Need to get your job done? Just put
down that seat on the commode or squat and pretend to be one of the renaissance
figures and flush it bye. But things aren’t that simple with babies. They need an
experienced mother or 4 of the inexperienced daddies to get a clean and dry bottomed
baby after a poop session, which is inconvenient at times. That’s where nappies
come to your rescue.
How are the conventional nappies a
threat?
They are a kind of infant underwear
that absorbs the urine and faeces and help to keep the baby’s bottoms dry. Though
they work pretty well, their effects on the environmental damage are time and
again the cause of debates. The content of the nappies includes plastic polymer
on the interior that packs beads of a super-absorbent material called sodium
polyacrylate. They retain liquid of mass far more than of their own.
These materials, with the fact that
they are for single-use, lay astray in and around trash bins and are unbelievably
hazardous to the environment. Stray animals and even aquatic life are affected
when these are ingested unintentionally by them. These materials are also said
to react to different elements in our nature and hence at constant risk of peril
to man.
Benefits of reusable nappies
Different companies have come up with
alternatives to curb this problem and help save our earth from those toxic
materials by making best
reusable nappies made of cotton and other fabrics that are easy to
wash. Cotton, being the most absorbent among fabrics, helps best in the
production of reusable nappies that helps in absorbing the baby’s waste
and retains them for quite some time until it can be changed.
Layers of fabrics used in reusable
nappies efficiently soak up the wastes. It is easily washable with detergents
and dries fast, just like our clothes. Also, cotton being a skin-friendly fabric,
reduces the chances of skin rashes on your baby’ a skin. Next time you go nappy
shopping, choose best reusable nappies over what you have been
using and help make the earth a bit more greener.
