Finally I have my hands free to accomplish tasks duriong the day! My son loves being cuddled and loves being in his Moby wrap.
I got a very good deal on this by picking up a $28 re-packaged clearance once on a cross-border shopping trip. In Canada they seem to be hard to find (at least for me in a smaller city). They are easily ordered online though. Usually for around $62. A lot for a big stretchy peice of fabric but that seems to be around what slings/warps cost up here. I would say for the price try to find a deal or a used one.
at first I was intimidated by the complex looking instructions but don't be. One time and I can do it from memory. Baby fits securely and comfortably and it is easy on your back and shoulders. The fabric is really long so it always touches the ground. That is the one draw back not good for doing up outside the home. I just put it on before I go out and slip him in once I arrive at my destination.
My baby gives it two thumbs up :)

My son had mild eczema on his face and pediatrician recommended Aveeno. So we bought this product and so glad we did. It cleared up his Eczema almost immediately. We keep using it to keep it from coming back.
Love that it is natural like the other Aveeno products and I can use it on his little face. No strong scents to worry about. A little goes a long way so this should last us a long time making the price a good value.
Definately worth a try if your little one suffers from Eczema. Not sure how effective it would be for a more serious case as my son's was mild.

Love this shampoo! I don't normally splurge on expensive salon brands but this one may have changed that.
I first tried it when staying at the Vdara in Las Vegas as they use this as their toilettries. I loved the smell of it! It made me feel invigorated.
Now smell alone is definately not the most important part of a shampoo (although it can't smell bad!). This shampoo cleans my hair wonderfully and leaves it so soft. Now I have super oily hair and have trouble finding shampoo that cleans it and doesn't leave build up. I am sure it works great for normal hair too. I simply only use the conditioner every other day for my hair. Although this is a very nice light conditioner that goes with the shampoo.
Overall I love the awesome soapy lather I get each morning waking up with this great smelling shampoo.
Note: The price I paid was for the large size

I bought the Medela Swing breast pump when I was pregnant with my son. I was able to get it on sale for 50% off and have not seen it so cheap ever again. This was a great price but I rated the price as average as I have not ever seen it that cheap again and usually it is pretty costly ($170-$200).
This has turned out to be a life saver for me. My son was a preemie and after having bottles in the nursery I could never get him to breastfeed. I want him to have breast milk so I exclusively pump. Therefore this pump has a lot of mileage on it!!
The pump is electric so effcient without the mannual effort (a must for a mom who pumps frequently). If I had the money I would love a double pump but this is honestly the best single out there. It is super portable which helps me accomplish my daily tasks without being tied to the pump considering how often I use it. Love that it can be pluged in or run on batteries. I pumped many times in the car on long road trips :).
Super compact and comes with a travel bag and some milk storage containers/bottles. Note the bottles don't work for my son as they cause too much gas but I use them as the milk storage containers.
Love this pump!

I have tried a lot of diapers as I have a newborn. He was a preemie and in the nursery they used Pampers Swaddlers. Once he was home they sseemed to be giving him diaper rash. These diapers elliviated that probelm. That is main reason for recommending them.
Fit - He is still newborn size and not rolling over or crawling so I can't speak to those stages but these fit nicely and do not leak when we use them now. He can have some pretty messy diapers so I am impressed with that. Tabs stick nicely.
Price - These are reasonable. Papmers are usually cheaper in comparison to Huggies. I also find that they go on sale frequently and have lots of coupons available.
Sesame Street characters are super cute.
Gifts to Grow rewards program is an added bonus. I do however find their website glitchy compared to the Huggies one.
Overall these are my diapers of choice for my son at this stage.
