“My husband and I had an agreement. We would share chores, INCLUDING cleaning the bathroom.

So, by God, I dug my proverbial heels in. If he wasn’t going to help me clean those bathrooms, then our-marriage-was-doomed.”
‘Why would I want my babies to use the diaper as a toilet?’ Did I mention I hate cleaning up poopy diapers?’: The method we used to ditch diapers (and avoid potty training) with all 5 of our babies
“A friend posted that they didn’t use diapers – they simply held their baby over the toilet or ground, from birth, and avoided poopy diapers. I thought, ‘I’m in! Where do I sign up?’ When I discovered I was pregnant, I bought a book that explained this phenomenon that could save me from All. The. Mess. It just felt right.

‘My daughter handed me a magnet. ‘Mama, I ate one of these!’ Her twin quickly confirmed. ‘She really did! I saw her!’ Excuse me, but WHAT?’
