Sckoon Organics Now Offers Certified Organic Breastfeeding Pads For Under $10

Dec. 3, 2010 - PRLog -- Sckoon’s Chemical-Free Pads Help Moms Protect Their Children’s Health Plus Benefit Mother Nature


      New York-- Sckoon Organics has created a new niche for reusable organic breastfeeding/nursery pads. Sckoon Organics, a leading wholesaler/retailer of organic baby apparel, has launched breastfeeding pads made of 100% certified organic cotton. The unique Demeter-certified pads come with a matching print carrying pouch and a laundry bag.

   The soft and absorbent organic cotton pads are made of layers of certified organic cotton fleece, plus organic cotton poplin. They protect sensitive skin and keep breasts warm to help lactation. These breastfeeding pads have no seams touching the nipple area, so there is no irritation to the mother’s or baby’s skin. Sckoon products are picked by hand and spun without the use of any chemicals.

      Sckoon’s Breastfeeding Pads are available in seven different colors/design patterns. Beautiful prints are also certified organic cotton dyed with metal-free, environmentally friendly dyes. As an added bonus, Sckoon’s Breastfeeding pads come with a matching print carrying pouch.


      “People don’t buy baby clothes or cloth pads just because they are organic” Satoko Asai, the owner and designer of Sckoon Organics says. “It has to be fun, colorful, and stylish.”

      Busy new moms love the fact that the 100% Certified Organic Cotton pads are reusable and can be laundered in washers/dryers on moderate temperatures. The laundry bag comes with breastfeeding pads make it even easier.

Breastfeeding is also believed to reduce tooth decay and children who were breastfed are less prone to allergies, diabetes and other serious childhood illnesses.

   Breastfeeding also is reported to help mothers by allowing the uterus retain its normal size and restore blood lost at the time of delivery. It also helps in preventing excess weight gain and maintaining normal menstrual cycles. Breastfeeding regulates the hormone level after pregnancy and the recent study found that breastfeeding reduces the risk of type 2 diabetes of mothers into a half.

   And breastfeeding helps Mother Nature too! Moms who breastfeed use far less plastic bottles and so they help reduce environmental pollution.
