The Benefits of Organic Baby Bedding
Jan 14th, 2010 by Christine
Have you every stopped and wondered what is in bedding including our children’s bedding? You might be surprised to know that it isn’t just cotton, which is the material used for most bedding today including baby’s bedding, but also other chemicals are mixed in to produce the product.
Some of these chemicals include phosphorus, which is used in the baby’s mattress cover, as well as formaldehyde which is used in the cotton sheets, arsenic and antimony which are used as preservatives and fire retardants. All these chemicals are very harmful for your child especially babies whose little brains and bodies are still developing and these chemicals could get in the way of these necessary changes in their bodies.
The biggest problem in today’s conventional baby bedding is the fact that the cotton that it is made of is not organic cotton. This cotton is grown and treated with harmful chemicals and pesticides such as BT and formaldehyde.
These chemicals are absorbed through the baby’s skin very easily and can lead to rashes, brain injuries and even cause SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome). This is something that every parent should be concerned of in a major way.
There is an alternative to conventional baby bedding and that is organic baby bedding. One of the many ways to have a true healthy organic baby is to start off your baby’s first few moments into this world laying him or her in quality organic baby bedding.
Being that baby’s sleep 70% of the time in their first year this is something that every parent should definitely consider for the health future of their children.
Organic baby bedding is safe for babies because it is made with organic cotton grown by using insects as pesticides just like nature intended it to be and it is not sprayed with these dangerous chemicals that are not only harmful to your child but are also harmful to the environment. There are also other options for organic baby bedding such as bedding made of bamboo fibers and wool.
Although baby bedding made of bamboo fibers is a better choice than conventional baby bedding, bedding made of wool is even better. This is because bamboo bedding still has to be mixed with rayon which is not a natural fiber as opposed to baby wool bedding which doesn’t have to be and has natural fire retardant, antimicrobial, and anti-fungal properties.
Most organic baby bedding is sold at shops where organic products are sold. One online shop that specializes in organic bedding of all sorts including organic baby bedding is kushtush.com. So if you are planning to have a baby or have one already, consider making your baby’s bedroom and crib eco-friendly as well by using organic baby bedding.

During my pregnancy 7 years ago my decisions were limited and just the other day I was browsing online for a crib set because my sister is expecting and was completely amazed at the huge selection of crib bedding that’s available in 2010. I have to admit… looking at all the different nursery pictures made me want another little one : )
One thing I did notice is that I didn’t see as much of the traditional pinks and blues that I remember seeing when my husband and I were shopping for our little one.

How is it that just anybody can write a blog and get as popular as this? Its not like you’ve said anything incredibly impressive –more like youve painted a pretty picture over an issue that you know nothing about! I dont want to sound mean, here. But do you really think that you can get away with adding some pretty pictures and not really say anything?
Kudos from one brainiac to another.

lol lots of of the responses readers put up make me giggle, on occasion i ponder whether they in reality read the article and reports before leaving your 2 cents or if perhaps they simply just skim the subject of the post and jot down the initial thought that drifts into their heads. in any case, it is really pleasant to browse intelligent commentary once in a while as opposed to the very same, traditional blog vomit that i generally , notice on the net
