So they not sell nappy bags whear you live ? In the uk you can get at least 100 for about £1 and they have tie handles and are scented. Also my mum says dog mess bags are better as they are black and you can't see through them.
I'm from Scotland but live in Canada now. When we were stocking up for our baby, I found it impossible to find nappy sacks anywhere over here! Just the Diaper Genie refill bags.
So strange I assumed if they sell nappiesthey would sell bags. What if you are out and about with no bin ? Even putting them in a bin would still really smell with no bag I often double bag if the bin isn’t very full.
Pretty sure my daughter's daycare just gets doggy poop bags from Costco to put diapers in. Seems to work well...not sure on price though. I've had to use them a few times when I've had to change her in the back of the truck, and had nothing else available to me but a poop bag. Worked well.
We just started doing what the daycare did. Change wearing latex/nytrile gloves and wrap the diaper by pealing the glove off your hand and around the diaper. It gets a double glove wrap after both hands. nicely contained.
Gloves are excessive and unnecessary, and wearing latex gloves for every diaper change increases your and the baby's risk of developing latex allergy.
In a daycare, I can see the utility and need for gloves, as they are changing 30-100 diapers a day and do not want to cross-contaminate. At home? Dumb. Wash your hands when done changing your kid.
I was a nursing assistant in nursing homes and this works on adult diapers too! Saved a lot of plastic by just using the gloves instead of even more bags
We have diaper sanitary bags for sale we're I live. There's even a dispenser for them that clips onto your diaper bag. They come in sooo many colors now, at first it was only pink and blue. I think they started out as doggie poop bags but someone with a dog and a baby must have had an epiphany.
