Limit exposures.: Instead of focusing on what cannot be used. change the idea into items than CAN be used. Soaps for skin: IVORY, DOVE. Laundry Detergents: Dreft. Use these for the items the child comes in contact with; and always remember that they come into cntact with bedclothes, and your clothes as well.

Many: I usually tell parents, if it smells good, don't use it! Avoid perfumes, soaps, or any product with dyes. Dove scent free is fine. Cetaphil cleanser is fine. Also babies don't really need to be bathed every day, every other day or even every three days is fine. Enjoy your baby!
