- Scream if you like cloth diapers!
(baby cooing)
(laughing loudly)
- Hi, I'm Niche.
- Hi, I'm Greg.
- And this is Malachi, he's five months.
- And this week we'll be trying cloth diapers.
Thank you, Luludew,
for hitting us up with this complementary service.
- Hi, my name is Sandy and I'm the founder of Luludew.
We have designed our delivery service
to essentially deliver everything you need
so that you can cloth diaper your baby sustainably.
- When I'm nervous about cloth diapers,
it's pretty much the poop part.
How do I store the poop?
- When we deliver cloth diapers to your door,
you get the benefit of using them on your baby.
And when they're dirty, once a week,
we come to your home, pick up those dirty diapers
bring them back here to our warehouse
where we're gonna wash and sanitize them.
And then we deliver them to you, again.
Clean and ready to use.
(gentle music)
- So, we just got home
and look at what has arrived for us.
Organic diaper service from Luludew.
And we are going to see if we like them better
than using disposables and see how it works for us.
Are you excited to use cloth diapers?
Say, "Yay, cloth diapers."
(Niche laughing)
- It's seven o'clock in the morning
and looks like somebody's up.
Malachi's gonna get his diaper changed this morning.
So this is our first time using a cloth wipe.
So far so good.
It has to be damp,
just a little bit.
It's different from what we typically use.
Something that you wipe them
and you throw it away.
But now I guess we keep it, now?
We put on our first diaper. Yay.
(funky music)
- Okay, Malachi.
What are we going to do?
We're gonna change your diapey.
It is mommy's turn and this is her first time.
So, she's gonna see how she likes to do the cloth diapers.
Are you ready?
Let's do this.
And, okay.
Buttons.
There's three of them.
So, can mommy do the middle one.
Yeah, and then that one.
(Malachi cooing)
That was so easy and nice.
I didn't wanna do it too tight,
but I did wanna do it tight enough
so it does have some like, slack there, which is good.
You just little happy feet, ain't ya?
Really cool because when you're done changing his diaper,
I have his diaper and his wet cloth here.
Basically, I just put it inside of the diaper pail
that they had given us.
They come and pick it up later and then they wash it.
To be honest,
I don't even think that mommy's doing it right.
As long as it's on there it works, right?
You give mommy a thumbs up.
(lively music)
- So this is cloth,
different from the baby wipes itself,
but it's dry, but it feels good.
Let's go warm it up with warm water.
With poops itself it's a little weird.
Only because when you wipe poop, you throw away.
But this time I wipe,
I clean it.
And then, yeah.
So I'll have to keep using, not using the same one,
but use a different one, maybe.
For granted, Luludew did give us a lot of wipes
which is really good.
Malachi had a big poop today, and he was--
the cloth diaper was able to catch it all without leaking,
which is a good thing.
- [Niche] All right.
- I feel like these diapers definitely promotes
him to actually go and feel more comfortable.
Because usually when he poops,
he just starts crying uncontrollably.
And he was just perfectly fine.
Today, we'll be wearing the zebra cloth diaper.
This is waterproof itself and this is also cloth.
And also it comes with a pad
that's also detachable, attachable.
And just like (button clicks) that.
(Malachi cooing)
- [Niche] Hi, so you button it there.
- [Greg] All right.
- [Niche] Okay.
- [Greg] This side,
(Malachi cooing loudly)
same thing.
- [Niche] All right, yup.
I'd say it looks pretty good.
Go off diaper baby.
- Go off diaper baby.
(Latin music)
- All right, guys.
This is, today will be the first day we were traveling
with the Luludew's cloth diapers.
All right, as you can see
these are the diapers that we'll be traveling with.
- [Niche] How are you? You good?
(kisses Malachi loudly)
So you're going to get a wipe down
and you're going to get your diapey changed.
Are you ready?
He was out all day today.
And I say that it worked out pretty good.
He pretty much lasted the whole day.
He's very ecstatic, also very tired.
So we're going to go ahead
and give him a little feed and then put him down.
(energetic pop music)
It was really cool.
'Cause it's like the cloth diaper within itself
and then it has a pad.
So I was like, okay, how is that all going to fit?
And then we have the cloth wipes.
And then I was like, okay, do I wet them,
do I keep them dry?
So I was a bit confused.
And then when it came to clipping it on there,
there were so many buttons.
So I just picked one.
- It takes a little more time
but it's pretty much waterproof itself.
I would say definitely worth it.
I would say he definitely had more bowel movements,
more poops in the cloth diapers.
And he wouldn't cry about it.
And in his disposable diapers,
he would typically cry.
That's why I know it's wet.
But it seems like he was very comfortable
in the cloth diapers, if we're being completely honest.
It was definitely easy with the Luludew's service
because all we had to do
was pretty much put the soiled diapers
within the pale itself.
Disposable diapers are definitely cheaper,
to be completely honest
but your paying for the service.
- Another thing too, I'd like to point out
with having a delivery service for cloth diapers
is that you're reducing your carbon footprint.
- When a disposable diaper is made back in a factory,
usually overseas,
there's a lot of water, gas, and oil
that is used to make that single-use product.
It then has to get carted here to the U.S.
and then we put it on our baby only one time
to only end up in landfills.
So our diapers can be used upwards of 200 times.
They're washed and reused.
And the cool thing is
that water that we actually use to wash the diapers
is reserved, diverted to the city of LA
so we can irrigate freeway underpasses
and trees for the city.
So in essence,
we're even reusing, not only the diaper, but also the water.
(upbeat funk music)
- Cloth.
- Yeah, definitely cloth. Definitely.
- Hands down.
- No question about it.
The service itself, it's immaculate.
It's like white glove, to be completely honest.
