It's been raining all week in Sydney. Not only is this causing issues for building our new house, it is proving difficult to get our nappies dry.
Today we have launched our April promotion giving parents a spare soaker set with each nappy bought. This will give you the opportunity to reuse your covers with dry inserts while the first set dry. Effectively you are getting double the nappy changes for the same cost.
Cloth nappies need to be dried thoroughly to work effectively. There are many options for drying them out, you just need to find one that works for you.
1. Lay them on a clothes horse and take any opportunities for drying time outside. A clothes horse allows you to move nappies quickly, avoiding flash rain.
2. Use a fan. A low cost option is putting their nappies under or in front of a fan. The circulation of air will help dry them out if its wet outside. This option is good in Spring/Autumn where its too warm for heaters, but may be not warm enough outside to dry thoroughly.
3. As it cools down, take advantage of heaters. Bring nappies in and place them in front of heating vents. Even in the living room where its warmer can help your nappies dry out. Baking a roast dinner? Pop your clothes horse in the warm kitchen for an hour - the point being take advantage of what you have in your home to dry your nappies.
4. Finish them off in the dryer. If you have one, use the dryer after a day of drying. Take advantage of the days sunlight, wind and heating, then get the final dryness in the dryer.
