Best Baby Toothbrush

| January 30, 2012

I started weaning my baby onto solids at around 6 months. At that stage she still didn’t have any teeth, but they soon started to show under the gums and all the key signs of teething began – dribbling, chewing on everything, putting her fingers in her mouth and sleepless nights due to teething pains.

My baby’s bottom left tooth was the first to break through the gums, followed a few days later by the bottom right tooth. They looked so adorable and her smile changed, instantly looking less like a baby.

With the introduction of solids and teeth it was time to find the best baby toothbrush!

The Baby Ono – Safe Silicone Finger Toothbrushis safe and easy to use. It’s made of soft 100% food grade silicone and fits on your finger. You can add a little Baby Toothpaste to the bristles and very gently massage it over your baby’s teeth and gums.

I found my baby enjoyed chewing on the toothbrush with my finger in it, which proved a great way to clean her teeth and gums. It’s very soft so it won’t hurt your baby’s gums and can be used to massage the gums during teething to help ease discomfort.

The Brush-Baby Chewable Toothbrushis made of 100% safe silicone and is BPA free. Suitable from 0 months old to 3 years, it fits accurately in baby’s mouth to provide the right amount of cleansing of the teeth and gums. As well as helping to clean teeth and massage gums, the Brush-Baby toothbrush can also be used to soothe teething gums when chewed.

I use Green People Organic Baby Toothpaste which my baby loves the taste of and it’s 100% safe if swallowed. It’s natural, organic and without fluoride so you can be sure there are no nasties in it. It’s recommended by midwives and suitable for babies and children.

Time Saving Tip

It can take absolutely ages to transfer photographs and videos from your camera to your computer. Time that quite frankly, as a parent, we just don’t have enough of!

To quickly and easily transfer hundreds of photos from my camera to my computer I use the Integral USB External Memory Card Readerand simply put my camera’s memory card into the USB Card Readerand plug it into a USB port on my computer.

It then transfers all photos and videos in a few seconds, directly to my computer. It’s so much faster than transferring them from my camera to my computer and it saves me precious time, so I can get on with something else!

Organic Babies Nappy Cream

| January 25, 2012

Nappy cream is crucial for keeping your baby’s delicate bottom area smooth and free from nappy rash, which can cause very irritated and sore skin.

I don’t use medicated creams on my baby if I don’t have to, preferring to keep my baby as chemical free as possible.

Looking for a natural alternative to medicated nappy creams, my search for the best natural nappy cream led me to Green People who produce a wonderful and gentle, highly effective Organic Babies Nappy Cream Baby Balm.

It’s 100% natural and uses organic ingredients, helping to protect the skin against dampness which can lead to nappy rash.

And if you suffer from dry skin, Organic Babies Mum and Baby Rescue Balm is perfect for healing and gentle enough for use on mother and baby.
