a good disposable
Is such a thing really possible? I didn’t believe it until I was in Europe over the holidays. Maybe it’s because places like Denmark incinerate their trash, but the dispoables we bought there were super thin and were covered with a paper-like material, rather than plastic. (We took cloth diapers to use mostly, but kept ‘sposies around for nights and outings.)
A brand I discovered there was Nature Babycare. They make 100% chlorine-free, compostable diapers! I’ve been using them for a while now and love them. They seem to run a little small on my chubby-thighed 6-month-old, but other than that, I’m pretty happy with them. They also make awesome wipes and breast pads, also compostable.
Best of all is that diapers.com carries most of their line, and if you buy a case of four (120 diapers) and a few packs of wipes, you get free shipping. :-) I’ve calculated the price of Pampers Cruisers w/ free shipping at Amazon to $.30/diaper and these come out to $.37/diaper. Not bad for being a little greener.
