cloth wipes?

talitha712

DH is on board with using cloth wipes (finally), at least for diapers just with pee.  A couple questions:

-where is a good place to get cloth wipes?  I don't sew, so making them is out of the question

-do you spray water on them?  keep them in something so they're slightly wet?  Help me out here, please

 Thanks!

-where is a good place to get cloth wipes?  I don't sew, so making them is out of the question I like the wipes I have from Monkey Snuggles.  Or, Etsy has lots.

-do you spray water on them?  keep them in something so they're slightly wet? I store them dry and wet (with a peri bottle) as needed.

I've made all my own so I am no help there.

I put them in a plastic container with water, baby wash, and baby oil.

I made my own, but you can use the cheap baby washcloths as well.

I go back and forth between a spray bottle with wipe solution or I just get it wet under the faucet before I start. It works either way.

I bought baby kicks off of Amazon. I store them dry and use a spray bottle with a baby wash/oil/water solution. I have a mini spray bottle (2 oz) for my diaper bag. I'm finding the dry method for diaper pail and wipes works really well for us.

Believe me, once you make the switch to cloth wipes you'll never look back! One cloth wipe can clean up a poo mess that would take 3 or 4 regular wipes. 

I got my wipes in a mix lot with other diapers so I don't know the brands, some are bamboo, some terry, and some flannel. I would recommend etsy though because you can find some really cute wipes at good prices.

 I wet mine with just water in an old wipes container. I found a video on youtube that shows how to fold them so they pop up just like regular wipes. It only takes a second on laundry day to stack them, and it makes DH very very happy now that I've eliminated the spray bottle step.

We just use cheapie baby wash cloths.

I keep them pre moistened in a plastic container. I've tried the peri bottle method but I just found it to be an extra step that I didn't need.

I love our bamboo velour wipes from Etsy. They're still soft after 10+months and do such a great job on poo. Since they only come natural colored they do stain (but will bleach out in the sun), but it doesn't really bother me.

I use cheapo baby washcloths (gerber and circo).  I keep them dry in an old wipes container.  I wet them with either a spray bottle or a peri bottle (however, I have recently taken back the peri bottle after my latest birth and haven't returned it yet.)

I bought 3 dozen BG cloth wipes. I make a solution out of 2 cups water, 2tsp baby shampoo, and 1tsp baby oil. I pour that into a disposable wipe contained that I kept and then I put enough wipes in to soak up all the water. I have to refill every 2.5days or so because I'm out of solution. I don't make too much because I don't want it to get a moldy smell.

Making them isn't hard at all. I cut receiving blankets into 9 squares. You could serge the edges, but mine aren't

Doesn't matter how they look, they're just cleaning sh*t. lol

I made mine, store them dry, and wet them at the sink in the bathroom.
