Diaper Free: The Gentle Wisdom of Infant Hygiene - Softcover

Most new parents think of diapers as a smelly, expensive, and unavoidable necessity. The good news is that itÂ's possible—even practical—to raise your kids without diapers. In Diaper Free!, Ingrid Bauer shows how you can:

* Save thousands of dollars
* Reduce landfill waste (single-use disposable diapers are responsible for one third of the non- biodegradable waste in landfills)
* Avoid diaper rash
* Use the “Four Tools for Diaper Freedom” to enhance your relationship with your baby and deepen communication.

Based on extensive research, case studies, and the authorÂ's own experience, Diaper Free! is a warm and helpful companion at every stage, from the first magical days of your babyÂ's life, to complete toilet independence. BACKCOVER: “The true solution to the diaper dilemma. . . . Packed with information, examples, and support. A valuable addition to the library of any pregnant or new mother.”
