Becca’s Potty Training Necessities! What are yours?

Posted by Becca on October 17, 2011

Are you like me? Have you suddenly found yourself reaching the end of your cloth diaper journey with your child? Have you gotten to this crossroads where diapers meet underwear and you’re not sure what to do? I have to confess that this is the one thing about parenting that has terrified me since I was a little kid. How on earth do you teach a child how to use the potty? I mean, I helped my parents with all my siblings (4 of 6, that is) and I was an old pro at the mother thing when my daughter … [Read more...]

Potty Training Diaries: Our Story

Posted by Becca on October 3, 2011

I don’t even remember how long it’s been since our daughter, Bunny peed on the potty for the first time. It was back in the spring, I guess, when she was around 18 months old. It was whenever we decided to start sitting her on the potty for short periods of time and it was a fluke. We just happened to put her on the potty at just the right time and she peed without realizing it. Then we made a huge deal out of it and gave her stickers and chocolate. For the six months that followed, she’d … [Read more...]

The Foundations of Potty Training

Posted by Becca on July 6, 2011

My amazing little girl suddenly exploded into speech at about 13 months old. With this new ability to express what she wants and needs, everyone in our family is very excited. “Up!” “Down!” and “Nurse!” are some of her favorites, but the list has just grown and grown since then. At 16 months old, she can ask for just about anything she wants. She’s still using mostly just one word at a time, but there really isn’t much of anything she won’t say. I love being able to say, … [Read more...]

Going Coverless

Posted by Becca on January 7, 2011

My daughter, Bunny, got a rash. Not just a little, lets-use-prefolds-and-wool rash, but a rash so bad that it required some naked time and even a thick dose of rash cream. It was awful. It was all my fault, too. My precious little daughter normally avoids rashes due to her wonderful cloth diapers, but she’s also the type of baby who doesn’t really mind walking around in her own poop or pee, so she doesn’t exactly let me know if she needs a diaper change. That, coupled with the … [Read more...]

A Possible Solution for Night Time Pants that Stay Dry?

Posted by Cloth Diaper Blog Guest on March 8, 2010

We've shelled out a lot of money in the last year or two buying disposable Goodnites pants for night time diapering. I've always felt terrible-because first, we're wasting so much money, and second, all those disposables are going into the landfill! I know there has to be a better way, but we have tried other cloth potty training pants and nothing has stayed dry through the night. One of my children is a heavy night bed-wetter. There has never been a dry night with this one. Tears have … [Read more...]
