Cloth Diapering

Coconut Oil Question

Where do you buy coconut oil?  Do you use it in place of other diaper/rash creams? 

Also, is there a certain type that is better than others?  I was thinking of ordering some off Amazon since it's convenient.

Re: Coconut Oil Question

  • The cheapest place i've found it is Trader Joes.  But you can get it anywhere that sells natural foods.

  • We have a place called SaveMart.  It's like a drugstore and supplement/vitamin store in one. 

    Amazon is a good source though.

  • Is there a certain kind that's better or is it all pretty much the same?  Does it matter if it's the regular vs. extra virgin?

  • I bought virgin based on a post here I believe. And you can get it at Trader Joes or even Fred Meyer/Kroger.

  • I just bought it from my grocery store.  I think the extra virgin still smells like coconut while the other one doesn't -
    If the house ain't burned down and the baby's fed it was a successful day. Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker
  • You can get a fairly large jar of it at Whole Foods, 365 brand, for under $5.
