Potty Training part #1

One hassle about having babies is diapers every where you go with an infant it is probably best to take diapers with you except, if you are just making a quick run somewhere.
I am convinced that people don't know much about potty training and it's impact on the human condition.

It is easy to potty train a child. You can start early with this if you handle it correctly by as soon as you go to your infant in the morning you remove the diaper from their body that they slept all night in.

When yoiur child is able to sit up unassisted start putting them on a child sized potty seat do not keep them on it long just for a minute in the begining, if they do pee in the pot by all means praise them for it. If you make this a happy time for them they will enjoy this time and if they pee one time and you praise them they will try to do it again. Put your child on the potty after every feeding and always praise them if they go but do not hurt their feelings if they don't go it is not a big deal and you do not want them to start fighting you on it if you make a big deal of them not going you will have a fight on your hands. When you use praise when they go they will begin to asociate going to the bathroom with good feelings and it will help them have a sence of control of their own body.

Do not let your child become comfortable in a diaper that is soiled. This makes it much harder to potty train them because it doesn't bother them to be wet after a while if you let them sit for long periods with a dirty diaper. Besides that the longer your child sits in a diaper the more likely they are to get a rash or urinary tract infection. One thing BAD about disposable diapers is the infant does not feel wet in them.

Dispoables ought only be used when traveling but even them it is not really necessary if you have your system down for cloth. I get really angry and offended when I see a disposable diaper lying in a parking lot or on a sidewalk where I am walking. At least start using natural disposables

Diapers and Toilet Paper

It is not sustainable for us to keep cutting down trees for toilet paper and disposable diapers. Especially disposable diapers they are known toxic waste folk especially the diapers of children that have received vaccines or who have been sick . Here is a link on the environmental hazards of disposable diapers.

Johnny Be Good

Johnny Be Good

Sooner or later you'll be in the toilet. What to do in the mean time and where does it all go?
You're sitting in traffic. You're on the freeway. How free are you?Facing you is a line of traffic miles long. American cars. Foreign cars. Truckers. Pissed off. Everyone is pissed off. All of the thousands of people used the toilet this morning. Was it good for them? Was it good for you? Where did it all go? Did it all go? Did you go? How did it go?
The universe is a bowel movement happening. Digesting. Peristaltic wave. Wave bye-bye. Did you look at it. That was inside of you. Wait a minute...When was the last time you had a good bowel movement? You mean it's still inside of you?
Good. Bad. Shower. Toilet. Black. White.
The toilet mind knows only opposites. Duality. The mind eats, digest, shits, is...evererything. Everything we think. Everything we are. Everything we think we are.
However, only in opposites. Do you love this or do you hate that.?
I met a guy the other day I couldn't tell if he loved Fords or hated Chevys. Well maybe he did not so much love one thing as much as he hated something else.
