Is it safe to put on a 8 month old? There are days her poop burns hers skin and it starts to bleed a little.

It isn't labeled for that use. I can't say whether to use it for that or not. This might irritate the open sores.

If our 4 children ride this tube long enough, it rubs one of them raw. But, that doesn't stop her from riding it for a long time, though. Our last tube like this (different brand) rubbed her raw the first few times, too. But, after she got used to the fabric and riding it, it wasn't a problem. She's only ridden this tube two separate weekends, so we're hopeful the problem will get better like it did with the last tube. We bought this tube because of the durability reviews--the last one didn't last as long as we'd have liked. Hope this helps.

My daughter chewed them fine but she is also 7 when I started her on them. That's such a big age difference I wouldn't know if 18 months is old enough. Maybe call them and ask for a free sample. Hugs and luck...

Hi Joanne, I also have a 2 year old and used it on her. I just made sure that I didn't put it on her hands that she puts in her mouth. I also used it on my 3 month old's legs. :)

I don't think you'd want to leave your diapers sitting more than 3 days, so there's no point in getting more than that amount. I would recommend around 26-30, so you're washing every other day when baby is newborn, and every third day when older. When baby is breast/formula fed, you don't have to rinse off the poop in the toilet or soak them or anything. Just do a rinse in the machine and then a hot wash. When they start solids, you need to dump that poop in the toilet.

You can use the cream. We have been using it on our baby every night since about 8 months of age. It was suggested by his pediatrician.

I am not sure. We use a cloth cover for it and if it gets dirty, we just wipe it with baby wipes.My baby has never pooped on it. Hope it helps.

I had been mixing this in with pureed or mashed food for my 8 month old baby for a couple of months before I read that only liquids were recommended for mixing. I just called the company and a customer rep told me that it was no problem to mix in with food. Obviously if your baby is not eating food yet this doesn't help, but thought I'd put it out there. I also did not have any issues mixing it with breast milk when he was younger.

My daughter is very tiny for her age and she used it just fine at 18 months. Its about half way between the toilet and the floor. This is the BEST investment ive ever made when it comes to my kids. Youll love it it gives them so independence. I plan to use with my second daughter in a few more months. Shes 13 months now .

I don't know but my baby was 8 months when he first used it. It was safe and secured for that age.

I would do so carefully, as the fabric is really porous. It depends on how sensitive your baby's skin is. Dilute it well. But it won't hurt the fabric, no.

I wouldn't use this if your kid is potty training. While it is washable, I would avoid washing it as much as possible since it does tend to fade and bleed when washed. Had to exchange the first one we bought due to this issue.

I would say its risky. I personally wouldn't want anything around my newborn. I would be worried about their neck getting in a position where they can't breathe. I got it when my son was 4 months old and he immediately came off of it and put it over his face (to chew on). I ended up attaching it to the sheets/mattress pad with safety pins. In a month and a half he figured out how to get his arm under it, which made the some of the pins come out. Glad I have a monitor because he could have poked himself. Anyway I quit using it. Not really worth it for a month and a half use plus I didn't see any improvement in his flat head.

Yes you can boil for 30min before first time use. I use Arm and Hammer sensitive. I first used the cloth diaper friendly stuff and it didn't work well and was expensive! Just use regular laundry soap. It's cheaper and cleans the poop and pee out better than the other stuff.

As long as they have on an elastic waistband or onesie, I don't think it's a problem. My daughter is 1-1/2 now and still wears it at night. As long as you put the diaper on tight enough, it stays put. I rarely took hers off during the first year...and she was walking at 9 months and super active. I've even heard some people that have put it on the side or back of the diaper.

Many 4 month old infants can't support their head, back to sit up let alone use a toilet/potty. My child is nearly 4 yr old. I feel this is best intended for a child capable of walking to the bathroom on its own.
