The Ultimate Natural, Non-Toxic and as Organic as Possible List of Baby Stuff

Uncategorized May 23, 2023

Ok so this was not on my list of things to do buttttt babies and their tiny bodies are most susceptible to toxins and of the other Non-toxic, organic, natural baby registries I could find they were all out dated, like from 2020 or before where most of the products I couldn't even find and I wandered what was new/better or they were priced so high (yes you get what you pay for) but I couldn't register for them and send the list out to friends and family who couldn't afford to spend hundreds...

So here we are 20+ hours later...

Also let me just preface with I'm a first time Mama to be so this is based on research from ingredients, certifications etc but also asking other Mama's their experience with products and what they actually used and loved!

Also these are clickable links to add to your cart or baby registry! (no I'm not just asking for baby gifts, this isn't my actual registry haha)

So why Natural, Non-Toxic, Organic, anyways?

Specifically, the ingredients in most conventional products are man-made. And the majority of them cannot be broken down by our bodies. Meaning, our systems just don’t understand what to do with them. These ingredients cause alterations to our hormones, our digestive system, and how our bodies function as a whole.

Now break that down for a newborn baby. The six main chemicals used in baby products (phthalates, talc, proplyene glycol, parabens, 1,4-dioxane and methylated surfants, formaldehyde) can cause:

Skin irritations
Digestive trouble
Allergies
Hormone disruptions
Developmental disorders
Far more

To get started:

1. I always start by searching for" organic"

2. Then search for items "certified" (GOTS-Global Organic Textile Standard certified Greenguard certified, Oeko-Tek certified)

3. Then I look on EWG (Environmental Working Group) Skin Deep Database (www.ewg.org/skindeep) for products and some food/beverage (you can also scan barcodes and take it with you on the go with the app)

4. I then try to search for ingredients and look for the least possible and easiest to pronounce

But in case you didn't want to spend 20+ hours on this here's what's on my baby registry!
