Why I Don't Buy Bamboo Fabric

One of the most common fabrics for baby onesies/pajamas and bed sheets is bamboo. It *seems* like a natural fabric and therefore a good choice, right?

Yes, bamboo is a plant and "natural" in and of itself, but in order to turn the plant into fabric/thread, there are very highly corrosive chemical compounds used (carbon disulfide, sodium hydroxide, and sulfuric acid).

This makes bamboo fabric a semi-synthetic so no, I do not recommend bamboo clothing or sheets from companies like Cozy Earth, Little Sleepies, or Kyte Baby. I do not to wear bamboo. I don't dress my kids in it. And we do not have bamboo sheets in our house.

Instead we love organic cotton for our sheets and baby onesies/pajamas!

Here are my favorite brands:

Parade

Colored Organics

Honest Baby

Burt's Bees

**Just a note on these brands: if you want your onesies to last for more than one baby, I would go with Parade and Colored Organics as they are higher quality. If you only need them to last through one baby, then Honest and Burt's Bees will work - they just fall apart more easily but they are a little bit less expensive.

For sheets, check out the following:

Quince's organic cotton sheets (my code is INFG-25THEORGANIMAMA10 for 10% off!)

Naturepedic (my code is ORGANIMAMA for 15% off)
