Bum Genius Odor Remover

bumgeniusodorremover

I use this on my daughters cloth diapers once a month. After the diaper is soiled I spray each side of the liners and the shells inside layer and then wash as usual. It's handy to use when the diapers get a strong ammonia odor which is bound to happen eventually.

Cool Features: You can add Vicks medicinal products just above the vapor vent to help make it even more effective. Also, the fact that there are no buttons or settings to deal with is very very nice. It is also an easy size to carry at just 1.5 gallons and the nightlight works well.

Ear Infection and Sinus Infection

On my son's last day of preschool he came home with a running nose that quickly turned into green snot. My infant daughter soon after came down with green snot as well. I figured it's likely just a cold because both kids played just fine and the only bother was really me wiping their noses so often. The big question was how long should I wait to find out if it is something worse?

My Toddler Had Cosmetic Surgery

I was mortified when he asked me to lean over and lock my son's knees while holding both his hands down. In this position I was right in his face trying to comfort his screams as the doctor cleansed the wound to prep it for the anesthetic. It wasn't until I saw him pull the piece of lacerated ear up that I knew the extent of this injury, it was worse than I thought. A nurse was also there to try to hold his head steady. I broke down and cried with my son, he was in so much pain and I couldn't do anything about it.

He fell backwards and I immediately grabbed him and held him like I always do when he cries but this time was different. I felt a warmth against my neck that I quickly discovered was blood and then immediately saw his ear had been lacerated by the bookcase on the way down...
