Average Ratings:

Most new parents think of diapers as a smelly, expensive, and unavoidable necessity. The good news is that it’s possible—even practical—to raise your kids without diapers. In Diaper Free!, Ingrid Bauer shows how you can:

* Save thousands of dollars
* Reduce landfill waste (single-use disposable diapers are responsible for one third of the non- biodegradable waste in landfills)
* Avoid diaper rash
* Use the "Four Tools for Diaper Freedom" to enhance your relationship with your baby and deepen communication.

Based on extensive research, case studies, and the author’s own experience, Diaper Free! is a warm and helpful companion at every stage, from the first magical days of your baby’s life, to complete toilet independence.

Summary: Thank You Ingrid
Comment: I haven't read the other infant hygiene books, but I must say, Ingrid's book is by far one of the best infant care books I have read. The reason is simple, honoring your infant's potty signals is about caring for them in a deep and loving way. Ingrid imbues her book with the essence of the highest and best care for the mother and baby. Well done!

We do diaper free at home. At first there was pee going everywhere. Now we have a very high success rate, which means it is easier to care for our children.

Review is by Ramiel Nagel author of Healing Our Children: Because Your New Baby Matters! Sacred Wisdom for Preconception, Pregnancy, Birth and Parenting (ages 0-6)

Summary: Catered to One Style
Comment: No doubt this book has some good information, but it caters to the family that uses the attachment parenting style. It seems almost too judgmental that way, and I got the feeling that the author disagrees with anything other than the co-sleeping, no-diaper, stay-at-home methods of parenting. Some of us just don't have that luxury. If you want a non-judgmental, step-by-step guide on how to try EC at any age, check out The Diaper Free Baby by Christine Gross-Loh. It's not as much of an all or nothing approach, and addresses issues for both stay-at-home and working parents.

Summary: A must read for moms in Western culture
Comment: This book is a must read for any mom in Western culture. The current thought in America is that you cannot do anything at all with your children and a potty until they are two years old. This book helps us understand that this was not the case in the past and is still not the case in many cultures around the world. In fact, you can start putting your child on a potty the day they are born! This book helps you realize you have options other than waiting till your child is two. I began implementing elimination communication when my son was 8 months old (would have done it sooner if I had known about it). He just turned two and has been wearing underwear since he was 21 months old and hardly ever has accidents during the daytime(probably could have done it a lot sooner but it took me awhile to make that jump). We're about to have another baby, and I look forward to seeing how things work with elimination communication from birth this time.

Summary: Great Read
Comment: This is a fast, easy read about Natural Infant Hygiene. The information is very eye-opening, especially if the concept of not diapering a baby is new to you. Well-written and inspiring.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Look before you decide
Comment: My wife and I bought this book, which was recommended to us by a friend who has successfully used Natural Infant Hygiene with their child. I finished reading it the other day, and my wife and I are talking about trying it.

Perhaps others have had different impressions after reading the book, but I think that only about 10-20% of the total text was actually helpful. The rest seemed more like marketing material. Over half the book is more focused on why you should practice Natural Infant Hygiene rather than how to actually do so.

I'm not sure I would buy it again.
