Baby Towels in General

The only advantage to this type of towel is that they have a hood which covers the baby's head to keep it warm. Other than that, these are no better than regular towels. Most baby towels come as part of a pack with a baby bath and top and tail bowl but i do think its wiser and cheaper to just buy them separately. Baby towels can be bought from most supermarkets and baby stores such as Mothercare but are usually over priced. The ones i bought when expecting turned out to be very thin and not very long lasting. I was really annoyed as i had spent nearly five pound on each one and i should have just bought some normal bath towels that would have done a better job. You do ...  Read the complete review

I dimly remember preparing this 'must-have' list shortly after the birth of our sprog. (We hadn't bought anything other than a BNWT Moses basket off of Ebay beforehand due to - well, good old Chinese superstision combined with generalized levels doom-mongering on the part of the maternal grandparents. So I could quite easily see myself returning from the maternity hospital empty-handed after something Going Horribly Wrong With The Birth and then having to chuck out all the stuff we'd bought....it was like a scene from an 'EastEnders' script). Anyway against all expectations a healthy sprog was delivered with scarcely a hitch and so on the list of ...  Read the complete review

Right, thought I would write a quick review on these because I do believe I have wasted my money buying these types of towels for my kids. A baby towel is a small square towel (about twice the size of a hand towel) with a hood in one corner. Now depending on where you buy these from and how much you pay, they can be plain or patterned or with some sort of logo on, and they can be extremely thin, and end up like sand paper after a couple of washes, or they can be nice and fluffy and even stay that way after numerous washes. Before our first daughter was born my husband and I went about buying everything we could think of that we needed to have for a ...  Read the complete review

Baby bath towels are very small towels with a hood bit on one corner. They're about the right size to wrap a small baby in - up to six months, absolute tops. And the hood part fits over their head, which makes it a bit easier to wrap them up. You're often in a hurry to get them warm and dry after a bath, and small babies are slippery (and usually yelling their heads off at this point). So every little helps. However, if you're on a budget, you don't need these. You have towels, don't you? Use those. A normal towel works as well. A hand towel to start with, then a small bath towel as they get bigger. However, here are some reasons why you might get ...  Read the complete review

Isn't it funny how society can con you into thinking you actually need something especially when it comes to babies and children? When I got pregnant I wrote a list of every single thing I thought I would need and then went back through the list and looked at the 'Definates' and 'Maybe's'. The baby towels were on the 'Definates' list without a doubt. Even when I went to the shop and saw how darn expensive they were, I still bought some. For those of you who aren't up to date with all the baby lingo and equipment then I will explain what a baby towel is. Basically you take a small towel about the size of a hand towel (maybe a bit bigger) and you attach a hood ...  Read the complete review
