Washable nappies

[Guest guest]

Sorry but more explanation needed here! When you talk about pads, are they

like sanitary pads? Do they just lie on the nappy or how do they stay in

place? I assume a wrap is like a pair of waterproof pants? Or is it a tie

on cover?

Ok the pads are sold by Kooshies, they are made of a few layers of cotton sewn

together, look at bit like a panty liner but are not disposable.

The wraps are Kooshies also the wrap around the nappy and close at the front

with Velcro look just like a disposable a bit.

But what do you do if you need to do other washing? Doesn't that tie up the

washing machine all day?

I must admit I'm too lazy to bother with disposable liners - If the nappy

contents are solid enough I shake them into the toilet - I never dunk and

swish in the toilet (yuk, yuk, yuk!!) If it's too

Yes it does tie up the washing machine all day, but I only do our washing at

weekends unless something is urgent.

I never dunk the nappy in the toilet, that's the whole point in using a nappy

liner so you don't need to.
