For most of us, the choice is easy when it comes to picking a diaper type; disposable is the only way to go. But for you environmentally friendly people, the cloth diaper is by far the best. You can really save a lot of wasted plastics and materials if you go with cloth. Cloth is also natural and is really great for the baby’s skin.
When you have a baby and when people ask if you need anything, tell them you need diapers and wipes. Even if you have tons of them, you can always use more. Remember that babies will use up, around 10 diapers a day, that is 300 a month, and maybe close to 1000 wipes. Buy in massive bulk if you can.
If you want my opinion, I would stick to the big brand names. They seem to have the best holding ability. But don’t take my word for it. Going with a generic brand can save you thousands of dollars over the years. But when it comes to your baby, you don’t want to skimp on quality. Having a baby will be one of the most expensive things that you will go through. Believe me that people will be asking if you need anything or if there anything that they can do to help. Don’t be bashful or too proud accept their kindness. One of the things that I have learned in my short time as a dad is, if people are willing get stuff for your baby, or do things to help you out, let them, they really want to do something nice for you.
