"she's going to be deformed"

Allie30 · January 2011

Can anyone point me to a study that shows cloth diapering children do NOT grow up with bowed legs and motor difficulties? A family member was telling me my baby can't move her legs freely (she can when her bulky overnight diaper is off!) and is going to end up with a crooked spine from being arched up on her back in her fluffy butt all night.

We all wore cloth diapers and we can walk fine can't we? I would just say something like that. But, I'm snarky like that. Big Smile

You could point out that people used cloth diapers for thousands (hundreds? anyone know what the Egyptians used?) of years before disposables were invented and they all developed fine.

People have been CDing waaaay longer than sposies have been around.

This is the most ridiculous thing that I have seen all day. I am pretty sure that they would have recalled/banned by now if loads of children are being deformed by CDs.

People are crazy.

Our friends told us that DD was going to have crooked legs because she was rear-facing until around 2.5 years of age.

sorry, I don't have a study, but I was just going to say that is such a sh*tty thing to say to a new mom!

If it were me I'd probably say something snarky.

LOL. I did say that disposables weren't even invented until fifty years ago so people had to have been putting their babies in SOMETHING -- and his response was that it wasn't giant microfiber 12 hour diapers.

This! Every single human being born between the invention of cloth and Gen X was CD'd... And while they might nit have had MF I can guarantee a WAD of cloth friom 100 years ago wasn't LESS bulky!

Where did he get this information? Is he able to verify his sources from current scientific medical journals.... what a load of crap.

I went through google scholar- searching for any scholarly articles and journals that indicate any relationship between a spinal defect as a result of cloth diapering...and there is nothing.

Tell him he is a moron and to keep his moronic statements to himself!
