To wonder if this is what people mean by gentle parenting

Not sure why a one year old wouldn't have a nappy on as she clearly is not Notts trained at that age my one year old would be become destressed to be constantly wet

And what's the no medication about surely social service would become involved if they got very ill and parents did noting

Very odd

Well sheep are vegans and they eat the afterbirth so as to deter predators and maybe for other reasons. I'm sure our ancient forebears would not have survived if they had lugged their babies' placentas with them. None of it makes any sense.

Guinea pigs, too, completely vegan & scoff the placenta.

What is the fine in Brighton Council for dumping HUMAN WASTE directly into the sea?

In cultures where they maintain the placenta after cutting the cord, a tradition exists for the placenta to be buried to the right side of the front door for a male and the left side for a female. My husband and I lived in a block of flats at the time so did not have this option and decided we much preferred the idea of returning the placenta back to the land through the sea rather than burying it. As we love to travel, the sea is a symbol of adventure and freedom, a life I hope Ulysses has the opportunity to experience someday

Brighton beachgoers: that's not a jellyfish folks!

:o at astrological contraception. Or maybe they go for an organic diaphragm - an emptied half lemon peel like in days of yore. :)

Since she seems to think that because it happened in the past, or happens in other parts of the world it must be by default trendier and more out there better than what we've got on offer here in the Western world, here's some ideas for "off grid contraception":

Vaginal inserts – There are records of Ancient Egyptian women using vaginal inserts or pessaries made of acidic substances to kill sperm and Tudor women did make use of inserts like wool soaked in vinegar or bundles of herbs which aimed at killing the sperm or making the woman’s body less hospitable. Barrier methods like wooden blocks, stones and beeswax were also used as cervical caps- ouch!

Charms and amulets – It was thought that wearing amulets made of particular animal body parts, like weasel testicles, or out of herbs would protect the wearer from conceiving.

Condoms made out of animal intestines did appear in some countries in the 17th century but it does not appear that Tudor men made use of them.

Bold fail

Fascinating stuff! I think we can safely rule out the animal intestine ones for vegan users :)

Would the lemon peel not sting?

And would you not need to be roomy?

So, are we concluding "vegan" yarn (aka nasty polyester) soaked in organic apple cider vinegar then?

Vegan yarn made from lentils?

It's far more likely that they used the rhythm method (i.e. avoid sex during fertile times) than were messing around with ye olde contraceptives.

Knit your own tofu contraceptives?

That wouldn't be blog/TV/dailyfail worthy though MrsJoey, and you don't get a title if you do the rythem method, you just get on with it

She'll have to do something that gives her a title (like clothbumMum, baby wearer) if she's going to sell her next story

Like…. My husband and I practice yarn contraception, We're off grid yarn contraceptioners, it takes 5 hours to prepare before we can start foreplay, but we thing it's worth it cause we read online that some tribe somewhere sometime did it, it brings us closer together (literaly, when it goes wrong and the yarn tightens round his bell end! )

Oh, almost certainly he pulls out. Adding to the skank on the floor - baby pee, semen...

This thread has deviated to a strange place...

A choice between some natural shit that will sting the fuck out of my minge. Or go without until ready to conceive?
Err. The shower gel with the mint was bad enough.
No wonder they look so fucking miserable and are so obsessed about this off the grid bollocks.
They need to focus on something else because they are so horny.. Also makes sense why they are co-sleeping and the
Eldest one decides his own bedtime. I would come up with a million alternative lifestyle choices.. Cannot be a picnic for him. The lemon, vinegar whatever must burn his cock as well.

That'll be Friday night idliketobe

She isn't vegan - she promotes using non-vegan alternatives (honey, for example) when ill, and she wrote somewhere something vague and wishy washy about not adhering to one diet fits all. I don't think their footwear is vegan either.

Regarding contraception, probably just didn't get pregnant for a while as she was still BFing the boy for so long.

According to Adele's blog, they have been heavily influenced by The Sundance Family.

The Sundance family appear to be a hippy forever living; Raw food cures asthma, rather than Aloe Vera etc. Mr Sundance is, apparently, a business coach, who has touched millions of lives. Who will coach you so you can work from anywhere in the world as long as you have access to a laptop, work the hours you chose etc. So multi level marketing in a tie dyed t-shirt.

Any guesses to where they are based? I just hope their kids have had their vaccinations.

After reading about the sundance family, wonder how they feel.
They seem to be on a you have to work to earn mindset. You can work wherever you are, so stay the fuck away from us. To get you cash you have to produce something.

Breastfeeding an older child is not an effective contraceptive.

Breastfeeding does tend to delay the return of periods and fertility, but it's really no substitute for other contraceptive methods if you want to avoid pregnancy. It certainly shouldn't be relied on once you've started weaning or baby has started going more than 4 hours between feeds.

I'm 20 weeks pregnant now, and still breastfeeding an almost 3 yr old toddler. I know plenty of people who've breastfed babies and toddlers of varying ages all the way through pregnancy.

Any guesses to where they are based?

Utah?

So is MrA's life coaching one of those MLM lifecoaching shindigs?
