Does anyone know of these?

Ive read a few places how you shouldnt use talcum powder on babies any more, because is causes breathing problems

I was told not to use it on baby girls as it is linked to fertility problems

Who knows these days!!

LOL I love it.

I guess if you are squirting powder around like a maniac it could cause all sorts of problems...

Yeah I heard that it can get "up there" and into the uterus etc. But I still use it even now after her shower to make sure everywhere is dry. I have a sheepskin pad thing that I put it on then wipe it over her so not squirting directly onto her.

I had heard that it is easy for the powder to get into their lungs and that as long as you put it on carefully it is ok - never heard the infertility thing but it certainly doesnt get anywhere near 'up-there' lolol
