St. Paul hit the nail on the head when he said, To the pure all things are pure, but to the impure nothing is pure (Ti 1:15). It is a tragically impure world that labels the purity of a baby at the breast as "gross." For those with the purity to see it, a nursing mother is one of the most precious, most beautiful, and most holy of all possible images of woman. (source)

Crazy huh. I just found my daughters first tooth this weekend. I thought for sure Heaten would beat her to the punch, but she tricked me. =) Do the babies bite you?

Yes. In fact, the about a week ago J bit me HARD. He was nursing to sleep and had a spasm right as he drifted off and chomped down. It hurt to nurse for several days. I was not amused. I finally gave that side a day off, just pumped it, and made them share the other side. That did the trick. In general when they do a nibble to sort of test the waters I announce that they are not allowed to bite mommy. and put the breasts away.

I’m not looking forward to teeth yet. Sam is 7 months old without a tooth in sight, and I’m glad! He’s a biter.
From reading your posts earlier, I would gather you do not spank. For squirmy older kids during diaper changes I give a small swat on the thigh. It doesn’t hurt them, but they stop. For little guys, its just a wrestling match. But it doesn’t matter if its cloth or disposables, they are still going to wiggle.
I use mostly BumGenius diapers, and they are always ready to go, so its just a quick change for us, just like using disposables. I have never used kissaluvs.
Another thing that helps is to NOT change on the floor or couch, use a changing table, they can’t wiggle as much, and won’t. I remember changing my older kids, it was a battle! I’d have to pin them to the floor with my leg so I could clean them up without mess in the carpet, lol. I have not had that problem with my last 2, which I ALWAYS use the changing table for. I think that because from the very beginning that place was to get the job done and not for playing they just know to behave on there.
And I don’t mind the question, I am probably not done having kids, I pray for twins daily, lol. I know, I actually WANT that chaos in a double dose! We don’t and won’t use birth control ever again. But our fertility is not normal anymore, my dh had a vasectomy and then it was reversed and the count is not normal. Plus I’m over 35 now. It took 2 years after I got my cycle back without birth control to get pregnant with Sam.
