Nov. 29, 2006 Vaccinations
Vaccinations.... this is sometimes a "touchy" subject, but since it's my blog, it's my chance to say what I want to say! :) I did a lot of research on this subject, (as should you, if you have children!) and did you know that some vaccinations contain:
a) aborted fetal tissue?
b) formaldahyde?
c) aluminum?
d) mercury?
Well, they are, and many horrible things have happened to babies because of adverse reactions to poisons in vaccines. I just read a book called, "Vaccines, Autism and Childhood Disorders: Crucial Data That Could Save Your Child's Life" by Neil Z. Miller, who also wrote, "Vaccines: Are They Really Safe and Effective?" Some of the stories of these parents broke my heart. I recommend reading this book before you consider vaccinating.
Think of it, dear Christian mother - is this something God designed for our children? Then why do we do it? We do it because of pressure, and fear of being labeled as a bad parent, or fear of the unknown, or of what "they" say can happen to unvaccinated children, etc. Well, the time has come to do our own homework. We can't just trust the world's "system", blindly anymore, nor should we ever have in the first place. Dig, research, study! Know what you are doing and the dangers or benefits of it before just "doing it" because "they" say you have to. I didn't even let the doctors put that awful "goop" in my babies' eyes when he was born. Why? Because he didn't need it, and because I didn't want his first glimpses of the world to be hindered by stinging goop in his poor little eyes making everything blury and hard to see! I kept him in the room with me at all times, and if they needed him, I followed to make sure there were no vaccines given. Did I get a lecture? Sure! Did I listen? No way! I know better not to just believe this present medical system in today's world. Check this out

Nov. 29, 2006 I did it....I went cloth!!
To those of you who don't know, just last week I decided to be brave....and try cloth diapering! I have read and read and researched it out, and have decided that it is the best way to diaper all around. Economically, ecologically, and just all around better for the baby. I'll admit, it was scary at first, and I waited until I was pretty much out of disposables to try it so I didn't fall back on them too easily. I had purchased a bundle of (I think they are called Chinese prefolds?) 34 with about 14 total diaper covers (which isn't bad!) I got them on Ebay for only 20 dollars!! (plus shipping) What a deal! I have found that since I have switched, he doesn't LEAK anymore when he does his "superpoo"!! I could have saved several outfits getting stained from wearing disposables, but oh well, live and learn! Also, the Bumpkins diaper covers are GREAT and they are best for the overnighters. They don't leak!! I have to say though, it has been more challenging, because 1) I have to do a load just about every day (even with this many! This boy is a HEAVY wetter!!) and 2) I have to change him a LOT more often. Disposables keep the moisture in so he doesn't get uncomfortable with a few pees in a diaper at one time, but now I have found that he doesn't like having pee in a cloth, because yes, it gets cold! (I wouldn't like it either!) I do like cloth though, I just feel like a better mom for some reason. I am saving tons of money, and it's really not hard! I carry a ziplock freezer bag in the diaper bag when we're on the go for dirty diapers. The next thing I need to do (as soon as I run out of my case of costco wipes) is go cloth wipes. They are much better for babies skin and don't contain harsh chemicals. One other good thing I have noticed is that he doesn't get diaper rashes hardly ever now! That makes me feel good, too. One thing though that I really need is to invest in some really nice AIO's (all -in-ones) so that I can have some good ones for naptime and nighttime. I used to be able to let him go all night without changing him but now I have to change him at every feeding in the middle of the night (which isn't fun when I'm sleepy and he is sleepy!) I've got some bids in on ebay now so we'll see how it goes! I am very happy I made this change. Now I don't have to worry about running out when we are broke (gasp!) and about a lot of other things. Here is a link for faq's about cloth diapering if you are interested Happy diapering!!
