The average cost of a 72-80 pack of store bought disposable wipes is about $5. Using an average of 1.5 packs per month = $7.50 $7.50 x 30 months of diapering = $225 for disposable wipes This is a conservative estimate and does not factor in using natural wipes. A box of natural wipes will run you closer to $12.00 per box of 20 wipes! Remember, you will need to continue buying disposable wipes for each child so this figure gets multiplied! Depending on your fabric choices, you can purchase cloth wipes that should last you through at least two children, if not three or four, for about $30: To wipe baby's bottom clean using our small cloth wipes, you'll spend about $30 for 24 wipes. That's it! No buying more wipes each month = $30-$52 for cloth wipes = $25.98 per dozen = $14.99 per dozen Wondering how many cloth wipes you'll need? We recommend at least 2 dozen wipes if you do not plan on using disposable wipes. A safe amount is to have a wipe for each diaper change plus another 1/2 dozen for messy diapers and other uses. |
