  2. In Gaza, babies have no more nappies, milk, as Israeli bombing continues

    For al-Baawi to buy two packs of nappies before the war would have cost less than $10, but that is no longer the case.

    “Imagine needing $75 to $80 just for nappies,” she said. “Is this a sustainable situation?”

  3. Reuse? Compost? Dump? Solving the eco-conundrum of nappies

    #DisposableDiapers are one of the biggest factors in #plastic waste. Efforts to address the problem are popping up all over the world

    "Other efforts focus on increasing uptake of reusable nappies. These create less landfill waste but their environmental credentials are not always clear cut. Many are made out of cotton, a thirsty crop often grown with a lot of pesticides. They also require laundering, which can be water- and energy-intensive. Reusables’ footprint depends on how they are used, according to 2008 UK government analysis, which found that line-drying, washing in full loads and using them for subsequent children would make reusables a better environmental choice than disposables."

  4. When @CPH_CIC opened its food drive in 2023, we never expected so many people to need it, so much.
    Over the many months that it was open, we supplied #food, #nappies, #sanitary, and #washing items to thousands of families and individuals.

    We are very proud of the importance of such a life saving initiative.

  5. In a study by Siswanti Zuraida and a team from the University of Kitakyushu, nappies have been shredded and added to concrete mixes when building a test house. A single storey home can hold nearly 2 cubic meters of used nappies in its structure.

  6. Warning to #parents. #Pampers advertise their #nappies with "no more #poonami". I can sadly confirm that this is a lie. Our #baby just went all the way up his back and over his thighs. Leaked out of everywhere it was possible to. And it only took him 5 minutes. Aldi/Lidl > Pampers/Tesco.

  10. Each #baby will use about 7,000 nappies in their life - all of which go straight in the bin. Reusable nappies & wipes are easy to use and will save you hundreds of euros! ​

    ​Not sure? Try them before you buy via clothnappylibrary.ie. ​And second-hand nappies are available online. ​

    ​It is easy to make your own wipes too; cut up some face cloths and put them in a box with some water and oil. ​

    ​Little tip: More 'hefty' #nappies can be flushed under a toilet first! 🚼

  11. Being a parent of under five year olds is very hard. Be kind to yourself and your partner. No one is having a good time.

    Do your best to surround yourself with family.

    If you can make the effort to have a "date" without your kids at least once a week. Don't do anything too fancy, just be together and remind yourselves why you fell in love.

    Aim for once a week. You'll be very luck to achieve it, but have the goal then do not get to upset if it cannot happen. Try again next week.

    You are hopefully each others best assets.

    Baby sitters are cheaper than marriage counselors. Counselors are cheaper than lawyers.

    Get babysitting if you have to. You deserve it. Even if you need to organise swaps with other families.
