Well no but you would be best to buy what the locals buy, my daughter has brought or two children here using the local brands, a lot cheaper than Pampers..P.S I guess you wont do this but I have seen it done many times, do not despose of them down our loo's here, they just wont take it...have a good stay..

Big pack of local papmpers cost about £10cyp for 40 or so!

Thanks very much for the info.

We have been to Cyprus before but not with our little one so I know about your toilets anyway but thanks.

karen,
having a little one ourselves we took a few nappies with us to get through the first couple of days then brought some out there. Most supermarkets sell Pampers but are a lot more expensive than the bigger supermarkets (i.e ones in Debenhams dept stores) these are a lot cheaper. Even managed to get Papmpers pull ups!!
Don't know where the nearest Debenhams is in Ayia Napa as we go to paphos.
Also can buy Johnsons baby wipes/shampoo etc as well
Hope this helps

Thank you for your replies.

He will also be in swim nappies most of the day, it is only night that I think we will need them. Thanks for the tip about the large one lasting you just. We are limited for weight (probably like you) so I am just trying to review the best solution for us.

I am nervous about going away with him cause this will be our first time. Worried about breaking his sleeping routine,etc. I am sure we will all have a great time.

Thanks again. :D

dont worry about disrupting your childs sleep routine, just accept that its going to happen anyway regardless. enjoy your holiday you'll be just fine.

also the weight wasnt a problem, i was over in my suitcase but at check in i explained that my suitcase contained nappies wipes etc.

as explained i took a lg pk nappies, 1 lg pk wipes, 2 pks disposable swim nappies and 2 washables. i used the disposables when expecting a no2 and then switched to washables. without the washables i would have been up the creek without a paddle if you know what i mean

hope this helps

hi,i'm taking my 18 month old to protaros in 5 weeks. i was worried about routine, but then i realised he'd nap later in day been out and about so we'll cool off chill out then, and he'll be up much later so should go to bed ok. no dought he'll nod off in buggy while were out and i'll just transfer him to cot when we get in. not easy i know but they adapt and in the heat they'll be shattered an more than likely sleep better. my son has eczmae(excuse the spelling) so i'm more nervous about heat making him more itchy, any help with this would most appreciated? have a great time and dont worry!
