Hi

How about 100% biodegradable baby wipes that contain no chemicals or nasties? www.beamingbaby.co.uk they offer a range of natural & organic baby products. (you maybe able to get a sample pack) I use the baby wipes..tho not for the obvious, I use them to wipe my patients feet before I start reflexology.

Hi all - new here

Have you considered a gentle sanitizer instead? I have just started using Green People's Foaming Baby Cleanser which they just brought out, and it's great. No wipes to throw away and really gentle too, as it contains lots of organic ingredients.

Hi laura,

I used old cloths with a solution of witch hazel and grapeseed oil. I just put some in a small jar to carry about with me when out and about rather than actually making pre-socked wipes.

Hi Laura

Anywhere you change your baby will have water so you

Not true unfortunately. Some don't. I'd carry around a flask of warm water with you.

You don't need anything fancy, just get some old flanners or rip up some old cloths.

Here's some info to why I don't use babywipes.... [DLMURL] http://www.theecologist.org/pages/archive_detail.asp?content_id=493 [/DLMURL]

I recently babysit for a family that used reusable baby wipes. She used small flannel squares (like face cloths) and had a recipe for sweet almond oil and chamomile essential oil. She would make up a batch and put them in [url]a wipe warmer[/url] and was good for about a week or so (depending on how many diapers we went through!). An excellent idea and such a great way to keep less stuff out of the landfills. I can hunt around for the recipe if you're interested.
