Since enuresis (bedwetting) tends to run in families, it is not that
surprising that 4 of my 5 potty trained children still have trouble
making it through the night without an accident. I didn't start to gain
nighttime bladder control until I was a teenager! There are lots of
products available now to help make life easier for a child who wets
the bed. All of the major diaper manufacturers have a pullup type
disposable pant for those who struggle with bedwetting. But what if you
are not of the disposable mindset and are looking for cheaper or
greener alternatives? Using cloth pants as an alternative to
disposables for bedwetters is good for the environment and good for
your wallet. Cloth pants for bedwetters can be hard to find, but they
are available. Tags: enuresis bedwetting bedwetters cloth diapers pullups |

One of the easiest ways every American
family can reduce energy use in their home as well as green house gas
emissions that contribute to global climate change that affects our
world's resources is to start using Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFL).
CFL bulbs help reduce energy costs and protect the environment.

We are always looking for ways to save money, and of course do our bit
for the environment, so why not combine the two? There are many ways we
can cut down on energy consumption that will reduce fuel bills and
therefore that “carbon footprint” we hear so much about today. You can actually be a green mom while saving some cash.
