Lampin turned prefold 1 2 3..

Malaysia is well known for it's dozen of lampin/ nappy for their NB.
here are step by step tips from me and inspired by SR of miabambina who insisted that i used my 2 dozens of lampins to good use...and of course some mom out there who needs some guidance on how to fold and sew it...sorry for the delay.... i go bercuti bah....


You can use any brand of lampin available out there but do remember that the thicker your lampin are the longer it takes time to dry. so i choose a bit loose fabric so it will dry faster ...i thought so too...
1. Fold the lampin to half or in a rectangular shape..

2.Take a quarter of the left end or right..(which ever side..i'm a lefty) and bring it to the other quarter centre. assuming that you can visualize into 3 quarters..

3.After folding in the other corner too..the centre of the lampin should be thick as it is use as added absorber...

4. This is how many layers it should have in the centre...6 layers in the centre and 4 layers on each side. Then sew along the borders where the centre meets...or you can sew whichever suits you..

5. ta daaa...sew the completed lampin/ prefold....oh..it took me only 2 hrs to sew 1 1/2 dzn lampin ...with my mom's old singer sewing machine...

this is very useful as an insert for your pocket cd's if you feel the available microfibre inserts too bulky...
pros...saves times foldong into triangles, can be folded 2 ways in length , good as burp clothes, stain easily removed

cons...super lambat kering at the centre, will not last more than 2 hours unless you add a booster and paired with pocket cd's.

well....thanks ...i hope i've describe it well ....do correct me for any mistakes made..

I believe that Avi's cloth diaper is a lil bit too much but i always seem to run out of CD. Be it rainy or sunny day...my favourite CD's are fitted and OS pocket. Our first cloth diaper were Drybees pocket & Drybees AIO, then some freshbots & bummis diaper cover, that's was when we finally decided that we were gonna stick to CD for a long time. Our passion grew and soon begin ordering CD from US. We ended up having more than enough. We finally open up an e-store based in KK for local moms to have the chance to experience the goodness of CD.

I do get some comments like ' what cloth diaper are you using? flat nappies?' , ' How do you wash of the poo?' , ' Isn't it expensive?', ' do you have all the time to do laundry/ fold cloth diapers?' , okay , there were lots more but i do see a good side to it, I can actually explain and show that I care for the environment, let my child wear cloth instead of disposable diaper, and show them that i don't sigh or groan whenever I put a fresh CD on my child and in 5 minutes , when she poo..i don't worry about throwing the dispo diaper away, i just rinse of her poo ( still breastfeeding) and put a fresh new CD on her...no worries, I've travelled long journey 5 hours from KK- KLIA - Muar, or from KK to Tamparuli/ Papar ) and do experience her poo in the journey, well, I just remove the soiled CD and put it in a wet bag, when i reached home, i just wash it off, okay now you might even say, "isn't stinky?", it smells , yes, whose doesn't?

I do experience stinky pocket diaper due to detergent built up, what I do is, 1st I rinse and let it soak with Sodium Bicarbonate then rinse with distilled vinegar to neutralize the alkaline (in a basin). Sometimes i don't use vinegar just Dettol to disinfect and rinse with extra water to rid of smell, for the final rinse, and depending on how much CD i've wash, i use rinse and spin on the washing machine setting I usually do this routine in the evening and line dry. It dries quickly the next day under hot sun. Never bleach your microfiber insert, it will only cause it to repel water ( i've experimented it) and if you however did that...rinse with loads of clean water. Some e-store do have special detergent to wash CD and if that suits you, it would be great. I'm just using ordinary detergent without softener / whitener , bleach/ clorox or fragrance ( fragrance add more smell to CD), i won't advertise the detergent here...LOL!!

It's strange that strange odour only happens to pocket diaper and not fitted ...i guess because fitted doesn't have fleece. But whatever it is, proper care is needed for cloth diaper. Well, whatever, i am proud to be cloth diapering my child and even more proud that i am not adding garbage every weekend. Happy cloth diapering!!
