Yeah! They use to do that in our elementary school - We didn't know it was iodine, but we called it the wicked orange goo - it made us really careful not to get hurt!

i hear iodine is very painful, after some really minor surgery a doctor/nurse put a piece of "dry iodine" on thewound and i dident feel a thing.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
