Back before I had my children, I never really thought I would belong to a mothers group. However, now that I have become a new mother, talking to other parents about what is going on in my life has been a huge help. We chat about how we bring up our children, what to do and not to do, we share baby food recipes, and we like to chat about the newest baby outfits we have picked up.

I generally meet with 2 other women, once a month, to catch up on the latest new. We generally meet at Charlestons Restaurant (which is in CARMEL, IN) as that is quite central for all of us. Last month was really exciting because we chatted about baby clothes. I have been feeding my baby organic produce from the beginning but I had not considered purchasing organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most broadly grown products in the world and one of the most devastating to the ecosystem and to farmers. The run off from these farms has damaged ecosystems and in particular water supplies. Organic cotton is produced without using artificial fertilisers and chemicals. Instead, organic farming depends on things like crop rotation, enhancing soils naturally, and using organic insect control practices.

You can purchase soft organic cotton baby outfits online from a number of stores. Sckoon has some gorgeous organic baby apparel.

Benefits of Choosing Organic Products

Purchasing organic clothes means you are getting produce which have been produced in an eco-friendly manner, or at least in a way which causes less damage to our habitat. No or a reduction in the use of herbicides and synthetic fertilisers means less pollution of our farms and rivers, less diseases for farm workers, and fewer health risks for our babies and children by lessening their contact with dangerous chemicals.

Several wholesalers of baby clothes also make a range of organic clothes or you can find wholesalers solely dedicated to organic baby clothing. Thankfully, there are a lot of designs to choose from and all ages are taken care of, from babies to teenagers. Naturally, organic fashion for men and women is also obtainable and I am looking into that for myself and my husband.

I am not saying that I am just going to get organic cotton or bamboo cotton clothing (which is a good alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my child but I am definitely going try to whenever I can.
