How many nappies does a baby get through per month?
* Baby's age: Newborns use more nappies than older babies.
* Feeding type: Breastfed babies tend to have more frequent, looser stools than formula-fed babies.
* Individual baby: Some babies are simply "heavy wetter" than others.
Here's a general range you can expect:
* Newborn (0-3 months): 8-12 nappies per day, or 240-360 nappies per month.
* Baby (4-12 months): 6-8 nappies per day, or 180-240 nappies per month.
Keep in mind:
* These are just estimates. You may need more or fewer nappies than this.
* As your baby grows, you'll likely need fewer nappies.
* You can also use cloth nappies, which are more environmentally friendly and cost-effective in the long run.
The best way to figure out how many nappies you need is to keep track of your baby's nappy changes for a few weeks and then calculate the average.
