Mother Nature Nappy

Cloth Nappy Features

• Adjusts to fit from birth to potty training and any size in-between.
• Elasticized waist and legs give a snug and leak-proof fit.
• Plastic poppers are used to fasten the nappy. These snap on easily and are very strong and durable.
• Made from 100% natural bamboo-Cotton towelling which is not only more eco-friendly to manufacture but it is 4 times more absorbent than Cotton.

Directions for Use

1. Place the Nature Nappy on top of the Rainbow Cover with the T-side upwards.
2. Place a nappy liner flat on top of the inner absorbing bamboo pad (Bio-Degradable Flushable Liner or a Fleece Nappy Liner).
3. Place under your baby and fasten with the popper on the Nature Nappy, then adjust the velcro straps on the Rainbow Cover.
4. FOR NEWBORNS: to about 7kgs, to reduce the size of the nappy, tuck the inner flap/pad under itself. Fold the front panel of the Nature Nappy down (outwards) and then use the bottom row of poppers to fasten.
5. Check that the cover fits snug and tuck away the liner and nature nappy all the way around in order to prevent leaks.

Tips

• Use either a Bio-Degradable Flushable Liner or a Nappy Fleece Liner inside the nappy. The liners allow urine to pass through thus keeping delicate bottoms drier for longer as well as protecting the nappy from becoming heavily soiled. The solids are then disposed by flushing down the toilet, either with the bio liner or by shaking off the solids then putting the liner in the bin.
• Use a Booster Pad for extra absorbency for example at night.
• Separate Nappy and Cover Design:  Either a Mother Nature Day/Night Nappy Cover or Fleece Cover is worn over the nappy to keep baby dry.
• Wash the Nature Nappy once before use to increase the absorbency.
• Change your baby's nappy on average 5 times per day or whenever you are aware they are wet.
• Do not leave the wet nappy as this will cause skin irritation from prolonged exposure to the uric acid in urine and faeces.
• We recommend the Mother & Baby Barrier Balm for effective prevention of nappy rash.

Washing Instructions

• Wash the nappies once before use to increase the absorbency.
• Once used, keep wet nappies in a dry, lidded bucket until washed.
• Rinse off all solid matter very well.
• Place rinsed nappy in the dry bucket.
• Only pre-soak badly soiled nappies in non-chlorine based products. Try 5 drops of Tea Tree Essential Oil to a bucket of water as a soak solution or a tablespoon of ordinary Sodium bicarbonate.
• During periods of frequent soiling (e.g. weaning phase) it is suggested that you use a 2-bucket system, one for soaking soiled nappies and the other being a dry bucket for wet only nappies.
• Fasten the Velcro tabs before washing to prevent lint build-up.
• Do not use softener as this reduces the absorbency of the nappies.
• ALWAYS ensure that the washing powder/cleaning agents used are safe on your baby's skin to avoid irritations. We recommend the Orange-Bio-Detergent-p-1863.html" target="_blank"> Triple Orange Bio-Detergent.
• Wash nappies at 50 - 60 °c. Consistent hot washing and high tumble-drying causes hardness and some shrinkage.

Drying Tips

• Line dry and/or tumble-dry on low.
• In winter use a local laundrette for drying only as this is often cheaper than wash & dry.
• Try a second spin cycle to squeeze out the excess water.
• Do not iron or dry-clean (nappies or covers).
