When my son was born, I wanted to make sure I used the best products for him and on him, especially, when it came to baby wipes. These were going to touch the most sensitive areas of his body, so I wanted them to be the best on the market. I tried a few brands ...
There are so many diaper ointments out there to choose from for that awful time when your little bundle of joy turns into a screaming maniac when you touch his little bottom because he has diaper rash. So what do you choose? There are several ointments that we have tried that worked with varying degrees ...
When my daughter was first born, she was a little bundle of peaches and cream with a shock of red hair that made me grin. Within weeks, it was obvious that she also had hypersensitivity to many things. She needed hypoallergenic formula, and had to use either cloth or herbal disposable diapers. I learned quickly ...
Your baby’s bottom is enclosed in an almost air-tight, warm, moist, dark environment 24/7. Add too that the chemicals in disposable diapers and wipes used on baby’s bottom and what comes out of baby.

When our new baby came into the picture, there was a lot to keep track of. Some parents might be able to just “wing it,” but I wasn’t one of those moms. I do much better when I am able to write things down and keep track of them over time. When I created an ...
When I tell people I’m the first-time parent of a five-month-old baby, they often inquire with a knowing smirk, “How are you sleeping?” Much to their disbelief, I happily answer, “Great!
