What Do You Carry Your Cloth Wipes In.

[mummytojack]

Ok ladies, I have finally made the full time transition from disposable wipes to cloth wipes. I use a chamomile tea mix and its working great at home...the catch is every two weeks we travel to Perth for the footy and I want to use cloth wipes when I travel too. Sooo my question to you is tell me or show me what you carry your wipes around in!

I am sure there is something funky on the market I can buy!

A little wetbag I usually just make them damp and put them in there

Until I get a nice little wipes wallet, I'm just using the H*ggies travel wipes hard container. It works well but trust me, I want to get rid of it!

[happymuppet]

Oh, and Gill where are you in WA?

[mummytojack]

yes im in WA I live in York! Are you in WA.

[happymuppet]

Yes but I'm in Albany, I was sort of hoping you might be near by! Oh well.....

Just when you said about going to perth for footy, i could understand, DH used to go to narrogin, katanning, perth for rugby!

I actually just carry a couple of dry face washers around with me and wet them if I need to. You can wet them anywhere - water jug at a restaurant, a bottle of drinking water, the taps in a change room.
That way you dont have to clean out your nappy bag everytime you get home - unless htere is a nappy change of course.
I also still carry some disposable wipes around. Sometimes they are just the thing thats needed in a hurry for cleaning sticky fingers or a dirty table, or even a toilet seat in a public toilet for Jenna.
I use a packet of them every 6m or so, I'm not going to beat myself up on that

For ages, I used to carry wet wipes in a small tupperware container but found that I was leaving them in the bag wet for days on end and they'd get gross. (that was before i had a definite nappy bag though)

I then started carrying dry wipes in a zip up purse (along with a spare snappy, some of that alcohol handwash stuff and a little tub of aromababy bottom balm) and a separate bottle of water. We did that for almost a year without any dramas.

Earlier this year I developed an addiction to commercial wipes (where's the shame emoticon? lol) when we were travelling. (It was camping that started it, then I relapsed again when we went to Thailand.) I was still using cloth on DD's bottom but starting using single use wipes for other things... highchairs, hands, tables, cutlery...

In order to fight my addiction, I have recently started carrying wet (cloth) wipes around again, but this time in a Huggies travel case. And it's working.

There, I've outed myself. My name is Emma and I am a recovering single-use wipes addict.

ROFL....

Hi Emma, we are here help.

LOL

I use the Huggies container at home but wanted to know what the go was out and about. I managed to find a lovely wipe wallet today whilst doing the GDUNH. It even matches my nappy bag!

I tells ya even though I have 6 weeks to go until number 2 is born I just know I have to have more children so I can buy more things!!!

I also carry them dry in a ziplock bag or small wetbag and carry a small water spray to wet them if I don't have a tap or water nearby. I also like to be able to fully dry her bum afterwards so I use a dry cloth at the end.
