I set up Lizzie’s Real Nappies way back in 2003 after becoming conscious of how many disposable nappies I was throwing away. Babies tend to go through around 5000-6000 disposable nappies before they’re potty trained, while a set of around 20 washable nappies will do the same job. Things have moved on a long way since the old terry squares; modern nappies are now shaped like disposables with gentle elasticaion at the waist and legs, while the soft, built-in waterproofing makes them as easy to use as disposables. They come in some pretty cool designs too!
