I am all about saving money, especially these days. So when I can reuse something, I get really excited. When it comes to nursing pads, I choose to use reusable nursing pads made from cotton. This is because they are so much more softer than the plastic chemical-filled breastfeeding pads and way less expensive.
Lullaby Loft makes extremely soft and comfortable nursing pads. The outer most layer is made of 100 % cotton flannel, and the inner most layer is made from 100 % organic cotton batting. Cotton is great because unlike the disposable nursing pads, your skin can breathe. This greatly reduces the risk of infections which I am totally in favor of!
Lullaby Loft makes each pad 5 inches in diameter which is the perfect size for most nursing bras. I love that these pads do not hurt your skin when you pull them away. Disposable nursing pads always tore me a part which makes breastfeeding a pain.
You can't beat $5.00 for a pack of two! When you purchase Lullaby Loft's nursing pads, you can rest assured that you are saving money, doing good for your body, as well as being kind to the earth.

If I find something that I love, normally I do not stray from that one thing. For instance, if I go to a restaurant, I will order the same thing over and over again. This is the same for my kid's body wash and lotions. From day one I have been using the same bath washes and lotions on my children. Just recently I was given Method Baby as a baby gift. At first I was skeptical, but then I used it on my little girl, and fell in love!
You know how a baby's skin is super soft? Well imagine washing your little one in something so pure and natural that it makes their super soft skin 100 times softer! This is what you get when you use Method Baby's Squeaky Green Baby Hair and Body Wash.
Method Baby not only makes your child's skin soft, but it also smells like your giving your child a bath in pure chocolate. It is 99% natural and tear free which is great for little wigglers. Plus, I love that the lid to the body wash can be used as a rinse cup - very eco-friendly!

Breastfeeding in public used to be such a chore for me. This is partly because the only thing that I had to cover up with was a few bulky baby blankets. First of all, it is very difficult to keep a small baby blanket over your shoulder while trying to see your little one underneath. Second of all, I felt as if my baby could not breath very well.
Just recently I found the most beautiful certified organic cotton nursing covers from Rogelito's Closet. These nursing covers are great because they are the perfect size to cover you and your precious baby. Plus, they are easy to use with an adjustable velcro strap.
Each nursing cover from Rogelito's Closet is made from organic cotton grown in India. Also, all of the nursing covers have Harmony Arts fabric which means the patterns have eco-friendly water base dyes and pigments.
I love that these nursing covers have rigilene boning in the neckline! It definitely makes breastfeeding in public very easy because you do not have to constantly pick up the fabric to see your baby. The fabric just naturally sits away from your body to where you can peek in from time to time.
Not only does Rogelito's Closet carry fantastic organic nursing covers, but they also carry organic baby blankets, organic burp cloths, and super adorable organic toddler skirts. Make sure to visit Rogelito's Closet at www.rogelitoscloset.com or www.rogelitoscloset.etsy.com to see all of their amazing products.
Chemicals vs organic? This is the choice that breastfeeding mothers must decide upon when it comes to breastfeeding pads. I don't know about you, but I choose organic! Why use disposable breastfeeding pads when all they do is constantly move around, cause discomfort, and most of all they are just plain boring? Did you know that there are many chemicals in disposable breastfeeding pads that can cause yeast infections? Yuck!
POSH Pads have extremely adorable breastfeeding pads that are made from bamboo and organic cotton layers. Bamboo is one of my favorite fibers because it is naturally antibacterial which helps keep away allergens and infections. Plus, bamboo is highly absorbent and allows for breathe ability.
For the outermost layer, POSH Pads use designer fabrics from two artists whom are known for their eco-friendly fabrics . There are so many amazing designs and patterns to choose from that it is impossible to buy just one pair!
These pads are super soft, comfortable, and mold to your body. I love that POSH Pads are not bulky, and they don't move around. I feel like a million dollars when I wear these pads because I know that they are good for my skin and good for the earth.
Unlike disposable breast pads, POSH Pads can be used over and over again. When you are done breastfeeding your little ones, you can use them for other things like cleaning, patches on clothes, make-up, etc.
Your body and our earth are easily worth the investment of $8.95 for a fashionable pair of POSH Pads! Visit www.MyPoshPads.com to get yourself a few pair today. And don't forget that these make amazing gifts as well!
Hot Flash Knitting makes the softest bottle covers. Each cover is made from organic wool which makes them extremely soft. There are so many beautiful colors to choose from as well as different styles.
I love that the bottle covers from Hot Flash Knitting can be used on plastic baby bottles as well as glass baby bottles. These covers come in handy for those annoying leaks that bottles can create as well as keeping formula or breast milk warm and / or cold.
My little one loves to hold her bottle, drop it on the floor, and then pick it back up to start the cycle all over again. I know from experience that the Hot Flash Knitting covers really do work! You will no longer have to worry about glass bottles breaking.
Another great aspect of the bottle covers is that they can be hand washed. Just wash in cold water, and let air dry on a bottle. Easy as one, two, three! Best of all they are very affordable at $8.00 per cozy; therefore, you can buy as many as you need without hurting your wallet.
Check out these fabulous bottle covers at www.hotflashknitting.etsy.com. You will also be able to see all of the other great products that they offer like baby / toddler slippers, scarves, felted clog slippers, etc.
