Wool vs PUL vs disposable summer experiment...

[monkeybunns]

I'm writing a wool post for my blog and as a guest blogger and I've totally searched high and low for a blog post I saw last year in which it gives the full details about a teen that did a science experiment comparing the temperature inside of a baby's diaper (the teen's sibling) to compare the types of diapers. I want a link to the actual source so I can cite that instead of just she said/she said info to back my story up. Anyways does anyone know what I'm talking about that may have it bookmarked? I lost my bookmarks in computer switching...Here's one DS thread that mentions it: http://www.diaperswappers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=395661 (Quote from second post)

Cloth diaper temps 4 days in a row the afternoon temp reach almost 90*, each day we tried different diapering combos. Here are his results: After 15 minutes outside, temp inside the diaper: Disposables 102.5* FB 101.5* Fleece pocket 100* fitted with fleece shorts 98.5 pinned prefold with fleece shorts 97* fitted with wool shorts 96* pinned prefold with wool shorts 95.5* just a fitted 95* just a pinned prefold 94*

Thanks!!!

I think maybe it was a replication of the experiment perhaps?

This article has a reference to a different source (#8), specifically from research done on boys.

If you can get this article and read Japanese...?

Thank you! Not wool related but very interesting and I can certainly use them in other blog posts!

Actually I did find a way to work it all in!!! Yay! Thanks!!!

Oh yeah if anyone else knows where I can find the blog post I originally mentioned I'd still love that!

Did anyone find the source? I'd live to have something tangible to show the naysayers. I'm so tired of my sposie-using friends and family criticizing me for putting my DD in that "hot" wool right now. If I put her in anything else she gets terrible rashes and she seems happy in them.

I would love the original source for this too! I live in Hawaii and everyone thinks my fleece and wool is awful torture for DS. He never complains except in a disposable. Then he cries and tries to remove it lol.

On my smart phone which is clearly not as smart as it seems to believe

Such cool info! Thanks! I cant imagine my poor man suffering with a 102 degree bum.

YES! I would love this as well, my mom HATES my wool because "it's just WAY to hot for that poor baby!" and my favorite comment she makes - "your going to cook her eggs"
