Cost, cleanliness, convenience and health are among the reasons why a mother chooses a particular diaper. Cloth nappies specially are available in various types now. Some will or will not need you to add some covers or inserts. Let's take a look at a few styles.

## All in Ones or All in Twos

An *All in One* is basically a complete nappy as it is. It is used exactly like the disposable ones. The soaker is manufactured as part of the nappy and can be fastened using snaps or Velcro.

An *All in Two* is just the same only the soaker can be removed. This comes especially handy when the baby pees and you can take out the soaker from a pocket and substitute it with a new one.

## The Pocket

A pocket styled nappy usually does not require any cover as it is created with a polyurethane laminate or very close type of material. The material on the inside is made of microfleece, velour, cotton or bamboo. The choice of material will determine the dryness of a baby. Nappies like this are usually sewn with an opening for insertion of materials that are good for absorption like microfiber or hemp.

## How Does a Fitted Nappy Work?

This type of nappy is made of cotton, hemp and fleece and sewn together but without the waterproof layer. Therefore it will need an additional cover layer. The cover is important to avoid the baby's pee leaking through to the furniture or onto your lap.

## Prefold Style Nappies

Prefold nappies are the unadorned rectangular cloths that are folded up into 3 areas. There are a total of 4 layers on the outer side while 6 or 8 layers on the inner side. The fabric usually used are -- again -- cotton, hemp and bamboo. These nappies are handy for pocket stuffing and great for extra absorbency.

A good idea is to look for bulk nappies. Since you will always be going through nappies during your child's early years, getting nappies wholesale would represent good savings. It may cost more upfront but over the long haul and especially if you have more kids, you will appreciate having lots on hand or even for when you have your friends and their babies over for a visit. You can find cloth nappies Australia online but you may want to try them out first so that you don't place a large order and then realize they're not what you were wanting. Or should we say...not what your *baby* was wanting?
