Welcome
Becoming a parent, grandparent, uncle or aunt is one of the most exciting events in any life. A baby brings with it a sense of awe and a newfound passion for living right. For many of us at Abe’s, the journey to a more natural lifestyle began when our bumps (or our wives’ bumps) began to protrude. And with the arrival of our bundles came a new commitment to making healthier, safer choices. This transition involves a few compromises as well as many profound benefits, including peace of mind and confidence. We’re not only making sound choices for our own homes, but also shaping a more sustainable environment for future generations. To that end, this magazine marks our own birth: We’re beyond thrilled to announce the launch of our new baby registry. Whether you’re pregnant or adopting or your best friend is about to give birth, we’ve filled the following pages with our favorite baby must-haves for you—from nursery design to diapering to feeding to bedtime. We even have ideas for dad and curated picks for grandparents. So browse, register, shop. And feel free to join our conversation about all things natural—baby and beyond—on Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest. We’re kind of obsessed…. - The Abe’s Team 6

You’ve had nine months to wrap your head around the fact that your actions – what you eat, how much sleep you get, and so on – affect someone else. This continues – intensely – when your baby is born. While your baby nuzzles skin-on-skin and teethes on your fingers, it’s a good idea to pay attention to what you put on your skin. Things like conventional perfumes, deodorants, and creams can contain chemicals that you won’t want around your bundle. Thankfully there are natural, safer versions.

Mayron’s Goods, Baby Goods have been developed by director, writer, and Emmy-award winning actress Melanie Mayron (best known for her role as “Melissa” on the critically appraised TV show “thirtysomething”), and her chemist father David; Mayron’s Baby Goods is a cruelty-free, all natural skin care line that does not use synthetic fragrances, paraben, sodium lauryl sulfate, or DEA. Mayron likes to joke that her cruelty- free products have never been tested on animals and instead, “only on actresses’ babies,” many of whom she has worked with personally over the years.

Healthy Child Healthy Wo The 5 Easy Steps People always ask us how they can make their home healthier and safer without spending a lot of money. Healthy Child Healthy World created the 5 Easy Steps to help expecting, new and seasoned parents to take simple steps each day to reduce toxic chemical exposures. We believe that no on can do everything, but everyone can do something! Here are our top tips, one for each of the 5 Easy Steps.

3 Avoid Pesticides
Clean Up Indoor Ai
Take your shoes off at the door and wash your hands after playing outdoors. You’ll reduce the pesticides and lead brought into your home, not to mention dirt! Traces of pesticide residues can cling to the bottoms of your shoes and then rub off on your carpet and rugs. Once there, they linger on because they’re not exposed to the conditions that typically cause them to break down (sunlight, rain, soil microbes, etc). These residues become sources of repeated exposures to children and pets who play on the floor.

The easiest way to eat healthier is to start making your food instead of buying prepared food and warming it. Buying whole foods reduces your exposure to the many synthetic additives found in processed foods. If you are a novice chef, the idea of preparing your own foods from scratch can seem daunting and too time consuming. However once you start doing it, you’ll see how easy (and cheaper) cooking at home really is. Also, involving your children in the process will foster healthy habits. Kids are more likely to eat new foods if they are involved in choosing, buying, and preparing.

Be Wise With Plastics
FOR PAPA GRANDMA

SLEEPING
Buy and store food in glass, ceramic or stainless steel containers. The easiest and cheapest way to make this switch is by re-using spaghetti sauce and salsa jars. If using plastic storage containers, make sure hot food items have cooled before placing them in the container. And keep in mind that fatty and acidic foods promote leaching, so you may want to, at the very least, choose glass for those types of foods. When reheating food in the microwave, transfer food to a ceramic or glass dish first (even if the plastic container says it’s microwave- safe). Chemicals added to plastics are absorbed by human bodies. Some of these compounds have been found to alter hormones or have other potential human health effects. More than 50 known or suspected endocrine disrupters currently are legally used in food packaging materials.

CEO and founder Rebecca Peragine firmly believes that teaching children the importance of global responsibility at a young age means carrying that responsibility into the future will be second nature for them. Tell us a bit about your family. I’m married to a lovely Italian named Gianluca and have two boys, Giovanni and Matteo. We’ve been a bit of a gypsy family—beginning in Mexico, then relocating to the Midwest, then to the Arizona desert, and most recently Southern California. We’re thinking we’re going to stay. For now.
Number Poster, Children Inspire Design, $24.00
Upon becoming a mom how did your lifestyle change? Your home? Well, having our first child brought us back to the states. We were living on an island off the Mexican Caribbean, but felt we were too far from family. So we moved to Wisconsin to be closer to my folks. That was our first big change (after the actual birth of our firstborn). It was a really big change.

Your advice to first time moms? Clear your schedules! I thought—admittedly with both Pregnancies—that the baby would come, I’d be super productive, and able to continue working in some capacity. I didn’t ask for help and I should have. If loved ones offer, say yes! Favorite thing about newborns? Snuggling, naps, watching my little one change every day. Something I wish I did is take a picture of my baby every day for the first year. My sister is currently doing this and it is so awesome to watch her little one, Willow, grow through photos. And what an amazing gift to give your child down the road!

At Home with Oogaa Just one year ago, Oogaa saw the first prototypes of its signature silicone spoons. The decision to use silicone, a non-toxic material, came amid growing concern from parents about the impact of chemicals in children’s everyday products.
We know that some plastics and melamine can leach small amounts of their chemical components if heated or even if the surfaces are damaged or scratched. And what have people replaced BPA with? This information is alarming! The spoon prototypes were beyond our expectations—soft, flexible, durable, and made from a high-grade silicone that withstands extreme heat and cold and will not leach chemicals into your child’s growing body. We realized that the tools you use to feed your child can be just as important as what you feed your child. Oogaa spoons are not only safe but also fun. Mealtime can be stressful, sure, but it can also be a time to laugh, sing, make funny faces and noises, teach or simply talk to your baby. The idea of the shaped spoons came from my husband feeding our son. He would dramatize the airplane and train noises—very realistically might I add. I Loved watching my son’s face as he focused on the spoon— so seriously—as it flew around over his daddy’s head, finally making a soft yummy landing with big smiles all around. We have one chance to make good choices for babies; they grow so quickly. If we can provide them with safe, nonleaching, sustainable, and fun products... that’s a good choice.

1 I started paying attention to my pesticide exposure. It wasn’t just about me anymore. Numerous studies have linked pesticide exposure during pregnancy to lasting health effects on the developing fetus. We don’t know for sure that everyday exposure is a problem, but I tried to minimize it during my pregnancy and continue to be careful since I am now breastfeeding and my daughter is eating veggies, too. I don’t buy everything organic, but I pay attention to the Environmental Working Group’s Dirty Dozen list of foods with the highest pesticide residues. We also try to purchase most of our produce through a local CSA or farmer’s market. I don’t mind if these farms aren’t certified organic, but I like to be able to look a farmer in the eye while bouncing my precious offspring on my hip and ask, “what are the spraying practices on your farm?”

We sit down to meals as a family whenever we can. No TV, no phone – just us and good food and conversation. I don’t know if it makes a difference to an 11-month-old, but my hope is that my daughter will remember that dinner together was a priority in our house.

I’m doing my best to model healthy eating habits for my child. The funny thing is, I don’t think I can credit all my nutrition training for this. Instead, I think this is something that I learned from my own mother. Our eating habits are formed from those earliest experiences with food. Having a baby reminded me of this, and I’m working to give her a solid foundation for a lifetime of good eating.

ORGANIC COTTON According to the Sustainable Cotton Project, conventional cotton farming uses about 25 percent of the world’s insecticides and more than 10 percent of the pesticides. The pesticides used on cotton happen to be among the world’s worst: five of the nine most commonly used have been identified as possible human carcinogens. Others are known to damage the nervous system and are suspected of disrupting the body’s hormonal system— of particular concern with growing bodies. Babies have thin skin, developing systems, and are generally more vulnerable than adults. Wrapping that skin in organic cotton just feels right.

At Home with Dapple Watching a baby put everything in her mouth and crawl around on the floor will have you reaching for a natural cleaner!
It was 3 a.m. and I was at the sink, washing and rewashing my baby daughter’s bottles to no avail. I couldn’t get rid of the soapy suds, so I knew my dish liquid wasn’t as safe as it should be – and it was no match for the lingering odor and residue that breast milk and formula left behind. Dapple was born out of the need for cleaning products that are natural and safe around our babies, and are also effective for the unique messes that only babies can make. Put simply: We understand baby messes. And we know how stressed out they can make you as a new parent! 122

M Y R E G I S T RY
So here are our tips to help you get your home ready for baby by greening your cleaning routine before your little bundle arrives:
1 Cleaning products…as a baby gift? It may seem like an odd gift to get, but remember: your baby registry is not just about getting adorable things for baby – it’s also about getting practical items you’ll need with baby around. So go ahead, get clicking and make sure you’ve got baby-safe dish liquid, toy cleaner, laundry detergent, and more on your registry list. When choosing products, look beyond the eco-friendly labels, and into what’s really in each product. Steer clear of cleaners that contain synthetic dyes and fragrances since they can be irritating for babies, and of course, avoid all the stuff you hear about like parabens, SLES, phthalates, and BPA.
2 Take inventory…of your cleaning closet: As you get every room in the house ready for baby, it’s important to clean green from top to bottom. But not everyone has the time to make their own natural cleaners – so start with the products you already have, and figure out what can stay and what needs to go. Visit www.healthychild.org for a list of chemicals commonly found in cleaners and other products. It offers helpful guidelines on what to look for, and what to stay away from. When in doubt – leave it out!

Go room by room:
PLAYING
Today it’s easy to find safe, green cleaning products for every room in the house – especially as rooms not even designated for baby start to get overrun with toys, bouncy seats, and more. Make it easy to keep things clean by keeping cleaning products handy (but still out of reach of children!) in different zones of your home – those toy wipes are great in the nursery but would also be terrific next to the stroller in the garage, or by the high chair in the kitchen; place a bottle of dish liquid next to every sink in the house (you never know when you’ll need to clean a bottle fast); stock the laundry room with detergent; and more. Don’t forget to buy travel sizes for the diaper bag and for trips to Grandma’s house!

Why organic? There are numerous claims about the amount of chemicals needed to make a conventional cotton product. What we do know for certain is that all those chemicals eventually weaken the soil, end up in our streams and waterways and have costs far beyond the price of the original fertilizer or pesticide. At Breganwood Organics, bleaching and dying is outsourced to factories who use low impact dyes and have effective water treatment systems in place. All of their products contain 100% certified organic cotton. Better for our environment, better for your family. Designed to delight!

The Primrose Organic Crib Mattress is designed with your child’s health, safety, and comfort in mind. The mattress cover consists of organic cotton, and is quilted with 100% pure organic wool, which is removable, washable, and interchangeable. The wool acts as a natural water barrier, as well as a fire block, which are only some of its natural advantages. The inner mattress core consists of 3” of the purest, all natural coconut coir, providing a very firm support layer for infants. Wool also helps regulate temperature & contributes to improved circulation. The mattress’s coconut coir also contains properties that are a natural deterrent to bed bugs and dust dites.
A complete Organic Line for your baby’s nursery!
Greenbuds Toddler Pillow is the purest, most comfy little pillow for a sleepy toddler’s head to rest on. Composed of 100% organic cotton, a zippered cover, and 100% pure organic wool fill. The wool is first encased in a thinner cotton cover, allowing the top cover to be removed and washed. The pillow is designed to the perfect size and height to enhance comfort and promote spinal development.
Organic wool and cotton serve as the perfect sleeping surfaces for any infant. It wicks away excess moisture, keeping the sleeping environment clean and healthy. 158
