HonestBaby T's

Keep track of when you last nursed and which side you nursed from with this must-have product for all new mothers. The Nursing Bracelet is made with high-quality glass beads and components for safe and lasting use.  New-born babies should feed every two to three hours, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics.

The Nursing Bracelet™ is a simple and attractive solution to this problem, with several functions that will help new mothers keep track of their babies' feeds and establish a good milk supply.
 

The Nursing Bracelet can be used in many ways:

• To keep track of which breast your baby last fed from: with one easy action, simply move the bracelet from wrist to wrist

• To record what time your baby last fed, OR

• To mark when your baby should next feed, OR

• To simply record the total number of feeds in any single day or night.

The Nursing Bracelet has many additional and alternative uses, extra, contrasting charms are available for twins.  Or use an extra charm to:

• Count your baby's wet or dirty diapers in a day

• Count glasses of water you've drunk in a day

• Remember when to take/give medication

• Count number of laps you've walked/run

• Remember an appointment time

Weekly Giveaway - Plush Pad by Ah Goo Baby

The Cozy Wedge
that we featured last week and gave away to Carolyn is 10% off this week (until Thursday night).


ALSO, through the month of March...








The Plush Pad by Ah Goo Baby
Old Retail Price: $47.00
New Price: $34.99!

The Plush Pad® by Ah Goo Baby® is the first portable changing station to use memory foam – bringing the comfort of the nursery with you into any room, any place, any time.  Really, all the time.  Many parents also love using this pad for tummy time or for use during their infant/child classes.

Where most portable changing surfaces are made of vinyl and plastic surfaces, The Plush Pad® is fashioned with boutique and ultra-soft fabric selections (approx 450 thread count) that are both water resistant and machine washable. Coupled with the memory foam pillow, it also acts to provide comfort and protection by soothing your baby's pressure points. This design is so novel, it has been issued a U.S. patent.

What makes The Plush Pad® so plush?

The Plush Pad® by Ah Goo Baby® comes with a memory foam pillow that relieves pressure because its structure is completely different. It's made up of billions of high-density, elastic micro-cushions. When the temperature-sensitive cells come in contact with the warm areas of your baby's body, they get softer and pliable. In cooler areas, they stay firm. The cells will literally shift position and reorganize to conform to your baby's tiny contours. The cells shift so your baby doesn't have to. Its molecular structure also efficiently absorbs shock to help protect your baby's head and neck when laying them down for a changing. In short, The Plush Pad® conforms to the curves of your baby's body, so that they can sit back, relax and enjoy the experience!

Weekly Giveaway - Cozy Wedge

Couture Keepsakes by Keepsake Concepts
that we featured last week and gave away to Donna is 10% off this week (until Thursday night).

ALSO, through the month of March...







Cozy Wedge: A Safer, Simpler Crib Bumper
Retail Price: $60.95

CozyWedge bumpers fit snugly around the crib, won't slip down and are easy to remove for sheet changing. They cushion the crib for your baby but they have a safer, firm surface that won't form a pocket around a baby's mouth and nose. The shock-absorbing foam is the same foam used in swimming noodles, and is totally nonabsorbent, CFC-free and odorless. The slipcovers are organic cotton and completely washable.

 

 

Recent research linking crib bumpers to infant suffocation deaths has prompted several major safety organizations, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, First Candle and the CPSC, to recommend against using soft, padded bumpers. But many mothers continue to use these dangerous pads to protect baby from bumps and bruises and to prevent baby's limbs from getting stuck in the slats. Crib bumpers have become a big source of confusion for moms.

CozyWedge is a safer alternative that recently received high safety marks in an independent review by one of the nation's leading juvenile products safety experts. The analyst is a long-time safety engineer for the CPSC who left the agency last year and now work on child safety issues for private clients. He called CozyWedge "an excellent design for the prevention of crib deaths." The report said CozyWedge's design makes it "virtually impossible for re‐breathed air to become trapped within its confines," preventing the buildup of deadly carbon dioxide gas around the baby. CozyWedge also allows for the "free flow of air in and through the crib" to prevent overheating and stale air,  offers "superior visibility" of a sleeping infant and presents a "low or non‐existent potential for mechanical strangulation."  To read more about these studies, click on the links below:

Weekly Giveaway - Bella Band Maternity Accessory by Ingrid & Isabel

The Daypack by My Royal Heinie

that we featured last week and gave away to "Grubmama" is 10% off this week (until Thursday night).

The Bella Band Maternity Accessory by Ingrid & Isabel

Retail Price: $26.00

Newly pregnant?
Pre-pregnancy pants will not fasten around your waist?
Cute maternity fashions a bit big right now?
Or maybe you are further along, but some of those maternity styles are falling down around your hips.

Easy fix.

• The BellaBand is a seamless knit band you wear at your waistline, over your unbuttoned pre-pregnancy pants, over slightly big maternity pants, or around the waistband of any maternity style that falls down around your hips.
  
• The BellaBand holds your pants up, disguising bulky unfastened closures or excessive fabric creating a smooth belly surface. Now, no one has to know your pants are undone or loose.
  
• Wear the BellaBand concealed, or let it peek out from under your top for that hip, layered look. If your top rises, it looks like a t-shirt or camisole -- not a funky mechanism to expand your waistband or hold up your pants.
  
• Wear your non-pregnant girl pants a little longer and those cute maternity fashions a little sooner. Have more clothes to choose from during your pregnancy, enjoy getting dressed every day, and feel confident with how you look. You're pregnant! Have fun! Now go out and play.
  

How do you win?

you needed to transition to maternity clothes.

Who cares what is in skin care products?  I have learned a lot about skin care products from Rosemary, the creator of Love Me Baby Me that has changed the way I buy skin care products.  Once I started realizing how our skin absorbs everything we put on it . . . and did you know that children's skin is 5 times thinner than that of an adult?  As a result, their skin (the largest organ in the entire body) is at much higher a risk for irritation by harsh chemicals found in many skin care products, even by those targeted to children.  To learn more, I invite you to click here to read articles that Rosemary has posted on our blog on this topic, you will come away informed!  I have used the Love Me Baby Me skin care line for my children for the last few years and LOVE IT!  I love knowing that it is safe, it works well and smells great (her new organic line is even better than the original)!

What you can win this week: a sample-size collection of Love Me Baby Me's five amazing products. Each Precious Pak includes a generous 2oz sample of Bubbly Wash, Smoothy Shampoo, Creamy Cream and Hair Putty, with a half ounce jar of the miraculous Butt Balm-the last diaper cream you will ever need!

This week we are giving away 5 Milk Bands Nursing Reminder Bracelets (we will choose 5 winners, one for each color).

Retail Value $7.95 each
 

Milk Bands incorporate many unique features such as a side indicator, which lets the mother know which breast should be used when starting a breast feeding session by simply flipping the Milk Band inside-out once during every nursing session, as well as a time tracking device which can be used for many different purposes including:

• Record single feeding sessions to the nearest 5 minute increment
• Record multiple feeding sessions over a full day period
• Record the number of times the baby fed in one day
• Record the number of diapers a baby soiled during the day
• Reminding the mother what time the baby last fed
• Reminding the mother roughly what time the baby is due for another feeding

Taking a little break. . .

Pinkbench Headbands - Weekly giveaway

Happy Friday!  I hope you are all doing well.  I am feeling very tired lately.  I even took a nap yesterday which is very rare for me.  I am feeling each and every pound I have gained in this pregnancy and think that possibly the scales are hiding the true number because I am feeling so big and awkward. I had a fun little "fall on the floor" in Pizza Hut this last week as I tried to scoot out of my booth before a spilled drink saturated by lap.  I was in a heap on my butt and looking over seeing that hardly a drop of soda was on my bench (guess I should have stayed put).  Then a few days later I was carrying my daughter down some stairs leaving the house of a friend (in the dark) when I miscalculated how many steps there were and fell on my knees (quite thankfully no permanent damage was done and Ashlyn was fine).  So really I am thinking I might do well to just give myself bed rest for a while before I really do some damage!  Only about 5 weeks to go now so there is an end in sight:)!

This week we are giving away a Pinkbench Headband (you choose the style)!  Retail Value $14.99 each

Pinkbench's unique headband is a one-of-a-kind, because it really does what it says: It stays on your head and does not hurt. This patent-pending headband allows you to work or play all day and it actually stays in place. You will forget you even have it on.  I think they are perfect for days you have to quickly pull yourself together or just for something fun to add to an already great style!

I was wearing one just the other day and can say "It works and it stays put!" 

Our giveaway item from last week (the Dose Keeper) is on sale for 10% off for until next week Thursday night.  This is a great product for easily keeping track of when you last administered your child medicine!  Lucky Dee F., Marlena, and Cindi our the 3 winners from last week to get a free Dose Keeper.

Here is how you can win: With my pending delivery I am looking for some ways to try to "gear up" and make things easier after the birth (work-wise).  It occurred to me that you guys must have some wonderful tips to share other moms about something that has worked for you.  We have had lots of "It Worked for Me" posts on our blog but I would love to have some content from you. Not only will it be fun to read but will allow me to schedule out several blog posts so that after the baby comes I don't have to think about posting new content for a while -- a win, win right:)!  So PLEASE share with us something that you do that could be a tip for the rest of us.  To submit your "It Worked for Me" idea, please fill out this survey http://survey.constantcontact.com/survey/a07e29zpyogfexpw5y1/start and share an "It Worked for Me" idea that I could possibly share on our blog. Thank you!  I can't wait to read and share them!  You have until Tuesday the 22nd and 9PM to enter.
