Flushable moist wipes?

[atcwag]

I keep seeing flushable moist wipes on sale and coupons for them. I know they are technically for adults (I guess TP just isn't good enough anymore ) - but aren't they really just baby wipes packaged differently? If I can get them for an acceptable price, are these ok to use on babies' bums?

I have seen a couple "free" coupons for tubs of these - in fact, I have a tub open in my bathroom that I got for free.

A friend of mine uses them for her daughter (when she has the free coupons), so I guess they are fine for babies.

However, don't flush them. She flushed hers and they clogged things up. The plumber who came said that wipes of any kind, don't fall apart like toilet paper and get stuck on the way down. He said that just because it says flushable on it, doesn't mean they actually are. He said the only thing you should throw in there is toilet paper.

My twins use kando flush wipes and we have not had any problems flushing them. Its says to only flush two wipes at a time....some of the other flushable wipes are thicker tho so maybe that is it.

Yes they would be fine to use on your babies bum. they are smaller in size tho.

YOu can use them on a baby...but they are way smaller..and you would need more to get their bum clean. Would be good though for just wiping them off when they had pee'd.

They're not as moist or quilted as baby wipes. We use them more for quick face washes on the go since I think they don't clean up as well.
