When I hear my friends talking about potty training their toddlers, I have to giggle a little. You see, Angeline is 16, and long past the potty training phase! Potty training was actually pretty simple for us, but what came after was the hard part: teaching her to wipe herself.
I can't be the only parent who dreaded that, "Mommy, come wipe my butt!" appeal from behind the closed bathroom door, can I?
Much to our good fortune, flushable cleansing cloths were invented right around the time that Angeline was old enough to wipe herself. Most of her hesitation about wiping herself was due to the fact that regular toilet paper didn't get her all the way clean - and you know how important clean butts are to little girls - well, to boys and grown ups too, but in this case, it was the little butt we were concerned with. Once we taught her to use the flushable cleansing cloths, it was much easier for her to wipe herself...and no panties were ruined in the process!
Fast forward a decade later, and we are still using those flushable cleansing cloths! What can I say, if it's not broken, don't fix it! The entire family got used to using them, and why would we stop being as clean as possible? We use the Cottonelle Clean Care Routine and it works for us!
I headed down to Walmart to pick up a fresh supply of Cottonelle CleanCare toilet paper and Cottonelle Fresh Care cleansing cloths the other day, and I even had a coupon to sweeten the already low-priced deal! You can check your local Sunday paper for coupons, or go right to the source at Cottonelle.com for coupons!
Even though Angeline is a teenager now, it's still just as important to us all to be nice and clean. I know that many people view toilet paper as just one more thing you add to your grocery list, but quality really does matter! The right toilet paper can make a big difference, not just in comfort, but in cleanliness too!
The right toilet paper is thick and soft, without leaving a lot of lint behind. Because let's face it, toilet paper lint is gross. You don't have to worry about that with Cottonelle CleanCare Toilet Paper and Fresh Care cleansing cloths!
We always keep a supply of Cottonelle CleanCare toilet paper and Fresh Care cleansing cloths in the bathroom to keep ourselves fresh and clean. For those of you in humid climates like we are in South Florida, you know how important it is to stay absolutely clean down there during the hot months (which is almost always).
For those unfamiliar with 90% humidity? There's this thing that happens when it's hot and humid out...it's called Swamp Butt.
And it's gross.
Using the Cottonelle Clean Care Routine and staying totally clean down there helps us avoid a nasty case of Swamp Butt during the summer!
If you are still potty training, I highly recommending using the Cottonelle Clean Care Routine in your own home.
Using a good quality toilet paper and cleansing cloths makes it so much easier for the little ones to wipe themselves without getting their hands dirty! The moist cleansing cloths can help them feel more confident about having a clean bum when they are done!

Swamp butt is gross. We have that humidity here in MA over the summer, but it's nothing compared to what you guys get in Florida....and we'll be down there this August, right in the height of it this year.
Amy Desrosiers
I hate swamp butt! We always use moist wipes to finish up. I currently have two three bums to clean clean here!
Jenn
I bet you go through a lot of wet wipes! LOL!
Jennifer Bullock {MommyBKnowsBest}
With two girls I don't know what it's like too much with boys and potty, but I know we want to make sure their girl bits are nice and clean. Sometimes they don't wipe the best so these wipes are awesome!!!
Liz @ A Nut in a Nutshell
I've never heard of swamp butt, but I sure don't want it! I'll make sure to keep stocking up on my wipes too!
Hanan
Haha, I've never heard the term swamp butt before! That must be a South thing? I love my babies, but I can't wait to be done potty training!
Jessica
SWAMP BUTT! That's had my cracking up. That's exactly what we call it around here. My daughter used to have a serious case of swamp butt when we were coming to the end of the potty training phase. She used to always have a problem making it to the toilet in time and it was an awful mess. Thank goodness for wipes!
Shell
Giggling at swamp butt(Hubs calls it something else when the kids aren't around to hear). These wipes work really well!
Angie | Big Bear's Wife
hahaha Swamp Butt, I didn't know people in other areas used that expression LOL. Love the tips and the wipes!
Janeane Davis
Toilet paper is an important item on the grocery market list. You are right in that it is an area where quality matters a great deal.
Rachee
LOL at Swamp butt! My boyfriend is big on wipes but they seemed indulgent to me. I love them now and have added them to my shopping staples.
Chelsea
Hahahhaha- swamp butt is such a fitting name for such a gross thing!!! I've never heard it before, hilarious. I love thick toilet paper too, can't stand using the scratchy 1ply stuff!
Mandy@ TheHouseholdHero.com
Funny! I guess I am in the minority here, But I am one who doesn't care much about the brand of my toilet paper. If it on sale it's mine that week!
Felicia
These are awesome! They are such a great tool for the young ones too.
Tess
I have to add that I m not picky either about the toilet paper brand. lol. It does have to be soft.
Kecia
I have never heard the term Swamp Butt but it's so appropriate for the situation! My 3 year old is potty trained - except for wiping himself. And I agree, it's not fun to go in there 1-2 times each day to do the job for him!
Chrysa
I have never heard of swamp butt before, but I sure don't want it! That's a great Vudu offer!
Jaime
Swamp butt sounds disgusting (and is so funny to say.) We're in the early days of potty training. UGH.
Christina S
I wish we could get potty trained! I love the flushable wipes though! I know they'll come in handy!
Theresa
Using the Cottonelle Flushable Wipes was such a smooth transition into using toilet paper during potty training. My girls were so used to baby wipes, it was only natural for them to use the Cottonelle Wipes during toilet use too!
Candyp
We love Cottonelle! I'll be wiping butts herein a few months while potty training my 2 yr old.. blah!
Ashley - Embracing Beauty
I totally feel like hugging you right now!!! I'm in the potty training stage with my little girl and it never dawned on me to use these wipes. I mean, we have them but didn't think about using them for her. She hates toilet paper after being used to her sensitive baby wipes. Btw, the name swamp butt totally cracked me up! How fitting.
Melissa
I NEED to get these wipes! My 6 year old still asks me to wipe his butt sometimes haha!
Debbie Lamb
Swamp Butt - very cute saying. No swap butt here!
Billie Hillier
You had me at swamp butt... I couldn't resist reading with that title.
Rosey
I'm headed over to Cottonelle to see if they have any coupons today. Thanks for the share, we like this brand quite a bit!
April
I had to laugh when you said swamp butt! Too funny! We use cottonelle at our house. I really do think it's the best.
Janel
You are definitely not alone! The best is when we are over at a friends and their son yelled it out! "Dad, I need your help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" from the bathroom.
Eliz Frank
You had me laughing on Swamp Butt! Cottonelle is terrific and the wipes make a difference too. 🙂
Autumn
We love Cottonelle! A fresh and clean bum is something everyone should strive for, right? And swamp butt - hilarious! 🙂
Piera
OMG this is too funny! We actually had the same experience - potty training = easy! Wiping? Not so much. We love the wipes though!
Ashley
Swamp but is the worst! My husband works outside during the hottest parts of the summer and has to shower sometimes twice a day to beat it!
Kenda Smith
Swamp butt has to be one of the grossest things in the world. We use Cottonelle and wipes - and wow, what a difference it makes!
Cassie @ Southeast by Midwest
Cottonelle is the only toilet paper that we use in our house. We tried changing to a cheaper toilet paper to save money but we found that we used way more which ultimately meant we spent more. Cottonelle is reasonably priced and you get done what needs to be done without using a whole roll.
Paige
I've never heard of swamp butt....and I definitely don't want it!
Lynne
I've never heard the term swamp butt either, but man is it super-descriptive. Thanks also for the info on how to get the $5 code - I am always looking for ways to stretch our entertainment budget!
