[quote=Anonymous]We use Aveeno products on our DD since they were recommended by our pediatrician.  When all the news on parabens and such came out, I kind of panicked too.  But, you have to keep it in perspective.  How many kids do you know who grew up marinated in Johnson & Johnson?  Lots, I'm sure.  IMO, you can't just read the risk levels on the EWG's website w/o considering the "real" risk that the item poses.  For instance, something branded a 3 might be branded as such because is contains a chemical that has a 3% chance of causing cancer in a lab rat.  Not to mention, that an item branded a 2 might cause an allergic reaction in your particular child. EVERYTHING comes w/ risks-- food, toys, cosmetics, etc.  You have to pick and choose your battles or you'll drive yourself crazy.  At one of my DD's well-visits, I asked my pediatrician which of the "hot topic" environmental risks I should really worry about.  I'm sure many doctor's would disagree, but she said pesticides on food, hormones in milk, and lead.  I've chosen to put bath products low on my list.[/quote]
