g diaper update

I love the g diaper. the concept and the look. BUT there are a few things that make me go back to the pampers swaddles.

Pros
  • Good for the environment
  • G covers are cool

Cons
  • Cloggs the toilet
  • its messy when there is poop involved. especially trying to teat the diaper apart when there's poop on it.
  • washing the liner after poop
  • when its on the diaper scrunches in the middle and causes leaks
  • Amianan doesn't sleep long when she's in them.
  • Amianan gets fussy when she's wearing them
  • hard to find at stores
  • you can order on line but the delivery charge is $$
  • takes forever to put on and take out
i guess i have more cons than pros but i think if i gave it more time i will get used to them and so will amianan. i think i'll do it more consistently when we get back from our trip.

Anchorage, Alaska is one of the most beautiful cities I have ever been to!

Amianan at 4 months

Amianan just turned 4 months on Thursday . Rod and I have seen some changes in her already since her 3 month milestone. she totally has a different cry. i miss the newborn cry. =( now its this loud piercing cry with all these tears that roll down her face. she likes to play in her baby Einstein play yard, but lately she would roll over to her tummy and throw up. Then she likes to put her face right on her throw up and smother it all over. YUCK.baby throw up is no joke! it smells like some on just had a hang over and yacked. she's a total rock star already. so, after i nurse her i put her in her swing to settle tummy. she hasn't used that thing all month till last week. i was tired of washing her play yard! i would put her on her swing for a while. sometimes she takes her naps there. her sleeping patterns are getting better too. at 3 months, i would nurse her laying down around 9pm and she would fall asleep. i swaddle her and put her in her crib. she would wake up at ...
