Safe Disposable Diaper Guide

September 7, 2019 | BY Maia James

My original introduction to this section read something like, “Sure, we all know we should use cloth diapers, but how realistic is that, especially here in New York City where many of us don’t even have washing machines? Thank God for these biodegradable diapers from Seventh Generation!” This was back in 2010, and I was using cloth diapers about 25% of the time (and my husband was using them

1. Babo Botanicals / 2. Beautycounter  / 3. Attitude / 4. California Baby / 5. Earth Mama I don't think you need to slather your baby in lotion after every bath, but sometimes a baby's dry skin will be screaming for a moisturizer. As I’ve mentioned before, I’m a huge fan of coconut oil, and we often put a little blob of the organic, unrefined good stuff in the bath with the boys. My

Should You Do Cord Blood Banking?

April 27, 2018 | BY Maia James

Did you choose to do private cord blood banking after your baby's birth? This is one of the first decisions you'll make about something that may affect your child's health, and parents naturally agonize over it. My husband, Daylon, is the Director of the Reproductive Endocrinology at Weill Cornell Medical College as well as a embryonic stem cell research scientist. My pregnant friends often ask

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
