After watching my son struggle to focus at school I decided to withdraw him and jump into homeschool. I knew he understood The curriculum they were doing at school because he was also doing it at home with no problem. So when I had multiple conferences with his teacher about him not being able to do his school work I decided it was time to do it myself. We are now a year into homeschooling and he is thriving. Sometimes school can be overwhelming for kids and it's not natural for them to sit down for 7 to 8 hours.

One of the biggest decisions you'll make as a new parent is what kind of diapers you'll use. With that, you'll also have to pick wipes. And also diaper rash preventative and treatment. But let's be real, you need multiple options. Because your first option might not be what's best for your baby. Or, you might end up giving them a try and not liking them as much as you thought. Let's not forget that what might work for one of your babies, will work for all. Or that your baby will wear the same kind of diaper until they're potty trained. As a mom to 3, I feel experienced enough to give my opinion on just about every brand of diaper as I've tried most brands. Here is a list of the diapers, wipes, and diaper rash creams and ointments I've tried and ranked them out of 10.These are affiliate links. I may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.
