Guide Review - Bummas Diaper Wipes

Bummas are a small cloth made of terry cloth that can be used to dry a baby's bottom off after you have used a diaper wipe before putting on a diaper. They are touted as being a good alternative to powders, since wetness can cause diaper rash. While I would agree that the Bummas do dry the baby's bottom, the small cloth means that it gets wet quickly. Bummas also recommends that you can use their product as a cloth baby wipe. Unfortunately, their product is too small for this purpose. While I agree that drying the baby is a great idea this product didn't wow me enough to recommend buying a special cloth just for this purpose.

Fine, but..., Member pregnancy

These terry cloth wipes worked fine if the goal was to dry off my daughter's bum after I used a wet wipe but before I added the diaper. However, I just keep coming back to does someone really need this product? Does it make a difference? I don't know. Does it add a step? Yes. Does it add more laundry? Yes. Does my six month old want to sit still that extra 2 seconds? No. I think if you have a baby who is super prone to diaper rash it would really be worth a shot at reducing that irritation.
