Dr. miriam stoppard (rolls eyes)

She is asking for it! ...

:shock: Oh dear! Thats very outdated information though, I wonder if she knows anyone with a cloth wearing baby or just going from her own experience from the 1950's when perhaps terry squares were bulky?

I used terry squares on my dds, and my mum used them on me and they were never so bulky that they were held back. I walked at 9 months and my dds were all walking between 8 and ten months, so her assertion that it makes walking harder is simply wrong. DS1 wore disposables and he hit his milestones the same as his sisters and he was slightly slower than Kerr so she hasn't researched her findings properly.

Yes I did used to soak them in nappisan though, as did everyone then, but with newer biological powder and automatic washing machines to clean the nappies thoroughly it's not needed any more.

Oh well shes just a stupid bag then who knows nothing I was giving her the benefit of the doubt!

... Or more likely, she was rubbish at folding nappies back then

I cant believe how ill informed one person can be. Surely if you dont know anything dont say anything either!

BTW I hope it was the recycling her book made it into

FWIW my dd walked at 10months old in her "bulky" cloth nappies. DS1 who was in disposables didnt do it til 12 months surely its up to the individual baby!

definatly the recycling bin

I had a mini rant about this today. a friend had two books by this woman (tho not this kinda book, they were kids learning books, colours counting etc)
stupid misinformed old bag

she's very old fasioned. maybe in the 1950's she was great but she just reminds me of the MIL!
