Parenting

Yes this is going to be a touchy post but I think that it is time to write about it. My parenting styles are my own; but I have a wonderful group of ladies that believe the same things that I do. I am a co-sleeping, cloth diapering, use to baby wear, extended rear-facing, and intactivist! I am proud of everything that I am. Yes, my son is 2 years old and co sleeps, he starts in his bed and ends up in ours and I love that he is there. I love the snuggling and waking up to my handsome little boy next to me. Cloth diapers save me money and they are cute, granted we use disposables at night because he is a heavy wetter. I loved to wear Keylan and wish that he was not so independent that he would let me wear him more but I did it because he felt secure and he knew that his momma was right there no matter where he went. Rear-facing, I made it 26 months and wish it was longer. I made a compromise; I do intend on extended harnessing Keylan though. And I love my whole son! There is nothing wrong with the natural anatomy of the male body! The circumcision rates are dropping so when he is old enough to be changing in the locker room there will be more boys that are intact then circumcised. It is an unnecessary procedure that the American Academy of Pediatrics is against it. I have never shoved my opinions down anyone's throat nor will I. But when I see a post that I am adamant about I will speak up and say something; whether it be through experience or research.
