I feel like the products that are most accessible are all the products that are “bad” or “toxic”. What are suppose to do if you can’t afford $30 pajamas? Or a play gym that is $140? I thrift most of my babies clothes because things are so expensive. Even Walmart is expensive, its crazy. All the healthy and organic products are often not accessible and too expensive for the average person.

Yes, Sometimes it’s not realistic to be able to afford everything. I think you can make little changes here and there slowly and you will see that some stuff is actually affordable. Like I have bought good baby soaps in the past and then I saw that the prices went up so you can make your own stuff as well. But you asked what you can do. 1. do a little bit at a time and don’t overwhelm yourself. 2. detox.

why are you all taking your anger about toxic chemicals and expensive quality options on Bridget?! Direct your anger at the people who profit from making cheap toxic things that hurt our children, and at the government for not outlawing toxic killer chemicals and enforcing regulations. Bridget is simply giving you information, do with it what you want. Yes it is awful the safe clothes for baby are $30 each, Bridget individually can't do anything about it. Collectively we as moms can.

The reality is that Bridget was very kind, but I’ve made an observation about other people in this country. People here are obsessed with cost and convenience. They can’t even be bothered to do their own research, and when someone else does it for them, they just complain and attack, because deep down, they understand their decisions are negatively affecting their children. So many of these so called “normal” people complain it’s expensive for the average person, but my husband and I are just average people, and we’ve not purchased any of these products for our child. We did our due diligence the moment we found out we were pregnant. We don’t buy exactly the same products as Bridget. For us, we also wanted as many products not to be made in China, bc a lot of the problem lies in this. Toys unfortunately are incredibly limited. I tried to find quality items, but could not. So we did Lovevery. But every other item she listed, we went out and searched for our own and found things within our budget. We did research and math. But we are also educated, which I know in this country isn’t valued at all, but it’s with that education that we were able to calculate and decide what non toxic products to go with. It’s truly not difficult at all.

You can find cheaper alternatives if these are too expensive but also I've noticed that being a huge excuse for most people who just don't care to change. My partner and I are below average income and we managed to buy everything we needed while keeping it eco friendly and most importantly friendly for our babies. You don't NEED to be super wealthy to swap your toxic products. I've found plenty of alternatives that were CHEAPER than the bad stuff or at least cheaper in the long run. You can even learn to make stuff yourself. There's so many different ways to replace or remove products that we KNOW aren't good for anyone.

Frugal crunchy mama tip: Evenflo glass bottles are an amazing deal!! Seriously cheap and if they work for your baby, you’ll be very lucky! They worked great for us until 5 mo and then we had to switch to Avent glass, which I bought used.

@chelseag3365 Жыл бұрын

The plastic one goes for the whole family's health too. We always make sure we never microwave plastic, and use glass bottles/containers whenever possible! Unfortunately though not all glass containers are made equal and some brands have trace amounts of lead in them so I try to do my best to research the right brands. Luckily I found that out before getting pregnant with my first baby, but wish we had all known about this when we were young. The others you listed are great to know and I will definitely be using that website you mentioned from now on! Thank you!!

This popped up in my feed just now, and what’s funny is that I had done my research before my baby got here. This is amazing info, and I urge all expecting parents to take this information to heart. Do your research! My son is 2 months old now, and Bridget, we found all the same information, and when we shared it with our friends and family, they thought we were nuts for saying we didn’t want to use conventional products. We went ahead and spent a little more on quality products, and people thought we were insane for it. I’m glad you’re talking about this tho. Cheaper isn’t better, and I just wish more people would recognize that and plan accordingly when they do decide to have children.

Great video and topic! So many people forget about the baby clothes and play mats when evaluating toxins! When shopping for materials I look for OEKO-TEX (low toxicity) certified or GOTS (organic) certified. And make sure the fillings are also safe, not just the outer cover (which is common for many baby play mats, mattresses, blankets, loungers etc.) Many have highly processed synthetic fibres as filling but label it as 'organic' because it has an organic cotton cover (which is still better than nothing, but can be misleading). I also look for wool when possible, as it is not processed with any harmful chemicals.

This is so frustrating...I just want to make everything at home and never buy from stores again. I can't believe how much junk is allowed in our products and food.

@negunion Жыл бұрын

My FIL used to produce fabric and he told me that buying organic clothes doesn't really matter because there's still chemicals involved in the treatment of the raw material (eg softeners, bleaches, dyes) so it's best to look for raw undyed cotton. Theoretically, it should be cheaper to produce because of the lack of processing but the retail price is often marked up even more

@Lacooquette Жыл бұрын

Yup! It;s probably the same as with organic foods - the fact that something is labeled "organic" doesn't mean it doesn't contain chemicals or pesticides, and many brand and products just get that label after paying for the certification.

Thanks for the products list. I think we should weigh the prices. Dr. Bronner's baby soap can be used for the entire family skincare. Dr. Bronner's baby soap can be used to hand wash baby clothes. Diapers is a personal choice and there are many brands that have reasonable prices. Clothing is a personal choice too, but you should always wash baby clothes before putting on the baby and your own body. Keep in mind lots of products we use whether for baby or family generally have chemicals. Just do what works for you and don't go overboard spending lots of money. Invest in making some DIY products for the home to cut cost.

Exactly! So tired of seeing these fear mongering selling tactics. Too much water, too much oxygen, too much of anything, is toxic and can cause cancer. You can't just talk about toxins without the quantity. Blueberries, for example, contain high number of anthocyanins (cyanidin-, delphinidin-, and malvidin-3-O-glycosides) together with caffeic, p-coumaric, ferulic, chlorogenic, syringic acids, and vanillic acids. Looks bad isn't it? Lol

I've got a bub coming in a month and have spent my pregnancy researching what's safe - yep most things aren't, and the ones that are are expensive. We've spent way more than we thought. I've tried to focus on the things that bub will spend long periods of time in like the pram, car seat, bassinet and cot. Bumbleride prams are about the same price as prams like Uppababy but they are OEX-TEX certified. We got our organic wool cot mattress for a similar amount as a more premium conventional mattress, same with our bassinet set up (we actually have a Moses basket with wool mattress). Nuna car seats are apparently OEX-TEX too - they used to be one of the worst but changed in 2019. They are a bit more expensive because they never come on sale!! I'm in Australia so it was harder to source this stuff than it appeared to be in the US. I'm also quite regional so postage made the cost of these big items worse.

I have been really good on almost all of these, but OH MY GOSH the toys…. I don’t know where I’d start with trying to get away from the plastic toys and family just bombard him with new things all the time lol he has more toys than I or he know what to do with but I will try to get rid of the plastic stuff slowly as soon as I can and try to be more helpful in offering suggestions for family asking about what to get out soon to be daughter 🥰 Great advice and I did the same thing with clothes for the early months for my son and went organic and mostly gender neutral so that I could reuse them and a LOT of hand me downs. I don’t think I bough more than shoes for my son because of the hand me downs. And my daughter will have the same! As for another option to glass for bottles, I used and loved the comotomo bottles and they are made of safe silicone and my son also loved them. They are a little pricey but I’m using them again for my daughter because they last, I just have to get some new nipples because my son chewed through most of them haha But cloth diapers are good, I used them as much as possible and only did disposable for outings and bed time. I used either honest brand or seventh generation. The seventh generation diapers are so soft and durable and I loved them the best. I used Burt’s Bees shampoo and wash, and I know there are some better products, but it was the best compromise product I think I could find as to price and value since some of the really pure things either don’t work and/or are insanely expensive. Burt’s bees is an affordable middle ground I was comfortable with. Except for diaper rash cream: Burt’s bees diaper rash cream didn’t work. I used babyganics diaper rash cream and it worked great.

I am so thankful that she has put this video together for those of us that want to make the best changes for our babies…unfortunately, our parents sometimes are not the easiest to get on board with these changes either because “we did it and we turned out fine.” I would love to implement these but may be hard with that mind set and my husband sometimes still has the old mindset too. It just feels so overwhelming sometimes when you feel you are the only one trying to make these changes and don’t live close to family. Hopefully I can start to make these changes slowly. It’s too bad things are more easily accessible and affordable.

Yes, tell me about it. My husband’s family completely disrespected us. We asked for cloth diapers on our registry, and they all went and got us diapers. Not even honest or something biodegradable. They bought Huggies, pampers, etc. they could’ve at least respected our choices.

I always use cornstarch instead of diaper cream. It always works so quickly. Is it safe? 😬

Johnson & Johnson owns many of the other brands such as Aveeno. So Aveeno baby and even the adult stuff we stopped using.

So you go online and you shop there. There are a lot of very good quality soaps out there. You can also make your own.

People keep complaining about not being a ke to afford these things, but there are alternatives to alternatives. In the end, sometimes you will have to make sacrifices for the better of your child. My husband and I don't buy any subscriptions and keep leisure to a minimum and that's all for the better for our daughter. It sucks to be poor, but it sucks more to know that I'm putting harmful things on, in, or around my baby. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Exactly. It’s why you see so many sick children now. It’s not normal that kids have developmental problems and learning disabilities en masse. If people would only vote with their dollars, especially when it comes to those most vulnerable, this wouldn’t be a problem!

Hello it’s summer time soon!!! I’m wondering if there is a good sunscreen for babes? My baby girl is 6 months! Also maybe a summertime video?? How to dress them, sun protection, hydration, and all the summer things. It gets very humid in Minnesota and I’m a first time momma! I’ll take all the tips i can get!

What about hand me down clothes? So many of the baby clothes we have are used from other people or were even my brothers’ clothes back in the 90’s! Surely those don’t pose harm.

She gave a recommendation. It doesn’t mean you have to follow that exact recommendation. Think outside the box.

Does anyone have any safe alternative to the lovevery brand of toys? I understand they'd be an investment but the pricing is not very accessible to a lot of families right now.

Melissa and Doug make a lot of Woden toys that are more affordable, but I haven’t checked toxicity info on them. Worth looking into!

I make a lot of copycat toys from recycled materials or way cheaper alternatives you can find in craft stores or even biz box stores. Pinterest is your best friend here :)

What you spend on a Hape toy (an alternative) or Melissa and Doug (another alternative) you can get a whole play set. Babylist has this deal for lovevery toys where you’re basically spending $40/mo for 6 mos. Most toys out in the market, just one single toy, is $30. Lovevery is NOT expensive!

This is so useful information but to follow all these advises you need lots of money. Unfortunately all the nontoxic products are made for the one that can afford 😕

what about little carters organic? or burts bees? target carries a lot of organic brands too like goumi kids. I’m wondering if it’s enough for clothes to be GOTS certified organic, or if there are other parameters to check when it comes to dyes. it’s pretty hard to find that info. :/
