The Miss Gigi-Mae Tether System is a Momma Gotta Have. If you’ve ever reached around to grab a toy off the floor of your car while driving or picked your child’s sippy cup off a grimy restaurant floor, you’ll understand the need for this tether system.

This mom-invented product is designed to attach to a carseat, stroller or high chair. Simply attach baby’s toys or sippy cup to the four retractable clips to keep them off the floor and safely in reach. (You can view a demo of this product here. )

There are so many different breast pump models on the market, and deciding between them can seem confusing. So many factors influence breast pump purchases. In my opinion, the biggest factors are budget and frequency of use. Every mother needs to weigh those factors before picking the pump that fits her lifestyle. Someone who rarely pumps may be content with a manual option or a single-pump. More frequent users generally want automatic, dual breastpumps. While hospital-grade breastpumps can cost hundreds of dollars, you can find high-quality occasional-use models for well-under $100.

I’m positively giddy. I don’t think I’ve ever felt this way about a few yards of fabric before. If I had to commit to just one baby sling, I think it would be my new Zolowear Ring Sling in Solstice. I bought it from Along for the Ride and used my coupon code–and I could not be more pleased with my new purchase!
The pattern is chic, the stitching is impeccable, and the design is as comfortable as could be.
A good sling is an essential–it is a hip …

Sure, babies are super cute, but Mom deserves some swag, too. Gliders are a wonderful way to show mom you appreciate her. Pregnant moms, nursing moms, and moms who just need a break will love a glider.
Newborns are soothed by rocking and many babies nurse better with a little motion. Gliders are also a serene retreat for the adults in the family.

I am an obsessive comparison shopper. I research size, weight, price, convenience, style, and features–locating the best deals for you!
In this case, I was looking for a light weight playard that could hold my ever-growing giant baby…but what if your baby, or your apartment, is smaller and you want a compact playard? What if you want a full-featured playard that matches your decor? What if you are on a budget and what you really want is the cheapest (but still safe) option?
Mamanista has you covered. Below are my picks for …

Even parents who practice attachment-style parenting occasionally need a safe place to place baby when tending to a hot stove, traveling, or visiting child-free friends.
Playards keep baby secure during those times. Which playard to buy depends on your intended use.
If you are in a tiny city apartment, you may want to save space by using the playard as a bassinet as well as a playpen and traveling bed. Many parents at least want the option of traveling with the playard, which means you need something lightweight without compromising safety, quality, …

These are not your mama’s diaper bags, these are your Mamanista’s diaper bags!
I LOVE my Asian-style brocade diaper bag, but spring is in the air and so are the sales. So, I am shopping around for another fun design.
Before you became mommy, you did not have just one purse, did you? So why would you carry around just one diaper bag for 2+ years?
I’m browsing BabyAge.com and PoshTots.com right now. I’m posting my Baby Age favorites first below.
At Baby Age, check out these super chic designs by Hottie Tottie…which one …

How many items of baby gear can a mama say she uses every day? The Arm’s Reach Co-Sleeper is the only thing in the house I can say I use more often than the Safer Bather.
Recent studies suggest that babies sleep more safely in the same room with mama. Placing your baby to sleep in your room helps reduce the risk of SIDS and it also makes life more convenient for the parents. If you are nursing or recovering from a C-section, the Co-Sleeper is a must.
For families that would …
