PlasticPants - These Pants Can Be Comfortable, Too!

Plastic is often perceived as cheap but what prevents us from appreciating it as a clothing article is usually attributed to the fact that it is unbreathable and uncomfortable to wear. However, in the case of plasticpants, manufacturers are coming up with ways to make a pair become more comfortable and convenient to wear.

Making plastic comfortable

The purpose of wearing plasticpants is to prevent diaper leaks from staining your beddings and the rest of your clothes. These pants are also suitable for babies to prevent leaks and to keep the diaper in place when they are asleep. Some women also wear them during their time of the month over their panties to prevent menstrual blood from staining their sheets.

However, some people find that wearing plastic pants cause them a lot of discomfort. To address that problem, the pants are now available in different sizes to fit you properly. That way, you won't have to worry about it being too loose or too tight around the waist or thighs.

Convenient ways to wear plastic

Plasticpants are commonly worn or wrapped and secured over the diapers with elastic waistbands, thighbands, and Velcro straps. You can even find pull-up variants with elastic waistbands and thighbands to keep the diaper in place while making sure that you can put them on easily. There are also those made with high quality plastic that you can wash and reuse so you can save more.

The right size and the right fit

These pants provide you with a generally inexpensive way to protect your beddings and clothes from stains that can be tough to remove. To make plastic more comfortable to wear, make sure that you pick the right size that fits just right on your waist and thighs. Remember that something too tight can cut your circulation and can make you sweat and become uncomfortable.

Clutch and Hobo Diaper Bags

Diaper bags nowadays are getting trendier that you barely even know it is made for that specific purpose. They are sort of a dual purpose since their fashionable style and design make it look like one of your ordinary chic bags. Two example of highly glam baby bags are the clutch diaper bags and hobo diaper bags.

Clutch diaper bags are typically handheld and more of a pouch type. They are usually very trendy and accentuated with beads, sequence, buckles, raffles and the likes. They are very feminine and go along so well with women outfits. Clutch baby bags vary in sizes. There are small good for few baby items and there re those that large enough to carry ample stuffs appropriate for a short getaway. Usually, it is the pouch type that is smaller than handheld ones.

Some of the clutch diaper bags are the Black Baby Blue Fairfax Clutch, Black Bead Fairfax Clutch, Blueberry Doodle Fairfax Clutch, Charcoal Green Berry Fairfax Clutch, Black Classic Fairfax Clutch, Doodle Bugs Chocolate Quick Change Bag, Marine Tadpole Fairfax Clutch Bag and Mod Dots Fire Bag.

Same way, the hobo bags are as fashionable as clutch baby bags. The only difference is that they are typically carried on shoulder-a shoulder bag of sort. To some, this type is more comfortable to carry since they are positioned on the shoulders. This implies that your two hands are free from holding things. If you are to carry your baby with you then this will be more appropriate than a clutch bag.

Designs of hobo diaper bags can be like the Black Quilted Hobo Diaper, Black/Sand Sand Moroccan Hobo, Black & White Floral Hobo, Smoky Blue Leather Pocketed Hobo, Red Leather Hobo, Chocolate Emily, The Mirelle Hobo, and Alisa Exotic Pink.

Both clutch and hobo diaper bags are usually manufactured by designer brands. Some of the them are Mia Bossi, OiOi, Caden Lane, Storksak, Ramalama, Kalencom, O Yikes!, Reese Li, Jp Lizzy, Amy Michelle, Holly Aiken, Timi & Leslie and others. They made extremely fashionable diaper bags that Moms do love and patronize for cater both their needs for a baby bag and fondness for designer bags.

However, looking for this bag is not all about fashion. Functionality must still be on top of it. It must serve well its purpose, which is to carry the necessary things of the baby when you are to go out with them. Functionality must also go with quality. Quality is important for it will somehow dictate the life span of your bag's functionality. Another factor that influences the life span of your baby bag is the usage. Unlike functionality and quality, which are beyond your control, usage is something within your control. It entails proper usage and taking care of the bag to make it useful for a quite a long time.

Postpartum Girdle - Why More Women Are Choosing to Wear Them

What exactly is a Postpartum girdle?

If you go back only a few decades it was fairly common for women to use some form of postpartum girdle or abdominal binding after having a baby and in some cultures this is still widely practiced. We may think of it as an old fashioned idea with no actual benefit but more women are going back to this method of regaining their figure after childbirth.

So How Do You Use A Postpartum Girdle?

You start to wear the girdle as soon as you reasonably can after the delivery of your baby and once you have checked with you doctor or midwife that it is ok to begin wearing it. You then continue to wear it for several weeks.

What are the benefits of this supposed to be?

the postpartum girdle gives support to your back, helping to ease the aches and pains which often follow delivery
it helps to support your back with the strain of carrying around your new little bundle of joy
helps you to get back into shape and regain your pre-pregnancy figure

The third of these benefits is of course very hard to prove or disprove. There are a lot of women who have worn a girdle and report that they have regained their figure and a flat stomach very quickly. However how can you tell whether they would have got back into shape just as quickly without the help of the girdle? Some people do just seem to be able to regain their figure more quickly than others.

What is significant though is that some women who have used a girdle for the first time with their second child report that they regained their figure more quickly with the girdle. As any mother will tell you it is usually more difficult to get back into shape after your second child than after your first, so this does suggest that there are some genuine beneficial effects.

The manufacturers of postpartum girdles say that they help to get the displaced internal organs back into the right position and compress the uterus. This helps the body to regain its previous shape more quickly.

Wearing a Postpartum Girdle After A Cesarean Section

Women who have had their babies delivered by cesarean section can find a postpartum girdle useful in reducing discomfort and assisting the healing process. Giving support to the muscles which surround the site of the incision can reduce pain enabling the wearer to be more mobile which in itself makes recovery quicker.

Some of the first ones to fail you include those that help to eliminate wastes from the body. That is where reusable incontinence briefs can come into play. These offer protection against potentially embarrassing situations.

Incontinence briefs can be purchased in a disposable form, but this can become costly. These types of adult diapers are not cheap, and the expense can add up if you wear these items on a regular basis. That is why reusable incontinence briefs have become so popular. They work in the same way that cloth diapers work for babies. They can be washed after each use, meaning you only need to invest in a few pairs one time in order to be protected.

These incontinence undergarments come in a variety of styles and that will offer different amounts of protection. People who use these should consider having both day and night use briefs on hand. Day briefs tend to be lighter weight and thinner for minimal protection for those that tend to only have small leaks and odor. They can also be thick and diaper-like for those that have little to no control of their bodily functions. Night briefs tend to be thicker to offer more protection for those that cannot make it from the bed to bathroom in time.

Some reusable incontinence briefs may be found in stores, but most choose to purchase them online. This can be a more discreet way to keep yourself protected against accidents. It will also provide you with more styles, colors, and designs than what most stores will carry. These briefs tend to be made with cotton or nylon, and have a high absorbent pad sewn into the center.

These briefs can provide some reassurance that no one will know if they happen to let a bit of urine leak.

As you can see, these incontinence briefs can be helpful in a number of situations. Many people feel embarrassed at the though of having to wear adult diapers, especially when they still have some control of their bladder.

Prison 101 - Part Three in a Serious Series About Rehabilitation Centers and Nursing Homes

Jane is living inside a bad rehab and care center. Here is what part of her day is like: She wakes to the loud calls of the nurse or health care worker who insists that she take medicine. If she refuses, it is marked in a book saying that she is not taking the medicine (this looks as if she is not cooperating, and meanwhile the worker has not bothered to ask why she is refusing it That would be too much work on her part. If she is told that the woman can not swallow the pills, then the worker would have to get an order from the doctor to crush the pills or add it to some food And that , of course requires work. So the worker does not bother to ask why she does not want the pills but just marks down that the patient is uncooperative). Jane needs to go to the restroom. She is wearing a diaper, at the insistence of some workers but she is not incontinent. She knows she needs to go and asks for help to the rest room. Jane waits, and waits and waits. She waits more. She is told to go in the diaper as that is what the diaper is for. Now, remember, Jane never asked for the diaper and did not want to be in diapers, and now the workers have her waiting and waiting and waiting until Jane cannot possibly hold it in any longer. Jane messes her diapers, and it looks to the workers as if Jane has an incontinent problem.

That is the beginning of Jane's day. The day goes on.

The problem is actually created by the workers and Jane cannot argue this point. No one will listen to Jane. So Jane is taught to wet her diaper and poop in her diaper ---for the convenience of the staff, and soon Jane's muscles loose control since she does not any longer have to control her urine or bowel movements. Now, what happens? Your guess is good. What would happen to someone who is incontinent? Probably they would be in diapers all the time, correct? And what else? Well, more and more doctors and the facility will make more money on Jane now that she needs more care, more diapers, and now that she probably will see a specialist to find out what the problem is with her being incontinent.

Yet, no one will acknowledge that the staff and the workers have actually taught Jane to be incontinent.

Ahh, that is just an opinion of course. Though I am not a medical doctor, and though I am not a medical professional, I do know enough about biology and about the human body to know that if you do not use your muscles , your muscles will eventually become useless to you. And it is muscles that allow you to hold urine in. Now, Jane no longer uses these muscles because the situation is hopeless. (Just for the record, the name JANE does not belong to anyone but is given as an example , such as Jane Doe).

Any resemblance to any real persons in this article are merely coincidental.

But this scenario can and does go on inside of nursing homes and inside of physical rehab and care centers, every single day. Every day, there are disabled individuals, seniors and aging people who are slowly being taught by staff to become incontinent. This is a severe form of control. And that is what living inside a nursing home is. It is all about control.

Odd enough though, what the homes should control, they do not control. For example, they have not figured out a way to prevent people from committing suicide right on their premises. One lady supposedly jumped to her death right from a nursing home in NYC. Yet, the homes have the energy and time to convince patients to wear diapers but not to stop them from jumping out of windows. Nursing homes can not figure out how to stop patients from becoming covered with bedsores, yet they can figure out how to get the patients and residents to apply for medicare and medicaid. Nursing homes have not figured out how to give excellent care to patients and residents but they have figured out how to charge them more than four hundred dollars per day. What is wrong with these pictures?

Tips for Women with Newborn Babies

Giving birth to a baby is one of the most natural things women can do. Raising children is also a normal part of life. But when you have your first baby, your life will change dramatically. You'll suddenly go from pregnancy to having a newborn baby to care for. A newborn baby needs constant care and nourishment, which brings many changes to a woman's life.

One way to make the transition and adjustments easier is to prepare for the baby before you give birth. Your health care giver can help you learn about newborn infant care. Also, read books and gather information from newborn-focused magazines for women. Be ready for your newborn to come home to a bed that is safe and comfortable. Have your baby's newborn clothes washed and ready to wear, and keep plenty of diapers and bottles on hand.

Feeding Your Newborn

If you are going to breastfeed your baby for the first time, ask questions of both your caregiver and other experienced women. Whether bottle-feeding or breastfeeding, your schedule will be mostly decided by the demand of your baby during the first months.

Some babies sleep longer between feedings than others and some will take to a set schedule right away. There is no definite course for feeding because babies differ in their habits. Newborn babies may also have differences in their digestive functions. Some babies spit up after eating or even after burping; some may vomit and some never do. These are things you will have to adjust to with your baby. But don't panic at the first sign of milk coming back up; it might only mean that the baby has overeaten at the time.

Caring for Your Newborn Baby

Many times women are fearful to give a newborn baby a bath. Babies seem very fragile when they only weigh a few pounds. You will soon learn to handle them and become comfortable with their care needs. Diapering and changing their clothes will help you to get used to how to hold them. Supporting their head for the first few months is one of the most important things to remember. As the baby grows, these tasks will be easier.

Sometimes a woman's greatest fear is illness in her newborn. Newborn screening is important because the caregiver can detect any problems early. Newborn jaundice is common among small babies but can be easily treated when caught early.

Even if you are a first-time mother, there are ways to tell if your newborn is sick. Sometimes a change is just temporary so it is better not to worry over every little thing. Some signs to watch for are: a change in behavior, crying or irritability, a change in digestion, constipation, diarrhea, or extreme vomiting, runny nose, coughing, congestion, trouble breathing, or fever. If you notice signs of illness, call your caregiver to describe the symptoms and how long they have been present. Arrange to have the baby seen as soon as possible.

Having a newborn baby is a wonderful and sometimes tiring experience for women. In these early days of your baby's life, you will build a bond of love that will last a lifetime. Try to enjoy every minute even when you are tired because these days only happen once.
