Nanny to Mommy

I was recently introduced to Pearls by Laurel and I am very excited to share their Mother's Bracelet with all of you. I decided to give one to my mom as she doesn't really have any jewelry like this. I thought about getting my mother-in-law one for her soon-to-be 5 grandbabies, but wasn't sure exactly when the newest addition would be born. I fell in love with the Pearls by Laurel Mother's Bracelets as soon as I saw them. I was offered to get a bracelet with 5 stones even though they have bracelets that can go up to 12! The birth stones are made with Swarovski elements as well.

I have always been shy about nursing in public. I have large breasts and I don't want a whole lot of skin showing. It's a personal preference. I would never judge the way someone else chooses to feed their baby, this is just for my body. I know that I SHOULD be able to feed my baby whenever he needs to be fed, including out in public. But the reality is that I don’t want unwelcome attention.

When is a nursing cover not a nursing cover? Answer ... when it's a Boho Mama Breastfeeding Wrap. You can literally wear it straight out of its stylish packaging. It's easy to wash and dry and it keeps its shape. You can carry this wrap in your purse or diaper bag because it folds up really small and does not crease. My sister-in-law is due with her second baby this month and I'm making a breastfeeding care package for her. I have decided to include this beautiful wrap in it.

I have always been a huge fan of the Leapfrog since I was sent my very first product to review through Mommy Parties. Leapfrog products are not just educational, but very entertaining as well. Their newest and hottest product is the LeapFrog LeapTV which is an educational active gaming system. This product is so innovative it is on Amazon's Hot Holiday Toy List of 2014!

I received a complimentary Awesome Blossom Cloth Diaper to provide this review. All opinions are my own.

When I was pregnant with my daughter I received an email about cord blood banking. Then later at a regular OB visit I received a pamphlet. But honestly I just wasn't given enough information. Then I saw a commercial on TV about cord blood banking and how this women saved her older son's life (who had leukemia) because she had saved her younger son's cord blood. I cried and then did more research.
