This post and giveaway were made possible by iConnect and Dreft. I was compensated for my participation in this campaign, but all opinions are 100% mine.
Dr. Hess is the medical director of Gramercy Pediatrics & New York Magazine 'Top Doctor' and she wants to share some great information with you about the gentle and hypoallergenic baby laundry detergent, Dreft, as well as offer you some helpful tips on how to ensure baby is protected and comfortable outdoors during these awesome, but allergy-agitant Spring-weather months. You can RSVP to that party here: bit.ly/1RMCLle, and be sure to tell your friends. The more the merrier for this one!
When it comes to laundry, nothing says 'baby' more than Dreft. Every mom I know gets googly over the scent it leaves on their little one's laundry, myself included. But there's more to Dreft than that which meets the eye (or nose, if you will). Dreft Laundry Detergent for Babies is also Hypoallergenic and gentle on baby's sweet, sensitive skin.
We recently tried Active Baby for the one-year-old in our family, and prepared a surprise bundle that included the Dreft Newborn in a gift package we put together for an upcoming 'welcome home, baby' visit we are about to make.
In that gift package, we also added some of these absolutely amazing Dreft Blissfuls, in-wash scent boosters, and a sweet Snuggle Blanket from Brooklyn Bamboo. The Blissfuls smell every bit as wonderful as the detergent, and the blanket is the softest of the soft. Anything with Bamboo Rayon is always so pleasant to the touch, so I know that blankie is going to be a welcome surprise.
The welcome home party we will be attending for the new sweet baby is going to be held outdoors. The baby is just a couple of weeks old, so it is very important for her parents to make sure she's well protected while she is out of the house.
Dr. Dyan Hes suggests for all babies under 6-months-old, that certain precautions be taken. One of those suggestions is to keep baby out of direct sunlight, and dress him or her in protective clothing, including a brim hat and sunglasses. Another tip: protecting their skin with light-weight material is necessary too. Choosing the right fabric is important, and caring for it is as well. According to Dr. Hes, "When it comes to fabrics, it's extremely important to seek out gentle and hypoallergenic items to care for the items that touch baby's sensitive skin. It's also essential that fabrics be cared for properly. Wash baby's items with a specially-formulated product such as Dreft, the #1 baby laundry detergent choice of pediatricians, to be gentle and hypoallergenic on baby's skin. Trusted for over 80 years, Dreft comes with a babyhood scent beloved by moms, and it remains safe and hypoallergenic for babies."
Those two tips are good for any baby being out and about, but they are especially relevant right now, with the Spring weather being here (hurrah!) and going full force. Don't be afraid to take the little ones out, just take precautions before you do.
Now I have more good news!! I not only have a gift package that I've put together for the sweet new baby in our lives (whom I cannot wait to go visit) but I also have a giveaway for you!! One lucky winner is going to get a super soft Brooklyn Bamboo Snuggle Blanket and Dreft Hypoallergenic Baby Laundry Detergent Gift Pack! US entrants only!
And unrelated to the giveaway, but still important: don't forget to RSVP for the Twitter Party mentioned at the beginning of this post. :)

ReplyDeleteI don't have my own kid yet so definitely have little use for this~ But I've learnt about how babies are much more susceptible to chemicals, so this is definitely good if it is hypoallergenic~

ReplyDeleteThis would also be great for those us like my family that has Allergies. It's not just for baby's so glad to see this giveaway.
