What is a baby napkin?

The invention of modern baby napkins has been credited to Marion Donovan, an American woman, who created  the first modern cloth napkins for society in the 20th century and led the first step in inventing baby napkins. Meanwhile in the ancient times, animal skins and moss became the first ever baby napkins to wrap the babies and infants from coldness, and to hold any excrement for a temporary hour. These baby napkins began as big squares of cotton or linen, which were folded over multiple times and wrapped on the baby, then the safety pins would be used to secure the folds. Later in 1946, Marion Donovan started producing the ‘’Boater’’, a reusable napkin cover made from surplus nylon cloth and using snaps instead of safety pins. In 1950, a napkin service invented the prefold napkins together with the fitted napkins. In the 1960s, disposable napkins were invented and became popular immediately in society. Around 20 years later, in 1987, Bummis invented the modern napkin cover using Velcro. In the 1990s, cloth napkins started to become a trend again among parents and babies.

The Benefits of Baby Napkins for Parents and Babies

• Safer to use

Baby napkins are made from cotton which contain no dangerous materials and hazardous chemicals. Hazardous chemicals such as chlorine, fragrance, polyacrylamide and other chemicals can interrupt good protective bacteria on the skin and even the natural skin barrier. These chemicals can change the pH balance skin of your baby. Besides that, compared to the baby napkins, the use of disposable diapers remarks an increase in asthma and respiratory problems among kids. 

• Allow for more breathability

Aforementioned baby napkins are made from cotton as a main ingredient. Cotton is known as the ingredient that helps to enhance the ability of a fabric to allow perspiration, evaporated by the body, to diffuse odour and sweat to the outside. Therefore, baby napkins cause less skin irritation and skin sensitivity. Many of the baby napkins companies use organic cotton for their products, compared to the disposable diapers. Hence, by using the baby napkins parents can prevent the baby skin from sensitive skin, dryness and irritations.

• Exposing and Leading to earlier Potty Training

It is much better to use baby napkins as this practice allows your babies and even your infants to feel a wet sensation against their skin and become more alert of their bodily feelings for earlier potty training, whereas disposable diapers absorb any excrement immediately. This situation of wearing disposable diapers keeps your babies and infants unaware of a wetness in their diapers for longer periods of time. 

• Save up Money and Protect Environment    

It is undeniable that purchasing disposable diapers costs a lot of money.  It is recommended to substitute disposable diapers with cloth baby napkins as it is more affordable, washable and produces less waste!
