“Are cloth diapers recommended for babies?”
I am a new mother and I am very confused whether to opt for normal diapers or the cloth diapers for my little one. Can you please suggest which is best?

It's really your choice. There's more work involved with cloth diapers. It may be more cost effective, though. If you store the dirty diaper in a bin with a deodorant & remove weekly, it is more convenient. But, again, it is really your choice.
Are you a stay-at-home Mom with time to wash diapers? This does help the environment and is cost effective. However, disposable diapers keep them drier. You do have to change cloth diapers more frequently.
Although cotton diapers are the best, with modern lifestyles, they are not convenient. If some mother wants to clean them properly and often, cotton diapers are best.
You should use the diapers available in the market. You should use Desitin in the diaper area. This has Zinc in it, which is a protective barrier. If your baby gets frequent diaper rash, discuss with the pediatrician. You can use cloth diapers if you like, but it is more work for you.
As a new mother, it is better to use diapers as they are convenient, easy to apply, and easy to carry and dispose. They give a fresh and smooth feeling. You can have more time to spend with your newborn, improving your mother and child bond. I hope you like it.
