Babylove Diapers
Babylove disposable diapers are premium diapers. They are ultra Thin with velcro tags. They are as good as imported Pampers. The packs sizes are S34, M26, L22 and XL18. These are imported from Dubai. They also have all standard diaper features: like double leak guard, breatheability etc.
Diaper Machines
It all started with a simple question from one my friends - "Why dont you get into manufacturing of disposable diapers?" and for a minute, I stopped to think about it and tried to picture a diaper making machine. Then i searched in Google and the picture on the left is what a diaper machine looks like. It can be quite intimidating in size. Different machines have different capacities but on an average, they say a machine can churn out 200 diapers per minute. The average cost in India ranges between 8 to 10 Crores, as we dont make them here. We have to import them from China or other countries. Personally, I dont think it will work in Indian conditions, but i believe of late, a few brave entrepreneurs have taken the risk of manufacturing diapers in India. The simple truth is that it is still cheaper to import them from China, Thailand, Turkey etc. Even though we are the second largest population in the world, we still do not manufacture disposable diapers.

Nappy Pads vs Disposable Diapers
Nappy pads are just like sanitary napkins and are stuck on to your baby's cotton nappies.
It might take a couple of attempts to get it right. However, it does provide comfort and relief from disposable diapers to babies.
Couple of brands of nappy pads now have elastic bands (similar to disposable diapers) on the sides to stop the urine from spilling out.
Nappy pads are good for short duration changes. They are good because they do not cover the baby's bottom completely like diapers, thus leaving space for the skin to breathe.
It is good to use nappy pads, if your baby is trying to recover from a diaper rash. It is the better environmental option between the two and hosiery diapers being the best environmental option.
It also happens to be the most economical option, averaging of 3 nappy pads for the price of 1 diaper, approx depending on the brands.
But it does not replace disposable diapers. It is good to use nappy pads during summers.
Not an ideal item to use if you are going for an outing, as it doesnt stay in place all the time. If you wish for a longer sleep in the night, using a diaper for your baby would be a better option, as nappy pads can absorb at the maximum two pee's, depending on output, leading to more changes which wakes up baby and yourself and guess every one else around.
My next topic will be on a quick dry sheet.
