Cloth Diapering Tips & Baby Talks

When my 2 girlies were small, as small as 4-5 months old, i would always wore them with traditional nappy during day time and night time with cloth diaper.

This being that i had always soaked the whole pail of nappy and waited till the end of the day then only i started washing all of them in one short….using the washing machine la, of course, else i will be full-dead. Washing in this mode is already half dead, haha!

During night time, before they were changed to cloth diaper,  I would always pee them in the potty so that they would learn to empty their bowel before putting on cloth diaper. Then immediately they woke up in the early morning, i would put them on the potty again to pee. Never, never, let them play in the baby cot and pee one large amount of urine in the diaper ….coz that will end up being a HEAVY WETTER, as we always put it.

During the second month, I would always say ‘ngggg’ (a long one…to resemble the sound of making poo-poo, while lifting the baby’s legs. This is done with my baby lying down. Poo poo always came out at a ‘shootting style. haha! Sometimes ‘spraying’ on my clothes!

But this didn’t went long, coz by 3-4 months, I will be holding little one and let them poo on the little S size potty.

That way, little baby would learn to poo only on potty and eliminate the chance of messing the nappies. Though on some occasions, they did, when bowel calling was too strong and mummy just too slow to bring the potty. haha!

But soon after that, before 1 year old, smart little ones would know that, potty is for poo-poo and poo-poo on nappy is a no-no.

Not that anyone would scold them, but they just disliked the feeling of getting mess all around….just like we adults.
