Mama Brain: The Straight Poop About Wipe Warmers
Seriously? Is a baby’s butt really THAT sensitive to temperature?
In fact, I have the exact opposite view: a baby’s hot bum sits in warm pee and poop quite a bit, also it’s often trapped in some sort of fabric (or plastic) – a veritable breeding ground for bacteria and skin rashes. Application of a nice, cool cloth is probably downright refreshing. Also, my babies have never cried or wriggled in alarm at said application, so I don’t think they mind.
A rival for the title of the most useless machine ever, I bring to you:
The Baby Wipe Warmer
As always, just my opinion, but my wallet is happy not to have to squeeze out extra dough for this extra accessory and my brain also relieved to skip the maintenance of one more piece of equipment. If you want to stand up for this product’s non-uselessness, feel free to do so in the comments section.

I couldn’t agree more. They are a waste of money and definitely not a necessity. Thankfully I didn’t waste any money on one.
I love your blog and I actually passed on an award (well three) to you. http://www.measmom.com/and-the-awards-go-to/

Hmmmmm; I dunno’ how I did that. I clicked to comment about that tasty little dish you were makin’ an’ here I am, commenting on the value or worthlessness of a bum warmer… so to speak. Well, I dunno’ how I would feel now, but when I lived in an ice-cold, one-room house in high desert that we couldn’t get warm under ANY circumstances, I would have been very glad to have such a device. Perhaps those little icicles on the bedspread would have gone away, once in awhile, ya’ think? LOL
