Safe Baby Bottle Cheat Sheet

February 8, 2018 | BY Maia James

All bottle-feeding moms want the best non-toxic baby bottles for their babies, whether the bottles are is filled with breastmilk or formula or even water. Here's how to make sure you're using truly non-toxic baby bottles. 1. Avoid Plastic Baby Bottles (including “BPA-free” ones!) Plastic bottles are tempting---they are inexpensive, readily available, lightweight, and hard to break. But plastic

HiPP Versus Holle: Which European Infant Formula is Healthier?

January 30, 2018 | BY Maia James

Below is an email I recently sent to a private client of mine. Since the number one question I receive is "What is the safest infant formula?," I thought some of you might be interested in my analysis of the two safest brands of baby formula, HiPP vs. Holle (both from Europe). Note that whichever formula you choose, you should always use a water filter to remove chlorine (carcinogenic) and

How I Nursed Three Kids Without Going (Too) Crazy

January 17, 2018 | BY Colleen Webb

Until recently, I was nursing three kids: a newborn, a two-year-old, and a four-year-old. When other women hear this, the most common thing they say is, “Oh my gosh, I could never do that!” Moms often share stories about how they weaned their older child in anticipation of a new baby arriving. I don’t think nursing two or more kids is as hard as many people assume, but it’s also not for

Is Goat Milk Formula Healthier?

September 26, 2017 | BY Maia James

UPDATED: March 2018 Organic baby formula is a hot topic here; in fact, it’s what you guys ask about most! I understand—you want to make sure that what you’re feeding your babies and toddlers is the best stuff possible, and there are about a gajillion types of organic baby formula now on the market. I've reviewed many of them in my Safe Infant Formula Guide, but this post is dedicated

Review of Holle Lebenswert Infant Formula

July 23, 2015 | BY Maia James

First, read my affiliate disclosure. As a breastfeed-until-they're-in-braces type, I never thought I would spend so much time writing about formula! (Here's our Safe Formula Guide, here's where I review Honest Company Formula, and here's where I take two European formulas head to head. But I try to research the topics and products that you're most worried about, and I hear you loud and clear:

Holle Organic Infant Follow-on Formula

Where to Buy European Infant Formula

May 29, 2015 | BY Maia James

First, read my affiliate disclosure. As you may have seen in our updated Safe Infant Formula Guide, I recently recommended Lebenswert as the healthiest infant formula on the market (yes, even better than Holle and HiPP!). Unfortunately, it's become harder and harder for American parents to find European formulas as they are no longer available on Amazon. Some parents have resorted to buying

My big project for the next few weeks is going through all our Safe Product Guides and updating each one with additional information I have learned since their original publication, plus of course adding new products that have entered the market (or changed their formulas) and are Good, Bad, or Sneaky. A recent email I received from a reader (pasted below) prompted me to start with the Safe

The Honest Company Premium Formula

Honest Company’s Infant Formula Review

February 23, 2015 | BY Maia James

As soon as The Honest Company’s infant formula hit the market, we were flooded with emails asking, “Is this the Good Stuff?” After putting the Honest formula through our research and review process, our answer is…sort of. Essentially, Honest’s formula is the same as the rest of the Jessica Alba product line: definitely well-intentioned, definitely better than most conventional stuff, not quite

The Pendulum Swings: Breastfeeding

February 2, 2015 | BY Maia James

You know how we feel about breastfeeding here at Gimme the Good Stuff. Our president, Maia James, breastfeeds her kids until they are pushing three. She has written about why she thinks the benefits of breastfeeding have not been overstated, despite headlines to that effect last year. And whenever we talk about the best formulas out there, it's always with the caveat that no formula comes close to
