Inuit babies
I guess we had a long day and were starting to think a little strangely... Nils asked me very seriously, how do the Inuit change their babies diapers? Isn't it too cold to get the baby naked and change a diaper? Good question! I tried to find some info and found that maybe they go diaper free or use sealskin. "Diaper-free parents around the world learn the telltale signs of elimination. For example, a squirm, a particular cry, a certain glint in the eye. We take the infant to a-potty or hold him over a toilet or sink or a tree and say "pee-pee" or make a "ssss" sound - this is baby's signal to let go. Some parents also use sign language."
