Consumers can now buy organic diapers. They do contain chemicals. If you want to protect your baby from exposure to these chemicals, organic diapers are available, as are Handi-Wipes. Those, too, however, also contain chemicals that other health experts believe are not in the baby's interest. You can also dust your baby with cornstarch or rice starch.
Some people do have corn allergies, and if that's a problem, experts also recommend rice starch.
Another big issue for a lot of people has to do with perfumes, room deodorizers, car deodorizers, etc. You really need to read the labels. If it's not clear what the fragrance is, then I wouldn't use it. A lot of the fragrances are also tainted with petroleum derivatives. Even the scented candles can pose a problem.
