Bye - bye Diapers

There are several documents that refer to the special clothing used for the babies of ancient times. Milkweed leaf wraps, animal skins, and other creative natural resources, a far cry from today's disposable diapers. The Egyptian, the Aztec, the Romans, and many others, who left documentation of their day to day activities, mention its use. Its need covers all segments of the population, from princesses to beggars.

This is one of the very first items that distinguished man from animals, believe it or not! ; Infants have been "wrapped in swaddling bands" in many European societies since antiquity. Swaddling bands were strips of linen or wool that were wrapped tightly around each limp and then crosswise around the body (like many Yoga advocates still do in India). In Elizabethan times, babies were treated to a fresh diaper only every few days. Innuits, an Eskimo people, placed moss under sealskin. adapted from Richer Investment Consulting Services

For almost a week, my son Arsya has said “bye –bye’ to his diapers. I think he got trauma with hairy worm bitten. About a week ago, he was playing with ‘mama’ his grandma, by accident, mama found hairy worm and showed to him, my son get very surprise cause it was his first time to see hairy worm, about 30 minutes later, his body became itchy, got many red spot (Biduren, Javanese) and swollen . GOD! He was fussy all day through. Then his baby sitter swiped him with petrol to avoid another red spot. Take a bath and smeared with Caladine Lotion. Alhamdulillah, thanks GOD, he became calm down, and sleeping.

Starting that moment, he did want to wear diaper anymore, he feel very scare when he saw his penis swollen. He thought that the diapers caused his penis swollenJ. We just happy, to see it. My son getting mature, at his age, night sleeping without diapers and urine expelled in his bed is a quantum leap in his mental and physical development.
My additional task is binging him in the middle of the night and ask him to pipi. For first one and two days it is hard job, and he was objection by saying : please bunda no…
Thanks Arsya you are a really smart boy! Alhamdulillah Ya ALLAH, for giving us this wonderful gift. So does kamila.
