The hospital where I will be delivering has a warning/newsletter up on their website addressing harmful phthalates. In looking at the information, it appears phthalates are found in many products, but is especially harmful to babies. Lotion, shampoo, powder, etc. all is absorbed into the baby's skin. Phtalates can enter the baby through these and plastic toys he or she chews on. One thing it also talks about is carpeting - thank goodness we have genuine wood floors!
Anyway, just keep your eye out for this nasty chemical.
