ITA Alison. We use it for cuts and scrapes, not for everyday cleaning. I had an old boss who was as healthy as horse, never got sick, ever. I asked why and he said it's because they used to swim in the East River as kids -- disgustingly filthy, but it built up his immune system! :-)

Ask a Baby Blogger: Why Can't You Breastfeed a Baby on a Schedule? - Blog Entry

I *did* feed my last three on a schedule. David slept through the night at two weeks, and the other two by six weeks. My demand-fed baby was 14 months old before she did. The schedule is the same one they use in the critical care nursery at the hospital. For US, it allowed us to plan our days, to be rested, and for me to be able to better care for my husband and the other children. I had no problems with leaking (I did with the first) nor milk supply. The kids are all healthy (both demand-fed and schedule-fed). It worked for us BEAUTIFULLY. Both methods can be successful. For us, scheduled feeding was FAR superior. For others, demand-feeding is.

If You Had it Do Over Again, What Equipment Would You NOT Buy? - Blog Entry

I would've passed on the changing table - it just took up space. With my first one, I went out and bought eyelet lace and made the bumpers, diaper stacker, curtains, etc. It ended up being twice as expensive as buying a set in the store. lol. I bought a good quality sling with my third. It was worth the extra money, and I wish I would've done that with the two before him.

Good blog!

Ours is about 45 minutes, too. We only do special occasions, but then we do then with coupons in hand. One thing I really like is that ALL the games at ours cost one token -- even the helicopter one that you sit inside the cockpit, which costs a DOLLAR at the mall!

We play a version of this called Fortunately/Unfortunately. "Unfortunately, I didn't eat before we left." "Fortunately there's a Jack in the Box!" "Unfortunately, Mom has no cash." "Fortunately, they take credit cards." "Unfortunately, I didn't bring credit cards either." etc etc :-)
