Organic Bedding with Greenbuds

Earlier this year before Matea was born, my husband and I made a conscious decision to start living a healthier life in regards to the products we use every day.  We started reading labels, switched to organic cooking ingredients, and made sure to use natural cleaning products around the house whenever possible.  With two little girls to look after, we wanted to limit all the toxic chemicals we were using and putting in our bodies each day.  However,  I honestly didn’t even consider switching to organic bedding until Matea was born.

Unfortunately, both of my girls suffer from eczema, but in Matea’s case, her skin is so much more sensitive than her big sisters.  In addition to recently changing her bath products and detergent, I’ve had to make sure her bedding and clothing are soft and breathable so she doesn’t break out.

Considering how much time she will be spending in her crib, I started researching some bedding options and decided organic was the way to go for the girls.  Greenbuds carries a line of mattresses and bedding that are 100% organic and free of any pesticides and chemicals that other traditional mattresses are full of. They use a combination of coconut, natural latex, cotton and wool material to make their products which are all produced in the US. How awesome is that, right?

Since Matea is still sleeping in our bedroom at night, I got the Abstract Affection Crib Comforter so she can use it in any room.  It is the perfect size for her crib and even Marli has tried to “borrow” it a few times for her toddler bed.  During naptime, we’ve used it as a blanket, but when Matea is awake, I’ve used it as a mat on our bed for her tummy time and rolling exercises.

​I’m pretty sure she loves it because she’s always trying put it in her mouth or lick the blanket…and I’m a-ok with that because it’s made from GOTS certified organic cotton and pure eco wool fill – no yucky stuff to worry about!  It’s also 100% breathable and hypoallergenic (A MUST!) because of her eczema and sensitive skin, but what I really love about it is how it’s temperature regulated.  If you live in Houston, then I know you can relate because our temperature changes daily!  This comforter will keep her cool during those hot and humid nights, but also warm during cooler weather.

In addition to their mattresses and bedding, I’ve also been eyeing their adorable pillows and sheets for Marli’s room. I think she would love this Super Hero one.
