Wool diaper covers are soft, breathable, and a natural fabric for your baby. This cloth diaper has waterproof layers with a special spray-on water repellant to avoid leakage and won't result in solvents being left behind. Wool diaper covers are a natural diaper choice because wool is resistant to water, has no synthetic materials, won't cause allergies, and is anti-bacterial. Wool is a very popular and breathable choice, particularly for overnight use and sensitive skin.
• Dispelling the Myths
Wool is hot, scratchy, and messy! Not necessarily – the breathability of wool is the most distinct selling point. As wool rightfully has the reputation of being warm in the winter, it's a natural diaper choice during the summer because it's breathable. Wool has a porous structure allowing air to easily pass through; and surprisingly, it helps regulate body temperature. Wool also keeps your baby's skin dry as it absorbs around 30% of moisture weight without feeling wet and sweaty. In the case your child wets the bed during the night, the natural wool diaper cover will give necessary absorption.
• Non-Disposable
Wool diaper covers are a natural diaper choice because urine neutralizes into water and salt when it reaches the lanolin (the fatty substance extracted from wool; used in waterproof coatings.) It is likely the wool will smell of urine immediately, but it will be clean again and fresh when it dries. Natural wool covers can be line dried, worn and reused several times; and can last up to 4 weeks without needing to be washed. Wool is a naturally strong fiber that allows for elasticity, but won't stretch out after repeated wear and washings. If you plan to expand your family, the wool diaper covers can easily be stored (wrap them in the newspaper) for future use without being damaged.
• Versatility
Wool diaper covers and wraps are made to be waterproof and meant to be used with common diapers you know as fitted, pre-folds, and flats. Wraps typically have snaps or Velcro, and pull-on covers that allow for quicker diaper changes. They come in different lengths, giving you several options for your baby's outfits as they fit snuggly around the legs and waist; and offer flexibility to fit well on all babies, even over a bulky fitted diaper. The convenience of having buttons gives you elasticity for the most adaptable fit.
• Budget
Wool diaper covers are more expensive, but they offer the most desired outcome in the long run. They last longer, you don't need as many of them (recommended amount is 6-8), and you don't have to run to the store to buy diapers frequently.
Finally, wool diaper covers are a natural diaper choice as parents claim their overall benefits outweigh the cons. They hold up well, don't maintain any odor, and are naturally breathable and anti-bacterial. Wool diaper covers are great for winter and summer, as they help regulate body temperature. They provide flexibility and an adjustable fit for any size baby. Wool diaper covers get rave reviews and are touted to be the best for overnight use.
