Is this product worth it if baby is already on solids and their poop is more solid? Or best for the 'runnier' breastmilk poop?

Breastmilk poo is water soluble so you really don't need a sprayer...As soon as solid food hits you will be SO GLAD to have a diaper sprayer!! So nasty. There will be times the poo will not just fall off as one would hope - it will sit inside every crevice of your diaper and without a sprayer or your hands you won't be able to get it off. This is one investment you will not regret! Signed, a mother of three (first time CDer)

Our son is 20 months old, eating solids and still nursing and this diaper sprayer is awesome! I use it more now that he is older than I did when he was ebf! Make sure you have the sprayer pointing down away from your face though! Both myself and my husband have sprayed ourselves in the face while obviously not paying attention to which way the sprayer was pointed! LOL

Haha...well, "worth it" is a bit of a subjective idea here...the first time your solid-pooping kiddo has a loose stool or gets sick and has diarrhea, it suddenly becomes "worth it!" It also becomes worth the money if you plan on having another child. And we also use ours for other things, like when cleaning the shower. So I do think it's worth it. But I've also heard of people using a solid plastic spatula to scrape the poo out, so maybe that's a safer bet if you're unsure ;)

We've used it for both. The real solid poops simply drop in the toilet but depending on what our 10 month old eats (he is eating both solids and getting breastfed) at times they are a little softer and the sprayer works well.

My daughter has used this for 3 years, and it has worked well with breastmilk and solids.

Babies that eat only breastmilk have water soluble poop--we never prewashed/sprayed, we just threw them in the wash! I didn't get the sprayer until my first was done breastfeeding--the solid food poops are waaaaaaay worse than the breastmilk poop! Regular food poops are much harder to dunk/wash out, and your child will likely have very runny poops for the first couple of years--so YES, definitely worth getting!

I installed this before our first baby was born. Then found out that completely breast-fed poop is water soluble, so need to remove it before washing. We didn't use the sprayer while our baby was only breast fed. Now, he is getting into solids and we've started using the sprayer is is very powerful if you need it to be and more helpful for solids then breast fed.

If you're using cloth diapers now and you feel the need to spray them out, this is good. If your baby makes a "clean" poop that just falls out and leaves little on the diaper, you won't really need this. In our house, we used it on maybe every other poopy diaper. It just helps the diapers come cleaner and the pale doesn't get as funky. We washed our diapers daily but I've heard some people did every other day and I think if you have diapers in a pail 2 days, you'll want to spray them. Regardless, if you decide to buy blueberries, you're gonna need it. :)

Breastmilk poo doesn't need to be rinsed, but sometimes their poo when eating solids is more sticky, especially if they are still taking in a fair amount of milk/formula. Plus, you can use the sprayer to clean out the kid potty when toilet training, bidet for yourself (most are safe for using postpartum), rinsing around the rim of the toilet when you clean it, etc.

I would say yes bc how often do you actually catch your child before it gets squished into their diaper. I wouldn't CD without this. I've tried and it wasn't pretty.

I would definitely recommend as my baby is exclusively breast fed and she could easily use this one , she is still using it! She is 1 y o now�

Hi, I bought this baby carrier when my daughter is 1 month old. Now she is 10 month and 4 week old. She is 20 pound. I am still using my carrier but I am not comfortable as previous. The carrier has one snap-fastener both side of down part of carrier. It should be stay more stable to keep bottom part of it wide, but when baby is gaining weight and moving her leg more stronger then snap fastener easily opens. That time my back getting ache quickly. This carrier is not good and strong for big baby. I hope this review is helpful.

It depends on how loose your kiddos stools are. It did us fine unless my kiddo was sick and even at that I think I only had to hand wash 4 cloth diapers before throwing in the wash. I did not introduce solids for at least 6mos and that was just to get him used to different tastes. I think my kiddo was a year old before he was getting most of his nourishment from solids. We breast fed until the 4th birthday. I would say that if they are mostly runny otherwise we did fine. I must say that I was a finicky changer. I don't like to touch poo so we changed seconds after a BM.

Rogges, so did you find this worked for your little one and his/her reflux? I'm debating on whether to get it or not. My 7 wk old is having it pretty bad. Thanks in advance!

I use earth's best whole grain oatmeal mixed with formula for my son's middle of the night feed. I make a bottle and mix in a little oatmeal to keep the formula from coming back up since he goes straight to bed after. It mixes well and I have had no issues. Just make sure you don't put too much or else it thickens the formula and can't get through the nipple.

The box comes with a scoop. I use almost a whole scoop for a full load. There is a half full line on the inside of the scoop, so I'd use that for a medium load. If you use too much, your darker items will have powder marks on them. It won't hurt you (or your baby), but if it bothers you just re-run them through the rinse cycle.

This is a big question in a simple question disguise... The simple answer is these liners are really 'poop' catchers. They are a thin layer that lets the pee pass through, but holds the poo so you can drop it in the toilet. Long answer: If you are exclusively breastfeeding you can wash the poop in your machine (breast milk breaks down so easily) Then, when starting solids you'll need one of these because the poo will get firmer. You'll need one on every diaper because you'll never know when baby will poo. As far a cloth diapering goes, we talk about them in terms of covers (leak proof outer layer, also includes pockets diapers), cloth (pre-folds, hemp, soakers, etc) and then liners. You will always need some form of each of these when diapering (unless using all-in-ones and then only add the liner).

I looked up some information for you and found that short-term use of Certain Dri while breastfeeding is safe. From what I have read, Certain Dri is one of the safest to use compared to other antiperspirants. It contains the least amount of aluminum, which has been linked to health risks to women who are breastfeeding. Here is the link to the article where I found the information:http://m.infantrisk.com/content/aluminum-rich-antiperspirants-potential-hazard

If there are any chunks it will not go in through the cylinder into the pouch. My baby is 8 months old and I still feed her purees. I mix her fruit with cereal in the morning. Even if I only use it for 4-6 months, I feel it is totally worth it for the fresh food. I plan on using it past age 1 for fruit on the go. Just like those applesauce pouches you buy.

I did not use a baby bjorn potty seat, so I couldn't compare, but my little one found the lil loo potty easy to use. We had some success potty training until we had a grease fire, and the cleaning company threw it away. We now have a potty seat that is the Safety 1st brand, and she doesn't seem to like using it as much as she did the lil loo potty seat.

I use these with my thirties and prefolds, GroVia BioLiners Unscented Diaper Liners, 200 CountIt somehow contains the solid waste so you can just flush it down the toilet. Otherwise reusable diapers would have been a deal breaker! No washing diapers in the toilet or getting special spray attachments! Make sure you get a serious pail, like diaper Dekor too!

I'm pretty sure it's ok for 8 week infant. Although, I exchanged this for Babybjorn Miracle, which I liked mush more, it's not as bulky as Comfort one

I am wondering if you took this while you were breastfeeding? Or did you decide against it??

I am kind of angry at Nature's One cause I don't feel they are really transparent. It's really hard to find the information about why Baby's Only make babies so constipated: the truth is, this formula is EXTREMELY casein-dominant, much more than any casein-dominant infant formula. This is the reason why they market it as toddler formula, and not just because the company wants to promote infant breastfeading like their consumer service told me when I asked them about infant suitability. Unlike whey, casein is really hard to digest and makes babies constipated. The proteins in Baby's Only are 18% whey and 82% casein, exactly like cow milk, therefore it is NOT suitable for infants (for the record, proteins in breast milk are 90% whey/10% casein in early lactation, 60/40 in mature milk and 50/50 in late lactation). I don't think it's fair that we have to do so much research to find out about it. I feel cheated.

Hi Debra, This was the only bottle that my 4 month old breast fed baby would take. It still wasn't an easy transition since he had previously been only breast fed. We left him at my in-laws house over night and went "cold turkey" switching him to the bottle. Then my husband did all the following feedings for a couple weeks by bottle while I pumped. A hard transition... but I don't think we could have done it without the comotomo bottle.

My baby is 3 months and just outgrew it but she is pretty large for her age, 25+ inches and like 15+ pounds. I know of other babies that used it for a lot longer. Even though I only used it for 3 months I feel it was definitely worth it especially if you are breastfeeding!!
