DALLAS, Sept. 28, 1998 -- Because inhalation of traditional
baby
powder is a threat to your baby's health, a dustless baby powder is a
better
alternative, according to Kathy Calabria of Patty Cake Inc. which makes a
dustless baby powder.
"Accidental inhalation often occurs when the baby handles or plays with the powder container since it is shaped like a baby bottle. Incidental inhalation of small amounts of powder during regular diaper changes can also affect an infant's lungs," says Calabria. A safe alternative is Patty Cake Dustless Baby Powder(TM). It is available in stores nationwide. "Symptoms of powder inhalation can include coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, vomiting and fever," Calabria says. "Acute bronchitis and pneumonia can result." Patty Cake(TM) protects baby's lungs because it is a pressed powder applied with disposable applicators from a convenient travel sized compact. The mess and waste of conventional powders is also eliminated, says Calabria. The compact is designed for convenient storage of extra applicators to use away from home. Patty Cake applies evenly for consistent protection, helps prevent diaper rash, moisturizes and lubricates to prevent dryness and is hypo-allergenic for sensitive skin, Calabria says. Ask your pediatrician if Patty Cake is right for your family. Patty Cake can be purchased at drug stores and other fine retailers. To find a store near you, call toll free 888-793-7229.
