Tushies Gel-Free Diapers Disappoint

Sunday, April 6th, 2008

Since I loved the Tushies Tendercare diapers so much, I was excited to try another product by Tushies, the Gel-Free Diaper. Rather than having the crystals or gel inside the diaper, these are stuffed with cotton, kind of like the gDiapers lining. However, little things ruined the execution for me.

Natural Disposable Diaper Review

Monday, March 17th, 2008

Isabel has had chronic diaper rash, so we have been experimenting with disposable diapers that are more skin-friendly than traditional diapers. We test drove Tushies Tender Care, Nature Babycare, and gDiapers. The good news is her diaper rash is much better, and we don't even need the Beaudreaux's butt paste! The results are in!

Putting Herself to Sleep!

Wednesday, January 25th, 2006

Kate has had two major milestones this week. First, she rolled over on her own, from tummy to back, into a toy and bopping her head quite hard. Poor thing. The milestone I'm most excited about, though, is that she put herself to sleep tonight.

Now granted, she was exhausted. The phone rang after she had been asleep only an hour, and it work her up for two hours. She couldn't get back to sleep and wanted to play. We played and played and I got tired. It was 10 pm and she still hadn't fallen asleep again. My plan was to take my contacts out and then snuggle her to sleep, a proven effective treatment for her.
