NuRoo Swaddler- Must Have Baby Product

Disclosure- We received the below in order to facilitate this review.  All opinions are our own. For more information, see “I Disclose”.

20160622_203242

All 3 of my girls now have slept great in a swaddle blanket from birth. I absolutely love them until they have outgrown them and then been sad to see them go. Now with the NuRoo Swaddler they won’t outgrow your favorite swaddler so fast.

About NuRoo:

When Hope and Daniela first had babies, they fell in love with the practice of skin-to-skin contact after being introduced to the benefits by their nurse midwives. They came home from the hospital to active families that didn’t allow for the time to lay with baby skin-to-skin. After searching high and low for a product that offered coverage and mobility, and came up empty handed, the idea for the NuRoo Pocket was born.

Since that day, they became mompreneurs, creating and co-founding NuRoo. Together they have implemented dozens of design tweaks and mastered the process of manufacturing, to perfect the NuRoo Pocket. They have passionately continued to develop and design products that will support moms and babies. Newcomers to the family in 2014 was the NuRoo Nursing Scarf and the NuRoo Swaddler.

Every product from NuRoo fosters the bond between mom and baby, and is backed by scientific evidence. We are inspired by their children and have learned the benefits, both for mom and baby, of keeping baby close. Their mission is to offer mom and baby optimal time together in those first few months, allowing for every early advantage. Simply put, Closest to Mom. Best for Baby.

20160622_203333

About NuRoo Swaddler:

Gone are the days of purchasing multiple swaddles in every size! The NuRoo Swaddler is the only swaddle you’ll need from birth till when baby rolls. With two interior pockets and a removable seam to extend its length, the NuRoo Swaddler grows with your baby. Their 3 sizes in 1 design eliminates excess material – a potential cause of suffocation – to provide the perfect fit at every stage, keeping baby safe and secure for a sound night’s sleep.

20160622_203339

  • Choose Baby’s Arm Position
  • Secure & Easy to Use
  • Wide Leg Pockets and Easy-Stretch Fabric
  • Removable Grow Seam
  • Breathable, Moisture-wicking Fabric

My Thoughts:

Wow, I absolutely love this amazing swaddler blanket. The fabric of the swaddler is extremely soft. I love that it is a breathable, moisture-wicking material so that your child will not get hot. I also love the compression fit of the swaddler so that your child feels like they ar ebeing held. My daughter loves that there is more room for her feet, so that she can move her hips a little more freely than some of the other swaddles that I have seen in the past.

My daughter loves this swaddle and is ready for bed as soon as she is placed in it. I only have one right now, but am definitely going to order another because I hate being without it when I have to wash it.

Milestone Activity Cards- Must have for little ones

20160816_122314

Finding amazing products for your children is one of my favorite things to do. I must say that all of the Activity Cards that are offered from Milestone are absolutely amazing and a definite must have.

About Milestone:

Milestone makes sets of photo cards to capture and remember special moments that make you smile. The idea came from Dutch mom Gemma Broekhuis who wanted to capture the first time her son Mikkel rolled over. She wrote a card, added the date, and took a picture of her son with it. She did the same when he slept through the night, crawled, ate his first solid food, etc.

Realizing how precious those pictures were and how easy it is to forget those key moments, she decided to turn her idea into a product: the Milestone Baby Cards.

The first sets of cards were ready in May 2012. Today they are sold in 19 languages in 37 countries with new parents enjoying them every day. Since then they have created the following products to compliment with Milestone family: Pregnancy Cards, Mini Cards and the special nijntje/Miffy editions. And per August 2015 also the newest releases: Baby Cards Twins and the Toddler/Junior Cards.

20160816_122335

About Milestone Baby Cards:

Baby’s First Year is the set that started it all. The award winning Baby Cards are 30 photo cards that you can use to capture your baby’s first year in the weeks, months, and memorable moments. Add a card to your baby pictures and you will never forget when your little one slept through the night, rolled over or said mama for the first time. Today the original Baby Cards are available in 11 languages in over 33 countries with new parents enjoying them every day.

20160816_122350

My Thoughts:

These cards are such an awesome product. I too struggled with trying out different ways to remember those milestones with my previous children. I am so excited to have these cards to help me remember each of these wonderful moments for this child. I love having all of these cards ready to grab and snap a picture in a moments notice.

I love that they have other types of cards for people to use as well because we do live in a world that we are going so fast. I hate to lose all the little moments of life. I think that these cards have a great way of helping us remember  all those wonderful moments.

If you are or have been a working mother that breastfeeds you know that having some wonderful products to assist you in your breastfeeding voyage is incredibly important.

About Milkies Milk-Saver:

The patented Milk-Saver collects your leaking breast milk as you nurse or pump-allowing you to store extra breast milk effortlessly with each feeding.

It is extremely easy to use, you just have to slip the Milk-Saver into your bra-cup on the non-nursing side before you breastfeed. The Milk-Saver collects the milk that is leaked when your breast milk lets down. Once you’ve finished your breastfeeding session, simply transfer the collected milk into storage containers and keep it in the refrigerator or freezer to feed your baby at a later tim.

20160816_122506It is slim, durable, and portable. Extremely comfortable to wear. The Milk-Saver holds a little more than 2 ounces of breastmilk, and includes a protective lid to prevent milk from spilling out of the Milk-Saver during normal use. And with its stylish, durable case, your Milk-Saver will stay safe and clean when you are on the go.

20160718_092628

About Milkies Milk Trays:

Pumping and storing breast milk takes effort. It is a labor of love, of course, but hard work nonetheless. But, if pumping and storing your breast milk helps you reach your breastfeeding goals and allows your child to have your breast milk for as long as possible, it is worth every bit of effort, right?

20160718_093327

Milk Trays are a breast milk freezing system that can be used to make this chore much easier. They may look similar to your typical ice cube trays, but if you take a closer look, you will see that Milk Trays are much, much more. They are designed specifically for expressed milk. Most importantly, Milk Trays are made from PET plast, a food-safe plastic that contains no BPA, phthalates, or dyes. Milk Trays freezze your milk in 1-ounce “Milk Sticks” that fit through ALL bottle openings and allow you to thaw just the right amount of milk for each feeding – so that not a drop of your “liquid gold” goes to waste. Milk Trays also have a fitted lid that protect your milk while it freezes and allow for space-saving stacking in the freezer, and the trays are flexible enough to allow Milk Sticks to be removed easiliy. They are also reusable.

20160815_123617

My Thoughts:

I have been incredibly impressed with each of these products. First of all, who wants to let breastmilk go to waste when you have a letdown? I know of absolutely no nursing mother that does. The Milk-Saver is an incredible product that allows for you to effortlessly get a little milk. I must admit that I got more than I realized was leaking, so that was a major plus.

The Milk Trays are my ultimate all time favorite nursing product that I have ever used. I am not sure how I was able to go back to work and pump without these wonderful products with my previous daughters. I love having the cubes as opposed to having bags and bags of milk sitting in my freezer. I love that I can just take a bag of cubes to my daycare provider and she can get out however much milk is necessary. I know that I will be purchasing these amazing products for all friends that will be having babies in the future and breastfeeding.

Big Red Rooster’s Sound Machine- Must Have for Baby

Disclosure- We received the below in order to facilitate this review.  All opinions are our own. For more information, see “I Disclose”.
20160816_121359

With a newborn in the house as well as a 4 and 6 year old a sound machine is an absolute must have. I have always put all of my kids to bed with a lullaby cd or the womb sound bear or a fan on or something so that they aren’t constantly listening to every other sound in the house and so that they don’t wake up extremely easily either. The Big Red Rooster Sound Machine has made this a little easier for me!

About Big Red Rooster:

Brian Johnson is the founder of Big Red Rooster Products. He has been successfully creating products for the world’s major retailers for over 15 years. He helped build a lighting company to $22 million in sales from a start-up. This company quickly became the leading supplier of battery operated LED lights to retailers throughout North America. In 2014, he decided to focus on creating innovative products that help people fall asleep or get out of bed in the morning.

20160816_121414

About the White Sound Machine:

This great machine packs a big punch with the offer of a restful sleep. Measuring just 2.6 inches in height, the curved machine measured 4.4″ x 4″ making it a perfect fit on a bureau, changing table or bookshelf. Choose one of the 6 sounds – heartbeat, lullaby, ocean, rock-a-bye, twinkle, white noise. Set the optional timer to 15, 30, or 60 minutes.

  • The soothing sounds mask background noises to create an ideal sleeping environment for your baby. Babies fall asleep easier, sleep better and wake-up refreshed.
  • Leave the sound on all night or use the optimal timer
  • Portable design, great for travel
  • Powered by an AC adaptor (included) or 3 AA batteries.

20160816_121346

My Thoughts:

I was a huge fan of this awesome product. I have always used the womb sound bear in my kids bed as babies and then turn on a lullaby cd when I put them to bed now that the older two are older. I am so happy to have a nice compact little device that I can use for all 3 of my girls. I love that it can be plugged in or ran off of batteries if you need to. The sound of the machine are great and can be used all night or just until your kiddo falls asleep.

Purchase:

If you are interested in purchasing this wonderful sound machine you can purchase it from the Red Rooster website or from Amazon.

20160815_083646

My Thoughts:

I am so incredibly excited about this awesome chair. I have 3 daughters and as you can see this is my middle and she definitely is old enough that she doesn’t really need a high chair or booster seat. However my youngest is getting closer and closer to sitting up each day and I know as soon as she sits up this chair is going to come in handy on a daily basis. This chair not only is perfect to attach to any chair anywhere that you are, but it is also wonderful to have toys that are on it so that your child can easily be entertained while you finish up supper or get the table set. We are big about having a family supper time in our house. All of us sit down together and eat on most evenings.

BOB Duallie Infant Car Seat Adapter

Disclosure- We received the below in order to facilitate this review.  All opinions are our own. For more information, see “I Disclose”.

20160805_101837

Being the mom of 3 children with two children 4 and over means that you are definitely a mom on the go. This wonderful carseat adapter has been a lifesaver for this momma on the go.

bob-logo

About BOB:

In 1994, Roger Malinowski, a bicycle industry maven, met Phillip Novotny, an airline mechanic, in the California town of San Luis Obispo. Phillip had turned a decrepit beach cruiser bike into a versatile, lightweight, single track bike trailer. He called it the YAK and was rolling them out of a machine shop on a small scale. Roger knew a great idea when he saw one and together, they took Phillip’s invention and built a booming business.

BOB was originally named Beast of Burden, but was eventually shortened to BOB.

BOB was first a great bike trailer that was completely amazing. However, Roger and Phillip soon began to start families of their own. They were inspired to design and build a superior jogging stroller that would be held to the same high standards as their trailers. The initial result was the BOB Sport Utility Stroller, complete with aptented suspension system, tough polymer wheels, easy-fold frame, a reclining, padded seat and several other features no one had ever put on a stroller before. They truly “wanted the best of a bunch of worlds”, said Roger. “A lightweight, high-quality stroller that you could still take running, hiking, or off-road and also fold up easily and compactly. The fact we could put all of these elements in one stroller is what really attracted people to it.”

Shortly after this stroller hit the market people started asking about a two-seat stroller, which led to the introduction of the Duallie in 2001.

Many changes have happened over the years which has left BOB one of the top strollers on the market in our country today.

20160805_101907

About Carseat Adapter:

You can now transform your BOB Duallie Stroller into the perfect travel system with the BOB Duallie Infant Car Seat Adapter. This accessory allows you to easily connect compatible Britax and BOB Infant Car Seats with BOB Duallie Jogging Strollers. It also features a snack tray for your second child.

20160813_122658

This is compatible with Britax and BOB Infant Car Seats featuring the Click & Go adapter system.

Easy to install or remove from the stroller, and it even folds with the stroller.

20160813_122654

My Thoughts:

YAY! I was so incredibly excited for this awesome product. I love my BOB stroller and am so happy to be able to use my new carseat with it so that we can be out and about whenever we want and my daughter can be in one of her favorite spaces in the world (Snuggled in that comfy carseat). It was incredibly easy for me to install it within minutes of receiving it. I love how secure it is and I know that my child is strapped in safely. I know that I am going to get a great deal of use out of this amazing product!
