Miss all organic woo uses disposable diapers and disposable polyester wipes? I don’t usually fault anyone for using disposable diapers but given the work involved, but since miss woo decided to water birth and made her baby a silent, unmoving potato it seems like she would have time for the extra effort.
It looks like baby brother gets cloth diapers. I can't think of anything in Luna's condition that would make disposable preferable, though, so the discrepancy seems odd.Miss all organic woo uses disposable diapers and disposable polyester wipes?

If she doesn’t manage to break the brain of the new baby it’s going to be interesting. I still can’t believe she thought she just had the worlds most silent chill newborn and it took her three months to get Luna examined. I swear she was probably planning to sell some woo new agey cure for infant crying until she got the Dx.
Lol. I’m going to guess they are for photography purposes. I can’t tell you how many women I knew who said they were totally committed to using cloth diapers and last approximately one or two weeks. Some of the hardier ones lasted until solid foods started.It looks like baby brother gets cloth diapers.

During the big annual Christmas toy and food drive in my city they always say that they also want diapers, and in particular the larger sized ones (in addition to adult incontinence products). Even though way too many parents anymore aren't invested in potty training their kids in a timely manner anymore, the largest sized ones will fit younger elementary school-age kids and are far more likely to be intended for incontinent tard kids that will always be incontinent. There's no point in coming out and saying it though because toy drives have a hell of a time getting donations for anyone other than tiny babies and little kids.When I lived in my old town, I was involved in a Christmas project for needy families, and went shopping for a family who had a child in diapers. Because we were still within the budget, I not only got a megapack of disposables, I also got a package of cloth diapers and pins, which really wasn't that expensive. The lady who did the intake rolled her eyes and said, "Oh, yeah, I was going to do that when I had my kids, and that didn't last very long." I replied, "If they have these" (picks up cloth diapers) "they'll be less likely to need to use these" (picks up a package of dish towels).
One thing that never changed was that whenever junior-high aged kids came in to wrap presents, they thought it was so hysterically funny that people would get diapers for Christmas. Even though I never had kids, I told them, "When you get older, if you ever have kids, you'll really appreciate it, and when your friends and siblings have kids, you will probably be tempted to get them fancy little outfits, but really, they can use these more."
They still exist... but only if you live in a larger metropolis and have a lot of money. Diaper service isn't nearly as affordable as it was back in the day when a ton more people used it... now it's a yuppie luxury because poor people use disposables. If more people used diaper services then the price would go down...I’m not sure why they haven’t brought back the diaper services that were available in 1950’s. Just like the milk man you had a truck that picked up dirty cloth diapers and dropped off washed clean ones. It would save so much landfill space.

I don't know. Where I work a lot of our disabled clients are incontinent, and I don't mean just the old people. It's part of their disability. A lot of them are also dirt poor and even when they have a doctor's prescription (under "durable medical equipment") it's still expensive.I disagreed, because a lot of the bigger diapers are for children to wear at night, because they're still wetting the bed - and who's more likely to do that than a child who is traumatized?
I used a diaper service in 2011. I lasted 6 months. When the real solid food started it was just too gross for the weekly pick up and drop off. It was also significantly more expensive than disposable. There was no way I could clean all those diapers myself.I’m not sure why they haven’t brought back the diaper services that were available in 1950’s.

I'm going to take a guess and say that luna's head alone weighs more than the entire rest of her body. No idea why her mother thinks she should be able to hold her head up on her own.Does Luna have any consciousness? Like can she feel the spoon and food on her face? It's really not clear from what her mom Robyn says.

I just finished that book. Can’t recommend it enough.Poverty will lead to increased teen pregnancy because poor teenage girls are much more likely to get pregnant on purpose. Providing contraception won’t change that. Read ‘Promises I can keep: why poor women put motherhood before marriage’.
There’s a lot of factors that lead to spuddery aside from a random roll of the genetic dice.
1). Inbreeding. The Amish and the FLDS have issues with this, but I don’t know if they’re a significantly large enough portion of any state’s population to make a noticeable difference in tater births.
2). Maternal alcohol and drug abuse. A really significant number of Alaska Native children are born with FASD, and Appalachia (and everywhere dealing with heroin addiction, but Appalachia is especially bad) has a lot of babies born to mothers who do meth and/or heroin.
3). Environmental factors like pollution. Very locally specific, more so than just an entire state.
4). Mom (and dad) themselves being tards. Unfortunately the worse deindustrialization gets, the more the ‘left behind’ will be people who simply cannot leave, and they will disproportionately be the learning disabled and low IQ, which means their town will get dumber.
Not true. With the horrific cocktail of chemicals and equipment that's getting pumped into these creatures, kidney stones are also on the menu.
God created those children in His perfect image, Crunchy. But then He got busy with some other shit and forgot to finish up with the heart and a good chunk of the brain. Not His fault.The A&H crowd cheering on Poland banning abortions for fetal anomalies today. Saw other pro lifers elsewhere online saying ‘fuck ableism’. Why do they support bringing children into the world who will die a painful death almost immediately?
I bought a megapack of diapers for a family friend's baby shower, and my husband thought it was tacky to do so. He said it was saying the parents didn't have money for diapers.When I lived in my old town, I was involved in a Christmas project for needy families, and went shopping for a family who had a child in diapers.

Makes you really respect your ancestors, doesn't it?I used a diaper service in 2011. I lasted 6 months. When the real solid food started it was just too gross for the weekly pick up and drop off.

My kid was potty trained by 2 as well. I took a different approach. He liked being naked so I just let him be naked at home. As soon as he walked in the door he would strip down to nothing. It was so easy. Of all the kids I knew that had potty training issues, I observed that it was likely because the parents were complacent/lazy about it.
Diapers and a toy for when baby was enough enough for toys were always my mom's top choice for pregnant coworkers. They weren't as exciting to open as little outfits that only get maybe worn once, but experienced parents understood and appreciated them. First time mothers were sometimes a little confused (and also it wasn't exciting), but quickly appreciated them once baby actually arrived. I think the only ones who never understood were the non-parents who didn't have anything to "ooooh" over.I don't know of one parent who would be offended at getting a jumbo pack of diapers.
I've been to many baby showers where the mom to be gets multiple packages of diapers, and thinks she's set for a year. All of us experienced moms are thinking "you sweet summer child, you're going to be changing around 10 diapers a day for a while."Diapers and a toy for when baby was enough enough for toys were always my mom's top choice for pregnant coworkers.

I've said before but the A&H crowd is just mad about abortion because it means women are having sex with men that aren't them. I guess even FUBAR fetuses are proof of that so of course women should be punished by being forced to gestate them.The A&H crowd cheering on Poland banning abortions for fetal anomalies today.
