Let’s talk baby mobiles. I think for most women when they fantasize about having a baby they can picture the adorable nursery all set up waiting for the little baby to come home and enjoy it. When they fantasize they picture the cute art on the wall, the crib and of course the adorable baby mobile hanging in the crib. I know that was always part of my fantasy.
Today’s post is going to be brief. If you only buy one book when you are having a baby make sure that Baby 411 is it. Baby 411 is a book by the authors of Baby Bargains and written with the help of Pediatrician Ari Brown. This book will pretty much answer any question you have during your baby’s first year of life. I really do not know what I would have done without it when I had my first. I even pulled it out when I had my second and third. I can honestly say this book is terrific and I LOVED it.
A crib tent is basically a large net that you attach to your crib to prevent your child from falling out of the crib or to keep pets from jumping into the crib. They are rather expensive and my opinion is do not waste your money.
Todays parents have three types of crib mattresses to choose from when selecting the mattress for their child. You can go with a foam mattress, an innerspring mattress or an organic crib mattress. Today’s baby thing post will look at the differences and how to select a crib mattress for your baby.
Today’s baby thing is the baby wipes warmer. Now, I will agree that this sounds like a real nice idea, but it is not worth the money.
Today’s baby thing in the ever popular pack and play. I have had a hard time trying to decide if I should recommend this item or not. I will share my experience with it, and they you can decide if you think you would really use this baby thing.
Baby shoes are absolutely adorable. They are so tiny and so cute. I remember before having my first I would look at those little shoes in the stores, and I could not wait to put them on my baby’s feet. However, I never bought them. I did not use them, and they are not a necessary baby thing, at least not until your baby is walking.
The Diaper Pail is exactly what the name says. It is basically a garbage pail made for you to put diapers in. There are a few companies that make them, and each is designed slightly different. There are models that are hands free, some have an easy flip of a handle to get rid of the diaper and some have a lid that you lift up. Many of them have bags or refills that you have to purchase that are designed for that particular diaper pail.
Baby Bouncers are one of the baby items that I do recommend you purchase. They typically do make your life easier. I have found that babies seem to prefer these to the baby swings. I do not know if it is easier for them to see you, but they just seem to like them. All three of my kids really loved their baby bouncers. In fact at one point we had two.
