Product Description

Network magazine, April 2000
"The ultimate guide for parents of youngish children. If you are lucky you can start with pre-conception and go through the breatsfeeding stage but you can always pick up later. The organic products guide is comprehensive, including as it does, baby foods, baby gear, family gear, household products and recommendations for a 'green home'. Highly recommended for organic families." --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

Families South West, March 2000
"A book for the seriously organically-minded-to-be. Go for it!!" --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

3.0 out of 5 stars Useful fact-nuggets among the bile-syrup, 1 Aug 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Organic Baby Book : How to plan and raise a healthy child: The Essential Guide to Raising the Healthiest Infant of the New Millennium (Paperback)
If you are buying a book with a title like this, you will probably already be quite sold on the idea of an 'organic' lifestyle. Unfortunately too much of this book is spent trying to resell the concept. At a time of one's life when you are already very overburdened with advice from all sides a lot of this book comes over as sanctimonious scaremongering which most new parents could do without. Being a new parent (or even an expectant new parent) is a trying enough time without being told that, unless you throw away all your carpets, bedding and food and use only unbleached, unprocessed cotton throughout your life then you are endangering your health and that of your baby (as well as contributing to global recession and unemployment). Having said all this, I gave the book 3 Stars. I AM already sold on the concept of organic life and wanted practical, simple advice on the products which are available and how I can obtain them. The more matter-of-fact chapters in this book succeed here, but I suspect that there are web sites which do so better. This book is a useful resource, it is also a good example of how to (and therefore not to ) write an organic lifestyle book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well researched and a wealth of information, 2 Mar 2000
By helen_eyre@hotmail.com (St Albans, Hertfordshire) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Organic Baby Book : How to plan and raise a healthy child: The Essential Guide to Raising the Healthiest Infant of the New Millennium (Paperback)
Being 6 months pregnant with my first child, and already having an interest in eating organic food, I thought that I'd give this book a try and see what it offered. It is brilliant - it takes you beyond just organic food and introduces you to a whole range of household items that may have an impact upon your child. It also raises important issues such as vaccinations with a very balanced perspective. The author provides her point of view but always urges you to find out as much information as you can so that you can make up your own mind. The second part of the book assists with this by providing a comprehensive guide to UK suppliers - I'm currently researching the real nappies available out there having read about the toxic gels and environmental impact of disposables. At last someone has compiled a comrehensive UK guide to assist parents in making the best informed choises for their children!

THE ORGANIC BABY BOOK
by Maxted-Frost, Tanyia
£7.95 / $16.29 / 11.34


"For first-time parents it offers a useful antidote to the more conventional baby care bibles. It also has an excellent directory which will make shopping for organic products from bed linen to organic food suppliers much easier." -Earth Matters

When originally published in 1999, The Organic Baby Book was the first popular guide to going organic for conceiving and raising a healthy child, and the first to review all organic products for babies, pregnant and breastfeeding mothers and young families. This second edition is updated with many new products, home delivery companies and useful websites. It is divided into two sections: Part One features general advice on going organic for a healthy baby and includes:

- the experiences of parents who have gone organic and reaped the rewards
- how to -green- your house for your baby
- the vaccination versus healthy immune system debate. Part Two reviews over 750 organic and environmentally-friendly products, companies, relevant organisations, annual events, websites, and useful resources for mother and baby including
- fresh organic wholefoods
- organic cotton reusable nappies (from 22 companies)
- readymade babyfoods (14 brands)
- cot blankets
- bras and nursing pads
- baby clothing
- bodycare (over 40 brands)
- food supplements
- bedding.

Tanyia Maxted-Frost has been heavily involved in the organic food scene since 1996. She co-founded the London Organic Food Forum, created and was Editor of Organic Food News UK.
