You're exhausted. You ache all over. You haven't slept in what
feels like days. Sounds like you've just completed the Tour de
France or climbed Mount Everest. No, you're "just" a Mom.
With all that is demanded of moms they need as many products as
possible that save them time and energy. The latest and greatest
baby products are created with the overextended mom in mind they
make your life easier - or at least give them one less thing to
worry about!
1. Baby Carriers - More commonly known as "baby slings",
baby carriers are no longer cumbersome pieces of equipment that
are bulky and uncomfortable. Reminiscent of the swaths of fabric
worn by tribal women, today's baby carriers are easy to use and
very comfortable. They make a great alternative to strollers and
are perfect for keeping a baby calm by creating a "womb effect".
And the added bonus is that you can have your hands free to do
other things.
2. Nursing Necklaces - Nursing babies pinch and pull at
mom while they're feeding. Ouch! To avoid this problem opt for a
Nursing Necklaces (also called Breastfeeding Necklaces).
Available in every style imaginable - from bright and colorful
to stylish - every mom can find one that works for her.
3. Baby Sleep Sacks - Tens of thousands of European
parents consider Baby Sleep Sacks a must have - and they're
finally catching on in North America. Essentially "wearable
blankets", sleep sacks provide baby with a safe alternative to
sheets, blankets, and comforters. Because they replace all
three, baby sleep sacks eliminate the risk that your baby may
become entangled under a loose cover.
4. Shopping Cart Covers - Few places are there as many
germs as in shopping carts. In fact one University of Arizona
study found that shopping carts are about as contaminated with
germs as public restrooms. Protect your little one and take a
load off your mind with a shopping cart cover. A good one will
cover the entire cart and can be put in or taken out with one
hand. Available in a variety of fabrics - ranging from babyish
to fashionable - they can also be used in public highchairs,
public strollers and swing sets.
5. Stroller Blankets - The corner of a blanket running
along the ground through mud puddles and slush. Baby's toes or
feet hanging out. Sound familiar? Traditional blankets rarely
work well in strollers because they're the wrong shape a size.
Stroller blankets overcome these problems by creating a cocoon
for your little one to snuggle into.
6. Car Seat Blankets - Like stroller blankets, car seat
blankets keep baby completely covered so mom doesn't need to
worry about baby staying warm. For newborns in a detachable
carrier, they even eliminate the need for a snowsuit because
they are available in such warm materials. As baby grows they
can continue to be used as extra warmth on those really cold
days.
7. Lullaby CDs - Nothing tests a mom's patience more than
a baby that won't sleep. Today's variety of lullaby CDs created
specifically to lull babies to sleep are the perfect solution.
Programmed from specific knowledge about what brings on sleep in
babies, they are a quick and easy solution for the baby that
refuses to fall asleep.
8. Healing Herbal Products - Just like the herbal
remedies that are available for adults, there are also new
products that use the healing power of herbs to soothe and heal
baby. Available in a variety of products, from all natural
lotions and diaper creams to sachets of herbs that do everything
from promote healing to induce sleep.
