Wonderfully trim, yet highly absorbent, Baby BeeHinds' Hemp and Organic Cotton Nappies are comfortable, quick to dry and highly absorbent. Professionally stitched, baby behind nappies are great during the day, but are also a very popular choice for use on heavy wetters and for times when the nappy will be on longer than usual. This is because Hemp is far more absorbent than cotton, therefore the baby behind nappy requires less layers, making them a trimmer option. Baby behind nappies have an elasticised waist and legs and a snap closure, with different locations for when baby grows giving the baby beehind nappy a lovely neat fit. Your baby will find the nappies comfortable and less movement restrictive than traditional terry cloth nappies.
Baby Beehinds' patented design should fit most babies from birth (approx 4kg) to toddler (approx 16kg). You will also be provided with instructions on how to adjust the nappy to different sizes and a care instructions sheet to make caring for your nappies simple! The baby behind nappy also comes with two inner cloth liners in the price, making this the most economical buy for your pocket and the environment.
No more folding, no pins, only affordable, environmentally friendly, comfortable, funky and cute hemp nappies, designed to fit from newborn to toddler.
Baby Beehinds pay extra in manufacturing costs to ensure that their products are manufactured according to the International Labour Organisation’s code of standards, which can be viewed at www.ilo.org. Made from hemp and certified organic cotton fabric. Hemp is such a great choice for the environmentally conscious parent. Not only is using cloth in general so much better for the environment, but hemp in particular, is the supreme choice for cloth fabric that rests next to your baby's skin. Hemp fabric has antibacterial and antifungal properties, which inhibits the growth of mould or mildew whilst also helping to keep baby's skin rash free, making hemp the preferred fabric for babies with sensitive skin.
Hemp also requires no chemicals to grow. Should your nappy be a hemp/organic cotton blend (such as baby beehinds Hemp Nappies!) none of the fibres of the fabric will have had exposure to herbicides, pesticides or fungicides. Hemp also requires less water to grow than cotton, so it is friendlier to our environment and less taxing on our Earth's natural resources.
Baby behinds hemp nappies will also last and last! Hemp is 10 times stronger than cotton, making it more durable, which is very important considering the constant washing, drying and wearing routine.
PREPARING YOUR BABY BEEHIND NAPPIES FOR FIRST USE
•Baby BeeHinds ™ nappies are fine to use in front and top loading washing machines.
•Wash baby behind nappies 3 times prior to first use to remove residues left behind from fabric manufacture. In the first wash, simply use half a scoop of detergent. In the second and third washes no detergent is required. Warm or hot water is best for these initial washes.
•Dry your nappies. Baby BeeHinds ™ nappies are fine to use in tumble dryers. Please use cool or warm cycle only. The hot cycle is not recommended as it will wear out your nappies quicker. Line drying is best for our environment.
CARING FOR YOUR BABY BEEHIND NAPPIES
•We recommend washing your baby behind cloth nappies every second day. We do not recommend leaving them any longer than this as doing so may be detrimental to the lifespan of your nappies.
•When baby needs a nappy change, clean baby’s bottom as per normal. If the nappy has been soiled, rinse into a bucket and then tip bucket contents down the toilet and flush. To make life easier though, we highly recommend the ‘Little Squirt’. It is a sprayer device that attaches to your toilet to enable you to spray the mess off the nappy directly into the toilet without you having to get your hands dirty.
•Nappies that have only been peed in do not need to be rinsed (unless you want to. It can be a good idea to rinse nappies though if baby is experiencing very strong teething pees as the ammonia in urine is quite a strong chemical and may degrade nappies if they are left too long in the bucket)
•Put nappy directly into a dry nappy bucket. We do not recommend regularly soaking your nappies in any solutions, particularly those that contain chlorine bleaching agents, as it will directly affect a nappy’s lifespan. However, soaking in plain water is okay if this is your preference.
•Once the bucket is full (generally every second day) simply put the baby beehind nappies into your washing machine and set your machine to do a rinse cycle. Once the rinse cycle is completed you can wash your nappies. We recommend washing in either cold or warm water. Any temperature up to 60 degrees is fine. Remember to use only half a scoop to one full scoop of detergent. Using too much detergent can lead to a build up of product on your nappies and can affect the baby beehind nappy’s absorbency and perhaps make them smelly. Never use fabric softener at any time as it will leave a residual coating on the fabric fibres.
•PUL covers are to be cared for in the same manner as your nappies.
•If line drying your nappies, to keep nappy elastic in best condition, try pegging your nappies on the line ‘horizontally’ (like you would a bedsheet) rather than ‘vertically’ (see picture below). This way, the weight of the wet nappy does not stretch the elastic whilst drying. Alternatively, drape nappies over a clothes horse instead. If tumble drying your nappies use the cool or warm setting only.
