I'm a newbie here, but a mom of 4 and a nurse.

I second the warm warm stimulating things, and at this point it might have become an asssociation, the other thought I had is, are you holding him and possibly compressing his tummy some?

the other thing is realistically you are at very little risk of catching a germ from him unless he has loose stools. most likely any bacteria in his gut are the same in your gut. I know it doesn't remove the yuck factor but there is little chance you health or his is at risk.


also Target carries the washable swim diapers for less than many online sites and they do fit more snuggly than the disposable.
