Are baby wipes an as yet unidentified species of intelligent but bloody-minded life?

Question

Why is it that when you only need one, several emerge from the packet at once? And why, when the intended target is sticky and widespread, do they perform self-origami instead of remaining flat, open and useful? Any tips on taming these rascals gratefully received.

Answer 1

They are indeed a lower form of life, however one must remember that they only act upon an extra-sensory command emitted along with your infant's high pitched cry.... For example if said babe is happy and jolly the wipes are dispensed without a hitch, however attempt wipeage on an unhappy, squalling infant and chaos will ensue.

For the record, of course, the answer is to take a few wipes out of the package and lay them out before you even bare baby's bottom, placing them atop the fresh nappy whilst you reveal the carnage within.

Answer 2

ask yourself, what did we do before baby wipes? Answer, either wash the baby (not always convenient if you're outside the home) or carry a spare damp flannel in our bag. Much better for the nevionrment, can be washed, cheaper too. You will never win with the baby wipes, try a flannel instead and spend the money you've saved on some luxuries!

Answer 3

The so-called softer wipes are worse than thicker ones - half the time they are squeezed so tightly into their packaging its impossible to even get the first one out - try to get a wipe box - huggies usually do one on offer a few times a year. so far i have discovered they are far more useful than they let on but only the ones that are not dripping with whatever fluid it is they excrete

Answer 4

and they always seem to sprout legs ans run off just at the time you need them most,although do come in handy when you run out of loo roll.

Answer 5

As long as you insist on feeding them, it'll be hard to keep them away.
