Check out this great post on Z Recommends: Z Report on BPA: Infant Formulas.
BPA is everywhere. If we want to protect our kids, we have to tell the manufacturers to take it out! I encourage you to write letters, talk to friends, get active!!

It’s been a week and a half since we started “sleep training.” It sounds so awful, like our son is a dog. But the truth is it’s one of the greatest things to happen to us since our beautiful son came into our lives. Life is becoming manageable and we’re able to [...]

I hate to say this, but Tushies Gel-free Diapers are the worst diaper we have ever used.
They seem awesome on paper. They are gel-free (which they point out is only a bell/whistle), dye- and perfume-free, made from non-chlorine bleached materials, and have a nice soft exterior. Instead of gel, the diapers employ a cotton/wood pulp [...]

Sadly, the review is a positive one… not to say we would write a negative one (stay tuned for a negative review of another brand coming up tomorrow), but maybe a neutral one.

The bloggers over at Safe Mama have published a handy-dandy Paraben and Phthalate Free Bath Care Cheat Sheet. They write:
One of the things that we’ve been frustrated with, here at Safe Mama, was what seemed like a lack of safe baby skin care products. Hence, the first version of the safemama-safe-skincare-cheatsheet. As we were searching [...]

We’ve been talking about Bisphenol-A (BPA) a lot these days, but there are other toxins we’re exposing ourselves to more often, that goes for us adults, too, not just our kids. Two big sources are the food we eat and the products we use on our skin.
I remember being a kid and hearing about [...]

I was ordering replacement cartridges the other night for our mega-water filter at 4 AM, post feeding, and found my way onto the site’s page of water filters for the shower. I said to myself: “The shower?!” Yes, the shower. During the course of the average shower, our skin absorbs approximately 8 cups of chlorinated [...]
