The Feel Better Smile #SmilingItForward

I have received information and products from McNeil Consumer Healthcare Division of McNEIL-PPC, Inc., the makers of TYLENOL®. The opinions stated are my own. This is a sponsored post for SheSpeaks.

Tylenol Smiling it Forward

I'm SMILING IT FORWARD™ because last year, my daughter came down with a case of Hand-Foot-Mouth (HFM). Thankfully, my daughter had a very small case and wasn't in too much pain, but I did notice that she was smiling less and whining more. There is nothing you can really do for this painful infliction except give your child lots of snuggles and Infants' Tylenol. 

Tylenol Smiling it Forwards

Although if you look very carefully, you can see the bumps from HFM, but isn't that the cutest "feel better" smile. After days of whining, sleeping, and being super clingy, I got to see this wonderful smile. And when your child has been sick, that is the best smile ever.

The makers of TYLENOL® were so inspired by the “feel better” smiles shared organically by moms across the country online that they’ve teamed up with "How I Met Your Mother" star and mom of two, Alyson Hannigan, to launch the SMILING IT FORWARD™ campaign. Together, they hope to set the power of giving in motion, inviting everyone to share smiles of good health to help children in need.

SMILING IT FORWARD™ makes it easy for people to join the movement. By sharing a photo that makes you smile at SmilingItForward.com, TYLENOL® will make a $1 donation to Children’s Health Fund, helping to ensure a doctor’s visit is always within reach for children in need.

A self-proclaimed TYLENOL® mom, actress Alyson Hannigan, mother of Satyana, 4, and Keeva, 1, knows the importance of seeing her child’s “feel better” smile; the wide-eyed grin that comes after a fever has been reduced or pain has gone away. She joined SMILING IT FORWARD™ to support TYLENOL® in helping to provide high-quality healthcare, like her daughters receive, to children in need.

In addition to sharing photos at SmilingItForward.com, moms can go on the site to view the TYLENOL® Smile Gallery, learn more about Alyson Hannigan and Children’s Health Fund, and receive tips from leading pediatrician, Dr. Tanya Altmann, about keeping families smiling through cold and flu season.

An Eco-Friendly Disposable Diaper {Bambo Nature Diapers Review}

I received the products mentioned below free of charge for review. I receive no other compensation. All opinions are 100% mine own, as always. :)

Bambo Nature Disposable Diaper
Website - Facebook - Twitter

Before I became a mommy, I never worried about chemicals in the products I was using. I never even thought about it. When I had my baby showers, my favorite gift I received were diapers. We were a strictly disposable diaper family. We preferred them because we felt they were easier on-the-go. I started reading a little bit about the effects of chemicals on baby's delicate skin when I was on bed rest. How everything that baby wears should be washed in non-scented laundry detergent before they wear it. Things like that. I never thought something that was designed to go so close to baby's skin could actually hurt them.

The first time I noticed Sweet Pea was allergic to certain types of disposable diapers (also soaps and laundry detergents), we were at my mother-in-law's house. It was the first time I had put a store brand diaper on her sensitive little hiney at home, so when my mother-in-law went to change her, we both became very alarmed at how red her skin was only where the diaper was touching.

Bambo Nature Disposable Diapers Review

Now that I am aware of chemicals in diapers, when Bambo Nature contacted me to test out their eco-friendly, non-toxic diapers, I was actually kind of excited. I had read some other wonderful reviews about them and couldn't wait for my package to arrive.



The first thing I noticed when I opened the package of Bambo Nature disposable diapers were the smell. They don't have one! This is great news because any kind of scents can mean harm causing chemicals that can cause rashes and who knows what else. They have a cute design that even my daughter noticed. They are soft and thin, but they held up to the job- small and large. And the most important thing? No rashes, red spots, or irritation of any kind! That's awesome.

Do you think disposable diapers are more convenient on the go? What are your favorite features of Bambo Nature diapers? How do feel about the harsh chemicals that can be found in baby products?

#TheClueIsInTheBlue Luvs Super Absorbent Leakguards Review

This post is sponsored by Luvs through the SheSpeaks Program. Opinions expressed are 100% my own and have not been influenced in any way.

The Clue Is In The Blue

Have you checked out the new development with Luvs diapers? There is a special blue seal that is on the packaging of Luvs Super Absorbent line at Walmart that has been added to distinguish it from other Luvs diapers. This blue seal makes these Luvs diapers 15% more absorbent than other Luvs!


Original Video - More videos at TinyPic

Now when I was accepted to try the new Luvs, I am not going to lie to you, I was a little nervous because we have tried Luvs in the past and I felt they were a cheaper version of Pampers. PLUS, they caused my daughter to have a little bit of an allergic reaction.

The Clue Is In The Blue

But when I opened the bright purple package of Luvs Super Absorbent Leakguards the first thing I noticed was how much I loved the designs of the new Luvs. I also noticed they had a nice smell but was worried because I felt they were kind of thin. We are potty training, so Sweet Pea only wears diapers at night. So, I can't say how they hold up during the day. But we were very impressed with they held up to her over-active nighttime bladder. She tends to go a lot at night, although I have been working on this with her, I don't think her body is quite ready to go without some kind of nighttime protection. Regular day time pull ups just don't cut it for our needs, but the new Luvs Super Absorbents Leakguards held up to the task and I was pleasantly surprised how well they worked.

What do you think of Luvs at Walmart? Do you have a favorite brand diaper?
