Toxicants, Kids and Parenting
As a parent when it comes to going green, being eco-friendly and being natural and non-toxic, it is confusing. Most parents have a ton of questions. Some common questions are:
Where do I start?
What if I don’t have these products or eco-friendly options locally?
What is the most important thing to focus on when it comes to the safety of my children?
Who do I trust, the marketing is confusing?
We agree. But we have an option for you. Two parents that went through the same thing when trying to find healthier, safer products for their children opened an online store called Better Baby Bums. Jen and Corina get what your saying and feeling and wthey ant to connect with moms online to answer questions and educate parents about eco-friendly, non-toxic options and alternatives. They know that education is the start.

The proper care of nipples – let’s chat at #ecowed Twitter Party
Who thinks about their nipples, unless you experience a cold breeze in a thin t-shirt or you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Otherwise, we mostly ignore the nipples, although we may think about our breasts. So let’s talk nipples!
Have you ever wondered what those white bumps are on your nipples? Well, they are the visible parts of all the oil glands that surround your nipples. They basically keep your nipple skin from getting too dry. If you have ever squeezed one (confess), then you may have freaked out by the discharge – sort of like a zit. Well, that discharge is excess oil that you’ve forced out.
Got any other questions – like how to handle sore nipples while breastfeeding? Come chat with us for #ecowed. This week’s #ecowed Twitter party will be sponsored by Earth Mama Angel Baby and we’ll be talking all things nipple related. We’ll be focusing on nipple care pre, during and post breastfeeding. For example, we’ll chat about nine things your nipples wish you knew about them! Confess – have you used cabbage leaves to help with engorged breasts? I did – although I chilled them first to provide some cooling relief.
But if you didn’t, aren’t or won’t breastfeed, don’t let that stop you from joining the party. Your nipples still need some attention. And Earth Mama Angel Baby’s certified vegan Natural Nipple Butter isn’t just for nipples. I love to use it on my elbows and feet to keep them smooth. I even use it on my husband’s elbows, although he doesn’t know if it Natural Nipple Butter. And it is free of phthalates, 1,4 dioxane and other not so nice ingredients. It is also free of lanolin and instead uses calendula extract.
Join us on February 17, 2010 at 10 pm Eastern time for a fabulous and educational #ecowed party. Be sure to leave a comment below to be eligible to win one of the absolutely fabulous prizes from Earth Mama Angel Baby:
- Earth Mama Angel Baby Breastfeeding Support Kit;

- Two (2) Bosom Buddies; and

A New Era in Biodegradable Disposable Diapers for #ecowed
We’ve heard your many requests for an #ecowed Twitter Party focused on eco-friendly diapering options and we aim to deliver! This week we’ll be chatting with our sponsors and natural living experts Jennifer Grenz and Corina Kuban, Canadian co-founders of Better Baby Bums. We’re looking forward to having a lively discussion about conventional vs. natural diapers:
- Issues with conventional diapers from health and environmental perspectives.
- Comparison and feedback on the natural brands currently on the market from environmental and health perspectives.
- How composting natural diapers actually works.
Truly Natural Disposable Diapers
Believe it or not, there are truly eco-friendly, non-toxic disposable diapers that work great for full-time use or as needed for cloth diapering mamas. Jen and Corina recently launched a U.S. sister store, bringing two of the newest disposable diaper alternatives available on the market to America for the first time!
- Broody Chick Diapers are 100% natural and fully compostable. They contain only natural, fully compostable material from annually renewable resources, with 90% reduction in greenhouse gases vs traditional synthetic material. Broody Chick is proudly a Canadian, BC-based, company. These diapers are packaged in 100% recycled cardboard with plant-based dyes. The list of super star qualities is long: chlorine-free, breathable, hypo-allergenic, fragrance-free, ultra thin, natural super absorbers, G.E.-free, exceptional fit, inner lining is certified to be 100% natural and compostable to EN13432 (EU) Standard and fully compostable to ASTM D 6400 (USA), wood pulp fiber core is naturally biodegradable, waterproof outer is make with bio-film (fecula).
- Bambo Nature Eco-Friendly Diapers are the newest, most exciting 100% biodegradable diapers on the market in North America. Made in Denmark, they are a best-seller all over Europe, offering a super soft feel and superior fit. Stringent standards dictated by the Nordic Swan Eco-Label, make the environmental and health standards for these diapers superior to levels set in the US by other brands. The absorbent core of these diapers has a cornstarch super-absorbent polymer and the pulp used in the diapers is harvested from sustainable Scandinavian forests. These diapers are totally chlorine free and whitens the diapers using an oxygen delignification procress in combination with hydrogen peroxide or ozone.

Wake Up with #ecowed and Healthy Child
For most parents, a wailing baby is our daily wake-up call. Parenthood is a never-ending procession of realizations, do-overs, and wake up calls. We learn something new everyday, and often times our children act as our most powerful teachers.
Over the past 17 years, Healthy Child Healthy World has witnessed the “light-bulb moment” of millions of parents when they learn that their homes, their environments, and their own bodies have been unknowingly contaminated by toxic chemicals. It’s unthinkable that the government hasn’t been protecting our families and that industry has greedily swept aside concern for public health in the face of profit. Parents soon feel betrayed, they feel vulnerable, they feel alone.
That’s where Healthy Child comes in. Healthy Child is there to help parents understand this new reality, to teach them how to minimize risk, and to provide the tools so they can do something about it.
But its time to really shake things up, by waking up every parent in the country.
Join us on Twitter – February 3rd from 10-11 pm EST
- Share your story of what compelled you to wake-up
- Toot your own horn for what you’ve done to help wake-up others
- Help us come up with new ways to wake-up other parents, businesses, and elected officials
- Have a chance to win a prize – we’ll be giving away 3 copies of the Healthy Child Healthy World book, a BornFree Baby Bottle Gift Set, a Klean Kanteen water bottle, the Raising Baby Green book, and a Born Free Microwave Sterilizer!

It’s THAT Time of the Month for #ecowed
You live through it and I live through it, so why not just get it out in the open for our #ecowed chat this week?
Earth Mama Angel Baby is our sponsor for this week’s #ecowed Twitter party and we’re breaking out the big guns! Dr. Katherine Zieman, ND, LM will be joining us to offer her expertise in alternative health options. She has attended more than 1000 births and now keeps busy with a private family practice focusing on pediatrics, women’s issues, infertility and chronic disease. Dr. Zieman has also been a faculty member at the National College of Naturopathic Medicine since 1994 as a member of the Natural Childbirth department.
We’ll be chatting about some great way us girls clear the major hurdles associated with that time of the month:
- Which sanitary products are truly safe and eco-friendly?
- Can you reduce your risk of PMS?
- Natural ways to ease the bloating, cramping, cranky discomfort
- Aromatherapy options: essential oils stimulate your olfactory nerves which in turn affect emotions and can help balance hormones
We have some great prizes for the party too! Five lucky winners will get an Aunt Flo Makeover Pack (includes Monthly Comfort Tea and Happy Mama Spray). Be sure you RSVP by leaving a comment below and watch for our PRIZE tweets during the party asking you to answer a question or retweet a specific phrase to win.
How to Attend the Twitter Party – It’s FREE!!!

As a reminder, please visit our disclaimer and information on Twitter parties. The hosts of our parties are sponsored hosts but the basis for all parties has to do with eco-friendly education. There are many spectrum’s of green but we aim to align ourselves with companies that a) we trust b) we respect c) are trying to do the right thing and be eco-friendly d) that we would buy from or tell our friends about.
