Why Breastfeeding and cloth diapering go great together!
SO you've made the decision to breast feed and it is going
amazing, high five to you! We know it isn't always easy. Breast feeding is a
learned skill for both Mom and baby and although can be tricky to master at
first breastfeeding can have huge benefits for both Mom and baby including
making cloth diapering beyond easy for the first few months.
Here is the secret: exclusively breastfed baby’s poop is
almost completely liquid so it is super easy to remove before putting the diaper for washing into the washing machine or pail. The washing machine does the work and does a
great job at getting the diapers perfectly clean. How cool is that? Breastfeeding and cloth diapers are a match
made in heaven!
Breast Feeding + Cloth Diapering = Healthy , Happy Baby :)

Cotton muslin is one of the world’s oldest, most cherished woven fabric. Made with dual-layer organic cotton, this wonderfully soft fabric provides gentle comfort for your precious one. Muslin permits air to circulate around the baby's body, while still providing comfort and warmth without the worry that the baby may overheat in moderate weather. Products made from muslin stand up to repeated washing's only becoming softer and better with age. That is why mothers through uncountable generations have been relying on this versatile fabric to care for their babies.
BumChum Muslin products are carefully designed to preserve the goodness of this
fabric, and to encourage its multiple uses as the baby grows. Delicate and breathable,
these products are a perfect addition to your nursery.

PURA Stainless Steel Baby Bottles and Sippers
Pura Stainless was created with
a simple vision - to make a difference by responsibly manufacturing toxin-free,
durable, and cost effective alternatives to bottled water and the
petroleum-based (ie plastic) reusable bottles and food storage containers.
Our infant, toddler, and adult
product lines are not only the safest in the world but they have won an array
of global awards and accolades. In this day and age there is simply no reason
to expose yourself or your little ones to toxin-laden plastics or to contribute
to the massive waste problem created by bottled water.
But obviously we are not the
only non-plastic alternative available. Many of our future customers have asked
us why our products are the best on the market; take five minutes to read
through the information below and we think you too will be a Pura advocate!
Made
of safe, food-grade stainless steel
All Pura bottles are crafted
from #304, also known as 18/8, food-grade stainless steel. Known for its
resistance to corrosion and staining, and antibacterial properties, it is
perfectly suited for use as a beverage container. In fact, many commercial food
transport, storage and preparation products are made of #304 stainless steel
due to these properties. And because stainless steel does not react with acidic
foods or beverages, it will not affect the flavor of your beverage.
One Life... One Bottle Durability
Stainless steel is much more durable than plastic, glass or aluminum bottles. Steel bottles do not shatter or crack like glass and plastic and are much more puncture resistant than aluminum. We are so confident in our bottles that we back all stainless components with a limited lifetime warranty. Cared for properly your Pura bottle will be a trusty companion for years!
The
Safest Bottles on the Planet... Non-Toxic and truly BPA-free
Pura bottles are non-toxic and
truly 100% BPA-free. All bottles, components, and accessories are independently
tested by a leading global testing lab and certified to have no detectable
levels of Bisphenol-a (BPA), lead, phthalates or nitrosamines. Bottles that are
either made from plastic or use plastic caps, sip spouts, or travel covers
cannot make this claim as virtually all plastics have some level of BPA which
will show up in independent testing.
All Pura products feature
stainless steel lids, caps and/or infant nipple/spout collars in combination
with medical grade silicone so the contents of the bottle are NEVER in contact
with plastic and therefore there is zero chance of ingesting BPA or other
petroleum-derived toxins.
All Pura products meet or
exceed all relevant FDA requirements. Because safety is our primary concern we
also meet or exceed the more stringent Consumer Product Safety Commission
(CPSC) guidelines and the European Commission Directive 2002/72/EC.
Infant & Toddler Bottles that Adapt to the Needs of your Child
We strongly feel that kid's
bottles should adapt to the needs of the child, not the other way around. As a
result, our patent pending Kiki infant bottles can be converted into a
spill-proof toddler sippy bottle - and our toddler cup can be converted into an
infant bottle just by swapping the nipple and spouts. And, if your child has a
strong preference for another manufacturer's nipple or spout, our bottle will
probably work with those as well.
Sandblasted
Interior Surfaces on Kiki Products
After electro-polishing the
Kiki infant and toddler bottles, we take the extra step to sandblast all
interior surfaces. This creates an ultra smooth surface that aids in cleaning.
To our knowledge no other infant and toddler bottle manufacture takes this
extra step.
Chuggable, Wide-Mouth Top
Our Kiki infant and toddler
line also feature a wide neck as this design has been proven to support breast
feeding and, when combined with the vented Pura silicone nipples and sip
spouts, help prevent colic and the swallowing of air. Of course wide neck
infant and toddler bottles are much easier to clean and fill than old school
narrow neck bottles.
Backed
by a Lifetime Warranty
We're so confident in our
bottles we've backed them with an unprecedented lifetime
warranty.
Award
Winning Innovation
Pura is proud to have been selected
as one of the TOP 50 Small Businesses in the USA for 2009 by Intuit and Working
Mother Magazine chose Pura as the Best Family Eco Style Company in March 2010.
A European architectural design publishing house has chosen the Kiki line as a
cutting-edge example of innovation in children's products and will feature the
product in a book to be published in 2010. The patent pending Kiki line has
also been featured in countless reviews, magazines, blogs, and television
shows.
Plastic Feeding Bottles, a Health Hazard
A new study by leading
researchers (Yang et al)1 clearly shows that BPA-free plastic
components in juvenile bottles, adult bottles, and food storage vessels release
chemicals that have been linked to a host of health related issues including
(but not limited to): increased rates of breast, ovarian, testicular, and
prostate cancer; early puberty in females, obesity, and altered functions of
reproductive organs
The study focuses on
leaching of chemical components, inherent to all plastics, that cause estrogenic
activity (EA). It was found that virtually all plastic compounds including
those labeled "BPA-free" leach chemicals that result in estrogenic
activity. In fact, many of the BPA-free plastic formulations leachmore EA
inducing chemicals than the old BPA-laden products (polycarbonate)! Even more
alarming is the fact that estrogenic activity is induced by VERY low doses of
these chemicals (in some cases 1 part per billion). The study also finds that
"stressing" the plastic by exposing it to high humidity heat
(dishwasher or boiling) or UV (UV sterilizers) accelerates the release of these
chemicals. Most parents subject their bottles to these conditions on a daily
basis.
According to Yang et
al:
1.
"Almost all
commercially available plastic products we sampled – independent of the type of
resin, product or retail source – leached chemicals having reliably detectable
EA, including those advertised as BPA-free. In some cases, BPA-free products
released chemicals having more EA than did BPA-containing products."
2.
"We found that
exposure to one or more common-use stresses often increases the leaching of
chemicals having EA. In fact, our data suggest that almost all commercially
available plastic items would leach detectable amounts of chemicals having EA
once such items are expose to boiling water, sunlight (UV) and/or
microwaving."
According to the study
presented every baby bottle (containing plastic) tested (ref
Table 2 of study) leached chemicals that have been shown to cause estrogenic
activity and thereby lead to enhanced risks of a myriad of health problems.
Every juvenile (infant and toddler) bottle on the market except those
manufactured by Pura Stainless (Kiki line) employ plastic for the collar that
holds the nipple or spout. Most bottles also include additional plastic
components such as nipple covers, sealing disks, handles, spouts, etc.
This
research is ground breaking and clearly shows the extent to which the use of
plastic vessels/containers for food and beverage storage are hazardous to our
health. It is likely the established juvenile product companies and plastics
conglomerates will dismiss this as either unproven or a non-issue. Sounds a bit
like their position when BPA was shown to cause similar problems, doesn't it?
Show these firms that they cannot get away with double speak and the dumping
inferior products on our children in the name of higher profit margins. There
is only one true solution to this issue... eliminate all plastic from juvenile
feeding products.
At
present there is only one line of infant and toddler bottles that are
completely devoid of plastic, the Pura Stainless line of Kiki products. These
US and Internationally patent pending bottles employ a stainless collar that
captures the nipple or spout and a silicone nipple cover. Toxicity tests
conducted by an independent global testing agency found no detectable levels of
any plastic by-products in these bottles. Fortunately, the Kiki line of bottles
also feature the first modular lid system that allows the Kiki bottles to be
used with nipples and spouts from a wide range of vendors so parents no longer
needs to choose an inferior bottle because their child prefers a specific
nipple.
The bottom line: Plastic feeding and hydration
products, including BPA-free plastic products, are NOT safe for use!
