Nappies and how to fold them

I know that there are two types of nappies available. One is cotton fabric nappies which are washable and ready for use again and again. The second type is the ready made disposable and sterile, available in the markets. You can use any of the two depending on your choice and circumstances. If you opt for first one, see that you buy soft but durable stuff. Frequent laundering will be possible only then.
There are 4 ways of folding a nappy. First is the triangle nappy. Here, fold the nappy into a triangle. Then, put the triangle under baby’s buttocks. One corner should lie between his legs. The other two corners should lie round the baby’s middle. Join the three corners with a safety pin in the front. Second is the oblong nappy in which there are two ends at the back. You should bring the corner of the front up between the legs and then join to the ends of the back with safety pins. Third, the so-called twisted nappy is more or less the same as an oblong nappy. But you are required to twist it before bringing up between the legs and then join the ends of the front with safety pins. In the fourth type, kite nappy, the sides of the nappy are so folded that it becomes wide on the top and narrow at the bottom. Using safety pins join the front and the back ends.
