Mommy Monday: Bebe au Lait Nursing Covers


Such a great idea for nursing mommies! The Bebe au Lait Nursing Cover makes it easy to nurse while being covered and still be able to see baby. This would be a great product to have in the hospital with all the visitors.

Item details (from Bebe a Lait):

100% Cotton
Terrycloth pocket detail for quick cleanup or storage of breast pads or pacifiers.
Machine Washable
Unique rigid neckline allows for ventilation, as well as direct eye contact with the baby.
Generous sizing keeps mommy completely covered during breastfeeding
Multi-use: Can be used as a nursing cover, a blanket, or even a sunshade to protect baby’s fragile skin from harmful UV rays.

These are two of my favorite bottle drying racks for style and function. The Flower Garden Drying Rack at Sparkability, and SkipHop's Splash Drying Rack.

BPA Free Product List

BPA (Bisphenol A) is a hot topic these days, especially in baby products. Though I do not believe all that is Wikipedia, I do think this is a good explanation of BPA.

I have put together a list of Brands that offer BPA Free Bottles and or Sippy Cups. Just remember to read the fine print, and know that some brands offer only a few BPA Free products, while others have all BPA Free products. I hope this helps in the frustrating search for safe baby products.
For a quick reference check out Babies R Us, babystyle, Target and Walmart. They provide a BPA free product search on their websites. Go to feeding and you should see the BPA Free link.

Happy Shopping!

Mommy Monday: BellaBand


The BellaBand by Ingrid & Isabel was a staple in my maternity wardrobe. It helped give a little more support and was great for those months when regular pants would not button and maternity pants were too big. The band is made of nylon/spandex. click here to see how to wear it.

Personalized Birthday plates + cups






These personalized birthday plates and cups from Red Envelope are so sweet. Chose from three designs (Bird, Fish, or Cupcake). Each piece is hand-painted. It would be fun to bring this special birthday plate and cup out each year.

Mommy Monday: Japanese Weekend Maternity




In honor of my dear expecting friend, I am dedicating Mondays to all things Mommy!

Comfort is key, especially after baby arrives. I found Japanese Weekend Maternity to be a perfect fit for comfort and style. The "during and after" line is perfect for the transition to nursing mommy. The "hug" nursing bra was by far my best buy for nursing.

Five Little Monkeys

Finding this book today really took me back. My brother and I loved the story of the Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed, by Eileen Christelow. This classic story ultimately teaches counting.
Uncommon Goods sells the book with a cute plush play set.
