The Tale of an Exhausting Diaper Change – *gross warning* | #clothdiapers #parenting #fail
This morning was an absolute mess! I was getting a little work done when Jett woke up. I always like to try to nurse him for a few minutes and play with him to get his little "good mood" juices flowing before I change him out of his nighttime diaper. Normally, he waits until mid morning or later to poop, but twice this week, he's pooped before I was able to change him out of his nighttime diaper. No biggie, right? Ha. Breastfed poop is more runny than other poop, so it's like he has diarrhea all the time (except he doesn't),…
Do you breastfeed in public? | #breastfeeding #nip (as in Nurse in Public)
I am pro breastfeeding. I am pro breastfeeding in public. I've always been cool with anyone breastfeeding in public, and I used to have little cards with the Texas law on them that I'd hand out to women I'd see nursing in public, just in case they ever get into a situation where they're asked to stop or leave a public area. Something I've probably mentioned before is that I've even breastfed my babies at Astros games with 40,000 people around and no one had a clue. In Texas, you're allowed to nurse your baby anywhere you're allowed to be…

Shaving Wool Diaper Covers – Great Tools for Shaving Wool | #clothdiapers
We all want our wool to look nice. I know I do. Knitted and crochet wool diaper covers, pants, and shorties have a tendency, overtime, to fuzz and (what we call) "pill". Basically, this means that the wool will become fuzzy and small pilly balls will form. So, when you'd like to take the little one out in wool, or if you're ready to put your wool up for sale, these pills aren't as appealing as nice and pretty wool. Does this mean that your wool is no longer usable and will never look nice again? NO! There are a couple…
Rainbow Light Allergy Rescue Review | #vegan #glutenfree #allnatural
Half of my family suffers from allergies. Andy, Kylie, and Hawk all three have a hard time with the weather and season changes. Kylie is the only one who has allergy and sports induced asthma along with it, and it really is no joking matter. Not too long ago, I ran across Rainbow Light Allergy Rescue. I had no idea they had relief for allergies, as I have only used them for prenatal vitamins. I love this brand, because it's herbal, planted based, and chock full of other vitamins and nutrients that addresses everything related to allergies, and doesn't just…
Blissful Booty Perfect Pockets Review & Giveaway | #ClothDiaper (ends 7/6)
One of the very first diapers that I ever received when Jett was born was a Blissful Booty AIO newborn diaper. It was also the first diaper that was ever put on his bottom. In hindsight, I wish I would have asked the photographer to get a photo of his diaper, rather than waiting until he had his clothes on! I've thought about this for eight months! Now that he's eight months old the newborn diapers have been passed on to a new baby and I am now able to get a good fit on one size diapers. With Braxton…
I Refuse To Practice Outside the Scope of a Doula | #safebirth #birth #pregnancy #doula
I am an asset to the women in my community. I am a doula. I am a great doula. Five years ago, when I decided to become a doula, I'm not sure if I was under a false illusion about what the role of a doula is, or if things have just changed so much in the past five years that I'm behind the times. When I became pregnant with Jett, I decided to continue to be involved in the birthing and natural parenting community, however, I chose not to attend any births because I did not feel that I would be able…
