How many moms remember those uncomfortable times back when your sweet baby needed some liquid refreshment, but you really needed a little more privacy to be able to whip it out?  It can be a little bit of an issue.  Back in the day we used a receiving blanked rigged into a bra strap…not the most secure method.  It was always so much more fun too when the blanket got yanked down in the middle of a nice dinner out with friends, or in the waiting room at the doctor’s office, or…I digress.  

Peeky Boo Baby has developed a blanket that functions as a great nursing cover and more!  We wanted to let you know about it since it is so unique!  It functions as a fabulous nursing cover by concealing a very effective little weight in one corner that keeps the blanket hung securely over your shoulder.  It still keeps things loose around your baby though so it is very comfortable and non-confining.  They also offer burp cloths and bibs to match, and a gorgeous array of colors and fabrics to choose from!  

On top of a great nursing cover (which is enough in itself!), the Peeky Boo Baby Breastfeeding Blanket also functions incredibly as a cozy swaddling blanket, a great changing pad, a fun play mat, and a stroller or portable carrier cover for stay-put protection from the elements.  

The Peeky Boo Baby Breastfeeding Blanket is a fantastically versatile product, and one that you are sure to get lots of use out of.  Every new mother should have a few!  Check out www.peekyboobaby.com for more product information and a list of retailers including Lone Star Baby who sells them at only $39.94 - about a 20% savings!!

Don’t forget to enter our GreenBaby contest below to win their Feeding Sampler Gift set, including $50 at Green Baby!

Be free to be green!  It seems that everyone is doing it these days.  It’s not only fashionable, but it really is something that we can all feel good about.  It’s Earth Day and there’s no day like today!

When it comes to our kiddos though, it sheds an entirely new light on going green.  We all want the very best of everything for our children, but when it comes to products that unknowingly pose a hazard, there is just no question.   With all of the recent toy recalls and now this issue with the phthalates and bisphenol-A in the plastic that even the so-called ‘best’ bottles are made of, you can’t help but be extra cautious.  Thank heavens for products that we can feel good about and at the same time not feel style deprived!  

We recently found a fantastic new store called GreenBaby.  They carry a wonderful selection of the hippest products out there.  The best thing is that every single item that they sell is 100% green and something that you can feel good about giving to your little one.

We are giving one lucky reader some fabulous Earth Day Swag!  GreenBaby’s Feeding Sampler Gift Set (retail $90) is the perfect gift for any new mom.  

Gift Set includes: 1 - green to grow 5 oz regular 1 - green to grow 5 oz wide 1 - Adiri Stage I natural nurser 1 - ThinkBaby 5 oz bottle 1- $50 GreenBaby gift certificate

So you get 4 different bottles that are 100% phthalates and bisphenol-A free, are super safe and also super cute!! You will also get a $50 gift certificate to GreenBaby so that after testing and finding the perfect bottle to fit your little baby bear’s preferences, you can stock up!

To enter, visit www.greenbaby-nyc.com and check out their incredible selection of all things green baby!  

Then, leave us a comment telling us what you would use the $50 gift certificate to purchase if you win!  You have until midnight PST Sunday, April 27th to enter.  Winner will be chosen via the random.org random selection tool and announced on Monday, April 28th.  Good luck and Happy Earth Day!

How many new mothers struggle with getting enough sleep due to the fact that their new little bundle won’t?  It is an age old problem, and any new product claiming to help is at least worth a try, right? 

We recently found the Sound Sleep for Babies CD that we believe to be the next big thing that new moms can’t live without.  Anyone remember the Boppy?  Okay, well this is slotted in line to be the next MUST HAVE on every girl’s registry!!  

According to Sound Science, the creators of the CD, “The secret is a phenomenon called the WombEffect™, which takes recordings from the womb combined with mother’s rested heartbeat, and digitally processes them with special technology to mimic how it sounded underwater to the prenatal baby.  The results are phenomenal. Babies instantly recognize the most peaceful, comfortable and safe place, the womb, calming their fears and putting them to sleep fast.” 

It makes sense, has won a ton of awards internationally, and at only $19.95 you just can’t lose!  Give the gift of sleep!  Click HERE for more info on where to buy.  Wishing sweet dreams to moms, dads and babies everywhere!

We recently got the chance to try out the super chic M1 Carrier from Lascal - a very innovative Swedish line of high quality children’s products. It is by far the most comfortable carrier on the market for both mother and baby and has so many other great features! It is naturally antibacterial due to its Bamboo fabric components (yayee!!!), and the Bamboo fabric top cover removes in a snap for easy cleaning and also functions as a canopy against sun and wind!!! So, go-go Gadget Baby Carrier!

What do we absolutely love about the M1 ? We love the gadgety “double click” and lock buttons that you can trust to hold your little sweetie snug and secure. Once you hear the second click, you know you’re good to go. We love the lightweight and very breathable high-tech ventilated fabric that it is made of so much too! This is a MUST for hotter climates. It is also so sporty that daddy will love wearing it - BIG plus - let’s give mom a break guys!

Again, we love the fact that the Bamboo Fabric parts (colored) are naturally antibacterial! That alone gets it two big thumbs up from us for being safe for baby, and clean! It’s almost like it cleans itself (okay, not really), but it is easily machine washable, and actually comes out still looking new - much unlike the first carrier that I bought from a competitor that actually cost the same. It comes out of the wash like an absolute champ!

We also love that you get very effective lumbar back support without having to don that “first carrier” that resembled more of a heavy-lifting brace. Not all that flattering in our opinion, and yes, I do plan on allowing the M1 to help me to move on from that “first carrier” experience:)!

We simply have to have “it all”, and this is it! It is also so comfortable to wear… it’s like it just hugs your body! It supports your back very well, and this is coming from someone with a back problem. We really love this one, and of course that is why we are bringing it to you as one of our Favorite Things !

The M1 retails for $129.99 and comes in 5 sporty colors. You can also buy additional top covers to rotate or change colors of you like! If you would like more information, please visit the Lascal or Regal+Lager websites, www.lascal.se or www.regallager.com . The M1 can also be purchased at Target.com and RightStart.com as well as many other stores that can be found on the Regal+Lager website.
