is fleece toxic to babies??

My 6 month old sleeps in fleece sleep sacks and wears a lot of fleece clothes.  I know it's made from plastic, so I'm starting to wonder if this is a bad idea as I try to limit her exposure to plastic in other areas.  Anyone know of any research on this or can you recommend warm winter clothes/sleepers that aren't made of fleece?  Thanks

    You might like the lovely wool at Nova Naturals.  Or you could just do cotton--that's what we do.  Depends on how warm you need everything to be!

    I only use cotton and wool for DS. If I have to use a fleece/polyester sleeper, I try to layer cotton under it. I avoided it completely when he was an infant. I felt like it didn't allow his skin to breathe at all.
