Default Re: Where to buy bamboo or organic cotton undies? Help!

Thanks for your help.

Washing powder is exactly the same type and quantity as since DD's birth. I think it might be because we always used plain sorbolene on the wipe (no water) at every nappy change, so her skin was far more moisturised than now. I guess the onset of winter here in Canberra has exacerbated it. She did have dry skin-related rash all over her body a couple of months ago and we just can't keep her skin moisturised enought.

I've scoped out the links (and the ones I managed to google myself). Unfortunately the ones that would suit her buddha-belly body shape best (bikini style, rather than full brief) seem to be out of stock in her size at most sites.

I might try a trip to Kmart and Target this weekend. DD has organic cotton singlets from Target, but I hadn't noticed organic undies there before. I also might check out the organic/alternative shop that I know about, but I think they only have baby and adult stuff, not kidswear. Though having just written that, it doesn't seem to make sense, so I must call them to find out.

I hope the bamboo crazy gets bigger and extends to everyday kids' clothes. I managed to get myself bamboo singlets and undies from mainstream brands at Wooolies when doing my grocery shop.

In the meantime, I'll just try and moisturise my DD as much as she will allow.
