How you ask?

Just leave us a comment. Tell us your worst diapering story. Or pregnancy story. Or heck, any story at all. The funniest anecdote will be the winner!

Everyone has a story, but to break the ice, here goes:

My little Miss M was 2 months old, and we had just moved into our new house. As in the day before “just”. So, in addition to “new mom tired”, I had “just moved every frigging thing we own tired”.

I struggled into the nursery for the 3 a.m. feeding, a regular part of our routine at this point, and managed to find the crib and get us both settled into the rocking chair. I nursed our little girl, and didn’t even fall asleep in the process! I was so proud. I then changed her diaper, put her back to bed, and stumbled back to my own wonderful pillows.

Or so I thought.

In the morning, I awoke to a screaming baby, and a laughing husband. He was already up and had beaten me to the nursery, where he found M’s clean diaper — on the changing table! I had removed the dirty diaper, and zipped her back up into her blanket sleeper without putting the new diaper on!

Needless to say, there was a very wet and unhappy baby, and a mom facing an extra load of laundry that day.

I know you can beat my lame story, so lets hear it!

The winner will be the story that makes Jen and I laugh the most. Our decision is final. One entry per person, you have until 3 p.m. Wednesday to enter.  The contest is open to residents of the U.S., and those the U.S. mailing addresses.  The prize is one pink BumGenius 3.0 one-size diaper, Go ahead, make us laugh!

Cloth Diapers – BumGenius 3.0

Welcome back! As promised, we’ve made the switch to cloth diapers. We’re two weeks into the switch now, and I’m confident to start my reviews. I’ve tried a variety of diapers, purchased from a few different sources.

The important thing though, is that I’m not the only one who tried ‘em. My husband did too! He was very much opposed to the cloth diapering idea, thinking it would be a lot harder. His big request was that it be “as easy as disposables”.

Well, we started with the BumGenius 3.0, available from Cotton Babies.
