Washable diapers and motor development of children

[yzzhhaa]

Hello, I am the mother of a 11 month old baby girl. From birth she has been washable diapers. So far everything was going well .. but since yesterday she is looked after by a childminder who told me that if my daughter did not move on all fours and did not walk, it was because of the diapers which were too big. Personally I weigh that each child at his own pace and that she is still young. But I would have liked to have an opinion. Can washable diapers cause retardation in motor development?

Thank you to enlighten me. and I hope not, because I do not want to switch to polluting disposable diapers, irritating to the buttocks and dear ..

see you soon

Hi Yza (it's shorter), your post can be confusing on a forum focused on technique like this one. By engine development, I first thought of a thermal engine. And then you know, we're not diaper specialists.
But hey, I will still answer you based on my experience as a dad. My daughter walked at 14 months and almost never walked on all fours before, while she was wearing disposable diapers (not good and expensive). So cool, relativized, bullshit on educating children, ways of doing this or that, you can hear tons, sometimes contradictory. So who is right, who is wrong? mystery. What is certain is that each child is unique and therefore different from the others. It evolves at its own pace, period. So if she has to walk at 4 months, well it will be like that. The goal is not to make it a beast of competition is not it?
Keep your diapers washable, it's a very good ecological approach and will know, given the shit we found in disposable diapers 4/5 years ago, your daughter may thank you for escaping an illness linked to the products present there.

Hi ysha. Technically I would be in a bad position to answer you. But one thing is certain, it is that our elders did not know the disposable model. How did they raise their children? How were they raised themselves? Do you consider them more bells than our generations? In all, me, not ... Go a month late, 2 months? So what ? Especially since nothing is less certain !!!

ah my opinion the layers have nothing to do with it.
on the other hand I agree with bham, giving up disposable diapers is a good ecological gesture and a good gesture for your child: disposable diapers require energy to be manufactured (in petroleum plastic) transported and finally incinerated , moreover most irritations in babies are due to diapers (because plastic).

a solution: swaddling clothes (therefore in fabrics). after the pblm it is to clean them. you have to get rid of the garbage or compost material and then wash the laundry. machine washing does not come out top top, the method I know is the washing machine (http://www.tout-electromenager.fr/appa_ ... st_gem.php): your swaddles come out white from white.

Silly question: is it so important that the washable diapers come out of the pristine white of the washing machine?

Not only can we easily hide them under other skills, but in addition their role is precisely to get dirty ... so pkoi want to have them nickel?

Because according to an old cliché, it's only clean if it's white

Really?

So you have to make washable nappies ... black ...

well not black !!!

pink for girls and blue for guys

but the best is naked in the garden and a wipe of the sponge, the layer just for the "presentation" in "society"

for 2 kids raised on a boat I used less than 200 diapers.

I agree with everything he said to himself: and what's more, there is no shame in not walking at 11 months !!
Each baby has its own rhythm, what the hell!
It's more the nanny who wants to impose her point of view!

thank you all for your answers! I will let my chip go at its own pace and ignore the remarks of my nanny .. anyway I did not want to go to disposables. but as i was worried i wanted an opinion ..

in any case for those who do not know the washable diapers I recommend it, not only for the economy but also to reduce our waste! and of course for the buttocks of our little ones!
