Something Less Disgusting Than Baby Alive?

[kransden]

DD went to a birthday party and now wants a Baby Alive doll. She actually has not expressed a wish for anything beyond a Zhu Zhu pet. I think BAs are creepy and disgusting due to the cleaning "issues".

Does anyone have any alternatives?

Well, we have a Corolle Baby Paul for DS (hoping it helps with pt'ing), and I actually had something similar myself back in the 70's because my mom was disgusted by Baby Alive as well. Cleaning up a doll that wets is loads different than a doll that eats! Is your DD too old for the Corolle Emma? I really don't have a feel for older kids, so maybe this is not a useful suggestion.
