Cloth 101: Do not use a sanitize cycle when washing cloth diapers
November 7, 2011 2:56 am | by

Sanitize cycles on newer washing machines superheat the water within the machine. These high temperatures can cause elements of the diaper to break down. We suggest washing your diapers on a hot cycle setting for best results. If you have other brands of modern cloth diapers, we suggest you check with the manufacturer for their best laundry practices. If you ever have any questions about your laundry routine, contact us by phone at 1-314-892-1855, by e-mail at contactus@cottonbabies.com or via live chat at www.cottonbabies.com We’re always glad to assist you.

Cloth 201: What is a Stay Dry Liner?
August 1, 2011 5:04 am | by

We are often asked to clarify the differences between these three cloth diaper accessories: diaper doublers, stay dry liners and stay dry doublers. Diaper Doublers (AKA Newborn Insert): These are the smaller insert that comes with your bumGenius Original Pocket Diapers. This smaller insert is less absorbent than a standard bumGenius insert, but is ideal for newborns because it creates a trimmer fit for those early days. Once your little one needs the standard insert, these are great to add to your pockets for nap-time or overnight when extra absorbency is needed.   Keep in mind, these are only recommended for
