We are expecting a child in December 2009 (we don’t know gender yet) and have started a registry at Babies-R-Us, but cannot find many products: wool/alpaca blankets, cotton plush blankets, modern looking cotton nursery bedding, organic toys, foam mattress, light-weight crib in cherry color (there is one in maple color at Babies-R-Us though) …
Does it mean that we should open a registry at another store instead? What other national store chain would be good for a variety of organic/quality baby products?

I have been feeding my daughter more organic and natural foods. She has been breaking out alot latley and I don’t know if that is the reason. I took her to the doctor and I have to put her on Claritin for 7 days to see if it makes it any better. I thought the whole point of eating organic was to reduce food alergies?Does anyone know?

I’ve never believed in buying organic & I don’t have the money-
Also- I’m pregnant. But I read somewhere that non-organic fruit- especially strawberries should not be eaten by pregnant women. I realize it’s probably better to eat organic- but has there been any actual harm from eating non-organic strawberries? I ask because I have craved them so much that I often went through a pack a day. COuld I have imposed harm on my baby?

Any ideas?

I was thinking– buying some organic unsweetened green tea and getting some organic lemon juice to add flavor. The issue is, I feel that it won’t be all too flavorful without sugar. Any ideas for this?

I would prefer the energy booster to be a drink, but if you have any other tips that would be great :)

Can anyone tell me how long does Similac Organic Ready to Feed – 32 oz bottle formula keep after being opened?

I have not been sold on eating organic foods until now. There was a recent study published showing a link between children with ADHD and produce grown using pesticides. I know some of you are choosing organically grown food. Do any of you have children that were once diagnosed with ADD/ADHD before changing to organic foods and noticed an improvement in their attention, behavior and/or school performance? How long did it take before you saw an improvement?

I would appreciate serious answers, please! Thank you!

I live is southwest washington state.I was going to buy my suster inlaw some organic baby formula, and all the walmarts near us no long stock the parents choice organic formula. Does anyone no why?
in view of the answer i just recieved (thank you), does anyone know of safe organic formula brands
?

Organic cleaning solutions don’t have chemicals, but I would think it’s still not safe to consume.

Also, do you think vomiting would have to be induced?

My brother thinks my doing it is misguided and fussy… I jut tr to grow my own veg, and use local organic veggie boxes.

I’m trying to change my diet around to where I am eating less processed foods and normally I would put splenda in my oatmeal, but today I decided to put organic raisins. Is this a good breakfast? I also have a cup of green tea each morning.
