When you become pregnant it is as if everyone around you as earned a doctorate over night and you are inundated not only with family and friends, but strangers espousing all sorts of wisdom and advice. Children have been raised for thousands of years so we are subject to either folklore influenced or medically sound advice. It can be enough to confuse even the most well-meaning parents to be. Also, in today's society there is a push towards a greener way of living that has us limiting our impact on the earth by buying sustainably and this carries over to child rearing. Purchasing organic onesies is just one way of taking care of both your child and the planet at large.
While that may sound like odd advice, the fact of the matter is that your child will be living exclusively in onesies of at least the first year of life. Going through that many articles of clothing and having them be organic, makes an impact on both the planet and your baby.
With their immune systems still maturing and solidifying, children are susceptible to a number of factors including environmental - something that you can control. Baby skin is quite sensitive to the chemicals that our bodies are used to, so just using a regular onesie of mixed fiber can be irritating against your child's skin.
Organic cotton is pesticide free and will not irritate your baby's skin.
On the side of being green, organic baby clothing are wonderful in establishing yourself as an eco parent. Doing everything green and sustainable can be daunting for childless individuals, but once you add a baby into the mix the chaos that ensues makes it hard to stick to the original plan. Having organic clothing on hand can have you taking small steps to still be environmentally minded.
Being good to your child and the planet does not need to be an either or situation. The organic kind will be soothing to your baby's skin and kind to the planet at large without making a large dent in your budget.
