Book Reviews of Diaper Free: The Gentle Wisdom of Natural Infant Hygiene
Book Review: Every Mom should read this
Summary: 5 Stars
I am so happy I ran across this book and read it while I was pregnant. I have not chosen to go diaper free, but instead started putting my son on a Baby Bjorn potty at 7 weeks old just during diaper changes. From the very beginning he peed 99% of the time which kept the new diaper dry longer OR it saved the washcloth I was using to protect myself from squirts! He also immediately began pooping whenever he needed to. This is a much more natural position for elimination than laying on your back. Now at 4 months, I would estimate that 95% of his poop ends up in the potty instead of a diaper. I cannot imagine what life would be like if I had not read this book and tried it. I consider my son potty trained...he is just not trained "not" to use his diaper yet. The best part...he LOVES sitting on the potty. He is always happy and smiling while looking at himself in the mirror. Diaper free completely is not for me, but you owe it to yourself and your baby to be open to the possibilities. Kids don't have to run around at 3 years old in diapers because we "trained" them that that is where they "should" potty. Of course the diaper manufacturers don't want you to know this!
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.
