Natural Product for a Healthier Baby

    I would like to share with you natural ideas for your baby & children using a natural product in place of harmful products that are currently on the market.

One product that I use in my home is baking soda. It has so many uses for every thing & best of all baking soda is very inexpensive.

Let’s start with natural ideas for the new baby.

1.To keep that baby bottles, nipple & rings fresh, soak them overnight in a bowl filled with hot water &   ½ box of baking soda. A faster way would be to boil the bottles for three minutes in 3 tablespoons of baking soda & water.

2. Keep a small squeeze bottle filled with a mix of ½  water & ½ baking soda for when baby spits up to neutralize the spot with a quirt & a blot.

3.Wash new baby clothes in mild soap & ½ cup baking soda to remove any chemical finishes.

4. To get rid of cradle cap, mix baking soda & water to make a thin paste. You will want to leave it on the baby’s head for a few minutes. Then wash off. This will also remove sand from the scalp. Then rinse baby comb in mixture of baking soda & water.

5. To remove cradle cap. You can add baby oil instead of baking soda to the scalp.

6. Fight diaper rash when you soak baby’s bottom in warm water & a little baking soda. You can also reduce fevers by using a baking soda bath.

7. One great idea to remove crayon stains, catsup, etc from high chair trays is to rub dry baking soda on the tray then wipe off.

8. Freshen baby & kid’s toys that can’t be washed by putting the toys in a bag with baking soda. Let sit for 15-20 minutes, then shake or vacuum the baking soda off the toys. The toys will be fresh & clean.
