Saturday QOTD

This is my swan song as FMOTW!

anyone find themselves "greening" house, diet, life with the prospect of being pregnant and then having a baby around? what toxic/unhealthy stuff are you cutting out to get ready for LO? what good-for-you new routines are you trying to start.

we make our own non-toxic cleaners from stuff like vinegar, baking soda, vegetable-based dish soap, olive oil, lemon juice, etc. we try to avoid plastic containers, water bottles, and canned good (lined with plastic) that leak BPAs into food. i'm trying to cut out diet soda and artificial sweeteners. i take a multivitamin, and that's a first! we try to eat fresh veggies as often as possible.

I haven't cut out anything yet. I am very nervous with this stuff though. I think about it a lot. I also think about what is in the air and it scares me.

Re: Saturday QOTD

I just bought green kitchen cleaner, no more bleach, and DH isn't happy says it doesn't work, but this is what we'll have to do. I've also been cutting out diet soda, cheated once this week, and when we got married I registered for all glass tupperware like containers, and have been trying not to reheat in plastic. I use the brita, but can not break DH from a plastic water bottle habit.

Re: Saturday QOTD

We have stopped using water bottles but that is bc we are saving $$ but we did try to switch to organic milk,but DH said he didn't like it.

When we are parents, I will make a more conscious effort to go "green" I just think its going to be a big adjustment.
