Guest guest Posted January 24, 2004 Report Share Posted January 24, 2004 Hello: I am researching items that can cause toxicity to antimony and arsenic and other metals. Tonight on a list that deals with this it was mentioned several times that Graco baby products are treated with these substances as a flame retardant. The Graco pack and play was sited in particular. Does anyone have confirmation of this. Graco has confirmed it according to these posters... I plan to call and ask for it in writing to confirm. I'm interested to know about their strollers and bouncy seats that virtually everyone uses. Thanks for any info that you you might have. I'll post the reply I get from the manufacturers I contact if anyone is interested. I know that crib mattresses and some pajamas are one culprit but am learning that there are many more things out there that our babies have used for months at a time.. hours a day. Thanks again.. have a blessed week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may also find it somewhat less daunting if you work on the metals your child is toxic with, first. I'm not saying it is okay to be around any of them, but narrowing your focus to the stuff that is KNOWN to be a problem for your child makes it a little bit shorter list. http://home.earthlink.net/~moriam/HOW_TO_hair_test.html Moria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 Thanks Moria as always for your links and " homework " . I actually have done hair test from Doctor's Data and it is those toxic metals that I am working on eliminating the souces for now. I want to see if there are any souces I may have inadvertently missed. Thanks again.. I had forgotten you had this on your site.
