Do cloth diapers cause more diaper rash?
Many people believe that cloth diapers cause more rash than disposables. In fact, the opposite is generally true. According to the Journal of Pediatrics, 54% of one-month old babies using disposables had rashes and 16% had severe rashes. A study by a leading manufacturer of disposable diapers showed that the occurrence of diaper rash increases from 7% with cloth diapers to 61% with the use of disposables.
