The Ultimate Natural, Non-Toxic and as Organic as Possible List of Baby Stuff

Ok so this was not on my list of things to do buttttt babies and their tiny bodies are most susceptible to toxins and of the other Non-toxic, organic, natural baby registries I could find they were all out dated, like from 2020 or before where most of the products I couldn't even find and I wandered what was new/better or they were priced so high (yes you get what you pay for) but I couldn't register for them and send the list out to friends and family who couldn't afford to spend hundreds...

So here we are 30+ hours later...

Also let me just preface with I'm a first time Mama to be so this is based on research from ingredients, certifications etc but also asking other Mama's their experience with products and what they actually used and loved!

Also these are clickable links to add to your cart or baby registry! (no I'm not just asking for baby gifts, this isn't my actual registry haha)

So why Natural, Non-Toxic, Organic, anyways?

Specifically, the ingredients in most conventional products are man-made. And the majority of them cannot be broken down by our bodies. Meaning, our systems just don’t understand what to do with them. These ingredients cause alterations to our hormones, our digestive system, and how our bodies function as a whole.

Now break that down for a newborn baby. The six main chemicals used in baby products (phthalates, talc, proplyene glycol, parabens, 1,4-dioxane and methylated surfants, formaldehyde) can cause:

• Skin irritations
• Digestive trouble
• Allergies
• Hormone disruptions
• Developmental disorders
• Far more

To get started:

1. I always start by searching for" organic"

2. Then search for items "certified" (GOTS-Global Organic Textile Standard certified Greenguard certified, Oeko-Tek certified)

3. Then I look on EWG (Environmental Working Group) Skin Deep Database (www.ewg.org/skindeep) for products and some food/beverage (you can also scan barcodes and take it with you on the go with the app)

4. I then try to search for ingredients and look for the least possible and easiest to pronounce

But in case you didn't want to spend 30+ hours on this here's what's on my baby registry:

(also I included a few options because I realized a lot was in a out of stock from the time I started to the time I finished my registry- and apparently some babies like one brand of bottles or pacis or bouncers where others don't, I have also gone through post baby and deleted what I didn't like) and what I loved in our non toxic nursery and all the baby things.

Cord Blood Registry:

I spent months researching and research cord bank companies, going back and forth. Personally I chose to save the cord blood and tissue where the stem cells are and not the placenta. Reasons FOR ME being I couldn't find any added benefit adding the placenta other than from companies "selling" it. The placenta is a "filtering" device which is why it's not always recommended to encapsulate (personally I chose to do this since I am constantly running lab tests on myself and run quarterly functional medicine detoxes before pregnancy. I will also add I chose cord blood registry for the price, not needing to pay all upfront or for a 20- year storage immediately (ya'll it's priced like toilet paper-impossible to compare, size, options etc lol)  and found their reputation, customer service and reviews good!

 Cord Blood Registry

Diaper Subscription:

I chose Every Life Diapers because Every Life is Every Life because every life matters, from their mission to what they DON’T put in their products: fragrances, dyes, lotions, latex, parabens, phthalates, elemental chlorine

But what they do, do (see what I did there): Supports First 1000 Days of Life, 12 hour leak protection for better sleep, Flow Channel Technology for faster absorption, Better flow distribution reduces sagging and irritation, Supremely soft for baby’s ultimate comfort, Wetness indicator alerts when it’s time for a change

Every Life: BREA10 for an extra discount!

(update- best diaper I tried out of 10 different brands, plus thicker wipes so you don't use as many, subscription is cheaper than purchasing in store)
