At last! Baby wear for 2009 is going back to basics - beautiful basics. Organic baby wear has becoming increasingly popular as more and more people consider the environment and fabrics made from purely natural materials are being called for.
Cotton clothing for babies - just as it used to be - is where baby wear is coming from for the new season. Floral dresses for little girls in crisp, pure cotton and cotton drill trousers for boys are all highly durable but made from natural materials that don't have any ill effects on the environment when they are produced.
Cotton baby wear is highly environmentally friendly as it is so durable that it can then be passed on and re-used, saving the need and cost of keep making more. It can also easily be re-cycled at the end of its life and made into more clothing.
These are all things that mothers have known over the years but unfortunately, it has previously been more a matter of cost and the profit margin that baby wear manufacturers want to see. It may not be environmentally friendly to use man made fabrics for clothing but it is certainly cheaper and this was what manufacturers were looking at.
However, it has now come to the point where they need to listen to what parents want and fortunately, there are enough baby wear producers around for parents to favour those that make natural products. These have been used for many reasons of which eco-friendliness is just one.
More and more children are becoming prone to skin rashes. This is due in part to central heating and a change over the years in diet but also to the over-use of man-made fabrics which can easily irritate the sensitive skin of a young baby.
Nylon, polyester and acrylic are the worst ingredients to have in your baby wear if you have a sensitive baby. The worst result is eczema which can become irritated when these fabrics are next to the skin. This will lead to itching and open scratches and sores and consequently, interrupted sleep for all.
Cotton is the first natural product you would think of aiming for in baby wear but you can also use silk if your child is allergic. This may sound a bit extreme but if you can afford it, it's a very good fabric to use. It will keep baby cool in summer and warm in winter. It is a light, breathable material that will not irritate your child's skin.
If your baby is prone to skin rashes because of the material of clothing, you should also consider changing bedding for wholly natural fibres and also check your washing powder and fabric softener, changing them for sensitive ones is a good idea.
One thing is for certain - whether your baby has sensitive skin or not, they will always benefit from wearing natural materials next to their skin. You simply cannot beat the comfort factor of a pure cotton baby gro or socks and cardigans. They are also great for the parents as they are easy to wash.
At the end of the day, everybody wants what is best for their baby and ensuring they have the best start in life should include introducing them to things that are best for them. Regardless of cost, a few essential items of clothing made from the best fabrics you can afford are better than a whole wardrobe of nylon! |
