How to spot a cloth nappy addict, 10 easy ways.....

Worried that you might be a cloth nappy addict? Or worse still; married to one?  Consult our easy guide to see if you are a cloth nappy addict.  (Thank you to some of our lovely facebook fans who have donated the photos here.)

1. Cloth nappy addicts have a HUGE stash of cloth nappies

It goes without saying that most cloth nappy addicts are going to have a lot of cloth nappies.  Far more than they will ever actually need.  Ask to see their ‘stash shots’ their bound to have some.

  

2.They have every brand of nappy you’ve ever heard of

And quite a few that you probably haven’t.  A delux-poop-a-catch-a? Never heard of it? Neither have I, but if it’s out there then your cloth nappy addict probably has one. (On layby if they don’t own it yet….)

3. They’re everyone’s go to person for cloth nappy advice

Who’s the first person you turn to with a cloth nappy question? That’s right your cloth nappy addict friend lives, sleeps and breaths cloth nappies, so who better to ask?

4. They get really sad at the thought of toilet training

No more fluffy nappies, no more cute prints or embroideries, sob.  Most parents are overjoyed at the thought of no more nappies to deal with, but not your cloth nappy addict.

5.Their first thought when finding out they’re pregnant is ‘yay, new fluff’

In really bad cases, they even consider having more children just so that they can get more cloth nappies.  Newborn nappies are really cute though.

6.Their kids don’t own pants; cloth bottoms are just too cute

Who wants to spend a fortune on lots of pretty cloth nappies, only to cover them up with clothes.  Children of cloth nappy addicts are far more likely to find themselves dressed in a cute nappy and t-shirt or singlet.

7. They have back up cloth for when their kids are sick or at daycare.

Who wants their nice nappies ruined with paint or playdough?  Or even worse still, runny tummy explosions? Best to keep a stash of cheaper cloth nappies on hand for emergencies like this.

8. They always claim that they’re not buying any more, and then do.

How many nappies is too many? Always at least one more than you’ve currently got.  Or, have currently got on order.

9. They have favourite fluff that they don’t use, but can’t bare to sell or pass on.

Some nappies are just more than poo catchers, they’re works of art.  Who would want to sell them or give them away, even if your little one doesn’t fit them anymore.

10. They like to  photograph their stash and share on line.

Because, lets face it, they all look so cute laid out together.  It’s nice to compare your stash with someone else too.
