Back when my first daughter was born, we brought our brand new bundle of joy home from the hospital and clothed her in pink everything! Our first days as a family of four were such a joyful blur, but one memory lingers. Almost instantly, my precious newborn developed a terrible diaper rash. Within a week, we were at the doctor for this rash and were told it was in fact a second degree, blistering burn! I was horrified. we were using "natural" baby wipes and cloth diapers, so how could this happen? The doctor recommended only using a wet wash cloth to wipe her until her burn healed. With that new protocol, her burn began to improve quickly, and I began to be MUCH more conscience of what was in the products we used. Even though we had been purchasing "natural" huggies wipes, the harsh chemicals had burned my newborns skin and I was ready for change! When I heard about Seventh Generations' sampling program, I was really excited to check out their wipes and try them for free. I love usuing cloth wipes with our cloth diapers... but there are times when that's totally impractical, so it's important to have back-up wipes handy in diaper bags and at home. The 7th Generation wipes were gentle and caused no irritation on my little ones. I was thrilled with the ingredients [or lack there of!] We're certainly going to be stocking up for baby #4, and grabbing some of their diapers too!
