Book Reviews of Diaper Free: The Gentle Wisdom of Natural Infant Hygiene

Book Review: This is just so much better.
Summary: 5 Stars

I now have more time to wash the rest of my laundry. With two children in cloth diapers I was washing diapers every two days. My daughter I then potty trained in the traditional manner at 28 months and began to practice elimination communication with my son. The first couple weeks I felt a little lost and felt I needed a reference on hand and ordered this book. I then waited for its arrival as each day I was cuing my son with "pssss" every time he peed (mostly on me). This book was a tremendous help and encouraged me to continue. All the romantic talk about mother-baby bonding and intuition was nice and relaxing to read after the little ones went to sleep. Gradually things started getting better and now (at a week shy of 6 months old) he always pees in the toilet during the day unless I forget to take him. I don't even have to cue him anymore. I simply hold him over the toilet and he knows what to do. My son is very fair skinned and when wearing diapers 24/7 he always seemed to be red and was particularly inflamed in his skin creases, despite how often I changed him. Now that he only wears diapers to sleep in, his skin is a picture of perfection and I have also noticed that he pees less in his sleep. Most of the time he waits until I take him to the potty after his nap to pee. He's a happier baby. And I'm a happier mommy.

Summary of Diaper Free: The Gentle Wisdom of Natural Infant Hygiene

Most new parents think of diapers as a smelly, expensive, and unavoidable necessity. The good news is that it's possible-even practical-to raise your kids without diapers. In Diaper Free!, Ingrid Bauer shows how you can:

* Save thousands of dollars
* Reduce landfill waste (single-use disposable diapers are responsible for one third of the non- biodegradable waste in landfills)
* Avoid diaper rash
* Use the "Four Tools for Diaper Freedom" to enhance your relationship with your baby and deepen communication.

Based on extensive research, case studies, and the author's own experience, Diaper Free! is a warm and helpful companion at every stage, from the first magical days of your baby's life, to complete toilet independence.
