Introduction: The Gift of Gentle Wisdom

I was sitting in my backyard with my new girlfriend enjoying the sunset and the gentle warm air. The August sun dipped behind the trees. My friend and I met last week and immediately felt mutual sympathy. She agreed to come and visit me without hesitation. As we chatted, I admired the clear beauty of her pregnancy. Her rounded shapes definitely showed the expectation of the child; future mom beamed with a serene smile. We talked about the miracle of birth, about the creation of a new life.

As we chatted, my six-month-old son fidgeted in my arms. I stopped in the middle of a sentence. Intuition hinted to me that the baby required my full attention.

I'm sorry, I'm just a minute - I said to my friend. - My son wants to pee.

I wanted to go into the house, but changed my mind and went to the nearby bushes. I took off the baby's pants, put him on and said "ps-ps." At the same moment the child peed. I put on his pants and returned to continue the conversation.

How did you guess? - she exclaimed. - But how is he ... That's funny!

Yes, it's funny, I agreed. - At the same time, it's as easy as feeding a baby when he's hungry.

I didn't even know it was possible, - said a friend, moving her chair closer. - Tell me more.

So, let's start our conversation about the most deep connection- connections between mother and child and about the Natural Hygiene of the Little Ones.

Funny... but usually

People are surprised when they find out that my son stopped using diapers and nappies at 4 months old. It probably seems to them that now he pees and poops at any time in any place, and I wipe after him. It is hard for people to believe that he was aware of his need to "go away" from the very beginning and that we could understand each other on this issue before the child said his first word. Even those who saw with their own eyes how the newborn and I understood each other's signals only exclaimed, “This cannot be!” - and shrugged.

However, it is possible. I can confirm this. Around the world, people in many cultures have never used diapers or diapers. Instead, they relied on the natural rapport between mother and baby—the rapport that makes it possible to raise a child well-groomed and happy, and to keep the house clean. However, few of our contemporaries realize that in our time the same thing can be done - significantly reduce the number of diapers used, or even completely abandon them.

Looking for a natural alternative to diapers, I found that newborns are aware of their need to pee or poop from birth! It's amazing, but they are able to signal to their mother - and they actually ask for their needs - and also respond to the responses of their parents. Listening to your baby's pleas for help peeing or pooping is as natural as breastfeeding him when he's hungry. It also strengthens the bond between mother and baby.

Growing interest in natural life

I wrote this book in response to requests from many, many people who asked me to speak in detail about my experiences. They needed information and support to learn what I call "The Natural Hygiene Method for Little Ones."

Recently I read this book, I found a lot of useful things in it for myself and my child, I was surprised to find that I came to much of what Ingrid writes about more than six months ago. In general, if someone is interested, then under the cut you can read the summary I compiled for the book "Life without a diaper".

P.S. Ingrid Bauer lives in Canada with her husband and three children; writes articles about children, parents and natural lifestyles, and speaks at conferences. Her work has appeared in magazines in Canada, the US, Europe and Australia.

What is Natural Toddler Hygiene?

The Toddler Natural Hygiene Method is a gentle and sensitive way to drop off babies. It is very practical, environmentally friendly and economical. The Natural Hygiene Method can be applied from birth, from the very first days. The method is based on the fact that every newborn child is aware of his need to "do the job". All children understand their needs from birth, give “signals” to adults and are able to control the corresponding muscles if they feel a response from an adult.

Everything happens simply. When the mother sees that the child needs to “do the job”, she takes off his pants and drops him in a comfortable position in a suitable place for this. Instead of potty training a child, adults listen to their child's body language. This makes you more sensitive and responsive, creates a strong inseparable bond adults and baby. Many parents notice that their intuition has increased. To understand your child, to go towards its rhythms is an interesting and tender occupation.

With natural planting, babies do not need diapers. It - ancient practice that has come down to us through the ages. The Natural Hygiene of the Tiny Ones is just part of a natural parenting approach that also includes carrying up to six months, co-sleeping, quick and sensitive response to screaming or crying, and also breastfeeding.

What is the best age to start?

Ideal - in the first days or weeks after birth. In countries with an "outdated" culture, mothers begin to plant babies between birth and three months, in different cultures differently. I advise “modern” parents to start as early as possible. Best to start before the baby is 5 or 6 months old, because then the child will lose control of his secretions due to diapers or diapers.

It is possible to start successfully with older children, but it will take more time, effort and attention. A more subtle approach is needed here.

At what age is it too late to start the natural hygiene method?

There is no definite answer to this question. It depends on the various factors: from the age of the baby, the employment of the mother, from the mutual understanding between the child and the parents. It is also important whether the baby is in the "manual period" (always in the arms of the mother) or is already crawling or walking. Think about how quickly you can change your baby if necessary. Success also depends on whether the child has previously had the experience of “freedom without a diaper”.

Practice suggests that after five or six months it becomes more difficult to start - although everything is possible with a certain perseverance. I still suggest starting early, as early as possible. It is best to start right after birth. With older toddlers, it is important to start softly and progress gradually.

What "signals" does the child give when he wants to go to the toilet?

At all small newborn"signals" are:

  • wriggling, bending of the body,
  • facial expressions,
  • gaze of "inner concentration",
  • pause or freeze in the middle of activity
  • or, conversely, an unexpected burst of activity,
  • persistent gaze directed at an adult,
  • awakening from sleep.

An older child will “signal” as follows: he will approach (creep) to his mother, lead her to the place of the “toilet”, wriggle in his arms, try to get out of the sling or “kangaroo”, get off the bed. Will insistently draw attention to itself, make a "hinting sound", hold on to the genital area, or sit on your hands in the usual position for the toilet. If the child is naked, you can see the movement of the corresponding muscles "below".

In some children, the signals are more pronounced, in others they are less noticeable. The signals also change as the child grows. However, careful observation of the baby will tell you how to recognize the right moment.

Situations in which it is convenient to gradually start planting:

since morning;

- after daytime sleep;

- immediately after feeding or during feeding;

- after a walk

- in the evening;

- just before bedtime;

- when mom is calm;

- when you feel special closeness to your baby;

- when you can lean on the help of another adult.

There are several ways to negotiate with a baby who is not talking yet:

1) Observation of patterns of behavior of the child at the moment when he pees, poops or just asks.

2) "Baby signals or body language".

3) Intuition.

4) "suggestive sound".

You are wrong if:

  • You think you understand your child, but you are trying to get him to pee, because. you think it's time.
  • You are upset or annoyed if the child does not want to “walk”.
  • Do not take into account the signals of the baby, saying unambiguously: "Not now."

In all of the above cases, you do NOT understand your child.

Relax and try a softer approach. intuitive strong connection with a child (as with an adult) never arises by force. Under the influence of rudeness, it only collapses. Everything goes much better when a person relaxes in his inner center and lets go of the desire to control anything.

When is it reasonable to use diapers?

- At first, when you are just studying;

- at night, if the baby does not like to land in the middle of the night;

- during stress and illness of the baby;

- in a situation where you do not have the opportunity to drop off the child for a long time;

- if you are seriously tired.

Ways to increase intuition and strengthen internal connection:

  • Visualize, feel the connection between you and the baby. Remember that this connection exists, it was originally given to all people by nature. You have it. We do not notice it only because we do not try to realize it.
  • Create yourself visual image(it helps a lot). Mentally imagine between you a strong invisible thread, a bright ray of light or a gentle cloud that envelops your entire family.
  • Strengthen your inner connection with other techniques natural care for the child, in addition to disembarkation. It is breastfeeding on demand, gentle carrying, co-sleeping in the family bed, and sensitive response to all the needs of the child. Each of these facets fills your life with a special beauty and enhances your inner intimacy with a newborn.
  • Feel the whole moment when you experience a sincere and lasting spiritual intimacy with a child. Memorize it in every detail and try to repeat it over and over again. Ideally, this should become your constant feeling.
  • Feel your child "here and now." Understand that the child and you are unique, and that your family has its own unique value.
  • Do not be distracted by all sorts of little things that are so rich modern life. You are now responsible for the child; don't waste your time on unnecessary things. People around you need to understand.
  • Contemplate the stars and flowers, try to relax completely. Try meditation, yoga, or special gymnastics like tai chi. Even 5 minutes will help you relax and enter your inner balance.
  • Spend a lot of time in nature, contemplate the beautiful together with your baby. Show your child the sun, stars and moon. Invite dad for company, as well as a brother or sister.
  • Well develop intuition music and drawing. draw your dear little one. Hug your child and dance with him to your favorite music. Sing for an appreciative listener.
  • Try to stop from time to time, stop any activity and close your eyes. FROM eyes closed just try feel what's going on around.
  • Sometimes you seem to hear different voices judging you inside yourself. This is not yours inner voice, in no case. This is not intuition. These are cruel memories that you have accumulated from a long time ago. Ignore them and let them fade into nothingness.
  • Be aware of everything that happens around you without trying to "always be right." Look at the world and don't try to control it or define everything.
  • Be in the present moment. Be where your hands are.
  • Treat yourself gently, with kindness, respect, and love.
  • If you find yourself overly obsessed with "he's out of a diaper!" worry, laugh at yourself with gentle humor.
  • Very important: trust yourself, your instincts and your child. Make it a habit.
  • Remember that it will take a long time to remember and rediscover what generations have forgotten.

About parent-child contact:

- as soon as we begin to show empathy for children, we begin to take more care of ourselves;

- all children are social by nature;

- when we listen to what our heart says, we are on the right path;

- the gift of being good parent is embedded in each of us;

- if the matter is urgent, it must be solved immediately, if not urgent - then a little later (the needs of the child always come first);

- intuition is not fear, it is something opposite to fear - it is deep wisdom;

- (about skin-to-skin contact) imagine that you are holding the hand of a person close to you, dear to you - someone you love for real. Imagine that you are touching each other with your palms - and now imagine that you are both wearing gloves. That's the difference.

On life without diapers:

- Thousands of people are raising children without diapers, it's just that this fact is not covered on TV;

- in the Digo tribe there were kids who were not yet fully trained at the age of 5 months: these are 2 little twin girls and one child with a stomachache (all the rest successfully landed);

- teaching a child at the age of 18 months is even more inconvenient, because the necessary natural reflexes are firmly forgotten;

- we expect from the child that by the age of 2 he already knows how to run fast, talk, know the basics of social etiquette. It is strange that we believe that such a child is not able to control a pair of sphincter muscles;

- as a rule, in different cultures, the average time to start planting is from two weeks to three months;

- American "star" Jane Fonda tells a funny story. Once she traveled in Vietnam with a child who was 2 years old; her son was still in diapers. In Vietnam, a local doctor drew attention to the child. It seemed strange to the female doctor that at that age the boy was still wearing a diaper. She resolutely took off the disposable and dropped the baby off, using a whistling “hint sound”—the same one usually used with newborns. The child "went down", and for two weeks the woman regularly planted him. According to Jane Fonda, they succeeded "9 times out of 10". After that, Jane returned home with her son, and they never resorted to diapers again;

- one American ethnographer once joked that this book would become a bestseller, but only in the USA and some European countries. In other countries of the world, he assured, mothers will not find anything new in it;

- a wise teacher once told the author: “Obstacles are what we see when we look away from the goal.

In case of temporary failures:

- If the baby missed - it's no more scary than if you yourself accidentally broke the plate. Anger, shame, anger are absolutely inappropriate here - you create an atmosphere of your future trust for life;

- remember: the child does not resist YOU PERSONALLY. He (a) only shows that something is going wrong. They use this situation to explain something to you. The child does not have many ways to do something, but he can express his feelings by NOT doing something;

- typical reasons for regression: stress, illness, life changes, the beginning of a new stage in development, excessive excitement of the mother;

Keep a light, cordial atmosphere. Try to drop the child in a different position, give something interesting to the pen;

- sometimes it is easier to bring the potty to the child than to carry the child to the potty.

Basic fundamental law of the method of natural hygiene “First of all, a sensitive response to the needs of the child is important.”

When you are just beginning to learn the Natural Baby Hygiene Method, it is hard for you to imagine that it will ever end. But then came that beautiful day. Your baby has become completely independent! And now he (she) goes to the toilet or potty by himself. You do not need to follow his signals, offer your help, make a “hinting sound”, clean, hold or whistle ... Yes, now you don’t even know when this happens! And for some reason you feel sad. And, perhaps, you will look with nostalgia at the sweet old times, when you and your child were on the same wavelength and so tenderly held him in your arms ... You will remember your mistakes, I assure you, only with humor. Learning to understand your child, you have become unusually close to each other. Now you may think: how to maintain this close and tender trust? How not to destroy soul connection? Now for you there is nothing more precious than this love, affection and understanding.

The basic principles remain unchanged.

  • Respond quickly to your child's requests
  • Learn to live together, collectively, and achieve goals together.
  • Appreciate the beauty of the moment, "here and now." Don't get distracted by the little things.
  • Keep intimacy, warmth and trust.
  • Gentle touches work wonders.
  • Appreciate friendship, relationship. Be sensitive and responsible.
  • Be above the little things. Don't get stuck if you fail.
  • Trust your children and yourself.
  • Strive for mutual respect mutual understanding and communication.
  • Keep in touch with the rhythms of nature.
  • Trust in your intuition. Try to look for answers in yourself, do not rush to the "experts".
  • No product can replace the warmth of a mother's soul.
  • Respect human body. Understand it and love it. Achieve self-understanding.
  • Trust your child's abilities. Believe in its possibilities.
  • Live sustainable quiet life. Do not try to buy everything, leave time for the main thing.
  • And keep the courage to do what you intuitively think is right, even if logic says otherwise.

Ingrid Bauer. Life without diapers. To this opus, which was very enthusiastic because of the first experiences of the first motherhood, I would like to add "Total". I mean, now my son is four years old, and it's time to sum up my efforts to transfer yesterday's baby, which began at the age of 2.5 months.

Not to face such an adult man to walk under him!

Benefits of life without diapers

I have to admit that a couple of Ingrid Bauer's positive prophecies have come true.

  1. Mutual understanding has been reached. Viktoralekseich, long before the year, began to groan meaningfully and look into my eyes, thereby demonstrating a growing desire to visit the restroom. There were fewer and fewer "misfires" in the form of puddles on the floor, and I can count on my fingers all the days when big children's surprises happened in my pants. He comes up and asks insistently and demandingly: they say, carry it, mother, there is no strength to endure! Viktoralekseich’s requests to take him to the toilet are so obvious to me that it sometimes becomes surprising why others don’t understand “what is he whining about”. But the daughter-in-law surrounding our child cannot be passed on in 20 years, so God would be with them. But, as Ingrid promised, mutual understanding with her son is more than enough. More than that, I clearly, to the minute intuitively even without Viktoralekseich’s signals (children can “play too hard and forget to ask”), that right now we need to lead. Sometimes it seems to me that our, pardon the high syllable, bladders somehow communicate - so I I touch son's need for the toilet. Perhaps, however, many mothers feel the same way, and Ingrid Bauer with "her" planting has nothing to do with it. I can’t say this just because 95% of my moms I know completely prefer to solve baby hygiene issues with diapers. And God forbid me to condemn them for it. I just want to “check watches” with someone, and for some reason there are very few like-minded people in this matter. In summary, the sense of the necessity of timed planting develops to animality. BUT! Mom, like a child, can “play too much” - get carried away with household chores, chatting with a neighbor, or urgently writing a blog post that has matured in her head. And then misfires in a small way still happen, sinful. Without lyrics, every day I wash now from 0 to 2 "spoiled" children's panties per day.

    “I don’t know, posons, I generally like it without panties!”

  2. Timely refusal of diapers. Three weeks ago, we finally gave up diapers. At all. Let me remind you that I used them at night because of sleeping under the air conditioner and the fear of catching a wet baby in a few minutes. Complete elimination of cellulose helpers modern mom evoked fear in me: is it really necessary to get up many times at night to land. Is the child going to sleep wet, and all that. In fact, everything turned out to be just utterly impossible. I put a cloth-based diaper under the ass and, already sleeping, I equip the good old flannel diaper 27 * 27. I would never have thought that it would come in handy, but from the time of infancy, one accidentally lay around, surviving even from Thailand. Before going to bed, we certainly visit the toilet, and incidents happen extremely rarely - once every 3-4 nights. Even if they happen, I take off the diaper, remove the oilcloth from under the child, and until the morning the round-bottomed little one snores peacefully - dry and contented. It turns out that at the age of four, kids already go to the toilet at night, like healthy adults - no more than once, and even then not every night. If I manage to hear Viktoralekseich's pre-toilet grumbling, I get up and carry him out. But at night we are not very good at this: a man is against going to the toilet, give him a breast immediately after waking up. And he protests loudly, and because of the peculiarities of our temporary in Sihanoukville, I am forced to protect the sleep of overly sensitive neighbors ...

    "Madame! I promise without embarrassment, they taught me ... "

By the way, along with the rejection of diapers, I took another serious step - after a break of a year, Viktoralekseich sleeps separately from us. To do this, I had to improvise a little, because separate sleep on the GW can become tiring for. And we managed to avoid super efforts ... But there are a couple of neutral consequences for me personally of the natural hygiene of newborns, but most will probably consider them shortcomings in the Ingrid Bauer system or my personal mistakes. To which they have every right. But I don’t feel sorry - interpret my experience to the best of your worldview, and without objectivity and honesty, this entire blog would not be worth a hundred. Torn…

What Ingrid Bauer and I were silent about


In summary, now I am grateful to myself a year ago and unforgettable for having decided to try. The life of a mother is now becoming easier even without diapers, pampers, on her conscience - calmly in front of her son, and in family budget- minus $ 15 for a month, about the cost of a pack of Pampers in Sihanoukville.

As before, I do not consider the disembarkation of babies a panacea, as before, I do not impose our lifestyle in matters of parenthood. But still, I wish every mother to experience the satisfaction that I feel from time to time in connection with the many months of natural hygiene of our baby. I worked hard right after birth, when I had much more strength than now, and now it’s very useful important question with the "toilets" is resolved thoroughly and, in my opinion, favorably. You can download Ingrid Bauer's book "Life Without Diapers" in PDF for free.

With the wishes of every mother and child the most at ease and natural parenting and childhood, sincerely yours, mother Marta.

margarita/ 05/11/2018 I didn’t read the book, but I read the reviews and I’ll say this: I planted the baby on the pelvis from 2 weeks. They didn’t refuse diapers - just have a minute - held it, no, it means nothing to worry about. By the age of 2 months, my mother decided to seriously start planting and literally “trained” the child to pee and poop on the pelvis. At 6 months I started pottying him. And what do you think? From early landings, zero sense. He did not begin to meaningfully pee and poop into the pot. He also didn't start asking. And by the year he doesn’t recognize the pot at all and stubbornly doesn’t want to sit on it (whatever pots they didn’t buy). My conclusion: everything has its time. Pampers are just a fabulous invention. Many mothers need to do a lot of things besides the child: cook, clean, wash, stroke ... and if not the first child and there are also older ones, play with someone, do homework, etc. To plant or not is a personal matter for everyone. But those mothers who are ready to be on duty in the bathroom for days are probably not burdened with household chores. And arrogant persons from the ranks of "diapers are so harmful, you are lazy" are enraged. Keep your opinions to yourself and don't talk about those whose skins you haven't worn.

Julia/ 10/17/2017 Too long, chewed up and a lot of "I": me, me, me, me, me ... Already infuriates

Anna/ 06/5/2017 I am a lazy mother. And I'm too lazy to pump my son with so-called colic for three hours. Most children do not have colic, but simply want to go to the toilet or gases have gathered. And in a month, not all children are able to cope with this. Therefore, it is easier for me to drop off the baby "in a big way" than not to sleep for half the night. And “in a small way” we often get it on a diaper, because I don’t have time to keep track, and my son reports in half the cases only after the job has already been done.
We started disembarking at 3 weeks, when tummy problems appeared and we drank espumizan for several days, almost to no avail. Now the son does not recognize diapers and understands well when he is wet, well, he only poops in the right place :) He is 3 months old.
My nephew, who is 3 months older than our son, has had tummy problems since birth. C-section, after which there were problems with the microflora, and then I also had to take antibiotics, then iron preparations. As a result, op for half a day and midnight. They tried to drop poop from 5 months looking at younger brother. I began to sleep better. Although the rest of the time they always wear diapers.

Tonya/ 06/3/2017 I have not read the book. She began to hatch the child as soon as she was discharged from the hospital. The child is 20 days old, today 5 times in a small way, 1 time in a big way it turned out to be dropped off. it is clear from the child that he will begin to write. At night, while we sleep in diapers, to be honest, I want to sleep peacefully. At night 4-5 hours in diapers, change once a night. I want to read a book, maybe I will understand my daughter even more

Tata/ 9.10.2016 Bullshit. I read this book while pregnant. And I also thought that I would be the “heroine mother” of a child without diapers to raise.
After experiments on a child in the first month, such diaper dermatitis that you never dreamed of. You can say that I am a lazy mother. If you do not know, then in the first months the child is written 12 times a day. It's just pissing! And he also poops. And you need to eat, sleep, or at least go to the toilet.
Suitable for moms who have nothing to do and want to add drive to life.
As for me, this is just a desire to play the mother of a heroine and stupidly save on diapers. Hiding behind the fact that it is "harmful" and so on.
According to the pediatrician (candidate of medical sciences)
Pampers have not only made our lives easier, but since the invention of diapers, the complaints and treatment of diaper dermatitis have practically disappeared.
My child is very sensitive skin. We use expensive Japanese diapers (only they fit). I don't want to experiment anymore and save on my child.

And always surprised by the comments of mothers about pads, that it is so uncomfortable and all that. I would like to ask: "Are you going all day with the same one?" Pads need to be changed every time you go to the bathroom! And diapers need to be changed every 2 hours!

Daria/ 09/20/2016 I read the reviews and was surprised. What lazy moms. Diapers are comfortable, but not good at all. The less chemicals, the healthier the child. The book is very useful and natural. Has a place to be.

Natasha/ 09/09/2016 Girls, as I understand it, the book talks about early incubation and all that. I never understood what kind of nonsense this is! stand for hours at the sink/basin piss piss piss! I don’t have more chores around the house. I’m ready to live in the bath if only the child pissed in a basin! If children don’t understand at all that they want to use the toilet for at least a year and a half, they don’t feel that bladder full.scientifically proven fact! Yes, they begin to worry before they leave, but these are some seconds, you will understand this even without a book. And then you just need to have time to run to the bath. And what about the fact that they themselves realize and understand what a pot is and what needs to be done in it. I don't think that month old baby it is valid. And even a year old. You torture children, develop reflexes in them, write write - you have to piss, right now. And then the children themselves cannot go to the toilet until there are conditions, until the mother says hello. and if my child is not around the clock in a diaper (this is me, for that village that will be throwing tomatoes right now). Read better articles about how harmful these incubations are.

Pirozhenko/ 03/09/2016 Everyone looks smart. Pads are not allowed. Well, don't use pads at all.
They used rags before, it was more convenient, right? For rags the future is laying fu fu fu. And for tampons in general there can be no question, they are even more harmful. They are inside.)

Maria/ 12/14/2015 It really works. And it brings joy to both mom and baby)) And how much pride in your child that he is so small and already so smart!))) We land from 1 month. Pampers are just a walk. And then we come dry.
The easiest way is to put the baby in the crib, put the bottle in, turn on the mobile, let him have fun for three hours until the pump is overflowing !! The main thing is that mom does not interfere with enjoying motherhood!

Lydia/ 11/23/2015 Wow! The book is available for free. It's a sin not to read and not to try. The benefits are undeniable! I am so glad that I can benefit from the experience of successful mothers, a huge thanks to them.

Tanya/ 09/21/2015 I plant a baby from 2 months. Poops only on the basin - asks, is naughty. And pee when they get it. We put on pammers only in cold weather outside. This book is helpful and inspiring!

Irina/ 01/11/2015 Before pregnancy, I also thought that diapers were bad and convinced everyone that I would do without them. True, I did not know about this book at that time and was going to just wash the diapers. And now I am a mother of twins, two wonderful girls. We are 9 months old and we are in diapers. Recently I started to sit on the potty after sleep, walks, before a night's sleep and during the day, how I feel. At the same time, we continue to walk in diapers. I'm terribly interested in how realistic it is to do these landings on a basin, and even at night with two babies

submariner/ 07/05/2014 cinnamon and why did the submariners not please you? what are they doing here anyway? found extreme

Maria/ 07/04/2014 Asya, where is the commerce here? :)) Diapers - this is commerce :)))

cinnamon/ 06/27/2014 Submariners pollute the planet - yes! Alas and ah - zaserayut with a bang! But I hope that you don’t wear pads yourself, mother viper, because they decompose in the same way for centuries.

Mila/ 8.05.2014 Thank you for this book. I plant the baby from 2 weeks. There are misses, of course, but I don’t set out to make sure that all pies fall into the basin. It’s just easier for me (I don’t wash it) and for the child (I don’t lie in wet pants). Dear Moms, do not be afraid of the book - everything is very easy, and the essence is already stated on the first pages.

Guest/ 01/13/2014 the book is not real for all mothers. Definitely not for those who have severe postpartum depression and the child hangs on his chest for days - if he is also planted on a basin at night, you don’t want to live at all ..

Glory/ 7.11.2013 Lazy mom's last comment! Which does not think about the health of children! Any pediatrician will tell you about the "benefits" of diapers .... The book really shows and teaches! Just don't be lazy! My friend started to teach her son from 3 months. Now he is almost 2. He has not written since 3 months. On the plane, he asks to go to the toilet and already goes to the toilet!

Yanina/ 10/23/2013 those who write that diapers are convenient, put on an adult diaper or just a thick pad and try to walk around! I can’t wear pads at all, and you push your child into this muck! Have you studied the greenhouse effect? from own urine and faeces, there is overheating genital organs, boys will have huge problems, because the testicles cannot be overheated at all, and diaper girls with school age problems in the form of candidiasis, vaginitis and other rubbish. diapers and pads for those who were not taught hygiene
