Cloth diapering was how our ancestors diaper their babies but with the invention of disposable diapers, we became dependent on disposable diapers. However, this dependence comes at a great cost not just to our environment but also to our child’s health. With many new cloth diapering systems available in the market today, adopting cloth diapers is easier than ever.
We have invited a cloth diaper expert, Victoria Chuard (Founder of Just Peachy), to show us all there is to know about cloth diapering. From how they work to selecting the right one for you and your family, plus tips and tricks to make the two-year journey of diapering simple and easy.

整天躺在睡牀上？

傳統社會，不論是香港還是西方社會，
媽媽都是家中主要的照顧者，
懷孕的是媽媽，
生孩子的是媽媽，
餵哺母乳的是媽媽。
生理上爸爸做不到這些東西，
但爸爸可以參與其他育兒的工作，
例如替寶寶換尿片、洗澡、與寶寶玩等。
