Hi,

Don't forget that unlike in the UK where non-recyclable waste (e.g. disposable nappies) ends up in landfill, the Swiss burn it and use the energy to generate electricity.

If you buy cloth nappies, you have to take into consideration the environmental impact of washing (energy use, washing detergents etc etc).

At least that is what I tell myself when putting a new Pamper on the baby.

We tried various brands early on - Pampers, Millets (Migros own) and a couple of others and found Pampers gave the best results vis-a-vis leakage, fit etc. An important consideration when baby is still on milk-only and mainly liquid comes out of the exhaust pipe.

I must re-check out the Aldi and Denner brands as last time we looked our wee one was too small for either.

Cheers,
Nick
