Please help put someone right.
One my colleauges is pregnant with her 1st child and she is EXTREMELY critical of how anyone else raises their child. Things like.... apparently I will have damaged ds's spine coz I had a Britax Travel System..... babies should lie FLAT until they are 12 weeks old (EH??).... baby wipes are apparently terrible for babies skin and they leave a horrible residue (there was me thinking that was moisturiser!).

The latest one is...

Disposable nappies, especially Huggies (the ones I use surprisingly enough) can cause infertility in men, asthma and excema!
Apparently the research is being done in Germany according to her midwife.

Tell me this is a lot of bollocks please.

I must add that my DS' testicles did not come into the decision to switch to cloth nappies, I personally don't find them any more hassle than disps, when I used disps I didn't drop the poo in the loo and I don't have a dog, one of the big reasons being that I wouldn't like to have to pick poo up in little bags when I am out for a walk.

There seems to be quite a number of American parents that do this infant potty training, try searching on Google, scary!
