I find it hard to understand why people carry on so much about accidents – can’t they just clean it up? Do their babies now spew, chuck, posset, dribble and barf? LOL…

Yes, I understand diaper sewing is really addictive! Myself, I made all my son’s trainers, these days though I simply shriek at the machine as it always has an empty bobbin, a broken thread JUST when I sit down to use it – so I buy them instead! I’ll have a look for that next post!

May I put a link to my EC site for your readers who are still in that stage? (Further down the thread!)

Thanks!

LOL, sigh – that’s the Murphy’s Law of EC!

I’m pretty sure that’s just me.

Any number of horrible things have happened because someone thought, “Hey, let’s do what CLT does.”

As for random words, well, you’ve been to my website. That’s pretty much all I have. And if you take that away…

I guess I’ll go play with my Lego men.

Laughing out loud, trying not to wake anyone! Thank you for visiting and for your hilarious comment.
I do hope you’ll be back.

Having had two kids who I just KNEW when they were going to go, I was determined to do that EC thingy with the third… Trouble is he has autism and so I lost a carpet and invested in a steam cleaner before he was two.

Baby no 4 just goes – no expression change at all. The only clue he is about to let go is that his nether regions are blissfully unhampered by anything absorbent, and simultaneously dangling over something that is either expensive and dry clean only, or owned/worn by the squeamish…..

I am going to borrow one of CLT’s ideas and just start posting random words, since my comment threads have nothing at all to do with my posts.

Aren’t we really just turning into a message board that craves world wide adoration?

I routinely have you all beat there because vicious head-beatings are really the only way to keep unruly bloggers in line.

I’m not sure why I was chosen to administer the “brain-beatings.” Maybe it’s just some form of blogger hazing for the new guy.

I love my cloth diapers, too. They are so cute.

The people that I know who were successful often just ‘caught poos’. Which means that when their diapered children started to grunt, they took them to a potty. I don’t think any of them had a lot of success with catching the pee. At least not in infancy.

As for me, I haven’t actually tried EC. Although now that my cloth-diapered baby is starting solids I’m considering it. The dirty diapers are not as inoffensive as they used to be.

I don’t miss diapers. Those days are long gone.

As for the body parts piecing together… If everyone was all lumped together, just think of the big long blog you could have talking to yourselves?

Yes, I dig the bow tie in a way, but when I think “full figured” I’m really looking for a Marilyn Monroe type thing. Some part of us should be beautiful, don’t you think?

But I do think we should have your brain. You have us all beat there, I think, and that says a lot.
