Tips for Cloth Diapering in Rainy Season

We wait eagerly for the monsoons to arrive -- for the beautiful fragrance of the mud and the lovely greenery; the views are delightful. We can never get enough of it. But with significant rains comes great responsibility. With dampness everywhere, drying cloth diapers and other clothes may seem to be an endless task. We fear cloth diapering in the rainy season, but it’s not as complicated as it looks. Here are some tips for maintaining and washing your SuperBottoms reusable cloth diapers during monsoons to keep them as good as new!

Here are some great tips for using cloth diapers successfully during the rain:

Tip 1: Use the right cloth diapers: 

Multi-size Waterproof Outers come with a 100% organic cotton Dry Feel Regular Pad, which is excellent for day and night.

Tip 2: Have a decent stash:

Multi-size Waterproof Outers come with a 100% organic cotton Dry Feel Regular Pad, which is excellent for day and night. Depending upon your child’s age and weight, you can choose which SuperBottoms diaper you want to go with – Newborn Cloth Diaper or Freesize Diaper.

Tip 3: Change frequently:

During winter and the rainy season, babies tend to pee more than usual(1). Therefore, changing frequently is an excellent and more hygienic idea. This is why we recommend having a decent stash.

Tip 4: Skincare:

Skincare is a relatively easy task when you are using cloth diapers. First, wipe the baby’s bottom with a moist cloth/ Organic cloth wet wipes and pat dry. Then, apply coconut oil before putting on a fresh diaper. There is absolutely no need to use rash creams or talcum powder. Coconut oil is the best moisturizer for babies. Finally, invest in the best reusable diapers in India, SuperBottoms Diapers, so that you do not have to worry about the skincare and rashes for your baby constantly; because of the quality of cloth diapers SuperBottoms offers, there is no compromise.

Tip 5: Wash the diapers every day:

Please don't wait for alternate days to wash cloth diapers if you don't have a sufficient stash. Cleaning them daily is better for diaper durability, especially during the rain. It’s best not to leave them damp for more extended hours so that you have enough for the next day. Washing cloth diapers in a washing machine is also better than hand washing them because machine washing gives excellent agitation to cloth diapers and diaper inserts.

Tip 6: Drying tips:

Spin dry the diaper inserts as well as the diapers. Line dry them once done. Keep it under the fan overnight, and tadaa…see the magic the next day.

Tip 7: Use homemade flats or Easy Clean Top Sheets :

Easy Clean Top Sheets is the most economical way to use cloth diapers with a limited stash. You can make them at e by cutting cotton saree or old cotton t-shirts into huge squares and pad fold them. You can use this with cover diapers and see how easy it is. Homemade flats, covers, and Easy Clean Top Sheets also dry fastest than any other diaper or diaper inserts. Fleece liners are thin sheets of fleece that give the baby a dry feel. The diapers are also easy to clean if the baby poops because most of the poop is caught on the liner, and your job of cleaning the poop becomes much more accessible.

Tip 8: Try a bit of Magic with Dry Feel Magic Dry Pads.

SuperBottoms Dry Feel Magic Dry Pads are perfectly made soakers, especially with monsoons in mind. They are compatible with SuperBottoms UNO diapers and are designed to dry in half the time it takes regular soakers to dry. These will soon become your best friend in the monsoon season.

So, isn’t cloth diapering in monsoons easier than we promised before we began this blog?
