			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m wondering if makers of <a href="http://www.growingagreenfamily.com/greenwashing-fun-with-disposable-diapers/">disposable diapers</a> are starting to feel threatened by all the cute reusable cloth diapers on the market today.</p>
<p>Huggies has come out with diapers that look like jeans. They&#8217;re called Little Movers Jeans Diapers, and the <a href="http://lightgreenstairs.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/jeans-diapers.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-2898" title="jeans-diapers" src="http://lightgreenstairs.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/jeans-diapers.jpg" alt="" width="185" height="131" /></a>marketing is brave. They come right out and use the word &#8220;poop&#8221; in their commercials to air on some networks starting May 31, as <em><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/25/business/media/25adco.html?partner=rss&amp;emc=rss">The New York Times</a></em> reports.</p>
<p>I wanted to hurl a little when I read the quote that closes the article. A marketing chic said, “The first who has these in the play group, wins.”</p>
<p>Really? Cause last I heard kids who wear cloth diapers are potty trained earlier. And their parents <strong><a href="http://www.growingagreenfamily.com/reusable-diapers-vs-disposable-baby-diapers/">save precious cash</a></strong>. Plus, all that poop plastic won&#8217;t be sitting in landfills. Hmm, not to mention baby bottoms wearing cloth diapers get to miss out on all those nasty chemicals and dyes, which in some cases may cause <strong><a href="http://lightgreenstairs.com/green-choices/save-baby-buns-use-cloth-diapers/">diaper rash</a></strong> or worse.</p>
<p>If you think Huggies and Pampers should start offering cloth diapers, tell them, please. We don&#8217;t need more decorator disposables in the world.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.morguefile.com/archive/display/112035"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-2766" title="cloth-diapers" src="http://lightgreenstairs.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/cloth-diapers.jpg" alt="" width="275" height="397" /></a><a href="http://littleslicesofgreen.com/five-easy-ways-to-go-green-with-your-baby/">Green your baby</a> by going with cloth diapers and you could prevent diaper rash and maybe even chemical burns in some cases.</p>
<p>Disposable diapers can contain stuff you&#8217;ve probably never thought about like toxic chemicals, including sodium polyacrylate, dioxin from bleaching, and tributyltin (TBT). Read more about these nasty chemicals and their effects at <strong><a href="http://www.realdiaperassociation.org/diaperfacts.php">Real Diaper Association</a></strong>.</p>
<p>Most recently, new Pampers with Dry Max are causing major concern among many parents who report that their babies started having diaper rashes and burns after wearing the diapers. Dry Max is featured in Swaddlers and Cruisers diapers.</p>
<p>The Consumer Product Safety Commission is currently investigating the  claims that Dry Max is causing diaper rash or chemical burns.</p>
<p>Read more about the parental outrage surrounding the new Pampers at MSNBC: <strong><a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/36972785/ns/health-kids_and_parenting/">New Pampers trigger safety concerns</a></strong>.</p>
