Make Your Own Wipe Solution

Wipe solutions are so easy to make and can save you money too! Use them for cleaning sticky hands and messy faces as well as dirty bottoms. Unlike commercial wipes, these recipes don't contain alcohol or chemicals, and they smell good. Use these recipes on cloth wipes or make your own disposable wipes and save even more money! To make disposable wipes, cut high quality paper towels in half, or leave whole for full-size wipes.

Common Cloth Wipe Solution Ingredients:

Many wipe solution recipes contain similar main ingredients, which are used for the same reason in each recipe. These are the common ingredients and why they're included:

Make Your Own Wipe Solution

Oil: Helps the wipe glide across baby's skin and keeps skin soft Soap: Cleanses by removing all traces of urine and feces EO: (Essential Oil) Added for antibacterial and/or aromatherapy purposes. Water: The main ingredient in each recipe, cleanses the diaper area and dilutes the other ingredients
The type and amounts of oil, soap, EO and water that goes into a recipe is what gives each cloth wipe solution it's own distinct "personality". Have fun trying different recipes until you find the ones that you like best!

How to Use Cloth Wipe Solutions

When mixing solutions it works best to start with oil and end with water. The oil will coat your measuring tools so the soap slips right off. Be sure to add the water slowly or you'll end up with a ton of bubbles! Most of the time it's easiest to gently mix the wipe solution in a bottle with a cover, then pour it into the storage container.

There are many different ways to store and apply wipe solutions to your wipes, try a few of the following ideas to find the one that works best for your family. You may discover that one system works great at home and another works great away from home. Here's some ideas to get you started:

Use a spray bottle to spritz baby's bottom or the wipes. (For baby's comfort we prefer spraying the wipes) Use a bottle with a pull-up spout (like on bottled-water bottles) to dribble solution onto the wipes. Warm solution and place in an insulated container to provide warm wipes for baby. Place the solution into a commercial baby wipes container and dip wipes into the solution. Place cloth wipes in a commercial baby wipes container and pour wipes solution over wipes. A commercial baby wipes container can be placed in a wipes warmer to provide cozy warm wipes for baby.
Don't store solution or wet wipes for a long time because they can become musty and the wet wipes may even grow mildew - ewww! Check your solution and wet wipes daily, and mix smaller batches of solution frequently instead of large batches less often to avoid mustiness. We mix fresh solution once a week, store it in a bottled-water bottle, and have not had any problems with mustiness.

What Do Baby Rabbits Eat? A Guide to Raising a Young Bunny

If you have a baby rabbit that doesn't have access to its mother, you might be wondering "What do baby rabbits eat?". This is a good question to ask, because the bunny digestive system can be very delicate at first.

Rabbits milk is the most caloric of any mammals milk and can be difficult to replicate. The best replacement milk you can find is Kitten Milk Replacer (KMR) which can be bought at pet stores, and some times even your local supermarket. Even so, this milk is not as caloric as the rabbit needs, so a good idea is to add a tablespoon of cream to each can. This will mix well and raise the caloric content to a level that baby rabbits need.

Babies Toddler

You should only be feeding baby bunnies twice a day. I suggest using an eye dropper or oral syringe. Oral syringe works best because you can measure how much you're giving them. You can find these at any pharmacy.

What Do Baby Rabbits Eat? A Guide to Raising a Young Bunny

In addition to the kitten milk replacer, I also highly recommend adding acidophilus to the mixture. Acidophilus comes in capsule form and can be found at a health store, or pharmacy. Acidophilus is the general name for a group of probiotics that can help the digestion process greatly.

How much should you be feeding the bunny?

Here are some daily feeding guidelines you should be using for a 5-6 pound bunny:

As a newborn, start with 5 CC's of KMR and half a capsule of acidophilus.
1 Week move onto 10-15 CC's of KMR and half a capsule of acidophilus
2 Weeks move onto 25-30 CC's of KMR and a full capsule of acidophilus
3 Weeks and until weaned stay at a good 30 CC's of KMR with a full capsulte of acidophilus.

Christening Party Ideas for a New Baby

Christening is the first step of child into his or her religious faith. During Christening, the parents make declarations and the baby is baptized with holy water. Then a candle is lit, which represents Jesus, denoting him as the light of the world. This candle is then handed over to the parents and Godparents. When the parents plan of having their child baptized, they talk on different things with the priest and he explains as to what is the true meaning of baptism. The Christening celebrations can take place as a separate service for one or more children and it can take place without the hymns and can last from half an hour to an hour.

In this article, I want to share different Christening celebration ideas that you can incorporate in the event to make it memorable. When you have talked with the priest and have a set date and time, now you need to make a list of the things that you need to get for the Christening festivity. You can choose the gown or outfit for your child, which can be of heirloom quality fabric that you can keep for the future generations with the proper storage procedures. You can also buy different accessories for your child including shoes, socks, bib, blanket, bonnet, towel, headband and boutonniere

Babies Toddler

Another very valid idea that you can implement in your Christening Party is to give your guests favors, which will make them remember of their participation and is a token of appreciation. You can make a certificate, which will serve as a written record of baptism. If your budget allows you, you can buy your child a bracelet. At Christening party, Godparents can give a keepsake to their Godchild as it will be a wonderful memory for the child. Lastly, you can make a movie and take photographs so that your child enjoys watching as they grow old.
