Dr. Bobby Shampoo is a children's shampoo that is free of dyes and fragrances. It comes in a large bottle holding 9 oz. The bottle has a pump that releases the shampoo in a thick foam. The shampoo lives up to its claims of being a safe, gentle and fun product for children. I like that you only need 2 or 3 pumps worth of the foam. My 2 year old loved the bubbles and the thick lather that it created. Even though it doesn't have dyes or fragrances, it does have a nice. light clean scent. My 2 year old has very sensitive skin and he didn't experience any negative effects from using it. I even used it on my 3 month old and it worked great for him too. I really liked this product and would consider using other products of the same line.

The Sassabies belly wrap is a wardrobe extender for any woman who is pregnant. I got the belly wrap when I was already measuring 36 weeks with a twin pregnancy. So most woman are about ready to give birth with a belly as big as mine. The belly wrap could be used when you are newly pregnant too. If you had a pair of favorite jeans but couldn't button them anymore you could wear the belly wrap as a belt to keep your pants up for the next couple of months. I am using mine because I am between a Medium and a Large in maternity clothes. I love my Medium pants but they are too tight if I pull the waistband to my belly, so instead of pulling these pants up I leave them down around my hips and put on the belly wrap to keep the pants up. If I wear some of the large maternity pants now, they fall down. So the belly wrap comes in handy for keeping the large pants up too.
My favorite belly wrap is the black one with the feet. I wear it with thin shirts and you can see the shadow of the feet through the shirts. I just wish it had two sets of feet since I am pregnant with twins.
Another thing about the belly wrap is that it does have a seam, so if you are sensitive to materials against your belly you probably would be better off using it over your shirt and pants. I hope this helps anyone interested in buying the product.

When I first opened the Moby D Wrap I was a little intimidated for it looked like a big piece of cloth. That was until I opened up the instruction booklet on how to put it on, which was really informative, and had great pictures.
The booklet shows you how to put the wrap on for the different holds for newborns, babies that are 3,4,6,12,17,20 months, for twins, how to nurse, and even exercise with the Moby on. It was so easy to put on. I fell in love with the design, and how comfortable it was to wear. You can even order a small one for your daughter to play with her dolls.
I went to Wal-Mart, and was stopped by a lady who said that she liked the way the Moby looks on me and how comfortable it looks (which I told her it was), and then she asked if one can use the wrap with twins, and I said yes, and showed her how, and she asked where I bought it for she wanted to get one since she had 3 month old twins, and I told her that she can go to MobyWrap.com and order one there or she can look for aretailer near her on their site.

One word can describe the "Bella Bella" Baby Emi Bracelet I received: pretty! From the cute box and ribbon bow (pink and black respectively) to the beautiful Swarovski crystal (clear-colored) beads and mini-pearls the bracelet was beautifully crafted. The bracelet has Ava's name spelled out on Sterling silver blocks and is finished with a lobster clasp shaped like a heart. We tested the 12-18 month size and it fit Ava very well (she is currently 10 months old).
Family and friends found the bracelet adorable. Baby Emi Jewelry is on my "short list" as a gift for our soon-to-arrive niece.
This bracelet will definitely be a part of Ava's outfit for her upcoming 1 year photos!

I am 26 weeks pregnant with twins and have used this product for the last 3 weeks.
I do not notice any new stretch marks, since using this product. I switched from a popular brand, sold at maternity stores to this product because of the texture and smell. The texture is like honey butter, so no hard wax surface to dig into to get the product on your stomach like others. The butter does not have any petroleum, lanolin or parabens. It is an oil based product. I apply it in the morning and evening and have had great luck not itching so much during the day.
I like the smell because it seems very natural and light. I also like being itch free and stretch mark free. I would definitely recommend this to family and friends who are pregnant.

Can we say fun? My son spent a lot of time playing with these by himself, and we had even more fun playing with them together. There were so many different things to keep him distracted that I was excited! His favorite was the green crocodile with the eyeballs that he can shake and the crocodile's tail that makes that crinkly sound that parents are oh-so familiar with. There wasn't any fuss at all when I was opening the package for the first time and I just placed the cards on the floor and Aiden reacted to them immediately. I like the different textures that he had so much fun exploring. I would highly recommend this toy for any kid above 6mo. It was easy for me to get distracted by them as well!

Packaging: Colorful and the clear package it came in also acts as a storage container, so its hard to lose any.

I'll be honest, I wasn't expecting much from these, but I was pleasantly surprised. My 18 month old daughter is teething and as parents, I'm sure we're all aware how awful those "teething poops" can smell. We decided it would be the perfect time to try out Diaper Baggies. And we did put it to the ultimate test. The idea was it would go in the downstairs garbage, but my husband, like most probably, forgot about it and left the bag with the dirty diaper in it, in our playroom! When he reminded me of it the following morning, I was expecting the playroom to be inhabitable, but to my surprise, I couldn't smell the dirty diaper at all.
Diaper Baggies are perfect to keep in the diaper bag, the car or anywhere else you need to change diapers. If you're like me, you've done the diaper change in the back of the car only to realize you don't have any place to throw that diaper away. This is where Diaper Baggies are perfect. You can keep the diaper in the car with you until you can throw it away and you won't have to drive the windows down to escape the smell. And we've all been at a friend's or family's house and not known what to do with that stinky diaper. Put it in this bag and it will be ok to throw in their trash. The bags also have cute designs on them and are an opaque white allowing you to maintain the privacy of it's contents.
Price: $5.49 for a package of 40
Website: www.diaperbaggies.com
Age range: any diaper aged child
Pros: discreet, keeps in odors, convenient, doesn't take up a lot of room, affordable
Cons: none really, possibly having more designs would be nice (currently 2 available)
Ease of Use: extremely easy: open, put in diaper and zipper close
Durability: extremely durable (my toddler got a hold of it and was unable to open or destroy it!)
Would you recommend to friends? yes

This bed has been a lifesaver! My daughter is 4 months old and was diagnosed with colic since birth. She cried all the time and did not sleep well unless being swaddled and held or carried in a front carrier (was not good for my back 8 hours a day). She has four older siblings and I just don't have time to hold her all day and night. I was told about this bed and was willing to give it a try to get my daughter and myself a few hours of sleep.
It took about 2 days for her to get used to, but after that she she started sleeping 6 hours at night. She would wake once to nurse and go right back to sleep for another 4 hours. She takes two 3-hour naps during the day. It has been amazing. She is a happy baby now. She enjoys laying in the bed while she is awake also. I really do think it gives her the feeling of being in the womb. My 2 year old has even enjoyed laying in the bed occasionally. (Can be used up to 40lbs.)
The Amby has a bar that you can easily hang toys from for the baby to look at and play with. It was very easy to assemble and disassemble. It took maybe 20 minutes. Includes 2 sheets for the mattress and
Snugglers to prevent rolling for infants. It is also a great space saver as it doesn't take up the space a crib would. A Jump Jump is also available that attaches to the frame which I intend on purchasing since I do not have a space to hang a regular Johnny Jumper.
This bed is absolutely fabulous. I would highly recommend it for everyone, especially if your baby has sleep problems or colic.
Thank You Amby!

This cream says it can be used to treat and prevent diaper rash as well as heal other minor cuts and scrapes. The first thing I noticed when I tried this product was how easy it was to get out of the jar and apply to the skin. It is not thick or sticky at all and just glided right on my daughter's bottom. It worked great at preventing diaper rash, and really seem to last from one diaper change to another. I would much prefer to use this over a typical thick diaper rash ointment that can be hard to apply to the skin. It did have a slight scent to it, similar to baby Vicks, but it wasn't something that would keep me from using it in the future.

Having just had my second baby, my home and diaper bags are filled with numerous brands of skin soothing products. I'm always needing the one thing I can't find, and keeping up with different products for different situations can be impossible. That has all changed for good, now that I have found The Stick.
My entire family uses The Stick, and we absolutely love it. My 3 month old has eczema on his face, and The Stick has been perfect to help soothe his chapped skin without making it messy and greasy. My three year old has a horrible habit of peeling the skin off of his lips when they start getting dry. I wasn't able to find anything to help keep the lips moisturized and soft so that they could heal until I started using The Stick. I have been using The Stick on my lips, and I am amazed at how long the product actually stays on. It doesn't wear off like normal lip balms, and I am able to eat and drink without it coming off! My husband has horribly dry cuticles, and we have started using it to help soothe and heal that area as well. There is nothing that I wouldn't try The Stick on, because everything we've used it for so far has worked wonders for us!

Ease of Use: It is super easy to use, and there is no mess involved.
Packaging: It comes in a large stick, and I think it looks really cute.
