  • I recommend Joonya wipes. No nasty ingredients

    • I don't believe they're supposed to be ingested.

        the skin of newborns is supposedly four times as porous as adult skin. You can bet that whatever products you're putting on their skin are being absorbed. It's thought that the decline of fertility in humans is related to the absorbption of particular endocrine disrupting chemicals through the skin and by ingestion.

        • the skin of newborns is supposedly four times as porous as adult skin

          FIrstly, human skin is porous, rocks are (it describes the void/spaces/crackes/pores in the rock). I believe the term you mean is permeability (which is how easily water & other materials can pass through)?
          Any whoever told you that statement is incorrect, and certainly not in full term babies (under 32 wks, their skin hasn't developed effective barriers). It's certainly more easily damaged then of toddlers and upwards (then goes backwards from about 30's onwards). But trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL), the technique of choice for evaluating skin barrier function, shows that the TWEL in the inguinal region (groin) between healthy new borns and adults it is similar. There are big differences in areas like the forehead (adults are better) & palms (new borns are better - go figure).

          You can bet that whatever products you're putting on their skin are being absorbed

          No you can't. in fact the moisturisers & emmollients used in baby wipes actually helps keep the skin hydrated and healthy (they help increase TEWL), which is what helps keeps the skin barrier healthy and thus reduces permeablility. When the barrier is weakened due to skin damage (notably nappy rash), there might be issues. But again the moisturisers & emmollients in baby wipes help repapir the skin. Of course using a zinc (or I prefer the out of favour petroleum) based barrier cream can help protect the skin, by adding a barrier and allow it to repair naturally.

          It's thought that the decline of fertility in humans is related to the absorbption of particular endocrine disrupting chemicals through the skin and by ingestion.

          It's thought that stuff made up & published on the internet is true too. I'm yet to see any credible published scientific research to support such a notion. But I'm happy to be pointed in the direction of some.

          Sure, go for the all natural products if it makes you feel better. but don't be fooled by the naturalistic fallacy used by marketing to convince you that something is better because it's natural. Clothes arent natural, but you wear them, because you're better off. Ebola is natural, but you don't want to be ingesting that. Polio, measles, whooping cough, hepititus are all natural, but I bet (well hope) you're vaccinated against them. Poo is natural, but I bet you still wipe your bum. Brushing your teeth isn't natural, but I bet you do it.

      • I know it’s only a study and not proven but this was enough for me to change from wipes containing sulphate laureate and parabens You say the wipes help the skin barrier. I’m not so sure about that. When it comes to a babies skin I think it’s better to be safe than sorry later in life.
        Here’s an article in the subject

  • Also 2 for $25 on the Opti Gold formula range, making it cheaper than Aldi's own brand of formula (I think).

  • +2

    $7.50 for Dymples 6×80 pack @ Big W

    • I agree with this. Best value around.

      • No, I find them too dry. I buy the Little Ones 6x80pk for $10 from Woolies every week (three kids, two still in nappies).

        • They do dry up pretty quick I've found. Have you tried the ones @ Kmart for $8?
