Congratulations on the new addition to your growing family. You will find that having a baby is both life changing and magical. There are some parents out there that are under the impression that any baby product from a store’s shelf today is safe for their baby. However, this is not true. In fact, a surprising number of baby products contain harmful ingredients that have long term side effects.  Be sure you look to a natural baby company that provides natural baby products, such as, natural baby shampoo, conditioners, moisturizers and herbal remedies. In this article, we will highlight some of the important reasons why you should choose all natural baby products.

Thankfully, nature has been kind enough to give you nine months to prepare for having a baby.  During this time, you will be able to conduct research and discover the various do’s and don’ts when it comes to baby products.  Below, you are going to find a list of ingredients that you should steer away from when it comes to your baby’s products.

The first ingredient to beware of is phthalates. Phthalates are chemicals that are potentially harmful for your infant’s skin and reproductive system. They can be found in bath and body products, including conditioners, shampoos, lotions, baby powders and even on children’s toys.

You should also avoid mineral oil, also known as baby oil. Many advertisements out there will tell you that they are great for your baby’s skin as they moisturize it.  However, what you may not know is the fact that mineral oil can have harmful effects on your baby’s skin. Mineral oil is known for dehydrating babies’ skin and can even cause baby diaper rash in some cases.  This is because it prevents the natural moisture from being absorbed into their skin.  A good all natural diaper rash cream will help in this case.  Natural baby care products are always the best choice for your baby.

Lanolin is another ingredient to stay away from. This is derived from sheep and is generally used as a moisturizer or in diaper rash cream. The scary part of this ingredient is the fact that it could contain pesticides and it is becoming a wider known skin irritant. Natural baby skin care products free of lanolin are the best choice for your infant.

All natural baby products are free of harmful ingredients that could seriously affect your baby’s health and well being.  Natural ingredients are not only safer, but often times they are less expensive, though it is generally believed that they are more expensive- this is a common misconception.   Concerned mothers look to natural baby care companies that offer safe, all natural baby care products.  The fact is that synthetic  products have more side effects due to the harmful ingredients they contain.

A good all natural baby product to help reduce colic in baby’s is Baby’s Bliss™ Gripe Water – an all natural, herbal supplement, safe for your  baby’s sensitive tummy.  It is made with organic fennel and ginger with sodium bicarbonate and fructose. The Gripe Water should be given to baby when it appears that he or she is becoming uncomfortable, especially after eating, as this tends to be the time when we see colic in babies.  All natural baby products are the best way to ensure the optimal health of your baby.

About Baby’s Bliss™ and Mommy’s Bliss™: Baby’s Bliss™ and Mommy’s Bliss™ is a U.S Corporation with offices in San Rafael, California, just north of San Francisco. The company began in 1999 when Roshan Kaderali, CEO and founder, formulated Baby’s Bliss™ Gripe Water-the first and the original all natural colic remedy in the States. The product quickly gained popularity and the company now has two full lines of product, Baby’s Bliss™ and Mommy’s Bliss™ dedicated to bringing bliss to families … naturally.

Everything for this baby blanket can be bought at Michaels or a similar craft store in your area: www.youtube.com I used this embroidery technique as well (the backstitch) because I did not have a crochet hook at the time and needed something to give some extra bulk so my design would have that NY hat look. If you have a crochet hook DON’T watch this video, this is just if you’re roughing like I was with only an embroidery needle lol!
