I often think about the mamas on the prairie or the mothers in Bible times. Eve, as a first time mother, and the first mother trying to learn without being able to see tasks modeled for her. It is a gift to learn from other moms and to be able to observe what works well...
Whenever I finish a package of baby wipes, which is a lot, I think: What DID those little Mamas on the prairie do when their babies had major messes... and they only bathed their babies once a month (if that), and they didn't have 10 jumbo packages of wipes lying around?
For real- the regular diaper changes, the diaper explosions where it pops out, up, down, and all around reaching up to the hair, the spills, the messes, etc. We use wipes for ALL the things. I have a feeling we may get to know those moms' creative ways in the near future... ready or not!
The mamas who came before us (and the creators of the baby wipes) are the real MVP's.
