. We do it some with the baby. I mean who doesn't fall asleep nursing a baby at night?
. Hoping in another month I'll go down another size.

Then he proceeded to tell me that he had heard on the radio that they were responsible for the suffocation deaths of infants. I think maybe he was referring to the Consumer Reports article from last month? Has anyone else heard anything about this report? Anyway, I told him that I know that it can (and has) happened but it is generally due to user error. He seemed to accept that pretty much anything can become dangerous if used improperly. But I walked away from that exchange wondering what to think of it. ??? |

Then he wakes up DD continuously by kissing her and hugging her even though we ask him not to touch her when she sleeps. I think its time to set some limits for my sanity.

We have about 5 covers ( my favorite is the super whisper wrap and a blueberry bums cover) and some all in ones. (bum genius) my mom made me a bunch of fitted diapers that we have been using with covers. Every once in a while we will use a prefold and I use prefolds at night with a bum genius for extra absorbency. My mom also made us a few wool covers out of old sweaters and those work really well too. Cloth diapering is not as scary or as hard as I thought it would be. I wash every other day and actually have managed to keep up with the diaper laundry.

I'm still using a sposie at night but eventually I will find some stay dry dipes to purchase. |
: And it only took 3 weeks. Ok, almost 3 weeks, but still. The nurse at the hospital tried to tell me it would only be a few days [I wanted her to trim it cuz it kept catching on things--it was very big and almost fan-shaped]. His belly button still looks moist and a little red.
One day I ended up changing his outfit 3 times cuz of the wetness. I'm hoping once he grows into the next size it will be better. But I think we're going to have an issue with the prefolds cuz he's outgrowing the newborn size but the next size I have seems huge compared to him, so we'll see. I thought maybe it was the cold of the seat, so I've been trying to hover him over the little potty, but he still hollers. Funnily he stops screaming just long enough to start the flow of pee, then resumes. 
I don't want to do something he hates, but he almost always pees if I wait it out a minute or two. I keep hoping he'll adjust.....
