VISITOR COMMENT
"Hi, I just want to say that I think your article on cloth nappies is brilliant, it really highlights the pros and cons of both types of nappy and answers any doubts that people might have. I chose to use cloth nappies on my baby and was a little unsure at first, but I bought them before she was born so there was no going back. I used disposables the first few weeks and was worried about moving onto cloth, but like you, my worries were over nothing.
They are so much better than disposables, and I would never use disposables now (except on holiday where it was the biggest disaster ever, my daughter's poo shot out of the disposable every time!!!). I hope your article gets through to many more mums and they decide to go for the environmentally friendly option too." Andrea Leek
