Mott's Fruitsations +Fibre Unsweetened Tropical
We were asked to review two flavours. We preferr d the raspberry. I wasn't as much of a fan of the tropical flavour. I still love the idea of having fibre in a snack my kids enjoy though! I would buy the raspberry over tropical though.

Mott's Fruitsations +Fibre Unsweetened Raspberry
Apple sauce is one of my kids favourite snacks. I'm always looking for ways to add fibre to their diets and this is such a simple way to do that. They both enjoyed the raspberry flavour. I would buy this againz

Again most mom groups I'm apart of rave about how "amazing" Kirkland wipes are.... I think they are in denial. I was told they compare exactly to Huggies (apparently same company?) and wow whoever decided that most have been drunk.
They are THIN I have to fold it to get the thickness of Huggies. Not to mention the annoying delivery system! God I hate the package it comes in! It's loud and it's hard to pull the wipes put at first. Then when you DO get the wipe out it's all stretched and is skinny but long.... It's so weird!
I do find them better than pampers wipes. But do not compare to Huggies. I'm using the rest if my box as face wipes. Not suitable for big poops!

Kirkland Disposable Diapers

Well, as a deal hunter and new mom I was looking for the best bang for my buck and do many moms rave and rave about Kirkland diapers. I'm shocked.
I bought my son a box when they were on sale. I thought they were soft and liked the "jungle theme" he wore them a few times and they seemed fine bit every morning he would wake up SOAKING WET and I'd have to strip his crib and replace his sheets every day. That's A LOT of laundry.
So after asking around I found they were terrible for overnight and went back to my Huggies for bed. I continued to use the Kirkland diapers for day time use and thought they were working fine. But I kept smelling pee everywhere we went! I thought maybe my dogs peed on something. Well today I realized no, it is the Kirkland diapers! One tiny pee and it's all you can smell. Ugh I'm less than impressed. I suppose they do their "job" and contain pee and poop for a minute until you can change your baby. But not worth the money to me.
If you just wait for a Huggies sale and combine a coupon they work out to the same price and frankly the insurance of no leaks us worth the extra pennies I might spend! Also when you take into consideration the points on Huggies you aren't "saving" much.
I don't recommend these (or the wipes) but that's a different review.

Huggies Overnites Diapers

My son is a VERY heavy wetter. We have struggled for 11 months to get him to sleep through the night! He is a constant every 3-4 hours up to nurse. We stopped changing him every time because it would wake him up to much and he wouldn't go back to sleep....not so cute at 3am. But the problem we were having is he would eventually soak through his diapers and wake up anyway because he was wet, and no-doubt uncomfortable. Then a friend gave me a bag of Huggies overnights that her son had outgrown, and I am obsessed with these diapers now! My son wakes up dry EVERY SINGLE MORNING, and wouldn't you know it he has started to sleep through the night! My sanity thanks Huggies! -

What a great product. I recieved a coupon for these in a gft bag from Similac and tried them out. They are great during pregnancy when you feel ravenous AAAAALLLLLLLL the time! It was a staple for me during the morning (all day) sickness, to stay feeling full, without binging on poutine. I brought a pack with me to the hospital, which was great as it was a very set schedule for food, and I was there for 3 days after my c-section, so it was nice having a small snack in between meals. Then during the newborn stages when I was finding it difficult to balance life, eating, sleeping, and baby, these were often a go to when I didn't have the time to feed myself. I felt like I was eating a balanced diet without having to put much thought into it. The only thing I do notice is sometimes the vanilla ones have a metallic taste, and they taste awful if not refrigerated. -

One of my favourite grocery staples. I would love them even more if the price wasn't so expensive. They are a great on the go snack for myself as a busy mommy running around on a daily basis. I used these a lot right out of the hospital from my c-section. It was hard eating well with no sleep, and a baby that ate constantly. So these were a great way to stay full quickly. I also like keeping a box in my car, for long outings so I don't get tempted with fast food! I love the cranberry orange! YUM -

I have never been a brand snob, and that was especiall true with laundry detergent. If I could buy something for $3 or less that was what I picked. Until I had a baby.... I used to use Purex as it was a bargain detergent that I could usually get for free or $1 with a coupon. But I bought some Tide with acti-lift when it was on sale to try out, and it is most definately my favourite detergent! I use it particularly on white clothes to keep them looking new. I swear I have put the most dingy, disgusting work clothes my husband has wrecked in with Acti-Lift and they come out looking BETTER then they did! And especially with my son, he is such a messy kid, and his clothes look amazing. I love this product and recomend it to anyone with messy family members!! -

I bought a few bottles of Tide Stain release during a sale. I had a coupon so I figured, hey let's give this a try... I sort of forgot about it, and then I had my son.... Most moms and dads can agree that one of lifes most annoying occurances is watching pureed green beans splatter on your favourite little outfit for your child. I was particularly upset about an expensive onesie I had recieved as a shower gift that was the unfortunate victim of a "poop explosion". I soaked it right away with a bit of soap and it barely even touched the stain. Then I remembered the Tide stain release, so I gave it a whirl. I sprayed the area, let it sit for 5 minutes as per the directions and then washed it with a stain boost pod I had also purchased. I wasn't hopeful, but to my surprise when I went to switch out the laundry it looked as good as new! I LOVE this product, and it has become a staple in my laundry room. -
