Add warmer clothing to your baby’s wardrobe
As the weather is continuing to get a little cooler every day, it is time to start thinking about adding a few heavier pieces of baby clothing to your baby’s wardrobe. The ideal pieces to add might include a organic cotton cardigan sweater that has buttons from top to bottom and comes with matching baby pants with a gusseted crotch. Or perhaps it would be nice to add the organic cotton cable knit sweater for your little girl. This pullover style sweater is soft, natural and thick and is made in India from long staple certified organic cotton with two natural tagua nut buttons on the shoulder.
These items are a convenient way to keep your baby warm in addition to the long sleeve, lap shoulder bodysuits that are made of study, silky soft 100% organic Indiana cotton fabric. These bodysuits/onesies are made with double stitched seams, nickle-free snaps and no poly tags for the comfort of your baby.
Organic 4 piece jumpsuit/onesie gift set
Knowing that my daughter is going to have another boy, I asked my 2 1/2 year old grandson what he thought the new baby’s name should be. He responded immediately “Super Brother”. Now that we know our new grandson “Super Brother” will need his own identity, we have looked at baby gift sets for him.
The 4 piece layette set is a great start. This cute “boy design” set includes an adorable footie pajama, jumpsuit/onesie, baby bib, and topee cap that are all made from silky soft Indian cotton with a shiny viscose trim. All seams are flat stitched for a baby’s comfort and the snaps are nickel free. More importantly, all items are 100% organic cotton with no harmful chemicals. Every new baby should be receive such a wonderful set.
Use flannel cradle sheets this winter
organic cradle sheets
Now that Thanksgiving is passed and the winter is getting near, it is time to think about preparing a cradle for a new baby. For those who are starting their new baby in a cradle, there are several choices for organic cradle sheets. Each cradle sheet is fitted with elastic all around to keep them in place.
Nothing is better than the feel of these luxurious soft and light cotton cradle sheets. You can choose a 330 thread count silky sateen, a soft furry fleece or lightweight flannel. Your baby will love the special treatment he will be getting.
Shaped cloth diapers are more convenient
For those who are not all that comfortable with the traditional diapers, you might want to consider the shaped plush organic cotton sherpa diaper. This diaper is very durable and will last a lot longer than the flannel ones. These shaped diapers are super absorbent and fit easily into a standard velcro diaper cover or any other diaper cover.
As with other organic cotton products, there is never a reason to worry about the harsh chemicals or dyes coming in contact with your wet baby. Once you have tried these shaped cloth diapers, you will love the convenience of using them on your baby.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING
I hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable Thanksgiving with family and friends. .
Organic baby bibs for Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is tomorrow and it is best to have your baby prepared for the big “feast”. You should have plenty of organic baby bibs on hand to catch all the spills and slobbers. It is best to have the organic baby bibs so that when you need to wipe the mess from your baby’s face, you will not be exposing him to the harsh chemicals and dyes that are normally used in other bibs.
To be even more prepared, you should have a supply of organic cotton muslin burp cloths on hand. Even if your baby is not old enough to eat with the rest of the family, the baby bib and burp cloths are always necessary to have on hand.
Baby onesies made with comfort in mind
Many items of baby clothing are now being made with the baby’s comfort in mind. Long sleeve organic cotton onesies are made from high quality medium weight organic cotton interlock. All the seams are double stitched for durability. These baby onesies have no uncomfortable poly tags to irritate your baby and have only nickel-free snaps at the crouch to hold the onesies in place.
As other organic baby clothes, you can be sure that there is no irritation from chemical additives or harsh dyes as only low impact eco-dyes are used in the coloring. Baby onesies can also be matched with coordinating baby caps and natural booties.
Opt for organic nursery sets
Make it easier on yourself when trying to shop for your organic nursery. You can choose to buy three and four piece sets where each piece is a coordinate. Your baby will have a natural healthy and soothing sleep environment that is free of harmful chemicals and off-gassing. Each item is made from the highest quality natural and unbleached 100% organic cotton percale.
Four piece sets include a comforter, bumper pad, crib sheet and a box skirt style crib skirt with a flat panel and single pleat in the center. The comforter and bumper pad is filled with wool to insulate against heat and cold which creates a climate zone that wicks away excess moisture. Each of these items are naturally hypoallergenic because they resist the buildup of harmful allergens. Choosing the organic options promotes the healthy sound sleep for your baby.
