    Also brilliant for cleaning tomato stains off white hight chair trays when hot soapy water doesn't

    I can not believe that baby wipes contain propylene glycol!

    Yep - babies bottoms (and their sensitive genetalia region) are no place for the toxic ingredients in commercial baby wipes. The bigger the brand the worse they tend to be.
    Its a catch 22 - they can cause inflamed skin and rashes - so then you need to buy some of their toxin-filled nappy rash cream.

    Go cloth and save $$ and chemicals!! Natures Child organic cotton cloth wipes are good - very soft. And their organic Bottom Balm is divine - I use it on my lips!

    I use the sensitive huggies baby wipe, but day care use something else and DS bottom is always red after being there. Never really thought about how harsh they might be.

    You know what scares the crap out of me? Seeing that where the bottle of toddler-suitable aeroguard had leaked onto the window sill in the kitchen had stripped all the paint off! I kid you not! It was stripped right back to very nearly the timber itself. I couldn't believe it and wont use it on the kids now. I would rather they have a few mozzie bites than that stuff on their skin.
