Grapeseed oil is the most safe for babies... This stuff is pure, chemical free and for sensitive skin... Don't expect any of this from "baby oil" which is mineral oil and chemical fragrance! To answer, yes, you most certainly can use this on infants.

Hi Jennifer I don't see why you wouldn't be able to use the essential oil. You just have to use it sparingly.

Yes, I don't see why not. I've been using this on my baby since he was about 6 months old thou, after many trials and errors with other brand, I find this one most effective at prevent and reducing redness.

I've only used it every other day for a couple months, but so far no problems with a variety of oils- some mixes, including "sweet orange" essential oil. It's basically just a little plastic well with a metal plate at the bottom, so I can't imagine there would be any problems.

Of course! Just remember that you should only keep a 24 hour supply. Some say 48 hours but, why risk it :) Also if your pediatrician approves it I used motherlove more milk special blend it helped my supply a lot since I was exclusively pumping for a preemie who couldn't latch on. It's a lot of work just keep going as long as you can! And pump as often as you can, you should read about power pumping that helped me a lot as well. Also try motherlove nursing cream its great!

I started using it when my baby was two and a half months old, but I'm sure you can start using it when he's one month old

Yes you can! I was using Chicco cortina for my first baby from the very first week he was born. He loved it.

I don't believe 1 month old needs a pillow. At this age babies necks are too short and delicate and pillows may be uncomfortable. I stopped using this pillow when my babies flat spot on his head improved and almost gone.

They say toddlers only because they believe breastfeeding the first year. The formula is fine for young babies and still meets their nutritional needs. Our ped told us it's fine to use. Our baby is 8 weeks old.

Yes, it can be used at any age. It doesn't hurt the baby it just presses on the skin.

Pure essential oils are very potent. I would use 2-3 drops per use. (Fill water to the fill line and add 2-3 drops). Always choose a "therapeutic" grade essential oil. While there is no real "industry" that certifies essential oil potency - ones that are labeled therapeutic are generally pure and are unlikely to have fillers or additives. I use Doterra essential oil, however, they are a little on the expensive side. There are other companies that provide therapeutic grade essential oils. Good luck - my son and his wife love this diffuser and so does their 4 month old daughter. (Lavender oil via diffuser can calm an infant and help them sleep!) Pure essential oils are very potent.

I've relied on it since my little boy was about four weeks old. The baby's body temperature, is pretty stable from the beginning, so age shouldn't be an issue.

No this would be considered a carrier oil for essential oils, for the more potent ones and if you were to use it on animals or small children.

I used with my son when he was about 6 weeks old and he slept good with it. I would say ask your pediatrician if you think it is too early for your baby to use it.

Absolutely! Just mix your essential oil with the carrier oil of your choice such as jojoba, castor, or another. I would probably mix 1 oz carrier oil to 5-7 drops of peppermint oil (adjust as necessary) to stimulate blood flow and promote hair growth. I would suggest using at night because of the lingering scent which will fade by morning.

I think if you can dilute it correctly, you'll be ok. It's a very, very strong oil, so it def needs the correct ratio of carrier oil to this. Plant therapy has a dilution chart here: http://essentialoilblogging.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/plant-therapy-dilution-guide.jpg
