    Breast feed?  Y Formula feed? Only as a supplement to BF if unavoidable

    Cloth Diaper? N Disposable? Y

    SAHM? For now Working mom? Once kids get preschool age

    Making baby food? Store bought baby food? Both

    Organic cleaning solutions? regular cleaning? I have always done as much non-toxic cleaning as possible (DH & I have allergies)

  • Well, the only thing that is for sure is sahm (because I am already a sahw) and chem free cleaning solutions because we already use them.  Other than that, I plan to EBF & CD and really hope I am successful particularly with the first.  Dh & I are both really into making our own baby food since we eat all organic & are vegetarians, so I am excited to try that down the line.

    Cloth Diaper- My plan was cloth diapers but I received so many disposables at my showers that I feel like I have to use them because I can't return them.


    You could donate them to a women's shelter, or to someone who was always planning on using disposables. Just a thought...

    SAHM

    Making baby food? Store bought baby food? - neither, we do Baby Led Weaning (no "baby food", but I cook/prepare most everything she eats)

    Homemade cleaning solutions - I don't know if they're actually considered organic or not.  Mostly vinegar-based, though.

    April - you can return unopened disposable diapers to BRU, or if you don't have one, Wal Mart.  We were able to, anyway, even without a receipt and without knowing where they came from. 

  • I will BF and CD and be a SAHM. Not sure about the baby food yet. I will use regular cleaning items.

  • We're planning to breast feed.

    We'll cloth diaper, make our own baby food when it's time, and our cleaning solutions are all some combination of vinegar/water/baking soda/Dr. Bronner's anyway. 

    I'll be a seminary student, so I'll have off after giving birth in November, get December break, and then skip the two-week January intensive, to go back at the beginning of February. Assuming that I deliver around my due date or a week or two late, I'll have between 8-10 weeks off. My schedule is Tuesday/Wed/Thurs anyway, so I guess I'll be somewhere in between working outside the home and SAH.

    SAHM? Working mom? Mainly SAHM, but I'm keeping two clients, so I will be working here and there (probably like 10 hrs a week) for a year.  Then I'm off to grad school again for Fall 2011 (deferred due to baby)!

    Making baby food? Store bought baby food? Haven't decided.  Living in Berkeley, there are lots of people who make organic baby food so I may just buy theirs!

    Organic cleaning solutions? regular cleaning? Organic


  • Breast feed, cloth diaper, working mom (if I get the job I'm going for, if not SAHM), making baby food, and sticking with homemade/natural/organic cleaners

     

  • Breast feed? Formula feed? I BF until 5 months, which is when I got my 3rd round of mastitis and decided it was time to call it quits.  He was fully weaned by 6 months. 

    Cloth Diaper? Disposable? Just started cloth diapering a few weeks ago, so we're doing a little of both right now. 

    SAHM? Working mom? SAHM

    Making baby food? Store bought baby food? Store bought, but I usually buy only organic baby food.

  • BF, disposable, working, making food, evil regular cleaning products that really work.

    Mucho likes purple nails and purple cupcakes
  • BF (FF when needed to supplement)

    Cloth diaper

    Changing from WM to SAHM, but only because I hate my job

    We bought our baby food, but I am intrigued by BLW, so I'll look into that

    We try to use non-toxic cleaning solutions now, but I know we can do better.

  • Breast feed? Formula feed?

    Cloth Diaper? Disposable?

    SAHM? Working mom?

    Making baby food? Store bought baby food? both

    Organic cleaning solutions? regular cleaning? green cleaners

     

  • I'll BF and after flow is established pump some so that DH can bottle feed her too (and so she can eat while I'm at work).

    We're using disposables which are supposedly biodegradable.  I always thought I'd do cloth, but ended up marrying a blind man so the maintenance of cloth is not practical for our household.

    Keeping my career (therapist) - I have office hours 2 1/2 days a week plus a staff meeting.

    Making baby food.

    Non-toxic earth-friendly cleaning products are all we've ever used in our home.

  • afgafg member

  • Breast Feeding

    CDing at home, Disposables for day care 

    Working mom, but just 2-3 days a week

    Making my baby food

    I use a mix of organic cleaning solution and regular, but trying to phase out all detergents. 

  • I'll be doing the same thing I did after #1, which is:

    Breastfeed as long as possible (my supply dried up when I got pg again, so I could only nurse DD for 7 months.  She drinks goat milk now .)

    Cloth diaper all the way!  We used sposies for about a month recently and I was so happy to get back into cloth - they work much better, IMO.

    SAHM.

    A mix of making baby food and store bought.  At home, she eats homemade, but I use store-bought for outings when convenient.

    And as far as cleaning, I use a mix of regular stuff and organic stuff.  

     

  • Breast feed? Formula feed? BF

    Cloth Diaper? Disposable? CD

    SAHM? Working mom? Work outside the home

    Making baby food? Store bought baby food? Making

    Organic cleaning solutions? regular cleaning? Homemade/natural but not necessarily organic.
