You keep the world's goo at bay.
A noble duty.
As I was feeding Gabe his bottle this evening before bed he started squirming. Squirming lead to crying. Crying lead to farting. Farting lead to patented explosive digested material projection. While I've had some close calls in the past, I now have practical experience in dodging fecal matter while at the same time catching it on approved surfaces, such as the re-usable diapers we use for all sorts of handy tasks.
If there is any one unsung hero of the baby product world, it would have to be the cotton diaper. Even if you never to intend to use them as diapers, they are just so handy to have around. To start with they are the pawns on the stain front. I could care less if they get stained or if they need to get shredded and tossed onto the compost heap when they are no longer salvageable. They handle spit-up, drying the baby after using wet wipes, drool wiping, emergency poo or pee containment, napkin duty, tissue substitute, cough sound dampening, peekaboo barrier, and more.
If I had known about them in college I definitely would have bought a package for cleanup duty as they are way more absorbent than most 'dish' towels. Party foul, no problem! Slap a cloth diaper on it. A true multi-purpose tool for the ages.
