….And a new Guiness World record was made.

On April 20th, 2013, Snug Glee Bumz Diaper Service was proud to host the Great Cloth Diaper Change and Natural Nurturing Expo.  This was a Guiness World Record attempt for most babies changed at one time around the world and a chance to raise awareness about cloth in communities.  Parents of children in diapers pre-registered and some registered at the door for what we hoped would be a part of history.  And it was.  This was the third year for the record to be attempted, initiated by the Real Diaper Association, and a new record has been set each year.  This was the 2nd year that Snug Glee Bumz Diaper Service has hosted however, last year, we were one shy at 24 of counting toward the official record so this year is was our goal to increase awareness and our numbers.

Because this event was a Guiness World record breaking event, we had to follow some guidelines and do things just so to be counted.  At a few minutes to 11, Dawnica asked that diapers be raised in the air, at 11 the whistle blew and then parents and babies enjoyed participated in the change.  34 in total took part, documented by our official witnesses, Joanna Nemrava from Mighty Oak Midwifery and Melissa Carlin, our cloth diaper expert.

The new record now sits at 8 301 babies being changed at the same time around the world.  There were a total of 180 sites that qualified for the record by having at least 25 participants at their site.  There were 84 cities that hosted event that did not qualify.  The unofficial count of babies changed at events held worldwide was 10 029.

Along with the change, we had several vendors present for a Natural Nurturing Expo, entertainers that provided yoga, zumba and drumming sessions and also a photobooth provided by Optical Delusions.  Over 60 diapers were donated to Cloth for a cause as well.

We thank all those who attended the event and the many businesses that were a part of it.  We are already excited and planning for next year!!
