FDA Warning about Mommy’s Bliss Nipple Cream

On May 23rd, the FDA warned women to discontinue use of Mommy's Bliss Nipple Cream. The cream, promoted to nursing mothers to help soothe dry or cracked nipples, contains ingredients such as chlorphenesin and phenoxyethanol that may cause respiratory distress, vomiting and diarrhea in infants.

We, at Happy Bambino, are committed to selling products without harmful chemicals. We carefully research the products we carry and have never knowingly stocked items containing lead, Bisphenol-A, PVC, or phthalates.

We highly recommend Motherlove’s Nipple Cream. It is the ONLY nipple cream USDA Certified Organic. We’ve found it’s great on sore, cracked nursing nipples. It helps to quickly soften and heal skin and relieve pain. It also serves as an excellent diaper rash ointment. All ingredients are safe for ingestion, so it does not need to be washed off prior to nursing. Motherlove’s Nipple Cream does not contain lanolin (which can contain pesticides) or Vitamin E, which should not be ingested by infants.

If you have any questions about nipple creams or sore, cracked nursing nipples, please feel free to ask our retail staff or stop by our Nursing Mamas Resource Station Tuesdays and Fridays 1:00-4:30 p.m.

Bisphenol-A Advisory

Are you concerned about Bisphenol-A and other chemicals found in children's items? HB Co-owner, Alison Dodge, was recently interviewed on Fox 47 News. To read the interview summary, click here.

Have you been pumping and storing using Medela products? Rest assured, Medela bottles are BPA free and always have been. To learn more about BPA, click here.

We at Happy Bambino know there are a lot of things to worry about as a parent. Although you don't want to give your kids something that's bad for them, alternative options can be pricey and it’s worth it to do a little research before throwing all of your old products out.

Happy Bambino stocks a variety of BPA-free products, including Medela Breastmilk bottles, Nuture Pure glass bottles, Dr. Brown’s glass bottles and our ever-so-cute Sigg aluminum bottles in both child and adult sizes. Stop by the store and speak with one of our sales staff. We are committed to the health and well-being of your family and will be happy to answer questions or discuss any concerns you have.
