Jannaeus poop and cloth diapers

Hi,

I am happy to announce that Jannaeus knows when he is about to poop! Yep, He just suddenly say Ki, which the last syllable of the Hebrew word for poop: Kaki.
He still doesn’t get whole concept of what he should do about it. We, of course, run to bring him the pot and free him out of the diaper and cloths. What end up with Jannaeus poop somewhere in the house.

The pot? Well, Jannaeus also knows when he need to pee (he says Pee, which is last syllable of the word pipi. to pee in Hebrew. Or is he learned English already… :-). And like every guy he enjoying of aiming the pee to the pot, when he remember he should aim at it.  So when he got him of the diapers and he remembers there is a pot, he tried to aim his pee, but what gets out is the poop 🙂

He is still a long way from the chamber pot, but it seems like a long way from there. According to the nurseries, it will take around 8 months for Jannaeus   (Atzva is on week 21 and 19 weeks to go, about 5 months). On the other hand, they say that kids that use cloth diapers, get control over their pee and poop faster than kids with disposable diapers. So who know?

Well now, when we are about to have to babies with diapers on the same time, we have to think what we are about to do about the cloth diapers. Basically it seems that we have stash large enough to support both of them  with cloth diapers, but it won’t going to be easy (then again, when is something easy about parenting 🙂

After using cloth diapers for a year and half, I can say it is easier than what you will probably think. I cannot real tell you how much extra work it is: It will probably look a lot for one that use disposable diapers, but since we use the cloth diapers from day one it just another thing to do. There are periods of time, that we use disposable diapers – in case he get red butt that need to be taken care with extra strong pastes.

Take care
Gad
