When I had my first baby, I remember her pediatrician specifically stating that although it was best to have baby on her back for sleeping, it was just as important to lay her on her side to prevent flat head syndrome. Being that babies heads are so soft during birth, it is not uncommon to develop flat spots from laying down in certain positions too long. To prevent flat head syndrome, which is so common, 1 out of every 2 babies develop it, the ...

Moving on up with Bumbo! (Booster Seat #Giveaway)
My little girls are growing up too quickly and while they both love being independent, sometimes they need some help. When it comes time for meals, they gather around the table and kneel on their seats to reach, but even my 19 month old won't entertain a high chair at this point. Getting them to sit safely at the table is near impossible, but when they laid their eyes on the Bumbo booster seat I received for review, they actually fought over it. ...
Fun, Cute, and Cozy with #HALOSleepSack at Pottery Barn!
Both my daughters wore HALO SleepSacks from the very beginning. When the weather started to get cooler following the birth of my first daughter, I needed a way to safely keep her warm. Blankets were out of the question because I was afraid she would end up moving and having the blanket over her face. Once I discovered HALO SleepSacks, there was no going back. They were exactly what I was looking for and came in various sizes and levels of warmth ...
Keep Your Infant Happy in the @BabyEinstein Musical Motions Activity Jumper! #DivasJump
My nephew is just a few months old but he is ready to play with the big kids! Once he was fully alert, he would reach out to his older siblings and cousins while they all happily walked, ran, and skipped throughout the house. Now that he has full head control and can sit on his own, it was time to make play time a bit easier and much more fun for him. We received the Baby Einstein Musical Motions Activity Jumper for review. Once it was put ...
aden+anais Introduces Their Organic Line!
When your baby is born you want to wrap them in the best, most comfortable fabrics you can find. I remember the first thing to touch my daughters' skin was the stiff hospital receiving blankets. I couldn't wait to get them home and wrap them in softer blankets. The thick, flannel-like blankets were all I knew but everything changed when I discovered aden+anais soft muslin receiving blankets. The first aden + anais product we owned was the bamboo ...
The New Taggies Bedding Collection is a Hoot!
My little girls are getting a room makeover and theme change. When I had my first daughter, I kept the theme neutral in her room because I wasn't sure if I would have more than one child sharing a room. Now my oldest is showing preferences for certain characters and styles, but my little one is still a baby - so I get to choose a style for her! I've thought about various themes, and the two that stuck out the most were butterflies and owls. I've ...
Keep An Eye on Your Child With Dropcam
When my first daughter was born, I had to go back to work when she was only 8 weeks old. Whether you have children or not, you know that an 8 week old is still very vulnerable to a lot of things - their heads are still wobbly, they need constant attention and proper care. If I didn't trust the nanny I hired to care for her, then there was no way that I would have ever left my daughter with her. But as a new mom I still had my doubts about anyone ...
Growing Up With The Britax Pinnacle 90
My little girl is growing up so quick! I can't believe she is entering pre-k... Time goes by so quick when you are having fun. I remember when I was pregnant with her, looking into every safety report and ratings sites to see what the best and safest baby gear was. Everything, including her high chair, crib mattress, swing, and car seat were thoroughly researched. When it came to her convertible car seat, it was a no brainier- she was getting a ...
