime: juz use the One-sized Insert. It could probably last for 3-4 hours, but it all depends on whether your baby is a heavy/light wetter. As for myself, I'm a lazy bum so I just use both the One-sized inserts plus the doubler (the thin one). It rather look bulky, but what the heck..I don't have to change it too often.

Nighttime: here it means the time your baby's gonna have his long-nap (the real sleep) <--- you know your baby's timing. Put both inserts in the pocket with the thin on top of the thick one. Makesure you fit the diaper well to your baby, coz loose fitting means: leaking, no matter what diaper you use. 4) Laundry. I know you Momies not so fond of the word Laundry. Well, if you have enough stash, then do it every 3 days. Store the dirty CDs in a dry pail (but the ones with poo, don;t you wanna wash it rightaway???). When you need to wash them, remove the inserts from the pocket, preferably rinse the inserts first before you throw them in the machine. But otherwise, do stripwashing once a month. Will tell you later about that.

But if you only have ONE <---the one or two, wash it everynight. You'd probably need extra inserts, coz the pants dry so quickly. I think that's about it. If you need more info, just google. There are wayyyyyyy so many information about cloth diaper. But if you choose to ask me (flattered), just text me or hola! READ ABOUT STRIPWASHING HERE.
