What is the Ideal Pregnancy Weight Gain?

The notion of ‘eating quantity for two’ is outlandish and long discarded. You don’t have to eat for two adults. It’s a tiny little bud of life in your tummy and not a big fat elephant in the room.

Is your baby sleeping on a ‘standard’ cot or bassinet mattress?

Many Australian parents don’t realise how many toxic chemicals can be hidden in standard mattresses, and the concerning effect these may have on your baby’s health. We make natural, low-tox and sustainable mattresses for all members of the family.

Most ‘standard’ children's mattresses are made from polyurethane foam and a combination of synthetic materials like polyester and nylon. There have been many studies conducted into the toxicity of these materials and the negative health effects that have been linked to them, from being carcinogenic, causing endocrine disruption, and even leading to breathing difficulties. The Natural Bedding Company cot and bassinet mattresses are thoughtfully designed and handcrafted from purely natural materials. The organic and natural components used in the mattress’ construction creates a natural sleeping environment that is extremely low in VOCs and free of harmful toxins or synthetics. Every mattress is tested to comply with the AS/NZS Voluntary Standard for firmness to ensure your child can sleep safely and comfortably. Our team is available Monday to Saturday between 10am-4pm to answer any questions you may have, 1300 991 255.

Incy Interiors was founded in 2011 by Mum and interiors enthusiast, Kristy Withers. The business transpired from an opportunity Kristy saw after an unexpectedly difficult search for her son Oscar’s first ‘big boy bed’. This merger of a frustrated but extremely ambitious mother saw the birth of Incy and with that, the launch of high quality designer kids furniture in Australia.
