There're many baby carriers...I like the ErgoBaby: -It adjusts in many ways making it super comfortable for most shapes/sizes-I can wear it with my 18lbs son for quite awhile before getting tired. -Its comfy for baby-A doula told me that Baby Bjorns put pressure on the sacrum-ErgoBaby doesn't. -It can be worn on the front, back, side and comes with a dvd explaining how. -Front pocket for stuff.

We call this "banana fairy" which makes C laugh, mainly because he loves the word "banana." Organic cotton inside and out, I don't feel badly about it going in baby's mouth-especially since mine has taken it as a personal challenge to get the whole head in his mouth. There are many veggies and fruits, we chose the banana because its easy to hold.

I've heard every baby in France has one. She is the perfect teether because her shape makes gums feel good and her skinny legs are easy to grasp. She is made in the Alps of single source latex and non-toxic paint. If you're trying to avoid plastic, but cloth doesn't cut it and wood is too hard, she's the answer.

Negatives about most cribs: -Most things made of MDF off-gas formaldehyde -Mattresses include chemicals making them fire retardant but the chemicals make them toxic Negative about most wood/natural mattress combos: -They cost $1000+ Positives about Sleepi: -Non-toxic stain -Made of sustainably harvested beech wood -Mattress is made of the foam used in NICUs -Converts to toddler bed-without a kit

Baby Soy clothing is made of 50% cotton and 50% soy and is so so soft. The sweatshirt is reversible and is a great layering piece. Baby kimonos are wonderful if you have a baby that doesn't like things being puller over their head. Even though this set is blue, I think it would work well for boy or girl because its so pretty.

This book may be a good intro to the world of organic baby rearing. Personally, I was already doing everything I could (or could afford to do) so reading this book just made me worry without really being able to do anything. Its really pretty, though.
