Having outgrown both his peanut sling and Pippalily sling, Baby H needed an upgrade. I did some research online and found the WOMbaby sling. The adjustable rings make it easy to use - I was slinging away as soon as we made our purchase. The all cotton fabric makes the sling a cinch to wash - throw in machine and dont think about it. Getting Baby H (who is a whopping 20 lbs at 5.5 months) into and out of the sling is easy too - having the adjustable rings makes it much easier as opposed to an encircled piece of fabric like our older slings. -

Baby H has very dry skin and had baby acne from birth up to about 3 months. I was advised to try this and though I hesitated at the price tag - thought we would give it a go since we had tried other brands and nothing was working. The cream is a nice consistency and has a pleasant but not overpowering scent. With his sensitive skin the cream seemed to help his baby acne improve over use of about a week. However, once he began to get excema the cream didn't seem to help as much and in fact made his skin a bit redder than normal during his excema flareups. So - for babies with normal (not sensitive) skin, this cream would work well! however you can probably get the same results from a cheaper, drug store brand. -

After scouring high and low for the perfect diaper bag - finally found it online! I had a very specific list of requirements: wipeable, enough pockets (but not too many!), zippered section, adjustable strap length, and of course - great looking. The Marc by Marc Jacobs bag checked off all the right points on my list and then some. In a simple quilted black nylon, the bag has style without being ostentatious. The shoulder straps are quilted for comfort and the longer crossbody strap is adjustable and fits nicely on my stroller handles. The bag came with a wipeable changemat and has 2 inner pockets for bottles as well as two larger pockets perfect for storing change of clothes, spare diapers, mommy's wallet etc. The inside washable fabric is a white/black logo pattern which works well when digging around for that pacifier - you can see everything. Fits everything I need - no need for carrying my own purse. -
