We are giving away 4 packs of Wet Ones for hands and face to one lucky reader, winner will be announced on Saturday.  All you have to do is comment on this post for a chance to win.  BTW, I am hooked on these Wet Ones, they fit in the cupholder in my car so I can always keep my hands clean.  If you find it odd that I get this excited about clean hands please keep reading, today’s post is from a guest blogger who can explain and be blamed for why I am a total neat freak.

I called my daughter, the Pregnant Girl blogger, to tell her I’m not speaking to her.

Daughter (D):   Why?  (I’m sure with an eye roll.)

Mom (M):   Because you had a guest blogger and I want to be a guest blogger!

D:   You’re in luck.  A vendor just called and wants to send me some wipes and I need to blog about them.

M:  Wipes?  What kind of wipes?  I love wipes.  Wipes make everything clean.

D:   I don’t know.  I haven’t received them.  I’m busy, I’ll call you later.

M:  The call never came so I took matters into my own hands and started preparing for my blog about “Wipes”.

Later that evening, I was telling my husband about the potential blogging gig I got.  I’m so excited.  I might get to blog about wipes.  This should be easy because everyone loves to be clean.  Not everyone loves clean like you do, he said.    The next day I Googled “baby wipes”.  I got 1,690,000 results.  That tells me someone likes to be clean besides me.  There’s even a recipe on how to make baby wipes at home – ick!  Did you know Brad Pitt keeps fresh with baby wipes – who cares?  I guess I’m getting off subject on my first and perhaps last blogging job.

What does a new mom need to look for in a wipe?  In addition to the numerous types of wipes there are also countless brands to choose from.  So, I say if you have brand loyalty, stick with the brand you like.  As far as the type of wipe, I’m just overwhelmed and discouraged by too much info.  Read on:

There are eco-friendly wipes, natural aloe wipes, hypoallergenic wipes, non-toxic wipes, unscented wipes, wet wipes, homemade wipes, wipes with no harsh chemicals, flushable wipes, wipes you can warm, natural wipes, soft skin wipes, shea butter wipes, non-woven fabric wipes, organic cotton wipes, lightly scented wipes, premoistened wipes, soft and thick wipes, triple value pack wipes, wipes for breastfeeding, chlorine free wipes,  wipes for the face, wipes for the tushie, cloth wipes, cotton wipes, wipes by Huggies, Pampers, Luvs, Target, Johnson & Johnson, Rite Aid, Wal-Mart, and on and on and on. 

Wow, I had no idea there are so many choices out there.  When the Pregnant Girl blogger was a baby I put a wet wash cloth in a plastic bag and off we went.  I used it on her face first and tushie last!
