[quote=Anonymous]I would cool it on the toys (they don't last long anyway) and just focus on cleaning and baby products -- get a HEPA filter vacuum and air purifiers. Use non toxic cleansers. I use water with a squirt of dr bronners and essential oil for much of my cleaning. Switched to a greener soap for dishwashing. Fragrance free detergent and use the extra rinse function. Bottles, sippy cups, should be glass or other material that's not cheap plastic made in China. Use Water Wipes or washcloths instead of Huggies/Pampers scented wipes.

TBH I even cloth diapered for awhile but it was giving DS a rash, so we use both cloth and conventional.

Pay attention to rugs and furnishings. New furniture and carpet off gas terribly. Buy stuff in advance. For my baby's playroom, I bought a natural fiber rug. For his nursery, I put the furniture together, painted etc way in advance and also let the mattress breathe months before he arrived.

Just do what you can, but relax if you aren't at 100% all the time. MIL buys cheap bibs and plastic toys and Gerber spoons and I accept and use them with thanks. [/quote]
