MILITARY~MOMMY`s poll Show results | Hide results


Other-poll poll Given the Choice (assuming equal pricing) would you pick a natural item versus something with more chemicals than you can pronounce? (refering to diaper rash ointments, shampoos, teething aids, ect.)
(Other poll by MILITARY~MOMMY, 894 days ago)
I would chose Natural products
I would go with the more "Ordinary" brands
It would depend on which product

i like her too!! just bc someone has different opinions than you is no reason to ask for them to be kicked off......ha if that were true im sure i would be gone by now as i am not mainstream and do things differently than a lot of people do

Problem is they are RARELY equal in pricing. If they are, it usually involves coupons or something similar, which many people don`t care to do/ have time to do.

well they say u shudnt use ointments, creams, bath soap etc...with chemicals or perfumes in untill ur baby is 6 months as their skin cnt handle it, 1st time mum so not sure if this is over the top or wot but i will def stay chemical free for the 1st couple of months at least i think.

i use natural, and if we can afford it, anybody can. its just a matter of priorities and giving up other things in order to afford whats most important to you. same goes for staying home. yea, we live in an apartment instead of our own house, we dont eat out very often, we dont take vacations, neither of us has a new car (both of ours have a lot of miles, but are paid off!) in order for me to stay home and also for us to use healthy products. i dont work and my bf delivers pizza!!! so, like i said, if we can do it anyone can. some people just dont want to give certain things up...

Uh, who wouldn`t pick natural?! You and your CHILD`S health is the most important thing in the world.

Lou~ I agree with you on diaper creams, soaps, teething tablets, we also use cloth diapers and make our own wipes solution for cloth wipes. BUT I have never found an all natural conditioner that works! Any sugestions?

I definitely go for the natural stuff over the chemical stuff. To me it is money wasted if I were to buy the ordinary stuff. I buy from the Health shop and use things sparingly (i.e. shampoo, conditioner, baby creams etc)... We just don`t waste things and I find they are well worth the money and smell and feel better.

unfortunately chemically-laden products are always cheaper...

Maybe I should have put more widely available instead of ordinary, but I hope you know what I meant!

  1. Thanks to my twin`s ability to trek down here, my records are straightened out! I will be having my first appointment on February 29th. I will be 10 weeks-ish. Around here that is about when they want to see you. When did you get your first appointment?
  2. What do you think is better (or worse) for kids? TV or video games?
  3. I`m interesed in getting an innotab for my kids. Are the extra downloads pricey? How is the product as a whole?
  4. Thought they were fixing the problem with the profiles? Mine is now starting to disappear and most of my friends profiles are gone. Is it getting fixed or what because its more than a joke at the moment. Maybe its the ads causing the problems because its the only thing that seems to stay when the profiles disappear.
  5. If you had a `favourable` cervix (started to dilate and soft) did a membrane sweep work for you?
  6. Should I buy my sister a Belly Bandit for her shower? She said that is what she wanted when I asked. I just have a hard time spending that much money on some thing she might niot like. Especially because it was me who put the dumb :) idea in her head!! I bought and used one for three out of my four and loved it...but is it for everyone? Or should I throw down the money to something more practical?
  7. Are your children exposed to two hours or less of TV per day? (This includes when your shows are on and they are awake and around at the same time in the same room)


  8. Just finished making a birthday cake for the first time from our baby girl for her daddys bday tomorrow :o)
  9. Extension of last Valentine question..I should clarify that we are having V-day dinner tomorrow alone but still just the fact that he bought our gifts at the same time at the same place bugs the s-it out of me. He knows I like plants and I`m pretty sure he went to a nice nursey and got me one but the fact is he told me he got his mom a small little plant. OMG I fee like I total b-tch but I feel like telling him I know what he probably got me and I do not want anything that you are giving your mom!! But then he wopuld know I snooped and saw where he went on our checking account.
  10. O.k I know this is a off the wall question..Is it weird and selfish of me to be annoyed that my husband has is giving his mom a Vanetine gift and card tonight when she comes over and wants to give me mine too today? I know I`m probably being sensitive and I feel bad that I made the comment `if you give me the same thing as your mom I`m gonna cry`. He said I should`nt ruin the surprise and I told him I was sorry but I just wanted our Valentines seperate because everything includes his family and it`s a day for lovers. Am I....
