19:02:54 mod_Cuddlebaby I'm looking for your email with your address in it  <smirk>
19:02:59 mod_Cuddlebaby cuz I promised you a diaper...
19:03:05 mod_Cuddlebaby would you rather have a cover or a diaper?
19:03:19 VJ lol
19:03:50 VJ tell me again though
19:04:08 VJ a diaper you can use regularly at home but cover for going out?
19:04:11 VJ i guess a diaper? :D
19:05:01 mod_Cuddlebaby :)
19:05:17 mod_Cuddlebaby you may need to cover a regular diaper all the time....
19:05:31 mod_Cuddlebaby unless it's VERY hot and you don't mind changing diapers every single time they pee.
19:05:55 VJ sorry i didn't response fast - was in your site
19:06:10 VJ yea ok
19:06:24 VJ and a soaker/wool would be good as a cover right?
19:06:25 mod_Cuddlebaby yeah, see any prints your particularly love?
19:06:29 VJ diaper is what im trying to figure out -
19:06:35 VJ ok looking at that part
19:06:38 VJ was in other places
19:06:47 mod_Cuddlebaby right, some have covers they call 'soakers' which are usually wool and require extra care
19:07:21 mod_Cuddlebaby like no laundering and you have to lanolize it....
19:07:30 VJ which part do you want me to look at
19:07:43 VJ i was in the breastfeeding - off the point - but i didn't get the chance to do much but like to learn
19:07:44 mod_Cuddlebaby how old is your little one>?
19:08:00 VJ 2
19:08:06 mod_Cuddlebaby to do what?  breastfeed?  I can help with that too if you ever need it  :)
19:08:13 mod_Cuddlebaby okay then probably a large....
19:08:24 VJ thats why i asked if no cover at home - am going to try to potty train him - 25 pounds
19:08:41 mod_Cuddlebaby yeah going coverless is  great for potty training....
19:08:47 mod_Cuddlebaby hey mine was 2 in Feb
19:08:52 VJ breastfeeding is to try to influence others to do that - especially when he ended up with bad conspitation and once in a while still does
19:09:04 VJ yea? mine in April
19:09:40 mod_Cuddlebaby oh ick appears mycomputer is trying to lock up again, can't even get to my site!
19:09:59 VJ really????
19:10:03 mod_Cuddlebaby still nursing him?
19:10:07 VJ no
19:10:13 VJ only got to do it like a month or something
19:10:22 VJ visitors and stress came around -
19:10:28 mod_Cuddlebaby oh, sorry misunderstood.
19:10:30 VJ so i couldn't focus with routine
19:10:32 VJ no problem
19:10:38 mod_Cuddlebaby you are not pregnant?
19:10:40 VJ i just love learning things :D
19:10:42 VJ NO! whew
19:10:45 mod_Cuddlebaby that's WAY cool!
19:10:54 mod_Cuddlebaby I have the hardest time with people unwilling to learn.
19:10:57 mod_Cuddlebaby I do too!
19:11:08 mod_Cuddlebaby my dad is that way, he is educating himself ALL the time....
19:11:24 mod_Cuddlebaby so  nursing caused constipation?
19:11:59 mod_Cuddlebaby I'm also trying to print willow mom's address and it won't even do that!!
19:12:05 mod_Cuddlebaby glad the chat window is still working.
19:13:10 mod_Cuddlebaby you are still here right?
19:13:21 mod_Cuddlebaby have you given sewing your own diapers a go yet?
19:13:31 mod_Cuddlebaby do I sound australian?
19:14:17 mod_Cuddlebaby *bleep*
19:14:24 VJ oh sorry!
19:14:27 mod_Cuddlebaby oh good!
19:14:34 mod_Cuddlebaby I was justa bout to restart...
19:14:39 mod_Cuddlebaby my email's now no longer working.
19:14:43 VJ that s cool your dad's like that!
19:14:53 VJ my mom too THO>>>>>>> my mom stays modern""
19:15:08 VJ no the formulas caused conspitation or at least that is what I think
19:15:08 mod_Cuddlebaby yeah that's where I get it, last time I was there he was reading a MATH book!!  at 58!
19:15:24 mod_Cuddlebaby yeah that's what I thought
19:15:29 VJ visitors then one person i had to kick out of my place - distraction then bec of her my cat left the place
19:15:30 mod_Cuddlebaby it's the iron that's in them
19:15:39 mod_Cuddlebaby artificial iron is VERY constipating...
19:15:44 VJ and all that so i couldn't keep up - not fair to my baby you know? especially when i was very low on milk
19:15:50 VJ definitely on the iron part
19:15:55 mod_Cuddlebaby I refuse to take it in pregnancy and get blackstrap molasses pills instead.
19:16:28 mod_Cuddlebaby was she mean to your cat?
19:16:30 VJ willow's mom is Jenn (that one?)
19:16:40 mod_Cuddlebaby yeah.
19:16:54 VJ really?
19:16:56 VJ molasses
19:17:00 VJ yes she was VERY mean
19:17:07 VJ and keep on telling me what to do
19:17:15 mod_Cuddlebaby oh ick.
19:17:17 VJ the father's  mother - but they both are out
19:17:18 VJ now
19:17:26 VJ it's cool and nope i haven't started on the diapers
19:17:29 mod_Cuddlebaby everyone should conform to the new mom's wishes.....
19:17:32 VJ i should - still looking at patterns
19:18:14 mod_Cuddlebaby I talked to a new mom in my town today....gave up on breastfeeding and instead is pumping and bottlefeeding...had to hold my tongue but told her what a great job she is doing....
19:18:40 mod_Cuddlebaby turns out she was having to buck her mom recently telling her what to do and really doesn't want anyone else telling her what to do...
19:18:45 mod_Cuddlebaby (i'd be nice of course)
19:18:58 mod_Cuddlebaby but still, I was glad I held my tongue.
19:19:23 mod_Cuddlebaby everyone learns at their own pace...
19:19:30 VJ ah
19:19:33 mod_Cuddlebaby it's best to not screw with the natural order of things....
19:19:41 mod_Cuddlebaby all you can do is present the information...
19:19:58 VJ if you are still in touch with her - maybe let her know somehow your experience then offer to inform her whenever and if she wants to try to change some you know
19:20:13 mod_Cuddlebaby yeah.....
19:20:39 mod_Cuddlebaby you know you could always take a pampers and trace it....
19:20:42 mod_Cuddlebaby it's a start....
19:20:58 mod_Cuddlebaby get a cork board and stretch it out and pin it to the board with newspaper underneath.
19:21:11 mod_Cuddlebaby trace and cut....
19:21:12 VJ last part - im not sure what you mean
19:21:18 VJ OH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
19:21:26 mod_Cuddlebaby got it?
19:21:28 VJ was thinking you were talking about breastfeeding still ha
19:21:36 mod_Cuddlebaby oh ouch!!
