?What to do with all the baby powder?

[50ftQueenie]

Liam has been the recipiant of many gifts, lots of bath supplies, which is great because he loves to take baths. So what do I do with all the baby powder? Does anyone actually use it on their babies? It's only been two weeks, but I haven't used any on Liam and don't plan to. Do I throw it? Is there another use for it? Does anyone want some of our's?

I never used it unless my DS had a diaper rash, which was maybe 2 times ever It clears it up FAST! I donated the rest to a shelter for battered mothers.

If you garden I have heard sprinkling baby powder on seedlings helps keep the rabits away. Maybe donating it to a local shelter. Not sure what else.

I returned mine to a store and got a gift receipt because I didn't have a bill. Then I bought something useful.

If you frequent the beach at all, it's fabulous for getting wet sand off kiddos! Sprinkle a little on, and the sand just wipes totally off!


Sorry, not in your DDC, just saw this on New Posts.

That's so weird, that was exactly what I was thinking!
It's also good for massages.

I use it when my hair gets too greasy and I'm to lazy to shower. I just sprinkle a little bit(a very little bit since I dye my hair black most of the year) and massage and it soaks up the oil.

I also use it when I get sweaty to make me feel a little drier.

I, like you, have gotten tons from people.

Ummm...........I'm going through tons of it myself at the present. Yep. I'm sweaty. :0

This is really strange and I don't know the reason behind it, but if you ever have an ant infestation problem, you can sprinkle a line of baby powder and they won't cross it. It's pretty temporary, but it totally works....

I use the baby's powder all of the time for myself! (think... under the boobs, between the fat on the top of your legs... AAAHHH... it's heaven!)

You could take it back to a big store like Target or Walmart. They could give you store credit for something you actually want.
