SugarSNAP Files: Best Way To Get Your Diaper Bag Organized! Review, Discount and Giveaway US/Can (10/7)

Thank you SugarSNAP for providing me with a product to review, free of charge, and for sponsoring this giveaway. These are my own honest opinions. There used to be a time where all I had to worry about when leaving the house was to make sure I was wearing (matching) shoes, had my keys and wallet. That worry-free era ended when my daughter was born. All of a sudden, I had to make sure I had a million things with me from diapers and wipes to toys and bibs, blanket and snacks, the list goes on Read more [...]

Naturepedic Organic Quilted Mattress Pad Review & Crib Mattress Giveaway

*I was sent a Naturepedic mattress pad in exchange for this post. All opinions are my own. Several years ago I read some statistics about how much weight a mattress gains in 10 years time due to sweat, dead skins cells, etc ending up in the mattress itself.

BABYBJÖRN Baby Carrier One Review & Giveaway (US & Canada) 9/28

Thank you Bébé Au Lait for providing me with products to review, free of charge. These are my own honest opinions. Breastfeeding has been a part of my life for a little over 20 months with my daughter. She is now weaned but I'm about to start another breastfeeding adventure with Baby no.2. I never considered breastfeeding an obstacle that prevented me from doing whatever I wanted. I breastfed anywhere: at restaurants, at the park, at the mall, even in planes! I was never really shy about Read more [...]

Naturepedic Lightweight Organic Cotton Ultra 2-Stage Crib/Toddler Mattress Review & Giveaway (US & Canada) 9/28

I never used to give much thought to the mattress we use on our crib and toddler bed.  However, I just attended my first Bump Club Gear-A-Palooza last month and I learned a lot from Jamie Grayson, TheBabyGuyNYC.  He made the point that many parents will spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on the crib and then buy a cheap or used mattress to put in it.  The fact of the matter is, though, your child's face and body are laying directly on that mattress.  The materials that a mattress is made Read more [...]
