    I’m at the point where I started wondering when it was appropriate and safe to graduate my 3 1/2 year old to a booster seat.  Turns out, not yet.  I started to think about it because it’s become increasingly difficult for him to climb in an out of the Britax Advocate he’s using.  While I’m [...]

      It’s come to light that some older models of SIGG reusable aluminum water bottles contain BPA in the epoxy lining inside the bottle.  As you may already know, the lining on the interior of SIGG’s has been questioned for some time and many skeptics thought that the epoxy may contain BPA… turns out they were [...]

        A SafeMama reader actually wrote in to us about CareBags a while ago.  We as eco-conscious shoppers go through the trouble to bring our own bags to the grocery store but then get to the produce aisle and are faced with plastic produce bags.  I was just skipping them but to be honest I hated having [...]

          If you’ve been reading here long enough, you know that we never shut up about Bubble and Bee, or Stephanie.  We love that woman for so many reasons.  One is her lengthy knowledge of chemicals.  I never hesitate to bug her when I have a question about an ingredient.  She’s even guest posted for us [...]

            With my new addition to the family I’ve been reconsidering a lot of things I used the first time around, including our baby tub.  I had a basic blue baby tub with the infant sling attachment and my son always screamed through baths as a little baby.  Only did he start liking being bathed when I [...]

The shampoo conditioner combo lathers nicely and has a very subtle smell to it, which [...]

                  While we all know that breast is best, there are just times when you can’t breastfeed.  My son was strictly formula fed.   I really wanted it to work out with my daughter, but she is just not a good nurser.  She loves the comfort of it, and I do what I can, but there was [...]
