Some Insight Concerning Organic Cotton Baby Clothing
Feb 2nd, 2010 by Christine
Your baby’s skin is sensitive and will react to whatever you place next to it. When choosing clothes for your newborn or toddler it’s important to know that the fabric won’t irritate your baby’s precious skin.
Treated cotton is grown using pesticides that weaken the plant and cause cotton fields to become barren. The cotton is then dyed with toxic dyes and is often finished with formaldehyde. The 90 million acres of cotton fields account for a quarter of the world’s pesticide use. Adversely, organic cotton is grown in a natural living soil field.
Living soil has been free of toxic chemicals for at least three years and is then fortified with compost and other organic matter. The use of organic matter in the growth process makes a stronger plant that will naturally fend off weeds, pests and other diseases that a treated plant cannot fend off.
The 100% organic baby clothing is also machine washable. Egyptian cotton requires no special care and is entirely wash and wear. While an organic piece may cost more than a synthetic piece, its durability will prove that you get what you pay for.
There are several high end brands that make organic cotton baby clothing. Nordstrom offers a line of organic cotton appliqué body suits for both boy and girl infants. Each of the animal themed body suits is available for $18 both in stores and online. This item has a tendency to run smaller than expected, so you should order a size larger than needed.
The Gap has a collection of organic short sleeved body suits adorned with the signs of the zodiac. The one piece outfit can be found both in stores and online starting at $12.50. Also from the Gap are several organic bibs in colorful prints. Since organic cotton is machine washable your infant can make as much of a mess as they’d like without a second thought.
Shoppers that would prefer to shop from the comfort of their home will find more than enough online merchants and wholesalers that specialize in adorable organic baby clothing. OrganicallyBaby.com features the Nile collection of organic baby fashions. These custom pieces will cost more, ranging in cost from $25 to $50 for a sleep suit. VashonOrganics.com has cute and humorous organic cotton body suits for under $30.
Both in stores and online, organic cotton baby clothing is an eco-friendly way to keep your baby comfortable and fashionable.
