The Great Cloth Diaper Change 2012

This year, in conjunction with the International Cloth Diaper Awareness Week from 16-21 April, i've decided to join the Great Cloth Diaper Change Malaysia. The event will take place on the 21st April 2012 @ 12.30am at Saujana Utama Mall. You must be thinking- what?

So let me tell you a bit about GCDC (taken from GCDC Malaysia's website)

History: Judy Aagard’s desire to celebrate Earth Day by hosting a family event for the Tiny Tots community quickly morphed into a dream to set a Guinness World Record for the most cloth diapers changed simultaneously. Shortly thereafter, The Great Cloth Diaper Change 2011 was conceived and organized by a small group of cloth diaper enthusiasts that were eager to demonstrate that cloth diapers are a real option for today’s families.

2011: A Guinness World Record was set for the most cloth diapers changed simultaneously with 5,026 participants at 127 locations in 5 countries. The total number of participating hosts (not all qualified for the GWR) reporting were 203 with 6,363 participants from 10 countries! $5,167 was donated to the Real Diaper Association.

But i think the reason why we all (crazy moms) decide to join the GCDC is because we simply love cloth diapering our children and we want to spread the love. We want other moms to join us in recognizing that cloth diapers are the best for our children- less toxic, more green and more natural, back to the basics, plus they are really cute and fun!

So lets all gather at Saujana Utama Mall on the 21st April and show our support for cloth diapers and natural parenting. Can't wait to see you there!

*Baby Ultra will open a small booth there too at the Eco Bazaar. Join us and stand a chance to win a regular sized MikiWili CD/ training pants and an NVme AI2 diaper*

Going green part 4: Babywearing

Today's post is gonna be a simple one. I'm letting the pictures do all the talking. I just wish i knew about babywearing a lot earlier, but having said that, i think i discovered it at just about the right time in my life- when i have 4 kids to run after!

How i learnt about babywearing? It started off from looking at my fellow cloth diaper fanatic friends on Facebook. At first i thought "what la these mommas.. Takde keje ke.. What is wrong with them?"... Hehe... Jangan marah ye kawan2 (nanti kena jualll). Then i said to myself some more (after joining the Malaysian Babywearers group on FB- just to see what the hype is all about!)-"what?! Haiyoo soo expensive the gears! They must be filthy rich or totally nuts!". Dalam hati- i just dont understand these people! Kain like langsir (referring to the pfaus and fisches) also hundreds of ringgit ah? Might as well use my curtains.

Then i never stalk MBW's FB again... Until... It was nearly time for my maid to return to Indon for her holidays! I was thinking, how la am i supposed to take care of 4 kids while she's gone? The elder 2 are ok as they attend kindy in the day, but a 2 year old and a newborn? How lah?! And so the story begins...😉

📢And look at me now... (dlm hati- just shut up next time 😜)
