Organic baby clothes - any tips for cheap sources?

mh1923

My sister is expecting in November, and she wants to clothe him in all organic clothing for the first 3 months. I'm not personally convinced that there's any difference in organic or non-organic cotton fabric after it's been washed, but since she is, I'd like to help her find some that's affordable. Does anyone have any tips?

Thanks

All of the clothes from http://www.cut4cloth.co.uk/ are 100% organic cotton. The only thing we bought from there were 2 elasticated bottom cotton nighties - and despite having been used constantly for about 6 months, they are in really good condition.
I think your sister may find that financially it's going to be expensive trying to get everything organic - maybe suggest to her that she just gets vests,nighties, and baby sleeping bags?

http://www.greenbaby.co.uk/ has a sale on at the moment and often has deals

H&M do some organic cotton maternity stuff so they may also do some baby things as well.

www.mini-organic.co.uk has a few cut 4 cloth things in their sale

personally I think on an ethical level reusing (ie buying second hand or borrowing off friends etc) is better than buying new organic and I'm not sure there are benefits to skin contact with organic cotton over non-organic but each parent can be allowed to be idealistic before the baby is born
