Our diapers were the main stars in the cloth diaper write-up in The Sunday Times 4th July 2010. Two moms who use Bumwear diapers were interviewed for the article and both were unanimous in agreeing that cloth diapers save money in the long run

Happy New Year. Xin Nian Kuai Le !

We would like to wish you a very Happy Lunar New Year. May you and your loved ones be blessed with plenty of love, laughter and good fortune in this year of the Tiger

Talking of Tiger year and Tiger babies, we have one in our family. Gillian is 12 this year and she’s grown up so much from the time when she started modelling for Bumwear wayyyyyyy back in 2002. Here’s a photo of the 4 year old Gillian :

She's lost all her puppy fat ;-)

In case any of you are hesitating having a Tiger baby this year - my advise is: go for it My Tiger girl has a feisty and independent spirit while at the same time, tender hearted. She can definitely hold her own against her 3 high-spirited brothers. A definite asset to our family.

Bumwear Pantyliners

Did you know that the panty liners that most of us use every day is a major contributing factor to vaginal yeast infection ?

Consider the following facts:
• Disposable liners contain a myriad of chemicals and additives (green tea scented panty liners, anyone ? ) that serve to increase their absorbancy and mask the smell.
• Our genital tissues are highly sensitive, and these chemicals can be easily absorbed into our bodies, causing irritation, discomfort and itch in the process.
• The adhesive strip at the bottom of the pantyliner is made of plastic. And, we all know that skin is unable to breath through plastic. It is a common knowledge that bacteria grow much faster in wet and warm area. This will highly likely lead to vaginal irritation and yeast infection.

Bumwear is now offering to moms what we have been offering to babies since 2002 - comfort and freedom from chemical laden disposables !

Kenan toilet trained just before 2

I am thrilled that our fifth baby is finally toilet trained ! And as a bonus, he did it a month before he turned 2 years old. An advantage to cloth diapers is that they usually lead to earlier toilet training because the child actually knows when he or she is wet.

Toilet training Kenan was a breeze. We just told him that he was a big boy and he didn’t need his diapers any more. For the first 2 days, we brought him to the toilet every hour and asked him in between each hour whether he wants to go toilet.

By the third day, we caught 80% of his pee and poo in the day time. The other 20% we missed was when we were too engrossed doing our own stuff and forgot to remind him.

By the sixth day, he was accident free in the daytime. He still wears his cloth diapers at night. I’m way too lazy to wake up at night to bring him to the toilet but he mostly wake up with dry diapers.

He was still wearing his hand-me-down one size Bumwear diapers when he was toilet trained at 23 months. I didn’t even have the chance to take Meghan’s training pants out from storage for him to wear. This shows that you can indeed wear the one size diapers from a very baby baby to the toilet training age.

Bumwear diapers are CPSIA compliant

Bumwear is pleased to announce that our diapering products have been rigorously tested through CPSC approved testing facilities and they not only met the most recent safety standards set by the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (“CPSIA”), but also proactively meet the future regulations outlined in this legislation.

We want to assure all our valued clients that our products are and have always been manufactured in a method that is compliant with the guidelines as outlined by the CPSIA. Our testing results indicate that our diapering products will also meet the more stringent requirements that will come into effect in August 2011.

Going forward we would be issuing General Certification of Conformity with our shipments to our USA retailers.

Xin Nian Kuai Le

Here’s wishing all our customers a year ahead that’s filled with love, laughter, happiness and abundance. Xin Nian Kuai Le, Wan Shi Ru Yi !
