    With the one year olds it is pretty much a before and after nap thing which sort of translates into every two hours. Diapers these days can hold a lot more than we give them credit for but that doesn't mean a child should have that wet thing on them for that long. Once they give up the morning nap I check at 9, change at 11, check at 1 before nap changing only those that need it and again at 3:30 after nap. Learned to get them all up and shoes on, beds away, etc. and then do diapers as some pee on waking not while sleeping. Anyone here after 4:30 is checked again unless we are outside and/or the odour dictates otherwise. I plan on 4 per day but always have extra in reserve.

    Yup the way they advertize those 12 hour diapers I honestly think some parents think that means you can leave the same diaper on the child for 12 hours unless they 'poop' in it .... and well EWWWW!

    Seriously when we are old and senile in the home I sure hope I do not have someone with logic like that taking care of me ... cause unless I am sleeping and blissfully unaware of the state of my body I do not want to be sitting in my pee for 12 hours at a time just because the diaper will 'hold that much'
    Children construct their own intelligence. The adult must provide activities and context, but most of all must be able to listen. Children need proof that adults believe in them. Their three great desires are to be listened to, to understand, and to demonstrate that they are exactly what we expect."
