A bum choice?

Cloth nappies or disposables? Like most parents, most of us have a strong view one way or the other.

I think there's a place for both, and it doesn't have to be a black and white choice. My circumstances over the past few years have changed, and so has my choice of nappy for my children. So as a new mum with 1 baby, it was easy to choose cloth nappies. Now I have 2 children and am working again, I have to admit to finding eco disposables easier.

So I figure the most responsible thing to do is choose the greenest disposable I reasonably can. Nature nappies have easily been my fave. They're made from biodegradable materials and 100% chlorine free. And from a practical angle, they don't leak - hurrah! Plus I can buy them on the high street (Boots, Waitrose, Sainsbury's, Tesco). If you're pregnant or have a newborn, give them a go. Find out how to get a free sample (size 1).
