A burp cloth is used to protect your clothes from spit-up when burping your baby. It also comes in handy for drool, spills, or wiping your baby’s mouth during and after feeding.
How many burp cloths do I need?
+-
Most parents find that 8 to 12 burp cloths are ideal. This allows for a clean one always on hand, even between laundry days.
What's the best material for burp cloths?
+-
Soft, absorbent materials like cotton or muslin are best. Organic cotton is especially great for sensitive baby skin and provides excellent absorbency.
When should I start using burp cloths?

You can start using burp cloths from day one. Newborns often spit up after feedings, and a good burp cloth helps keep you and your baby clean.
How do I wash and care for burp cloths?
