You’ll need Dr. Bronner’s Castile Soap, 2 tablespoons oil of your choice, and 1 tablespoon of pure organic aloe vera gel or Vitamin E oil for added moisture to whip up this homemade recipe. You can also add your favorite essential oil, such as lavender for its calming effect. However, if you choose to add essential oil better use a glass container for storage because plastic will break down eventually. Also, consult your doctor first, because not all essential oils are safe for infants and toddlers.

6. Homemade Coconut Oil Baby Lotion

When my children were just babies, whenever they suffered from dry skin, all I had to do is apply a generous amount of raw coconut oil on the affected area. Coconut oil is nothing but amazing! It is antifungal, antibacterial, anti inflammatory, and is very good in moisturizing, too. Couldn’t be easier!

 

7. Homemade Natural Baby Wipes

Natural, homemade baby wipes are easy, safe, and frugal! To make your own wipes, using non-toxic ingredients simply mix together 4 cups water, 1 tablespoon almond oil, 2 drops tea tree oil, 2 tablespoons castile soap, and 5 drops lavender oil. Then, pour your mixture onto a pile of clean wash cloths and store them in a container with a lid.

 

8. Homemade Salve for Nursing Mothers

I thoroughly remember this amazing recipe! It was a lifesaver when my first child was born. My nipples became really sore and cracked and I just went to my kitchen for the remedy. Simply combine 1 part coconut oil and roughly 2 parts shea butter or mango butter in a glass jar or pitcher. Set in a pan half filled with water, until melted together, then pour into containers.

 

9. Homemade Oatmeal Baby Bath

Whirl 1 cup of oats in a blender or food processor until they are reduced to powder. Sprinkle powder into bath water to give your baby a fresh bath with oatmeal goodness. Oatmeal is very good even for the most sensitive skin. Its anti-inflammatory qualities help relieve redness and irritation.

 

10. Homemade Diaper Pail Deodorizer

Mix 1 cup of white vinegar with two gallons of water. Fill diaper pail and rinse after 30 minutes to neutralize the odors and keep your house smelling good always. Perfect for your growing baby!

 

Babies are totally adorable and nothing compares to them! Let us have some fun with this funny baby video from funnyplox:

Making your own homemade baby products is ideal in all aspects. You get to save money, and most importantly, you are in control of what exactly touches your baby’s body. However, be careful with storage and always label it with dates because just like any other natural product, homemade baby products has its own shelf life. When the product starts to have a strange odor, discontinue usage and make a new one. I hope these recipes will find its way into your home and don’t forget to share them with your friends, especially to those who are expecting a baby.
