off white bamboo wrap by sugar sweet baby

I’ve been seeking the perfect new wrap for our baby-to-be, but just couldn’t decide what was the best choice. That changed when I discovered this great wrap from Sugar Sweet Baby.  The attractive pink print caught my attention, but when I discovered that the wrap is made from bamboo fabric, I was completely sold.  If you haven’t experienced this super-silky fabric, you are in for a treat.  Not only does it feel absolutely luxurious to the touch, but it has the perfect amount of stretch, which makes it ideal for babywearing.

The website provides detailed instructions for using the wrap.  Although it looks complicated at first, it is very easy to get the hang of, and because of the design, you have complete control over the fit.  Lack of adjustability was my biggest complaint against my last baby carrier, so this one is perfect for me.

You can purchase this wrap on sale for $65 at sugarsweetbaby.com.  The company ships quickly and packages everything beautifully, so this wrap would make a great gift.

Hand Embroidered Serena & Lily Market Sling

When I saw this Serena & Lily Market Sling online I didn’t know why I liked it so much. As I read the description I found that it is made from 100% Organic Cotton.  Organic Cotton just seems to have a more natural and earthy look. It’s also hand embroidered with a “super soft” interior.  I think it’s important that the sling has a seamless design (which reduces irritation on both mom and baby’s skin) and no buckles or straps.

The sling is machine washable in cold water and line dryable. You might have to just touch it up a bit with a warm iron, if necessary. The product description says that the sling size is more about torso length than height. Here’s a tip from Serena & Lily: Measure your hip-shoulder circumference using a measuring tape. Put the measuring tape over one shoulder, and join the ends together on the opposite hip, about 1″ above your hip bone, like a beauty pageant sash.

Available sizes fit Small (under 5′3″, under size 6) and Medium (5′4″-5′6″, sizes 6-10). This naturally attractive and comfortable Sling is priced at $129.00 at BellyDanceBaby.com.

Oopa Baby Sling

Gwen Stefani and Tori Spelling are the proud owners of stylish slings from Oopa Baby.  The styling of the sling allows you to assert your fashion sense while keeping your child close at all times.  I love the ultra-modern black and white floral print. The sling is crafted from super-soft Italian pique fabric.  It closes with black rings, and features a zippered pocket that is perfect for keeping small items handy while you are out and about with your little one.

Each Oopa Baby sling is made by hand, so you are guaranteed a well-made and unique product.  The sling can accommodate a toddler up to 35 pounds, and can be easily machine-washed.  You can purchase one for $138 at duematernity.com.

Hoohobbers Infant Rocker Etoile

The Hoohobbers Infant Rocker Etoile is very pretty. It is available in a variety of prints and colors. What I like about this rocker is that it is light enough and portable enough to take along on visits to family and friends. Not everyone’s home is baby-ready.  With this Hoohobbers Infant Rocker you can set up your baby’s “area” and she’ll be safe and secure and happily bouncing. Baby can sit with the adults and be the center of attention while mom still has some mobility.

This rocker features a sling that cradles baby naturally like a mother’s arms. The baby’s own motion creates a smooth, gentle motion that is supposed to be more soothing than regular bouncer. The rocker also has a full, removable hood that protects baby from harsh light and wind, indoors and out. There are colorful, spinning characters on the removable toy bar that will engage your baby. Another neat feature is the rocker’s turn-down feet which can adjust amount of rocking, or stop it completely.

The Hoohobbers Infant Rocker is made of a solid polypropylene frame sling that measures 14″Wx24″D. All of its fabrics are 100% cotton and machine washable. You can also personalize the rocker with embroidery.

You can purchase this unique rocker for $78 at  maddiescloset.com.

Itzy Ritzy Bubble Dot Pink & Pink Minky Reversible Infant Car Seat Cover by Couture

It’s like getting two for the price of one with these reversible car seat covers. The full name of this car seat cover is: Cuter Than A Duck’s Butt/Itzy Ritzy Bubble Dot Pink & Pink Minky Infant Car Seat Covers by Comfy Couture (try and say that three times fast). The pattern side is a bright, cheerful print with an unusual design. Your baby is going to love touching the reverse side with its Pink Bubble Dots. Two for the price of one, pleasing to the eye and the touch, and machine washable. This looks (and feels) like a good deal.

Each car seat cover is designed to fit most infant carrier car seats. They fit over the seat’s original cover, thereby not jeopardizing the integrity of the manufacturer’s original equipment in the seat. They also come with a replacement hood that uses the manufacturer’s original equipment.

All this can be yours for $118 at  UltimateBabyBoutique.com.

Baby B’Air Flight Vest

Over 90% of all injuries on commercial airlines occur during flight, yet children held in parents’ laps are unrestrained. The Baby B’Air Flight Vest has been tested to exceed FAA stress tests levels for aircraft seats.

It’s not comfortable to think about, but for parents who must air travel with their infants or toddlers, it is something you must be prepared for. Your child will be restrained while wearing the Flight Vest; however, it is designed to be comfortable and easy to wear allowing the child to be held, fed and changed while in the garment. Just think of it like a child front carrier that allows you to “bond” with your child.

The Baby B’Air comes in two size options: Toddler (6mos-2years) or Infant (6 weeks-6mos). You can purchase one for $29.95 at OneStepAhead.com.
