>Bambo Nature Diapers Review & Giveaway – SEVEN winners!!

>

There’s a new diaper on the US market and I love it.  Yes, I do.  It’s a disposable, too!  Hey- even cloth diaper users may need disposables now and then- my feeling is, if I’m going to use a disposable, I want it to be as green and earth friendly as possible. 

Let me introduce you to Bambo Nature diapers.  This will be the disposable that I use or purchase in the future from now on!!  My baby had a bad rash from antibiotics she was on and we actually just finished a whole pack of the size 3 diapers.  She can stay in the size 3 at least 5 more pounds- these are generously sized for sure.  I needed to get her rash cleared and her diapers stripped so I just decided to go with these diapers for a while and make things easier for me.  VERY absorbent, very soft, and knowing the manufacturing process made me feel like I was still protecting her sensitive skin from harsh chemicals.

Bambo Nature puts both the interests of your child and the environment as our top priorities.

Bambo Nature nappies are just like ordinary disposables, but they have a much lower eco footprint. Bambo Nature nappies are both ultra-thin and ultra-absorbent with a unique layer that draws wetness away from baby’s skin, keeping baby dry and comfortable even with repeat wetting. The nappies have been designed in conjunction with parents to assure the product has a practical design and are user friendly.
Bambo Nature is available in 5 sizes to suit all ages – from birth until your child naturally achieves full continence. The Bambo Nature product line begins with Size 2 and continues with Sizes 3, 4, 4+, and 5.
For those of you that require Premie, Newborn (Size 1) and Training Pants, Abena also offers the Bambo Baby Diaper product line. Please Note: This line has been awarded the Nordic Swan Eco-Label, too! They are officially and independently certified to be environmentally friendly, just like the Bambo Nature product line. You can buy these products with the same confidence as Bambo Nature.

What we received: A package of size 3, a package of Newborn and a package of the Training pants in size 6.  Now, obviously I do not have a newborn but my kids’ godparents just had a baby and at 9.5 lbs at birth did not fit in most newborn sized diapers.  He DID fit in these.  His parents were more than happy to help me check these out, and were very pleased with both the performance and the fit, and also the ease of use to fold the diaper below the umbilical stump.  I already shared that I was happy with the 3′s, and my 5 year old was pretty happy with the training pants.  (She’s since stopped wearing training pants to bed anymore, but didn’t complain about them being uncomfortable as she has with other bigger kid nighttime pants, and thought they felt soft).  I actually was really glad to find a more gentle overnight training pant for because she’s prone to UTI’s and the less chemicals near HER sensitive parts, the better.  

I also like that these diapers are plain in color and the only designs are on the waistband- and those are neutral designs.  The elastic is in the side panels holding the tabs which may not be something parents are used to if they are used to traditional disposables but easy to get used to.  

Onto the fun part- SEVEN of my winners will be winning from this giveaway!! Thank you Bambo Nature for their generosity!! Two Grand Prize Winners will get of a Case of Diapers.  5 Runner-Ups will winof a bag of Diapers.

  5. >In the past parents were unaware of the harmful effects of various chemicals found in many baby products (like toys, most disposable diapers). Chemicals such as flame retardants, germ killers–they are all meant for the good! To the delicate developing baby these can cause some problems in the future. Now that I am a parent, I know I am not a "all natural, green, organic" fanatic—but I am desiring to give our child what is good and healthy. Even if it means making the sacrifice of convenience or spending more for something better and good.n.snaer at gmail dot com

  14. >I've always loved the convenience of disposable diapers and could not figure out why people used cloth diapers (my Mom did but we were poor so she had to). Then I started learning about chemicals inside disposable diapers and how horrible they are for the environment. I have tried to switch to cloth diapers, but I love the convenience of disposable…so this sounds like a great solution for me! rachel_demille at yahoo dot com

I feel better about the fact that they are 75% biodegradable since cloth diapers are so time consuming… I feel better about helping the environment more than regular disposable diapers. Can't wait to try these!!!jenbop5@yahoo.com

I do worry about what chemicals are put into regular disposable diapers, too. I would love my grandson to try these and see if it helps with his problems with diaper rash from time to time.janet3rdgrade@yahoo.com

  44. >I am helping to raise my sweet little grand daughter and we are an eco-friendly household. Last year we invested $4,000 into our home to make it more eco-friendly by installing new light fixtures, faucets that conserve water and purchase 3 recycling bins. The rash we put out is minimal. We recycle, reuse or donate what we no longer need.The only thing we haven't converted yet is diapering because little one goes to daycare 8 hours a day and they will not use cloth diapers…the child must be in disposable diapers and I had never heard of bamboo diapers until reading your post. We of course would love to try out a pack to see how well they work. Thank you for your write up!Ravish30 at aol dot com

  50. >I currently have three children in diapers and it may be four if my son isn't potty trained by August! I just can't commit to cloth diapers because my husband isn't on board and I don't like the idea of that much extra laundry when I already have at least a load a day. So, I love the idea of being able to use a disposable diaper that is environmentally friendly and has a "lower eco footprint". Another feature I love about this diaper is that they are generously sized. I hate that I have packages of diapers that I thought my child would fit in, but they grew out of too fast. I love to stockpile when there is a good deal, but it is hard when I don't know how long they will last.mrs.manley@gmail.com
