Looks like you guys have really been running amok lately while I've been gone! Well I haven't really been gone, I've been reading TT a little bit, but generally I have about a 5 min. per day to be on the computer, and I'm not good at typing w/one hand yet (the critter is generally in the other hand).
:-D

What do you all have to say for yourselves?

Well right now he's a no-hander, he's sleeping on my chest in his carrier!

Only 3.5 months, huh...that's not long! I bet it'll seem long though, haha.

Things seem to be speeding up. We're painting the nursery next weekend, then refinishing the floors the following week. We registered for some stuff last week. Lots of gotta-do's to finish up.

We're looking to babyproof the house in the next few weeks. E's looking to get on her knees here and there, so crawling ain't far behind.


I havn't been running amok on TT. I've hardly been here myself!

Things are about the same here, only moreso.....   more bltching, more politics, more trolls.

If I'm reading correctly, Sarge declared Troll War on everybody yesterday.   Something tells me we're going to need more 'ignore space'.

So yeah ----- Nothing new around here!

I've been wanting more "ignore" space ever since the "ignore" was invented! haha.

Sounds like she's keeping you very busy, Smiley. :-D

We don't mind changing diapers, we have some pretty awesome cloth ones. And we're trying Elimination Communication too...getting the pees & poops before they go into the diaper in the first place. I've "caught" 2 poops in the past 2 days! Granted, half of one went on me, but that's life...LOL. We've each caught several pees as well, fun times. I think it'll be easier when he can support his head more. He's already really strong for a little baby, though!

Lyra, I used cloth diapers with my first two...the old fashioned kind with safety pins and rubber pants over. Now the old diapers are great rags. What kind of diapers are you using? I want to go with cloth again with this one.

Ruby, you're having a baby too? Congrats, if so!! Man, I don't know what's in the water around here...

We have 12 Under the Nile brand organic cotton fitted diapers, 12 organic cotton Chinese prefolds, and 3 Bummis super whisper wrap covers (used with both kinds of cloth). I usually have to wash diapers every other day.

I used cloth diapers on my own as well. I still recall the putrid stench of the diaper pail; it boggles the mind and doesn't do much for the nose either. Glad you're posting:)

Its one thing to use diapers on a baby, but aren't you a grown man Nimblefoot? That's just plain sick!

          Ye'll hear the syrup chirrup,

Yes, Lyra, I'm pregnant. Wasn't planned, but we're so happy. I'm due at the end of October so have a looooooooooong way to go.

So out of the three types of diapers you're using, do you have a favorite?

Newborn poop doesn't stink, especially from breast fed babies. The diapers are a piece of cake to wash. So nice to not have to buy big packs of diapers all the time. I remember when Tuck was an infant 13 years ago. I had gone to the mall with him. A young woman approached me and asked if she could have a diaper of mine for her baby. When I told her I used cloth diapers and couldn't give her one, she had the most blank look on her face. She just couldn't understand it.

One more question for you, Lyra. Do you use a sling? I highly recommend it!

Newborn poop does stink, especially from breast fed babies. I worked in a newborn nursery and delivery room many, many years ago. Therapy has not removed the memory of those stinky diapers;)

I think what Ruby was saying is that her baby's #&%!$ doesn't stink.

That did occur to me. Denial is so strong, even as regards your own baby's poop.

That's interesting, Nimble. Yup, it must be like V said: My baby's #&%!$ won't stink!

Our baby's diapers don't stink.

I was kidding when I said I love changing diapers by the way.

It's not as bad as I thought it would be though.

It really isn't that bad, but there aren't so many volunteers for it either. I'm guessing that in those two years at the Naval Hospital in Japan, I changed more diapers than most men and a lot of women in their life time. Not anything I brag about.
