great wipes My wife and I really like this product. They seem a bit heavier than the regular brands, but once you read and compare the ingredients list, you won't give that a second thought.

Wonderful suprise I got this item as a gift and it is so great. It is so soft and cozy that my baby cannot sleep without it. It also keeps the mattress dry. I plan on buying a couple more.

Must have! I bought this blue HALO sleepsack after receiving a cream colored one from the hospital. I had purchased a set of the Summer Infant swaddlers, but my son did not like them at all. Every single time I put him in one of these HALO sleepsack's he immediately would fall asleep. I didn't have to worry about him being too cold during the night, or worry about loose blankets. He did prefer to have his arms out once he was around 2 weeks old, so I'm so happy that option is available. If I ever have another child, I will be ordering several of these. I did see the review about the wings ending up over baby's face, and I did experience this, a simple adjustment to make sure the wings were positioned correctly and tightly eliminated this problem. Out of all of the baby gear out there, I really think this is a must have!

seems to be working great I picked this up at a Babies R Us store on a whim and I'm glad i did. My 2.5 month old son went through phases where he didn't like to be in his bouncer, but he loved hanging out in this swing. when the mirror is set up so he can see himself he can entertain himself for a while by flirting with himself and even though for part of the swing motion he's almost flat on his back he doens't seem to mind at all. the ability to easily pack it up and take it with us on trips has been great. The only thing I wish is that the swing was rated for a heavier child, since he's gaining weight so fast that he's going to be too heavy for it in just a little while.

Not For Use With Booster Seat This product is intended to be used to position a seat belt to fit a child correctly while the child is sitting in the regular seat. It is not intended for use with a booster seat. Reviews based on use with a booster seat are incorrect.

Safe car seat to transition into forward facing We really like this Britax marathon car seat. We read a lot of reviews from people that had previously purchased it and based our decision to buy it on that. I can say that we have not been disappointed and it gives us comfort knowing that our daughter is in something that is safe.

Great quality product, well-made We purchased this gate to use in a doorway to keep three little ones from escaping their playroom. It arrived the day after I placed my order. The product packaging was great, however the installation instructions were hard to follow. It goes require use of the wall mounting cups. It took more than two hours for me to install which was much longer than I planned when embarking on installation. I did call North States and got the installation help I needed easily. The gate is extremely well made and heavy duty. It does require you to push the thumb tab AND lift up to open the gate which I didn't realize before I received it. Because it is SO heavy, I have had some wrist pain from opening it repeatedly. However, I am pleased with the sturdiness of the gate and will likely buy another one for my stairway.

THE perfect potty chair! This potty chair has far exceeded my expectations. I now have two in my home. The two most important characteristics of this chair are that it’s very comfortable and easy to use for the child, and SUPER easy to clean for the parents. I would recommend this potty chair to any parent looking to make potty training as simple and easy as possible!

Came with wrong pieces This item came with wrong pieces. Assembly was much more difficult than other dressers we own. The screws had no screw holes and 1/5 drawers did not even belong to the set. My husband had to crack the screws in which will most likely lead to future cracks. Also, not enough screws were sent! I am disappointed with this product. It is not worth the price. Wish I would've purchased at Target or somewhere nearby to remedy this issue. Pass on this dresser!

Saved my life with baby #2, Buying again for #3! I picked one of these up for my second child, wondering if I would *really* need it, since I fed, diapered, and napped my first completely on-demand for the first six months. However, I knew that with two little munchkins, that exhausting game was not going to work, and hoped this timer would help us to establish a better routine. As it turns out, baby #2 was a high-needs newborn, complete with a fun little colostomy. When I say that the Itzbeen baby timer saved my life, I'm not sure this is an exaggeration. Those first few months home with him (and a two year old) were the hardest of my entire life and this timer helped me to understand his rhythms so that I could work with them to establish a routine that worked for all of us. I used the "90 Minute Miracle" principles to help him sleep and the timer really helped me to keep track of his waking and sleeping. My only complaint is that I wish it had a memory so I could go back and see the last, say, 5 or 6 time intervals for each button. However, I guess that's what a good old fashioned pen and paper are for.Oh, and my other complaint... Child #2 became completely fascinated with this little gadget. One day shortly after his first birthday, he got a hold of it, and while my daughter was bathing, he decided to see what would happen if he chucked it in the bathtub. Our beloved Itzbeen did not survive this unfortunate event. Now that our third child is on the way, I plan to purchase another of these and hope it does not suffer the same fate as its late cousin.

Don't waste your time and money on cheaper monitors! As a first time mom, there is not a single product I received that I love as much as this one! Our little boy has reflux and as a newborn slept better on his side. We also swaddled him; but, inevitably, the blanket would come undone during the night. Thus, with a loose blanket and side-lying baby, I ended up worrying a lot more about SIDS than I thought I would. This monitor will help you sleep better and the first time your little one sleeps through the night you won't wake up in a cold sweat wondering if he's ok.Not only is the movement detection great, but so is the sound. The parent's unit works great in the downstairs room that is farthest from our little boy's upstairs nursery--even with all the doors closed between the two. I even carried it two houses down when my husband was in the shower and a neighbor needed some quick help. I could still hear the lullaby music playing from there.The alarm has gone off a couple of times: Once, as a newborn it may have startled him back to movement. Now it goes off occasionally b/c he is so active and gets right up to the sides of the crib. You do need to follow the directions closely so that it can accurately pick up movement.Don't waste your time and money on cheaper monitors. This one works great and you'll sleep better, too!

Just OK This body pillow is not nearly as comfortable as my past body pillow, which was the Comfort-U (which I highly recommend!). It's too stiff, although I'm sure it'll soften over time. The stitching in the curves is too tight and therefore not flexible enough. The fabric is a little rough too. I was expecting a much more comfortable pillow and am now regretting I didn't stick with the Comfort-U, which is a little bigger and bulkier, but you feel surrounded by a cloud and it's so much more comfortable.

great for boys I bought 2 of these when my son was born 3yrs ago. It made my life so much easier until the day he was out of his crib. As an infant it was great for diaper blowouts, diaper leaks, spit up, etc. as it is easy to remove and wash. When my son was old enough to pull on the elastic ties, I used it under the crib sheet so I only needed to replace the sheet in the middle of the night.I admit, after several (2yrs worth) washings, they are not as long as the crib mattress, and the layers inside seem to have separated in places,therefore, I am replacing them now but they were a great help for the 2yrs that I used them.

Best Pregnancy Pillow ever This pillow is a wonderful invention for a pregnant woman. I used it for both of my pregnancies and now buy them for my friends who become pregnant. They all love it too! The only negative to it is that it takes up a lot of room in the bed and our husbands usually don't like that. At least mine didn't. I also used this pillow after the baby was born while recovering from my c-section and it was great!

Like it, but could use some improvements I really like this booster seat compared to other boosters I've used when over at someone else's house. Wish I could give it more stars, but there are drawbacks.The good things about this booster are:1)The tray is very easy to snap on and off (versus ones that have to slide along a slot), 2) the seat conforms to my kids little bodies. I find it prevents them from inevitably slouching down as I've experienced with other boosters. (But, I don't think this would be a + if you have a particularly chubby baby. The seat seems more narrow relatively speaking.)What I don't like:1) The top trays are so easy to remove, my son figured out how to pull the them off very shortly after we started using the seats. My daughter was right behind him. Basically, a useless item until they are old enough to understand that we don't think it's a good idea.2) No way to remove the straps and throw them in the wash. Maybe this is common in boosters, but let's face it, kids make a mess and the straps get dirty too.3) Why is only 1 piece of 3 dishwasher safe?

Sun protector Works and fits great on my stroller. Got a surprise from company. They wanted to check when stroller was made to make sure it was the right cover. Very professional and nice. Happy with everything!

A Great Car Seat When my daughter turned a year old, I was originally going to buy the Triumph by Evenflo based on a recommendation from my sister-in-law. However, I decided that I wanted a car seat that converts to a booster so that I didn't have to buy another car seat when my daughter reached 40 pounds. So I began research and liked what I saw with the Alpha Omega Elite. However, I became a little worried by some of the bad reviews it got. One being that it is so big--I own a Saturn SL2. The other being that the straps always twisted. Well I decided to go for it anyway and haven't had a single regret! I had absolutely no problem installing it into my car. I have it in the middle of the back seat (which is the recommended position) and it fits fine. I wouldn't be able to fit another car seat back there but that is because my car is small. I've had the seat over a month and the straps have not twisted once! We also just recently drove all the way to Florida (a 21 hour drive) and my daughter slept all night! She seems to love the car seat. So far this car seat has been great. I hope it holds up for the remaining years she needs to be in a car seat!

Steady Price Increase I've been buying Pampers Baby Dry on Amazon for many months. The price is being increased every month on the same product with the same quantity. Unacceptable. I love the diapers, but will most likely be buying from somewhere else from now on.
01 star
too wide for center position in my car i like the look and thickness/material of this seat saver, but it's too wide (atleast 4 inches) for the center position of my 2001 mercedes SL350 and it does not have any seat belt slots to compensate. :(

Tried so many and this is what worked best for us. I have tried so many bottles. Really, Avent, Soothie, Mam, Ventaire, Dr. Browns, Gerber, Evenflo, and Born Free: from the cheapest to some of the most expensive.These are not perfect but they are what worked the best.Pros:-wide nipple, baby preferred-cleaned easily-had few parts-could be warmed in a bottle warmer or hot water-didn't need special tricks to keep from leakingCons:-had to buy liners-measurements could be betterI got over buying the liners in two ways: I started recycling my liners and I started using the Playtex flat liners available here on Amazon which helped the cost a lot. I can buy 5 months supple of liners (5 bottles a day) for less than $30 shipped/taxed.The measurements are still not great but since I premix every day's formula in a large pitcher the night before, I don't have to have the exact measurements. I know now from practice at about where on the liners the milk needs to go.

Great for having 2 little ones! We bought this stroller knowing that we were going to have a second baby. I got used to using it with one child right before we had our second. All of the seat options were awesome. We have even folded it up at the gate check getting on the plane and taken it through airport security many times. We have had it wand-checked, and I've received compliments from the baggage crew for being able to lift it and unfold it myself (I'm kind of a small mom 5'2"). It is really heavy, but like everyone else says, most tandems are. I took it everywhere until my son became too tall for it at 3 1/2. We watched many lacrosse games across all kinds of fields and took it to the mall, zoo, museum, and out and about. We did have a couple of bolts fall off and the friendly guys at Ace Hardware were willing to help me replace them (I think they fell off because of the hard use I gave this stroller). The red handles on the side are awesome for teaching my older child to stay by the stoller in the stores. I wish all strollers had these handles.

Baby won't take this bottle I had heard great things about Avent and received this set as a gift. My son hated these bottles, the nipples were huge! He immediately took a bottle that had a Nuk nipple on it, and we have never had any problems with him taking a bottle since then. I have heard from several other mothers who had the same problem with Avent bottles - before you buy an entire set, make sure your baby will take this bottle.

Works well on my 2 dogs I got this gate to place on the staircase to keep my dogs from going up the stairs. It works very well for the last couple of weeks and has kept them at bay. I have one large 50lbs dog and a small 10lbs dog, and they both have tried getting past it without any luck. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase.

Best changing table for a great price! I actually got this same changing table at a garage sale for $10, it was in perfect condition just needed to be cleaned, anyway- if I had to buy it at regular price I would! This table has lasted a year now and I am very happy with it. I recommend buying a curved changing pad to go with it though.

Great Gate! I bought one... then a second... then a third... Have them at the top of both stairs and the bottom of our main floor stair. I've had them installed for about 4 months and they still work perfectly. I think the locking mechanism is very solid too and will not be figured out by a baby or most toddlers. And they auto-close! That's a great feature. With two older kids and the baby I'm just wondering how long they will last.... but that would go for any gate. These are great and a great deal.

NEVER HAD A DIAPER RASH OR LEAK! Disposable diapers are crude but you need them. Do the earth a favor and diaper a little greener with these. They are bare bones in terms of look ..... no cute pictures..... just plain natural color and not as soft as other brands like Huggies on the outside but they do the job just as well as the others. They have the stretchy tabs which make it comfortable around baby's waist. My baby has been using these since birth and at the time of this review he is 6 months old and he has never had a leak or a diaper rash, never!The price is also comparable. These should be the only disposable diapers allowed on the market if we really care about the planet.

Serves its purpose in my home! I purchased The Secure Surround Play Yard because I needed a safe place for my busy daughter to play so I could get some things done around the house. It definately serves its purpose in our home. Granted, Olivia only spends about 5 minutes in it at a time because she always wants to be with me! But we have a very open house and this is the largest play yard I could find. I go in there with her from time to time and she will play for much longer this way. A must-have for you moms who need a break from holding your little one or from chasing your babies while you try to get stuff done!!

Awesome to use after the baby's formula days are over! I love these bottles. Both of my sons used them after they were done taking formula (at 12 months you can switch to regular milk). No fuss at all! The greatest thing is I never had a problem with leakage -- and the bottles look cute and do not look cheap at all. The best part is -- NO MORE STERELIZING! However I still microwaved the nipples after washing them, simply by placing them in a bowl with some water and microwaving for a few minutes...these bottles are GOD SEND!!!Avent? Forget it!!! All it does is leak! Let's face it...we all wanted Avent at first because it's so "cool" looking and it seems like all the cool moms have Avent for their babies...but really -- for your newborn???? Stick with the Gerber 99 cents bottles you can get at K-Mart or your local grocery store...yes, you will be sterelizing...but after 1 year...you can switch to the playtex disposables and life is JUST GREAT. Will I recommend Playtex for your newborn? Probably not, the nipples don't seem to be too "newborn babies friendly." WAIT TILL YOU BABY IS A YEAR OLD AND IT WILL DO IT'S AWESOME JOB!! So who cares about cool looking bottles -- they are bottles for christ sake!!! If your baby can talk he'll say - let's talk practical and CLEAN -- no leaks!

what a difference! Well, this is the best stroller I have owned so far. My daughters are 2 and 1, and they both LOVE this stroller. The last stroller we had was the peg perego aria twin, and although it is very lightweight, it is hard to push with the unbalanced weight, maybe it would be better for actual twins. Anyway, this is so easy to push, and the maneuverability is awesome, better than a single graco quattro in my opinion. I opted for the lightweight version because I have nerve damage in one hand, so it is still a little heavy to me, but hubby/sis/grandma think it's great. My 2yo was afraid of the canopy on the regular joovy, so I was skeptical, but she loves the taller canopy because it is up so high and away from her. Two things I would change - first, I would like the stroller to fold to an upright position, so you don't have to fold it to the ground, and second I would like the kid tray cupholders just a little bigger, the straw cups need just a little more room to fit in. Minor complaints, all in all I love this one! Oh, and as far as storage goes, very accessible from the side, holds the essentials but that's about it.

My daughter cried out in pain every time we put her in this! I hate this carseat. We registered for it (big mistake) & received it as a gift before our daughter was born. My husband & I installed it -- it took about 30 minutes -- when I was 6 1/2 mos. pregnant. We really liked it until we had to take our daughter home from the hospital. It took 4 people about 15 minutes to figure out how to properly adjust it -- and we did read the directions. The straps are way too short & extremely difficult to adjust. Our poor daughter cried every time we buckled her in. The straps just don't provide enough slack to comfortably put her arms through, and the puzzle buckle is a pain. Our daughter is less than 9 lbs. at 4 wks old & we finally gave up & got the convertible Britax Roundabout. The Roundabout is much safer, and although it's $199, it's worth every penny & lasts alot longer. Thank God we aren't causing our poor little girl pain anymore.Do not get this car seat!

Price Increase............. I use have used pampers for both of my children. I the last time I ordered some pampers through amazon the price was 7.49. I logged on today to order 4 more packages and to my disbelief they upped the price 3.00. I will no longer be using amazon after seeing such a big price hike.

One of the best product for babies This is a very fun product my daughter love it. First she was just seating in there, she was 2 months old, she learned to touch some toys to make the music, which is very annoying at time, but she loved it, now that she almost 4 months all she does is jumping non-stop. I will buy it again.

Love this tub! I had received previously another tub which we were using when our son was first being bathed. It was convenient because it fit in the kitchen sink, but he kept sliding to the side in it so I was worried about keeping him upright and it made bathing difficult. Finally I tried this one which we received at our shower. It is larger than the other one, but it is WONDERFUL! The insert kept him upright and he stays warmer because its deeper. I set it on the kitchen counter and he has room to splash around making bath time more fun for him. I can't recommend this tub enough, it is worth the money by far!

Best on market Pampers Baby-Dry Diapers, Size 4 (22-37 Lbs) Economy Plus Pack (176 Diapers)I ordered these diapers on a 'subscribe & save basis' for my daughter as a Baby Shower gift (along with the wipes) as long as she needs them. With everything she & her husband have to take care of with small children,this takes away 2 huge chores and expenses for them. They are delivered monthly and dropped at her door and she never has to even think about it. I get free shipping and a 15% discount so the monthy savings are fantastic. All I have to do is upgrade the size when needed. She only used Pampers for her 1st baby, having tried all the other brands, she chose Pampers as the BEST!

A must-have for active families! I am in love with the Potette! First of all, it's made in the good ol' USA and it's a available at a perfectly reasonable price.I initially purchased this for taking on our boat while we're potty-training our 2.5 year old daughter, but as it would turn out, we never leave home without it. For friends' houses, it's nice to use it as a potty topper, and when we're out and about, I use the lining bags and click the legs into place and let the kiddo go potty in the car instead of nasty public restrooms.It's versatile, lightweight, and easy to use. Yeah, you have to make sure it snaps into place or it will be wobbly (my husband learned this lesson) but once you get it down, it's simple. I would recommend it to any family on the go!

The heat pack didn't do much for our baby, but it has other uses The heat pack didn't really do anything for our baby, and I laugh/cringe at this blurb from the item description: "... the herbs are activated to release healing properties which provide almost immediate relief of most common stomach ailments." Yeah, sure, whatever.However, it makes an adequate emergency swaddle cloth when you can't find your regular blanket or swaddle cloth. We wrap it around our daughter's body with her arms in front so that she can't startle herself awake with her arms.What finally brought relief to our baby's gassy/fussiness was changing her formula. Our fifth formula in eight weeks, Similac Alimentum, did it and she's like a different baby. Much happier, more mellow, alert and not so upset all the time. Too bad we had to go through five other formulas to get there! (Enfamil Lipil with Iron, Enfamil LacoFree, Similac R.S. Sensitive, Similac Sensitive, and now Similac Alimentum).

Crib set Nice crib set for the price, but the bumper and bed skirt does not fit as well as I would have liked it to. But it can be altered with a few tweaks. The sheet and quilt are made from quality material which is a plus for the price.

Caused Dent in Baby's Head The cushion has two raised bumps. One of these bumps caused a dent in the baby's head after prolonged use. We had to cut through the foam to remove reduce the bump so that we could avoid a cranio-facial specialist. I would have given it 4 stars if it didn't have these stupid bumps. It would also be better if it were longer.

Hard to use.... I found this product extremely difficult to use. The elastic makes it difficult to place in the cart. I could not do it with one hand. Good idea, poor design.

Captivating to my Toddler!!! I can't rave about this night light enough. I have a 2 year old son that absolutely LOVES this thing. Its nice to have options with light color, although my son really likes the blue settings.Sometimes our son needs a little motivation to get him to WANT to put on his PJs and start winding down, and this little turtle is the perfect thing to do it. He gets so excited to turn it on every night, bedtime has become SO much easier!If you are looking for a nighlight, look no further. Definitely worth every penny!

best baby gate We got this gate for our front door which leads to a couple of steps. Now that our daughter is crawling/cruising and almost walking and with summer temperatures rising we wanted to be able to let her explore the house safely and be able to keep the door open.The gate is easy to install and fits very tightly in our door frame (so much so that we didn't have to screw in the cups to make it a permanent gate. The standard gate extension that is included with the gate will make it work for pretty much any door frame so you only need to order an additional extension if your door or opening is extra wide.The bars are close enough your baby can't go through but still leaves you with a view.We love the auto-close features, very handy when coming in/out with both your arms full.The downsides:1) you have to watch your step when using it so as to not trip over the floor bar2) you'll have to show everyone how to use it, the opening mechanism is easy to operate once you know how it works and kids will never figure it out, but it will take an adult some time too if you dont show them.I would recommend this gate, well worth the price.
45 stars
not as good as I hoped for I was happy that this came sooner than expected. But when putting it together, yes it's not all one piece, I was already dissapointed.I think the design could be better. I think the seat sould all be one piece with the exception of a removable cup, for easier cleaning.Also, the design is totally different. Still McQueen, so my son loves it.

Best diaper bag ever! I bought this bag about a year ago and am still very happy with it. I bought when I was expecting my fourth (all under four) and needed a bag that fit the needs of an infant and three small children. This bag is huge, lots of space, lots of pockets and constructed in strong sturdy fabric that's washable. The added benefit is the ability to clip the bag to my double stroller or a grocery cart leaving me much need space. I highly recommend the Skip Hop Canvas diaper bag line. Very practical for such an expensive product.

Great but...... My baby loves, loves, loves this swing. We love it because it swings two ways. If he gets fussy swinging one way, we turn him around and swing him the other way.Now, the reason for the two stars: the motor went out... Twice! We purchased the first swing in December 06. In February the motor went out and we had to get another one. Then just today, April 25, 07 the motor conked out AGAIN!We don't even turn on the lights for our baby because they distract him. All he ever does is swing.Someone talked about this item not being sturdy. It doesn't feel sturdy but it is. It has to stand on two legs because you need to turn the swing. We've never had any problems with it breaking down. We only have motor issues.At $159 the motor should not go out. I'd stay away from it.If you can get another model that swings both ways, do that. That's the only feature that is absolutely fantastic about it.

very durable We have been using this stroller for a year and a half. It is very compact, easy to use, comfortable for our daughter and durable. Our daughter who is almost two years old still likes to nap in it when we go on walks. It is compact enough to take on public transportation, but also sturdy and stable enough to hang shopping bags on the handles. We have even taken walks with it on unpaved, narrow and hilly hiking trails. Highly recommended. The only downside is that you have to be very careful with your fingers when clasping the harness. It tends to pinch.

LearningCents Bank - Blue My wife and I had been looking for something to help teach our kids about money; we wanted them to take their allowance and split it up as follows: 80% keep/spend, 10% save, and 10% give to church. The LearningCents bank was PERFECT for this. We were even able to buy a pink one for our girl!

Love the bottles We love these bottles. It really helps with gas. My only negative has to do with the fact that now that the bottles have changed to get rid of bPA (or whatever it was) they are harder to heat. We have a Avent bottle warmer and they just don't conduct heat as well.

Good buy For the price I paid for this gate, its totally worth it. I was hesitant to purchase this product after reading some reviews, but figured I'd give it a shot and am happy I did. We live in an apartment and I did not want any gates with hardware. It is not very easy to get it to the correct door size, but once that's done its a breeze. If you don't mind hopping over a gate, this is the gate for you. I ordered 2 more after I was happy with the first but.

Satisfied I've been using this brand since we took our 1st LO (who is now 16 mo.) out from the hospital since she was born... I'm using the same brand for our 2nd LO a NB. Have always been satisfied... I've tried huggies but I think I just got comfortable with pampers already so decided to stick with it. Plus to start off its the brand used by the hospitals.... I guess coz its more affordable than huggies.

they leak out the filling! After having 4 children in diapers now I recentl;y re-tryed the Huggies brand Ultrathin style of diapers. While I do believe they fit well and the stretch waistband is nice they have a very nasty problem with falling apart. Whats up with this? Usually a good product now Falls all to pieces inside after being wet for only a short time. To the point of when removing the soiled diaper it showers out the filling and makes a real mess. Have you changed your prosses?, or filling material? or something? I would be interested to know and unfortunitly will have to advise anyone who cares to avoid this product..Thank you for your time.

Should have done this sooner I've been spraying my diapers all this time. I can't believe how much easier this makes the job. If I had known what I was missing before I never would have waited so long to try them. Everyone who takes turns changing baby agrees that these liners have been the best thing we've done yet. In fact, I haven't even had to use my diaper sprayer since getting these, which is nice because I often vacation and no longer have to disconnect and reconnect a sprayer onto toilets wherever I stay. Also a plus when changing baby somewhere I couldn't/wouldn't want to dunk a diaper (like a public toilet). Even with very soft messes it's a savior. Most of a soft mess, if not all, comes out with a simple lift of the paper and solid messes are always contained! I also feel it's been reducing the amount of potential stain on my prefolds because of the paper barrier reducing the contact of the waste to the cloth.The reason I had hesitated before was because I thought that one of the reasons I wanted to use cloth was to avoid anything harsh, scratchy, or papery on my baby's skin. Why use soft cloth to then slap paper on top? In reality, while they're not super soft, they're so thin, I feel like they compact and mold well to the baby and don't seem to irritate at all. Additionally, I find I can wash the liners that had been urine soaked a few times with the soiled diapers before needing to toss it and after being washed they get very soft, like a very thin and gauzy cotton which feels almost pleasant to the touch.I will absolutely keep using these and recommend them to everyone I know who is currently diapering.

Easy, cost-effective and healthy for your baby! With my first baby I was so intimidated by the thought of making my own baby food, ESPECIALLY since I was working full-time. A friend gifted this to me and I'm so glad! It really IS quick and easy and I know exactly what my kids are eating. I'm on baby #2 and I still love this product! The cook book gives super-easy instructions for making the food (um, microwave and blender...could it be simpler?!) and the stage-by-stage guide for foods for baby is an incredible reference for me.If you're hesitant to try this with your baby, just take a stroll down the baby food aisle and read the backs of the jars. Sure, there really aren't a lot of weird ingredients on there (meaning, mostly it is FOOD), but have you seen how many of the jarred 3rd foods have carrots as one of the main ingredients? Nothing wrong with carrots, but I didn't realize I was giving them to my kids 3x a day. It's really nice to know exactly what your kids are eating with this system.If you're thinking that you should just get the cookbook and use regular ice cube trays for the foods, please click "read all my reviews" next to my name and read my review of the trays. They are integral to the ease-of-use of this system! I even bought 2 more on Amazon so I could make even more food at once.The DVD was really helpful to ease my fears about this being complicated or something that only a stay-at-home mom with tons of time could do. When they say 30 minutes a week, they mean it! I'd even say the 30 minutes includes clean-up. This is a great gift for yourself or a friend and I plan on getting it for my sister to use with her new baby. I'd pass mine along to her but it's such a great product I'm hanging on to it!

Great seat! My daughter loves this seat - mostly because it is purple! She appears to be comfortable in it, and has even fallen asleep in it. I like: ease of use, lightweight, removable/washable fabric cover, cup holders. We even bought a second for the other car. The only thing I question is that the seat itself does not strap into the car (no latch or other tether)- I try to buckle it in when my daughter is not riding in the car for fear the seat will go flying into me or my infant if I were to get into an accident.

Not as great as you might think. We registered for this and thought we were lucky to receive it. After putting it together (it is very large) and turning it on for a test run we were very disappointed. The mobile makes noise while turning (clicking) and was very distracting. The mobile also gets stuck and makes a grinding noise until it gets going again. Needless to say - we returned it.

Not was I was hoping for I am a little disappointed in the pillow. I have trouble getting comfortable using it as a pillow for my head. If you have a small bed I wouldn't recommend on getting this because it is pretty big.

Great chair! We bought this high chair because the one we had from our son was pinching our daughter. We live in a small townhouse, so space is limited, and I wanted a chair that was easy to tuck away. This one ROCKS. It's very slim when folded, and easy to collapse and re-open. The pattern is pretty, and my daughter seems quite comfy in it. It's a dream to wipe clean. The ONLY reason that I didn't give this 5 stars is because the tray does not always catch the grooves and click in right away. But I would not use that as a discouragement - this high chair is great.

Glad we bought it! The Joovy Caboose is lightweight but solid. A very well designed, sturdy, and very functional stroller. Our 3-year old loves to stand on the back platform, and the rear jumpseat is perfect for when she decides to sit for a while. The front seat is designed well - it's easy to get our son in and out, and the buckles/straps attach/detach quickly. The cargo basket is reasonably easy to access, although we were not expecting to have to slide the rear jump seat back to get things in and out. The basket itself is large enough to accomodate a diaper bag, coats, and/or a couple shopping bags. On the negative side, there is no place to hang a diaper bag, so it must be carried or placed in the cargo basket. There is also no cup holder for the rear jumpseat/platform area, so Mom and Dad have to hold our daughter's cup for her while we're on the move. There is also no cup holder for Mom or Dad, although there is an optional organizer that can be purchased separately. All-in, we think this is an excellent product at a great price. It could be improved by adding a cup holder for the rear jumpseat/platform area, and a place to hang a diaper bag, but other than that the Joovy Caboose is great!

Great blanket My son will not go anywhere in the car without this blanket. It holds up to washing and a toddler very well.

Dry? Lie! These diapers are simply awful. I mistakenly ordered 192 of them! My poor son has woke up in the middle of the night absolutely soaked through. I will not purchase these again - sticking with the Cruisers from now on.

Great but be careful what you put into it It works great. I wouldn't worry about the condensation on it, I forgot to empty it after removing my items and left it sitting with water in it overnight (and it wasn't completely sealed) and it still smelled sterile the next day. I had used the Medela Spring Express pump I got at the hospital and was sterilizing all pieces but the spring in this. It melted the handle (which probably didn't really need to be sterilized, as it does not come in contact with the milk. I'll put other brand baby bottles in it, but besides that I only trust it with Avent products (but other items don't need to be sterilized as often so the traditional way would probably work). It's convenient for mothers who have other children running around (I'm on my second, though I do wish I had this for my daughter, I was more "anal" about sterilizing things with her as she was my first). Also note, according to a book compiled by pediatricians (can't remember the name offhand), they suggest you sterilize bottles and pacifiers until the baby is 6 months old.

Convenient I purchased this because I didn't have room for a stand-alone high-chair. It really won't fit every chair but I have one it works well with. It cleans easily. I've washed the cover several times and it still looks "good-as-new".

GREAT! These pullups are great and they don't leak at night time. I just wish Pampers would come out with that "cold" thing when they have to pee, this potty training is tough.

Vtech walker My 10 month old loves this toy. He went from being afraid to let go of furniture to walking next to me (holding one of my hands) in just a few days of using this. There were times when he'd hold on to one of my fingers and he didnt think he could stand alone (even though he was strong enough to do so) and if nothing else, this toy has built his confidence to where he trusts his own legs a bit more. He absolutely loves the detachable activity center and crawls over to the walker itself, pulls himself up and starts pushing w/o any prompting. Overall, I'd say that this toy deserves a 5. The activity cntr is entertaining and educational (as much as you can expect from a toy that serves dual purposes) and the walker builds confidence. Worth the money.

Free Wheeler 2 vs Turismo Well after months of research I finally narrowed it down to this stroller and the Schwinn Turismo. I ordered both strollers to see and try them out in person and to see which one fit my 2 month old and 2 year old better. If you have any questions,don't hesitate to ask. Believe me, I have analyzed the crap out of these two strollers. I just wish I could combine the two! After stressing out on my decision for over a month I ended up getting the Turismo only to discover I like this one much better. Yes, it doesn't have a lot of the features the Turismo does, but I like it a lot better. The main difference between the two being that my 2 year old just did not look comfortable in the Turismo. The way the platform was designed, his feet just stuck straight out or hung off the side instead of bending at the knee. And the straps were tight on his crotch and he is only 2, and not tall for his age. He has a lot more leg room in this stroller even though at this point in time his legs aren't quite long enough to bend at the knee. The seats are much more comfortable sling back seats and don't have a hard board in the back. There is piping, but it doesn't seem to bother my son at all. Best of all, when the seats are in the fully reclined position it is perfect for a newborn or young baby. I am excited for the weather shield and think that it will come in very handy for walks when it is not so warm. The only think that would make this stroller a five star is higher seat backs and a decent cup holder for the parents. There are pockets on the inside of the child seats for drinks and snacks, but those just seam like they would be more of a hassle. I just bought a snack and drink holder that attaches to the side and it works great! There is lots of storage in the parent console, behind the seats and the basket underneath. Two canopies would be nice, but in reality, if you are pulling it forward to keep the sun out of one child's eyes, the other one probably needs it too. It would also be nice to have a latch to keep it closed and handles to pick it up, but they no longer are making this model, So I guess I will have to make due and create something of my own. It is really light and I have no problem getting it in and out of my van. I did have a problem with it getting stuck when closing it and contacted amazaon and they promptly sent me a replacement. I also recommend tightning the bolt under the wheel cover before you put it on so your wheel doesn't jiggle. All in all, for the price you can't beat it! I only wish I would have listened to my heart instead of my head and kept this one the first time around!

Hate this swing!! This swing sucks! My son hates it now that he is 3 months mainly because it doesn't recline enough. He still sits up and it just isn't comfy. I disagree with the other people who said its too fast - now that Gavin is 12.5 lbs, the fastest setting isn't fast enough because he weighs it down. The only reason we bought this swing was because it matched our living room! New moms, go for what works well no matter how ugly or mismatched it looks!

Not for my car This might have been okay but I have a BMW 650 and the cover does not fit my car. I would have returned this but it was not worth it.The coment that it attaches to any seat is kind of correct. However it does not say it fits and it does not.

good seat I have only been using this seat for one month, but so far it seems to be very easy to use and the base was easy to install. It feels heavy to me, but I'm told by my other mom friends that it is light when compared to other popular seats.

Love these Cradle sheets are so hard to find and I was worried that my old mattress wouldn't ever find a sheet that fits. This sheet fits, doesn't shrink in the wash, and is soft for baby. Excellent buy. So far is resistant to baby stains as well. Plan to order from American Baby Co. again.

Must have for new mom In those first few months when you are becoming acclimated to being a mom, you realize how hard this job really is. To compound the issues of no sleep, not eating normal meals, avoiding the piling laundry, and neglecting the household pets, you realize that your memory was lost in the delivery room. This little timer is a life saver if you are breastfeeding. I had the hardest time remembering which side our baby was on during the last feeding, and even how long it had been since the last feeding. Our daughter was colicky, and sleep was a million dollar prize in our household. My husband and I took shifts, but when you are breastfeeding, you are always on call and this timer allowed me to not worry so much about what happened 2 hours ago. Now that I am back to work, I take it with me as a reminder of when I need to pump. Yes, my body lets me know it's time, but the itzbeen is an additional reminder so that I don't get so caught up in my job that I put it off.We mainly used this for a feeding timer since our daughter had an erratic sleep schedule, and was a champion pooper so no need to record those. Overall, it was well worth the 15 dollars.

Great for Larger Children It happens that my son is off the charts for height and weight. On his 2nd birthday he was in the 50th percentile for a [...] He is not yet potty trained at 2.9 and therefore still needs to wear diapers--diapers that won't chafe, aren't too tight, and are still effective. I've only found two that I like: Pampers Cruisers and 7th Generation.

Best Bathtub on the Market We have been using this with our twins since they were 3 months old and have been extremely happy. For safety reasons you should never leave your child unattended but this is the only one we found that allowed some hands free bath time when they were very small which you can see that others enjoy also with their uploaded pictures. We too, got some great pictures, that we would have never been able to get with a regular tub. Now that they are almost 2 years old they are getting to use the deep end of the tub and have been very happy with our purchase and would recommend this tub to everyone.

BEST! I tried EVERYTHING! I love this highchair. I have a larger 13 month old (27lbs!) and it really fit him very well. I tried all types of highchairs and they were not fitting him. I literally took him to Babies R Us and sat him in every chair they have- nothing was suiting him. Additionally, this highchair was EASY EASY to put together- just a few min and all done! It did not have the typical cheap parts that most highchairs have. Being my 3rd baby, I really appreciated how easy this is to clean. With the materials used, it should remain looking brand new (no fabric to machine wash and fade over time). Im thrilled with the look and how little space it takes up. It rolls around like a dream on my hardwoods (not made for carpet). I HIGHLY suggest this chair. As he grows, I can easily roll him up to the kitchen table without using the removable tray. And... the look is very easy on the eyes!Charleston Mom, SC

stop wet cribs with this purchase! These diapers are the ONLY diapers I have found that keep my girls beds dry at night! They are also great for traveling long diastances in the car. I have never had one leak. Amazing product and highly recommend for babies that sleep long hours at night. My daughter sleep over 12 hours at night - NO LEAKS!!!!

Not what I expected I was rather disappointed with this when I received it. It's not easy to find a red changing pad cover, so I was excited to find this on Amazon. Well, the material is not as soft as I had expected and is somewhat thin. Not that big of a deal. However, what I hate about it is there are two small holes in the center of it for those dumb changing pad straps to fit through. Who actually straps in their baby when changing them? So, now you can see the white changing pad through those two holes and to the average Joe it looks like I have an old ratty changing pad cover that I should replace. Oh well.

BEST VALUE/QUALITY I got a whole bunch of those Tupperware tumblers handed down when my oldest son was a baby. After 3 boys there weren't many left and no lids left so I got on here to buy more. I couldn't believe the cost of those Tupperware cups! These cups were cheap and are BPA free and they were pretty much the same cups. My daughter was 10months when we got these and she loves them too.

Wonderful All Purpose Stroller I struggled to find the perfect stroller for our six month old daughter. We live in the country, and wanted something to take on walks, but also something for city errands. Initally I was worried about the City being too heavy, but it has been really great. It has all the features you need: adjustable handlebars (great for tall husband), several baskets for your stuff, easy harness, and amazing canopy!It is really an all-purpose, all terrain stroller, since it is super easy to open/close, is a breeze to push and steer, and it has a great recline for the little one. City curbs and cobblestone are a snap for us now with the big wheels. I wish I would have known about Baby Jogger sooner. It has been well worth the money, you will be so happy for the investment!!

Not as tough as you think - awesome carrier! After reading the reviews on this baby wrap I decided to give it a try and I was prepared to have to get the hang of it before I really caught on and could put the whole thing together without assistance - however after getting it in the mail and reading the instructions - I successfully put it on without assistance the first time and I use it everyday. I have a 2 1/2 week old and she loves being in the wrap. I would highly recommend this product to any new mother breastfeeding (or not too)!!!

Great Baby Carrier I enjoy using this product for working around the house or taking a walk around the block with my baby. The product does take getting used when it comes to positioning the baby inside, but doesn't all baby carriers?! I can't wait to try the other carrying positions when he gets older. The company also has good customer service and was able to resolve an issue I had in the order.
