Definitely terrifying to my wallet! Please note this is absolutely not a dig at disposable diaper users. Even when I used 100% disposable diapers, I still hated throwing all that money away!

As much as I’m not one to jump on the bandwagon on controversial topics, seeing ‘“hot mom defends herself against Facebook ‘haters'” struck a nerve. Really, I hate that I let this get under my skin!
3 under 3. I’m not sure if the implication is that if she (Maria Kang, the woman in the photo) looks like this after having three children in such a short time, or if it’s that she finds the time to work out with 3 little ones, you have no excuse. Maybe both. I think it was intended to be motivational, not malicious, but I have issues with the message and its effect on women.
Based on her website’s FAQs, she seems to have an awful lot of support. She spends 30-60 minutes at the gym (she says she likes to get there by 6:30) while her children are sleeping, getting them up at 8 (many of us don’t get that much time to ourselves in a day!) and clearly someone watches her children while she visits the residential facilities she owns, and has meetings, because I don’t see that going well with 3 children in tow. Having that kind of support alone would be huge. According to the Yahoo article, her husband does not work, and I can only assume that he is helping with laundry, dishes and child care, not sleeping until noon and playing video games.

Note: This post speaks humorously about the fun things involved with “full-term”/”extended”/toddler breastfeeding. If this offends you, back away now.
I nursed my first two children until approximately age 2. I think it’s time I laid out some ground rules for my 1-year old when “dining at Mom’s.”

Step 1: Hold Bagel in hand
Step 2: Apply to face (important, have Mom periodically clean the cream cheese out of your nostrils.)
Step 3: Repeat
Step 4: Throw Bagel on floor
Enjoy!

Maria wants to live in a world where cloth diapers are the norm and moms can make parenting choices without judgement. When she’s not chasing her 18, 14 and 11-year old kids around, you might find her checking out the latest gadgets, organizing something (again) or exercising in the fresh air.
