Nappy facts

Cost Home laundered nappies could save parents around £500 on the cost of keeping a baby in nappies.

Health Disposable nappies are made of superabsorbent chemicals, paper pulp and plastics, while real nappies are mostly made of natural fabrics. Organic cotton and hemp nappies and organic wool waterproof covers are available at a reasonable cost.
