I can't stand lurking any more - too big a mouth :-)
Gina, I'm with you. I wondered how long before someone else would bring up the petrochemical issue. For years now we've not been using mineral oil/baby oil, etc., because they are petrochemical products, and were found to be absorbed through the baby's skin. I don't see much difference here, and probably more risk.
