Bamboo Baby Cloth Diapers are manufactured by Dri-line Products, in Edmonton, Alberta. I can personally ‘vouch’ for Dri-line and all of their products. I’ve been in the factory dozens, if not 100’s of times. I can tell you that Dri-line is a fair employer, staffed by Canadian workers. Workers that make a fair wage, get a 50 week maternity leave and smile as they sew (I’ve seen it). I can also tell you that many of the employees have been there for a more than a decade (all the years I’ve been going there). I particularly like Yasmine the owner, Gourmeet the snap expert and Keiko the cutter.

I’m telling you this about Dri-line, because I think it is import in these tough economic times to protect North American manufacturing jobs. To support businesses, that support thier workers, that support thier families that live in our communities.

I also have a fondness for Bamboo Baby Diapers, because I was priveledged to give my opinion and input during their design and production. I’m REALLY, REALLY good at giving my opinion … just sayin’.

It’s safe then to say that I’m thrilled that Dri-Line is going to give one of you THREE Bamboo Baby Cloth Diapers.

The only extra steps involved in using cloth diapers vs. paper diapers is in the washing of the cloth diapers. If it’s a WET diaper, just put the cloth diaper in a diaper pail or diaper bag. Done – easy peasy (it’s really much easier than those crazy diaper cocooning contraptions!) For a POOPY diaper just shake the solids into the toilet (quick and easy – no need to dunk, swirl or scrub!) and put the diaper in the diaper pail.  That wasn’t all that bad was it?

Are you aware that when you use paper diapers you are supposed to dispose of the POOP in the toilet so that the waste can be properly treated? NO kidding – human feces is NOT supposed to end up in our landfills!

Here’s the proof:

Why?

1975 The EPA warns that rainwater washing through dumps may carry viruses–which can live in compacted solid waste for up to two weeks–into underground streams, and from there into public and private water supplies. Improved sanitation during this century has made rare the diseases associated with direct contact with raw sewage: hepatitis A, shigella. salmonellosis, amebiasis, and typhoid. However, the University of Oregon Survival Center notes that outbreaks of shigella, salmonellosis and hepatitis A are now more common in hospitals and daycare centers. The World Health Organization has called for an end to the inclusion of urine and fecal matter in solid waste. (taken from: Mothering,  Jan-Feb, 2003  by Laura Schmitt)

If you are a paper diaper user, read the print on any package of paper diapers. I know that most people don’t (or won’t!) do this, however, if you do flush the POOP down the toilet after change and before putting a paper diaper in the garbage, you are using the same steps involved with changing a cloth diaper.

I know what you are thinking, not all POOP can be dumped! Many newborn babies (and older) and/or breastfed babies are notorious for having runny POOPS.  Regardless you have to clean/wipe your baby, it doesn’t matter whether they are in paper or cloth diapers. If you are cloth diapering a baby with messy POOPS, there is an extra step with cloth diapers –> either remove your disposable diaper liner and flush down the toilet  or, take that messy diaper to the toilet and SPRAY! A diaper sprayer is easy to use, inexpensive and it’s kind of FUN!

There is no need to dunk, scrape or swish a diaper in the toilet or touch ANY POOP. You’ll hold your diaper by a clean corner over the toilet and spray it clean (it really works!), then just put it into the diaper pail that you’ve placed conveniently beside the toilet. EASY!

Cloth diaper manufacturers and both off and online cloth diaper shops offer a HUGE selection of cloth diaper and cover styles.  The selection is so large many people find it a daunting task to select the perfect system for their families needs. Don’t worry, there are many cloth diaper advocates available to assist you in finding the perfect system for you and your baby.

Want an organic diaper that snaps on and off as easy as a disposable? Try the Bamboozle (Bamboo Terry Diaper). The Bamboozle is a fitted diaper that is so fantastically soft and beautiful you will fall in love with the gorgeous, silky fabric. It truly is irresistible! It’s trim fitting style means it fits nicely under most cloth diaper covers.

Is your baby a heavy wetter? Do you need to be able to adjust the absorbency of your diaper? Then you may want to choose a stuffable diaper like the BumGenius! 2.0.

Are you on a tight budget, but want a high quality cloth diaper that can be worn under any cloth diaper cover and wash up easily? Start with the best seller –> prefolds, made of 100% heavyweight cotton twill and available in unbleached/natural and white. They can easily be secured to baby using a durable and inexpensive “work horse” diaper cover – the Super Whisper Wrap.

Truly the choices are endless! We recommend explaining you and your babies needs to a cloth diaper expert and let them help you find the system for you.
