Are you looking to switch up some things in your life to leave the world a bit greener? Here are some things you can consider to help create less waste 1. Cloth Diapers This is the Cotton Babies blog, so, of course, we have to mention cloth diapers! Using cloth diapers instead of disposable diapers can prevent 1 ton of trash going to the landfill per baby! Remember, cloth diapers don’t have to be all or nothing.

How to Get a Free Breast Pump from Insurance
October 12, 2018 8:00 am | by
Follow these steps to get your free breast pump that is covered by health insurance under the Affordable Care Act.

Under the Affordable Care Act, health insurance plans in the United States must provide breastfeeding support, counseling and equipment for the duration of breastfeeding. That means that insurance will cover the cost of a breast pump for new moms; either a new one to keep or a rental unit. This applies to all plans with the exception of grandfathered plans. So, how do you get your free breast pump? Call your insurance company. There should be a phone number on your insurance card. Give it a call and tell them you need to find out how to get your free breast pump.

Babies at Work: Retail Store Edition
July 11, 2018 8:03 am | by

One of the unique benefits of working at Cotton Babies is that we welcome babies at work. You’ve all seen the blog from the lovely Julia about bringing her son, Tommy, to work with her at the corporate offices for Cotton Babies. (If you haven’t, read it here and the update here…) There’s a whole other side to bringing babies to work that differs from the office spaces that are Cotton Babies: the retail store. I was lucky enough to be able to quit my full-time job to work part-time, and, added bonus, bring my little one to work with me!

Lottie Life Nursing Apparel for Active Moms

Lottie Life nursing apparel for active moms.

Wardrobe Challenges As a mom who has breastfed 2 kids, I can attest that finding great nursing apparel can be a struggle. Sure, you can do the two-shirt method where you wear a nursing tank under a regular shirt and pull up the regular shirt to nurse. The tank keeps your tummy covered. Or you can continue wearing maternity clothes, which isn’t always great for your self-esteem. When I have found actual nursing pieces I like, I’ve been known to buy in several colors. If it works, I have no problem investing in great pieces because I know I am

Three Cheers for Great Dads this Father’s Day

Happy Father's Day to all the great Dads!

I know a lot of moms use online forums to complain about the fathers of their children and their shortcomings, especially on Father’s Day. This is not one of those posts. While I, at times, get annoyed by my significant other, surely he feels the same about me and my neuroses. This post is about my favorite qualities in my husband as a father to our kids. I think these traits are universally good traits for Dads to possess. He always makes them smile. Whether it’s funny voices, actively playing or just being silly, it warms my heart when I

Are You a Crunchy Mom?

Are you a crunchy mom?

“Crunchy moms” are all about natural living. You might have a little bit of “crunch” in your parenting style if you do any of the following things. A lot of crunchy traits are things other moms mainstream moms might roll their eyes at. And for the record – that’s a-okay! Every mom makes different choices and we respect them all as long as baby is safe. You do you and what works for your family. You Might Be Crunchy If… Cloth Diapers Caring about the environment is considered crunchy to some. Of course, at Cotton Babies, we think families who
