I worry about the same thing my daughter will be 6 months tomorrow and has been having the xrays since she was 4 months. I know next week will only be the 3rd...

Hi There Like you I was very concerned about the dosage of radiation my daughter was getting. I have since discovered that it is a very low dosage, in fact it...
This is probably not a really helpful answer. I have had these same concerns and they aren’t yet resolved for me. They showed up again now that I’m not ...
My daughter has always been naked when they do the Xrays. They do not put any lead aapron over her at all. They do give on to me and my husband but nothing...
We are a cloth and disposable household! We started with disposables but after I found this board, Jesi had just posted a thread about cloth being easier with...
Alexia spent her first day in her harness yesterday, Halloween. She was not the same child we had just the day before. She was so miserable though she tried...
Hi Everyone, I don't have anything to add about which is best, but I do want to correct a misconception. Cloth diapers are not necessarily better for the...
Some doctors use the protective cover on the patient, others don't. Mine does not have the technician use it, reason being that sometimes it interferes with...
This is a concern that we have all probably grappled with. My cousin is a radiologist, and so I asked him about it early on. He did say that we should...
Mine is the exact same way. He also told us that you get more radiation from flying in a plane than the x-rays do. Our ortho uses digital x-rays though, so I...
My daughter started to get x-rays when she was 6wks old. She has had a large number of x-rays since then. They do not cover her up with anything either....
Hi Sandi! I really don't mean to be disagreeable, but I'm going to have to politely disagree :) I have a REALLY hard time believing that any one-time-use...
I personally think that cloth and disposable end up about equal for the environment. I do want to say that tree's are a renewable resource as we can plant...
I would also like to jump in. I have hauled everything needed to make a diaper. Nearly everything used has a breathing issue requiring masks to be worn. At the...
Hi Jesi, We all have the right to be disagreeable now and then :) And plus, the world would be boring if we all agreed all the time. I think we'll have to...
I cried just now reading your story. I remember that day so well BUT.... It does get better!!!! Eliza was placed in her harness on a friday afternoon and...
Hey Jesi, Any thoughts to us moms who live in an area where there is no diaper service? You've had me thinking about this whole diaper thing since I joined...
I'm glad that my questions could inspire debate. However no one has yet to address my take on why cloth might work better for SPICA, does anyone have thought...
My son is 2 months old and has now been in the pavlik for a little over a month. He still wears his feetie pajamas, but in a larger size and only the kind that...
It really does get better. My little one was 6 weeks old when she was put in the harness 24-7 for 6 weeks. I cried alot that day! But then I looked around the...
Hey Erin! Good news! You can (and most cloth diaper'ers now do) wash your own dipes at home! :) Our washing machines now-a-days are really amazing and with a...
Hey Sandi! Well heck, what fun would ANYTHING be if we all agreed on everything? Boring! :) I can totally see your point - I guess a lot of times I see this ...
We finally get our cast-change on Monday! Yay! She'll be at 8 weeks in her cast at that point. It's been making me a little nervous because she got fatter...
Jesi- Its great to be able to disagree in a friendly manner and all, but my intention in posting was to get some advice. My son's surgery is coming up fast....
Hi Sara! I am SOOO sorry - I completely missed your last post! :( Anyway, I am probably not the best one to answer any of this since I've only used cloth, but...
Chayleigh's second cast was the exact same as her first cast. Both went from her nipples to her ankles. The second cast was a lot bigger, but she grew a ton...
Jesi- I'm pretty sure we're going cloth, since my thought is that cloth will help keep the cast cleaner. What kind of outer diaper do you think you'd get?...
