I made cloth wipes!
It took about 5 seconds. I just cut/tore an old flannel receiving blanket of my niece's into a bunch of wipe-sized pieces. Then I got them wet. Then I put them in a plastic bag. The end.
I'm going to keep a few pieces aside in case I need to use diaper rash cream. You can't use diaper rash cream with cloth diapers because it messes up the absorbancy, but if you put some on and put a piece of cloth between the baby's skin and the diaper, I hear-tell you are good to go.
Anyway, I the cloth wipes can help maximize my laziness. Now I can toss everything in my wet bag (which is now some kind of washable bag thingy I had lying around) and be good to go.
Also, we finally had a dirty diaper today...no disasters, no huge mess, no stains, nothing. Yay! The whole week-without-a-dirty-diaper thing had me totally freaked out, so I called the doctor, and once again they told me they don't worry until it's been two weeks! Sheesh. I was expecting some kind of interesting story with this one, since I was expecting a huge blowout, the kind that makes me have to bathe us BOTH and redress us both and then find that my baby still has poop on her face. (Not that I would have already experienced this or anything...twice...)
But, nope- no issues! She's just chillin' as usual; eating and sleeping a TON. Having a mega-baby, baby-Hulk, I'm-gonna-bust-outta-my-clothes growth spurt is a lot of work for a little one!
