If I could have chosen to pay less and not get a box, I might have ordered one a long time ago. It’s in my doula bag now. Brought it with me to a branding photoshoot and got compliments on the color. My only concern is that the instruction manual says to dispose of it after 10 washes/if it gets significantly soiled… so if I’m washing it after each birth, is it breaking down and becoming less sturdy? I thought this would last so much longer, and I don’t want multiple sweaty clients using it without washing in between.
