Bidet or Diaper sprayer?

Normally we use diaper liners with our son. Today he just pooped so I put a new diaper on him with no liner. And then pooped again. I was pretty mad at myself and now I have scrub it all out in our dump sink. ICK!

So now we're looking at diaper sprayers. We found a bidet handheld on Home Depot for $40 that allows you to adjust the setting to get a more forceful "wash". Will that work just as well?

Yup

same exact thing, no need to get one marketed to CDers... sprayers are awesome. I made sure to get one with adjustable pressure and it is great. We don't have a handheld shower head so I have used it to spray off sandy feet, extra disgusting poopy bottoms, and cleaners in the tub too (our toilet is right next to the tub). I have also heard they are good for postpartum but the nicer version for that hooks up to the sink so you can get warm water too.

Ah! Good to know! Bidet sprayers with adjustable levels seem to run about $20 cheaper than cloth diaper sprayers

which bidet sprayer for you have, shen?

I am a sucker and got a "diaper sprayer" from Nickis

I forget the brand but it has a little knob on the handle on a small track that controls the pressure. I wanted something ready for DH to install that would take minimal effort for me to acquire, since I was getting morning sickness and abruptly decided that dunk-and-swish was no longer the way to go

Diaper Sprayers a few facts: No Diaper Sprayer on the market was manufactured for that purpose; they are all originally Hand Held Bidet Sprayers. That is why so many people are complaining about their sprayers breaking, because they were not made to handle the abuse. You can save money and buy a cheap plastic sprayer and then need to buy another one soon or you can get a Stainless Steel Sprayer at BathroomSprayers.c for a little more that will last, it comes with a 5 year warranty. And don't forget, using it as a Hand Bidet means you will save money on toilet paper, everyday....forever....Just a thought

I have a mini shower hand-held bidet. It's exactly the same as the BumGenius diaper sprayer. Adjustable sprayer. Perfect! I used it for postpartum cleaning too. When your lady bits are swollen and icky, you're not gonna want to touch them with toilet paper! Haha. Of course, yeah, the water is cold. But I thought it felt ok. Then button on my sprayer got stuck, but there is a lifetime warranty on the button, so they immediately sent me a new button.

Where did you get your from and how much did it cost? my next step is to buy a 'diaper sprayer' and I am debating which one is best. I like the idea of a lifetime warranty

I got mine at my baby shower. But my aunt got it for me off of amazon.com I believe. Or else she got it at her local CD store (jealous that she even has one near her!!) I know at the store and an amazon at the time it was $38 or $39.

I tried to get just the one picture, but I think all the search pictures come up. Hopefully it goes right to the one I have. I think it says on there it's from sears.com, but I checked the price there and it's insanely priced at over 90 bucks!
