Baby Gear

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>

  1. 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.
