I added a new sidebar store tonight. I have baby on the brain and uploaded some of my favorite things:
A hynobirthing cd set. I couldn’t find the exact cds I have but really I think any set would be a huge help. I listened to them daily in the last trimester of the last few pgs and during the last birth. I would not say it made for a pain free birth but it made for a manageable natural birth with no anxiety.
Earth Mama Angel Baby. Buy anything from them ; ) Elizabeth and MacBeth bought me the pregnancy kit during Brendan’s pg. Everything in it was wonderful. The third trimester tea has raspberry and squaw vine (partridge berry) that I wrote about in a previous post.
A baby sling. A gotta have item for attachment parenting. Great for grocery shopping! I am a small-ish person and can’t manage toting those heavy baby seats all over.
A co-sleeper. If you don’t have a king sized bed this is a great option.
Cloth diapers. I have had kids who were solely cloth diapered and those who were solely disposable and some of both. Personally I only like cloth diapers without elastic. I cannot launder the gathered or all-in-ones effectively. I like the contoured (hour glass) diaper in a regular vinyl pant. Just my two cents.
Burp cloths and bibs. If you are blessed with a munchkin who has reflux this is not optional. Fortunately these are WAY cute nowadays with everything from toile to mod dots.
Diaper bag. A necessary evil. I sorta hated the ones with little ducks or bunnies. I consider it an apparel item. Get one that works with your style <g> My mil got me a nice black bag this time.
Amy Coe. I LOVE Amy Coe’s baby line at Target. The cable knit blankets, the crocheted booties, the bedding. Sigh!
Beatrix Potter and Classic Pooh. Can you be a baby without some awesome vintage pieces? We think not. Hey, this is the fun part folks! Something to make up for the stretch marks. <g>
i love Amy Coe’s line too! But, I have been a long time fan of Flowers by Zoe designer for girls! If you love little girls clothes and baby clothes as much as I do..Have to see this place! Too Cute! http://www.sandboxcouture.com
I like your baby gear list. The new native keeps popping up. I need to take a look at it. We used the Playtex Hip Hammock when we brought our daughter home from China at 8 months. I could still use it if only my 3 year old would cooperate! I love the Hip Hammock and can’t wait to use it again. I noticed you use cloth diapers. You might be interested in this new product-see link below. I hope all is well in your family.
