Benefits Of Purchasing Organic Baby Bedding For Your Baby
If you are worried about your baby’s thin skin absorbing the pesticides and fertilizers that can be found in non-organic baby bedding, you will want to purchase nursery bedding that is made from organic cotton.
Even after conventional cotton is harvested, the baby bedding manufacturers use chlorine bleach and toxic dyes to achieve bright whites are varies colors, while organic baby bedding manufacturers use only non-toxic coloring agents.
In organic comforters, bumpers and pillows, not only the outer shell is organic, but also the stuffing made from organic cotton or organic sheep wool. The sheep wool provides resistance to the growth of bacteria and dust mites.
Organic wool comes from sheep that are raised organically. These sheep are moved around to prevent overgrazing which could make the farm land infertile.
Another benefit of organic wool is that it is naturally flame retardant and therefore doesn’t require any chemical fireproofing. Because it doesn’t need to be treated with harsh pesticides, is is also softer than no-organic wool.
You can do your part for making this earth a little greener and benefit from the softness and durability of purchasing 100% organic baby bedding at the same time. Organic bedding does cost more, but with the health and comfort of your baby at risk, it’s a no-brainer. To get started on a budget consider purchasing only the sheets and blankets organic and the crib skirt and bumper, etc. non-organic.
The earth and your own body will thank you for making the choice to buy organic. Did you know that 90% of the pesticides used in cotton farming end up in the soil, water, and the air? From there it’s not long before they end up in your own body.
It’s a slow process, but more and more companies begin manufacturing organic baby nursery bedding and baby bedding sets, increasing the variety of organic baby bedding available. From solid whites, to cream colors, to abstract and whimsical prints, there are plenty of designs to choose from.
