Natural Mat Coco Mat Review

Natural Mat Coco Mat
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This mattress is GREAT!I had originally bought a regular crib mattress from BabiesRus.It seemed really good for the price - firm, but not too uncomfortable for baby.Then, I started researching cribs and stumbled upon information about cribs and especially crib mattresses containing chemicals that leach formaldehyde.The mattresses are worse, though, since it is the law that they be flame retardant.Many chemicals are put into these mattresses, including roach killer, arsenic and antimony, and solid petroleum.Babies spend SO much of their time in them, in VERY close proximity.There is even research to suggest that a leading cause of SIDS is these chemicals that the babies ingest.

So, while on the hunt for a healthier mattress, I saw many so called "organic" products.Naturepedic in particilar markets an "organic" mattress.But as with food and dairy industries, organic does not always mean so.Per the USDA, a product only has to contain 70% organic ingredients to use the phrase "organic" on its packaging.So, the mattress might be made with organic cotton, but there are still other components.And unless you have a doctor's prescription for no flame retartants, or have a mattress made with wool, a natural flame retardant (which this mattress has), you're still going to get the bad chemicals.So, for the same price as a Naturepedic with the bad chemicals, I got this mattress (found it on sale through another website, even though I'd have gladly paid Amazon's price!).It is made entirely of the following:A core of organic coir (coconut fibers), organic wool, and 2 unbleached cotton covers.The wool acts as a water barrier itself, so you don't have to use horrible vinyl mattress pads.(Vinyl is one of the most toxic plastics known).The wool is also anti dust mite.The mattress provides ventilation and maintains temperatures to stay warm or cool, depending on the needs.

The mattress fits perfectly in my Pali Paula crib (even better than the first mattress I purchased, since that one was a little short on the sides).It is firm, yet springy.This will be GREAT for use as a toddler mattress, since it will still be comfortable for a younger child.All in all, I believe I found the BEST crib mattress out there.This, coming from an "organic OCD" mother, as my husband calls me, is a very high praise.[...].

Not only is this blanket a great swaddler, super soft, and antibacterial, but bamboo fabric helps to protect babies from the suns harmful rays.We used ours on a trip to Hawaii with our two week old and it worked beautifully.The jersey material is perfect for warmer temperatures and the velour blanket is especially warm and cozy when it's colder.As others have said, it comes beautifully packaged and makes a great gift.Also check out the hats and changing table covers.

Gerber Brand Organic Crib Sheet Review

I bought 2 of the sage sheets, because I love the orange dotted Gerber organic sheets and I assumed these would be the same high quality.I was wrong!When I took them out of the package, the fabric felt a lot thinner than the dotted ones.I washed them in cold water & dried them on medium just as do my others, and they just barely fit my crib mattress.I will probably donate these because I'm not going to fight to stretch these onto the mattress every time I change the sheet.

Summer Infant Naturally Yours Crib Sheet Review

Summer Infant Naturally Yours  Crib Sheet
Average Reviews:

These are like a very thick percale type fabric, not a knit, not stretchy. They are not silky like a high quality eqyptian sheet, but still very nice, good feel to them. We own a very big Naturepedic 255 mattress, with a mattress pad on top, also Naturepedic, which barely fit in our crib, and this sheet fit. I own it in ginger and I have to say it is a pretty strong color. I like it, but definitely be aware you are buying a strong color.

Naturepedic Waterproof Fitted Crib Pad, 28x52 Review

Naturepedic Waterproof Fitted Crib Pad, 28x52
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Naturepedic is known for having high-quality, chemical-free, environmentally friendly products, and this mattress pad does not disappoint.My son has wet and spit-up on his bed repeatedly, and the mattress (also a Naturepedic) has always been fully protected.It washes very well.It fits tightly, does not smell (like vinyl pads do), and is worth the extra money.I would recommend buying two, however, as these pads take a long time to dry (even in the dryer), which speaks well to their water-proofing, but it is more convenient to be able to put another pad on the bed immediately than to have to wait for this one to dry.LOVE it, would recommend it to everyone.

American Baby Company Organic Cotton Interlock Crib Sheet - Natural Review

American Baby Company Organic Cotton Interlock Crib Sheet - Natural
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
For several months now I have been using the conventional cotton interlock sheet by ABC in my daughter's crib and have been very pleased. I upgraded to this organic sheet last week. They are SUPER soft and stretchy and actually run a little large right out of the package. The standard size mattress we have measures 28 x 52 x 5. After washing them according to the manufacturer's care instructions before use, I found that they REALLY shrank up! I washed them in cold and dried them on the coolest setting available on my dryer (permanent press cycle.) The length from one end of the crib to the other was most affected. I will definitely use them, but it's going to be a bit of a wrestling match each time I change her sheets! Go ahead and buy these sheets but be VERY careful how you care for them.
