organic waterproof crib pad

by grandma from on 2010-08-29
I ordered this crib pad for my grandson's crib. I have purchased two others, which didnot hold up to washing. This pad is much nicer than the other ones. it was pricier than the others but I guess you get what you pay for.


Very Soft, Super Nice Crib Pad!

by Startop from on 2010-08-18
I bought this crib pad based on the reviews for my six-month-old son when he was big enough to put in his crib (He was a preemie). I was not disappointed! It is of very nice quality and is super soft. It has a nice, thick padding for babies (without being too thick that it's unsafe), and has nicely protected the crib mattress. It has held up through a bunch of washings now without showing any signs of wear and tear. I have used other cheaper crib mattress pads, but this is by far the best! I would highly recommend this mattress pad above the rest!


Love this...

by Sta from on 2010-08-05
I haven't used it yet (baby due 10/10) but I've already washed it and it's just so lovely - the construction is excellent and it's very soft!


SO Soft

by MC from on 2010-07-30
This cover is well worth the investment. It is beyond soft and washes well. I highly recomend it.


great!

by jamieleet81 from on 2010-07-29
this fit very well, even after washing and drying. was even softer than i expected. hvae only washed and dried once, since the baby isn't here yet, but i am so far very pleased.

Not so good!

by PariNeeta from Atlanta, GA United States on 2010-07-13
I bought this blanket for my second baby along with some of the others. All other cotton blankets are more softer than this one. Also it shrank around 10 cm on first washing. I would not recommend buying this.


Very soft, thin, stretchy, made in China

by kaylee18 from on 2010-05-26
We like the size of this blanket because we can tuck it under the edges of the co-sleeper mattress when we use it over our baby (we try to avoid blankets, using sleep sacks instead, but for daytime naps when he's already asleep, it's good to have a blanket we can put on just up to his chest and secure under the mattress edges). Several of his other blankets weren't quite wide enough. The bear in the corner shrunk a little when it was washed (even though it was washed according to label directions), so now it's wrinkled instead of flat. It is very thin, stretchy, and very soft. Also made in China, in case that matters to you.


Soft blanket, great for swaddling, and a keepsake for baby

by A&J from Spokane, WA USA on 2010-05-11
This blanket is one of my favorite for swaddling my newborn, now 3 weeks old and over 10 lbs. It's super stretchy (more so than a thermal blanket) and helps me make a nice, tight swaddle, even when I do a "sloppy" swaddle job in the dark at 3 a.m. The teddy bear decal is soft and makes this blanket, what I hope to be, a keepsake for my son as he grows.


Misunderstood Company Name

by Ann Marie Matson from Texas on 2010-03-16
This blanket was supposed to be a gift for a friend who is very conscientious about where her baby's clothing is made. I believed that "American Baby Company" equated to "American-made". It was my mistake and I will have to return this product.


Lovely Receiving Blanket

by A. Goodman from Boone, NC on 2010-02-22
The American Baby Company Organic Embrodiered Receiving Blanket in Mocha is my favorite and most used blanket that we carry with us. I love that is simple and soft and matches our Eddie Bauer car seat. It is great to stuff in the diaper bag and go or just throw over the side of the travel crib to use for naps. It is very versatile and handy for new moms.

Great Product, High Price

by 1stTimeMominChi from on 2010-08-16
Absolutely love the way this smells and so do my daughters. Unlike some reviewers, we have not had an issue w/eye sensitivity. Unfortunately, it's a little "watery" as are most organic washes, however, it still works great. The only issue is finding a good price on it.


Extremely Safe for Baby-but watch the eyes

by M. Landis from PA-USA on 2010-07-26
According to the Environmental Working Group's ([...]) work on toxins in consumer products, Earth Mama Angel Baby Organic Shampoo rates a 0 out of 10. Lower numbers represent a lower health risk. Be aware that because it is NOT tear-free (it contains no anesthetizing ingredients) it will sting the eyes. The foaming dispenser makes it easy to use just the right amount which reduces the waste I have experienced with pour-out or squirt-out shampoo dispensers. My little ones also love the foam and enjoy "helping" me wash them. Definitely worth the expense and I will be purchasing the 34 oz refill soon. Earth Mama Angel Baby Organic Angel Baby Shampoo & Body Wash, Refill Size, 34-Ounce Bottle


Great

by Reviewer555 from on 2010-06-26
Smells good and is great for the baby's skin. Buy the Earth Mama Angel Baby Organic Angel Baby Shampoo & Body Wash, Refill Size, 34-Ounce Bottle. Do not purchase the refill bottle without this 5.3 oz bottle. The refill bottle doesn't have the foam pump.


Not just for babies!

by J. Hunt from Oregon on 2010-06-15
My "baby" is now 29, so I wasn't looking for a baby shampoo, I just wanted to find one for myself that didn't have too many chemicals. This one has NONE - it's the only one I could find like that. I love the aroma, and the frothy foam, but most of all, I'm amazed at what it's done for my hair. It had been getting limp and unmanageable, but now it has tons of body and bounce! Very highly recommended!


Does what it's supposed to do

by megan from seattle, wa on 2010-02-18
I decided to go buy a natural baby shampoo after reading about all the chemicals in Johnson and Johnson baby products. I just used this on my infant daughter, and it works great. Maybe not as moisturizing as the J&J but it gets her hair clean and doesn't leave a film. Plus it smells good. Another review says that the manufacturer claims it is a "no tears" formula, but mine says right on the bottle that it's not and to keep it away from baby's eyes, so I don't know what they are talking about...I would rather take a little care to avoid her eyes than to be careless and get an anesthetizing chemical in them.

Adorable and Organic!

by D. Adams from Tampa, Fl on 2010-06-25
I love the peace of mind this toy provides since it is organic- safe for my son and our planet. My 4-month-old son instantly was attracted to the new frog toy and reached out and grabbed it. He really enjoys the touch and teeth tag and I cannot not even begin to explain the comfort it provides me just knowing that this toy is safe with no harmful chemicals. The only change I would make is to have the embroidery on the frog more pronounced to provide more contrast as my son really enjoys the high contrast on one of his other cloth toys.


I like it more than the baby did

by bookworm from MD United States on 2010-02-17
I got this toy for my son because he likes rattles and I liked that it was eco-friendly. Unfortunately for whatever reason he never really took to it. Maybe it's because the rattle is on the quiet side, maybe it's because the face doesn't have a lot of contrast, or maybe it's because it's a little flat rather than more three dimensional. It was expensive though so hopefully my next baby is more interested in it.


eco friendly, soft and washable

by patchouli from VA United States on 2010-02-03
Things that a baby toy should be: safe, eco-fiendly, washable, hypo-allergenic and this is organic cotton too. It's a soft rattle, not noisy and annoying (very important for parents!) Very pleased with this purchase. Hope my baby is too!

Classy

by C. Marshall from on 2010-06-18
We got this a few days ago, both tried it on and love it. It's classy and a beautiful color and material that will go well with anything. It's also totally neutral and looks good on both of us. Happy that it's organic, super easy to put together and take off. We stuffed a soccer ball in there pretending like it was the baby who's due next month. Very happy with this purchase so far. I'll make sure to update if we don't like it once we try it with the baby but it seems high quality and sturdy.


good design

by Cem Kiper from on 2010-02-01
I purchased this item 3 months ago and I am extremely satisfied with the design and usefulness...I also like very much the "color" that is slightly darker than how it looks on photos.small warning: it may feel very light at the beginning, but gets heavier, if you go out for more than 1 hour, even if your baby is just 1 month old...small breaks help indeed and nothing can be more practical than babybjorn carrier.


Very Comfortable

by Old Man from Northwest on 2010-01-23
My first concern before buying this was how sturdy the material would be. We took it home (bought it from BabyRUs) tried it out and it turned out pretty good. The strap was easy to adjust, wasn't uncomfortable at all. My daughter smiled while when we put her in it and that was all the approval I needed.


Easy to use, fabric much more suitable for baby's soft skin

by New_Mom_NYC from on 2010-01-08
This baby carrier is so simple and easy to use. I didn't buy this before because I didn't like the material they use on the originals - too harsh for the baby's skin. This new organic version is what I have wanted - the fabric is soft and smooth, and it looks much nicer than the old ones which essentially look like backpacks.

Looks like a plain blanket

by Target Shopaholic from SF, CA on 2010-08-28
This is nothing impressive to look at -- just a small thin lightweight waffle-weave eggshell-colored blanket. Provides a little extra warmth while still being breathable.


Soft blanket, great for swaddling

by A&J from Spokane, WA USA on 2010-05-11
This is one of my two favorite blankets for swaddling my newborn son. Although a bit big for swaddling a 8+ pound baby, and not a square, it is super soft, stretchy, and I like knowing I'm providing an organic, dye-free blanket. Blue is so overrated. Now that my son has grown and is over 10-lbs, the blanket is easier for swaddling.


AWESOME Baby Shower Gift!

by E. Watts from on 2010-05-05
This has been one of my favorite baby shower gifts for the last 3 or so years! Almost everyone I bought this for brought their baby home wrapped in this blanket. It is extremely well made, soft, great for the environment and most of all, great for baby! It's also larger than you would think and doesn't fray. I'll continue buying these until they stop making them!


Perfect for swaddling a newborn

by C. Collins from on 2009-08-01
I bought this blanket and several other receiving blankets in anticipation of our baby. This blanket was perfect and the only one that worked for swaddling. It is large and stretchy enough to swaddle with, but it is also breathable and pretty soft. I just bought three more.


Great blanket!

by Beagle from Mississippi on 2009-05-22
I always include a thermal blanket in baby shower gifts. A thermal blanket like this one was always very handy when our girl was a baby. Many times after giving these as gift the parents have come back to thank me and told me how much they use it. One even has a child that loves to sleep with it as a security blanket. I love the fact that this one is organic/eco friendly.

gentle for baby

by M. Tavel from SP Brazil on 2010-02-01
I thought this was a good product for my baby. It's gentle and almost odorless. The only thing I didn't love was the consistency. It's a little on the thin/runny side. It's a light and gentle moisturizer. I would buy it again though.


Great lotion - no stink

by JudiAU from Los Angeles on 2009-04-28
We really like this natural lotion. I like that it isn't petroleum based and it is very gentle to sensitive skin. We liked the Aveeno unscented as well but wanted a natural product for our toddler. This worked much better than the California Baby unscented product. It had a weird after-scent.


Great Lotion for Sensitive Babies

by NB from California on 2008-02-08
I've been using this product for about 2 1/2 years. My oldest son has sensitive skin and after trying many lotions, I found this one to work very well. As a baby, he had several eczema and allergy breakouts. I'm always on the lookout for a baby product without fragrances, dyes and that don't dry the skin out (some organic products end up drying the skin out even more). I highly recommend this lotion!

I Love My Ergo

by kqs from on 2010-09-03
I went though 3 baby carriers and I love my Ergo best. My daughter is 9 months and we still use and love it. When you have a child nap time can prevent you from leaving the house, but having the Ergo allows my daughter to take naps when I am out doing errand or taking a walk. Another great feature is that it is comfortable. Other carriers hurt my shoulders, but with the Ergo the weight of the baby is distributed evenly throughout my body. Another great feature is the snap on hood. The hood protects the baby from the sun and gives the baby proper head support. Buy it and you will be satisfied.

LOVE IT

by C. Heyne from Chandler, AZ United States on 2010-09-01
Love the ERGO! Totally worth $120!So I used a ring sling when my daughter was little, but pretty much stopped using it when she started to get heavy. Decided to invest in a carrier that would evenly distribute her weight. She is currently ~23 pounds and I barely notice her in the Ergo! Both my husband and I use it (and he actually likes it and finds it easy to use, which is saying a lot). Although we can't compare the "performance" model to the other Ergos, we love it. We live in Phoenix and it has been hot. And although I get a bit sweaty using the Ergo, it really isn't that bad. I am convinced that in "normal" weather I wouldn't sweat at all due to all the mesh areas. It is easy/quick to adjust from me to my husband and quick to put on. Our daughter loves it. The sleeping cover is very useful to also keep the sun off her head/eyes and the pocket, although small, is big enough for my phone.


Got this pack for my third child and I'm kicking myself for not getting it for my first! Love Love Love it!!!!!!

by Ila A. Halstead from California on 2010-09-01
I love love love this carrier it's the best one I have ever used. I have tried the cheap version of the bjorn, I have tried an expensive sling make that two. I have tried a wrap. First my babies never liked any of them. Second they would kill my shoulders or back not long after putting them on. Not with the Ergo. After reading the directions and having my husband there to assist me with the first trial run, I put my tired 5 week old in and went for a walk. He liked it and so did my shoulders/back. I can easily put him in the carrier by myself, I do have the newborn insert and find it easy to use. Today he is almost eight weeks old and I put him in it so I could vacumm and he fell asleep while I vacummed in less then ten minutes. I was able to get him out so easy he never woke up. This carrier is so great I can't believe I waited until my third child to finally make this purchse.


Comfortable for me & my baby!

by Queenie's Mommy from Hummelstown, PA on 2010-08-31
I recently ordered this to hold my almost 6 month old son. He is already 20 lbs. & my Baby Bjorn is definitely not working anymore. My clavicles feel like they are about to snap in half when I carry him in it. I was worried that he might not like the Ergo b/c he is used to facing out in the Bjorn. Doesn't seem to be a problem.I have read in a few of the reviews on Amazon that people think this carrier is just too tricky to use. I don't agree at all. It does look a little intimidating right out of the box. Lots of straps & hooks going on... But - once you read the manual that comes with it you should be fine. I admit that I did watch an instructional video on youtube to make sure I was using it correctly on my hip. Very helpful.My son seems to enjoy being in this carrier. Even though he faces me (while carried in front) he seems to enjoy it. I have to say that I like the option of wearing him on my hip. I have both my hands free, he can still see my face & he's not directly in front of me to obstruct my view in any way. I haven't tried the backpack way of carrying him yet. I will probably need my husband to help me with that before I feel comfortable doing it alone. But wearing my son in front or on my hip I have been able to easily do by myself.One more point - I think purchasing the sucking pads is a good idea. My son loves to chew on mostly everything at this time. They washed up nicely & are a lot easier to clean than the entire carrier. They are soft & abosorbent.I recommend this carrier to anyone who feels like their Baby Bjorn is just too uncomfortable to wear anymore. Or better yet - skip the Baby Bjorn altogether & just buy this one first!


love it

by Milbert C. Mariano from on 2010-08-23
It usually takes two to put our baby in, but once he's in, then he and we love it.

The organic knit cradle sheet is made of super soft and breathable knitted organic cotton interlock material for baby's comfort. Once upon a time I was organically grown in a land far far away. I am grown free of pesticides whereas conventional cotton accounts for 275 million pounds of pesticides annually. I am then cultivated and hand-picked of insects then spun into thread and made into organic bedding which is incredibly fine soft and strong. I am proud to be made of organic cotton. I stand for clean air water and soil. I am ideal for baby's sensitive skin and am the most natural fabric for your baby. Baby will thank you and so will Mother Nature.

Best sheet I've found

by M. ONeal from on 2010-03-18
I love this sheet! It's the softest crib sheet I've found in this price range. I washed it on delicate and dried it on low heat because I was afraid of shrinkage, but it didn't shrink at all. As stretchy as it is, I think it could shrink just a little and still fit perfectly. I'll be buying more of these.


Nice sheet

by J. Verwers from JANESVILLE, WI, US on 2010-02-18
Sheet is soft like a tee shirt. It's very stretchy and it doesn't appear to have shrank after a normal washing.


Soft, soft, soft!

I love this crib sheet -- it's very soft and the price is reasonable. I haven't had a problem with shrinkage. Given that the fabric stretches quite a bit it fits our mattress just fine after several washes in warm.


Not a good fit; don't wear well

by Lea M. Remigio from Orlando, FL on 2009-08-25
I bought two of these for our son's crib before he was born, along with the matching bumper. The bumper is fine, but the sheets have never fit our standard-sized crib mattress. It's weird - the corners of the sheet end up closer to the middle of the mattress than to the corners.Also, after just a few washes, they began to pill-up. They were soft and smooth out of the packaging, but have not worn well.I'm shopping for new sheets now because they're worn out already and the baby is just 7 months old.


Pleased

by B. Fiori from on 2009-07-05
The crib sheets are soft, fit well, and the price is excellent. In fact, when we ordered the sheets I was concerned about the quality because the price was so "low." Well, to my surprise and delight, the sheets (purchased two) are softer than the other organic, twice-the-cost crib sheet that I had previously purchased. So, we are very pleased.

Description

For over two decades i play., Inc. has been researching children's health issues to make safer feeding accessories that come in contact with babies' mouths and foods. Due to recent safety issues in children's toys we saw a need for toys free from potentially harmful toxins. So in 2008 we launched a new line of PVC, phthalate, BPA and nitrosamine free toys made from eco-friendly materials. Inside Baby: Pregnancy and early childhood are critical times in babies lives because they are growing and developing so rapidly. During this time they are vulnerable to elements in their environment, and parents should protect them as much as possible from exposure to potentially harmful substances. The first priority for growing babies is to make sure everything babies put inside their mouth is healthy, safe and promotes the development of strong immune system. PVC free and Phthalate free: PolyVinyl Chloride (PVC) is a hard plastic that requires harsh chemical softeners, such as phthalates, to make it appropriate for use in soft plastic baby toys such as squirty toys. In 2003 we discovered that phthalates were shown to disrupt reproductive functions and cause other developmental problems, so we launched a line of toys free from PVC and phthalates. BPA free: Bisphenol-A (BPA) is used in hard, clear plastics sometimes used in baby toys to prevent breakage. In 2006 we learned that BPA also disrupts reproductive functions and causes other developmental problems, so we added a line of BPA free toys to our line. Nitrosamine free: Nitrosamines are found in latex products such as some infant teethers. They have been shown to cause cancer in many animals, so all our teethers and soothers are nitrosamine free.

  • New BPA, PVC and phthalate free
  • Different sizes and colors keep your baby playing in and out of the bath

great cups- but, not for stacking

by morganbaby from NJ on 2010-08-25
i love these cups. colors are nice, drainage holes are a must for bath, and they make good sounds when banged against each other.however they are difficult for children to stack. i can stack them with patience, but forget expecting a child to do. overall, minus the anti-stacking feature they are worth the purchase. children will find many things to do with them regardless.


like it's eco-friendly

by SlowcarFast from Los Angeles, CA on 2010-08-20
But I wish the colors are less "pink and peach"!! - I have a baby boy and it's kind of silly when we have playdates, all the girls want to grab his stacking cup set. They need to make the colors more "boy friendly".


Great Toy for Toddler

by J. Cozine from The Dirty Jerz on 2010-08-19
These cups are on the smallish side and I wish they were a little more brightly colored. That being said, my eight month old adores them. He will play with them non-stop in the bath, on the floor and in his crib. Since he is the end consumer, I will put aside my minor quibbles and rate them as he would. Five stars all the way!


great

by L. Mastrigt from Gainesville, VA on 2010-08-18
What is there to say? they are plastic cups! we use them for everything, bath, beach and playtime, my son loves them!


Stacking & Nesting Cups

by Gadget Girl from Alexandria, VA on 2010-08-16
My 9-month old adores these cups, she plays with them all the time. They nest and stack. I do not have problems stacking them (except when she's right there to knock them over). She loves putting these in her mouth and is constantly chewing the rims of these. They are BPA-free which is nice compared with other stacking cups. Highly recommend Green Sprouts. Great durability and great toy. As I'm learning and these cups taught me, sometimes the simplest toys are the best.
