Totally right on about the wipes! I went through that with my daughter when she was a month or two old. Now we just use paper towels with warm water and a small amount of sensitive baby soap.

@taragirlable It's so sad that there are such harsh chemicals in baby wipes... things that touch our children's genetials 5 - 10 times a day... so sad !

I LOVE your enthusiasm!!! I would like to let all of you know that there are alternatives out there on several products that do NOT contain toxins and chemicals that harm our bodies and are safe for our children! I would love to share a fabulous company with you. Send me an email if interested in learning more. shaleewhite@gmail.com

@MacHead31 I am talking about chemicals that are in products that our children use on a consistant basis... chemicals that are man made and not found in nature.

Everything in this universe is a chemical. What are you taking about?
