actually it never should be latex--
excessive exposure to latex can cause big problems.....
at least be sure they are powdered.....
ok mother is back to work now
Okay, okay.. you guys are focusing too much on the latex. Walgreens has some non-latex ones in a box right next to the latex.. they're a little more expensive, but as a bonus, they're a pretty purple colour!
As for washing your hands after.. ewwwwwwwww! Better to have no poo on, than to wash poo off I say.
