Ok, so I bought some baby powder about 8 months ago. I bought 2 of the 22oz jug things.
Curious, how much am I supposed to use per diaper? The reason I ask is because I’ve gone through nearly an entire case of bambinos and over 80 other diapers (well over 120 diapers total, plus the useage of cloth a few times every now and then) and I’m still on the first jug. I realize I don’t use diapers as much as baby’s do and I’m not exactly complaining that it’s lasted me this long, I’m just curious -why- it’s lasted so long.
I’ve seen videos of AB’s changing themselves or others or whatever and they use, what seems to me, an INSANE amount of powder sometimes and I’m wondering if powder is most effective when I coat my crotch area or if it’s actually supposed to be drenched like that.
I dunno, just kinda weird that I looked down and still saw that I had half a jug of the baby powder left after over 100 diapers.
I have had the same 15oz container since August and I have about half the container left, and I put a lot on. Maybe baby powder just goes a long way for some people and doesnt last long for others.
It’s all a personal thing. A light dusting will do you fine. I use a decent sprinkle on my boys…well…only one now, the other is out of diapers. But even when the wife diapers me, or I diaper myself. I only use enough to get the job done. At times the wife will use way…way to much. That is on purpose though, so that when I move, sit or do something else I will release some of that powder and smell like baby powder.
