Bayrli®5 Tips for Navigating Teething and Cloth Diapering Simultaneously

5 Tips for Navigating Teething and Cloth Diapering Simultaneously

Becoming a parent is an exhilarating journey filled with unique challenges and experiences. Two common phases that young parents often find themselves juggling are teething and the decision to use cloth diapers. Both of these stages come with their own sets of trials and tribulations. When experienced concurrently, they can sometimes feel overwhelming. But fret not! Here at Bayrli, we're here to provide you with some tried-and-tested tips to help you gracefully navigate both challenges.

1. Preparation is Key:

For Teething: Familiarize yourself with the signs of teething such as excessive drooling, irritability, or your baby gnawing on things. Keep soothing tools on hand - teething rings, cold spoons, or even a damp washcloth can be of great help.

For Cloth Diapering: Stock up on a good number of high-quality cloth diapers. Having a rotation will ensure you're not frequently washing, allowing you some time to comfort your teething baby.

2. Stick to a Routine:

Teething: Consistency can help both you and your baby. If you notice your baby's teething discomfort tends to spike during a certain time of day, make it a point to be available for soothing during that time.

Cloth Diapering: Washing and changing routines can be a lifesaver. This not only ensures that your baby is always in a clean diaper but also prevents any rash which can further irate a teething baby.

3. Comfort is Paramount:

Teething: Gentle gum massages or over-the-counter pain relief (after consulting with your paediatrician) can be effective in easing pain. A comfort object or increased cuddling can also provide the necessary emotional support your baby needs.

Cloth Diapering: Always ensure that the cloth diaper is not too tight and is made of breathable material. Your baby's comfort should always be a top priority, and cloth diapers can be adjusted to fit just right, making them less irritable.

4. Stay Informed and Trust Your Instincts:


Teething: Every baby is different. Some might have teething symptoms for months before a tooth emerges, while others might wake up with a new tooth and no prior symptoms. Stay informed about the teething process but also trust your parental instincts when it comes to comforting your child.

Cloth Diapering: While there's a lot of advice out there on cloth diapering routines, wash cycles, and more, trust your judgement. If you feel that a particular method is working best for your baby and you, stick with it!

5. Seek Support and Share Experiences:

Both Teething and Cloth Diapering: Engage with a community of parents. This can be online forums, parenting groups, or close friends and family. Sharing experiences can offer new perspectives and solutions. Additionally, just knowing that you're not alone in juggling both challenges can be immensely comforting.


Teething and cloth diapering, when happening at the same time, can indeed feel like a handful. However, with the right strategies, resources, and mindset, it's entirely possible to navigate these phases smoothly. Remember, every challenge faced together strengthens the bond between you and your baby. Embrace these moments, trust your journey, and know that you're doing a wonderful job.
