5 Reasons Why You Should Use Cloth Wipes

If you're using cloth diapers, you've probably considered making the switch to cloth wipes, right? When we switched, we still had disposable wipes left over, and we found it was actually MORE of a hassle to use them with cloth. Don't you hate trying to pick them out of the diapers and throw them in the trash? Have you ever washed one and had a weird mess to pull out of the dryer? Maybe your baby is sensitive to their ingredients, or you're just plain tired of buying throw away wipes, but you're not quite sure if cloth wipes are right for you. Spoiler alert: yes, you should be using cloth wipes, and here's why!

Cloth wipes are soft - You are putting the softest diapers on your baby by using cloth diapers, so wipe them with buttery soft fabric too! If your baby is irritated by disposable wipes, their hiney will love cloth.
Cloth wipes are thick and sturdy - Have you ever used 10+ disposable wipes for a dirty diaper? Ever had one slip or rip leaving your hands dirtier than you'd hoped? Cloth wipes are so thick and sturdy, you'll find yourself using far fewer of them, and keeping your hands clean!
Cloth wipes are versatile - Sensitive baby? Moisten with just water. Need extra cleaning power? Try a solution like Thirsties Booty Luster, or make your own. Pre-moisten the wipes, or use a spray bottle as you go. Stack them up, use a wipes pouch...the possibilities are endless.
Cloth wipes are reusable - Seems like a no-brainer but you can wash and reuse cloth wipes over and over. There's no waste, and the more you use them, the more cost-effective they become. BONUS: If you already have a Spray Pal diaper sprayer and shield, you can clip the messiest wipe in with your diaper to easily spray clean before you toss in the wash!
Cloth wipes have so many other uses - When your baby is out of cloth diapers, you will still want to have a stack of cloth wipes handy. They are excellent nose wipers, clean little hands in a snap, and do a better job than dinky baby washcloths. You might even find yourself using them to remove your makeup because they are just that good!

So, for all the same reasons you love your baby's cloth diapers, you'll love cloth wipes! Save money, reduce waste, and keep harsh chemicals off your baby's sensitive skin. Maybe we should start talking family cloth next, am I right? ;)
