I first heard of Water Wipes when my grandson was born. It was the only one suggested as he had medical problems. As a mom, I was skeptical but after having tried these wipes which are saturated with water and less than 1% fruit extract, I can attest to their quality. Not only gentle on the skin, but very strong, which means using less of the product for the job at hand. Water wipes have proved their worth to me.
The size is big enough to do the job, gentle enough to use on your baby's bum, and can be used for the face and other body parts without worry. The packaging is easy to use and has a tab that closes well to keep the wipes moist and ready at a moment's notice. The scent is unscented which is great for those with scent intolerance. We have found our new go-to wipes for all our bodily needs and are spreading the news about how great they are. Other people said something about the price but realistically they are about the same price as what we were already buying.

Isn't this backpack cute? I thought so too. It comes in 7 designs and is available at the links below. This one is great for ages 18 months and above and also has the safety harness leash so when you are out and about your newly walking toddler can have a little freedom while you have the security of knowing they are within a safe range.
I love the backpack idea because I love giving my child something of their own. With this they can carry something to snack on, a drink, and something to play with, not to mention a favored lovey, or change or clothes for when trips take a bit longer then expected.
We also like to call them quite bags for when we are going to appointments filled with items the child only gets on those trips that they look forward too because it is the only time they come out. The size on this is about 9 inches high 7 inches wide and 3 inches front to back.

I was recently able to view Making Babies thanks to Huber Bros. Productions so that I could give my honest opinion of the movie. Both my husband and myself are avid movie viewers. We loved them growing up, our first date was at a movie theater, our children grew up going to movie theaters as a family, and us for date nights, we even worked for a movie theater before, we enjoy seeing movies as often as we can, we even quote movie scenes in daily life when they fit the part.
I viewed this movie on my own and I went through a roller coaster of emotions. It could be my age I happen to be 46 going on 47 but I hit happiness, hope, joy, sadness, excitement, and utter amusement to name a few. This movie deals with real issues of struggling to have a baby before your time runs out and making choices with health insurance, finances, dreams, all while family, friends, and everyone in between is giving you advice on how to do it.
There is humor. I didn't find it gut breaking humor but it is there in a sweet way and sometimes strange way at least to me. I encourage those who are struggling to have a baby to watch this movie as well as those who aren't struggling so they know the other side and what their friends, neighbors, and not so good friends might be going through.
Coming from someone who had an easy time having children it really opened my eyes and I hope it will for you too. It isn't always easy to have children. Sometimes it is a struggle from the very beginning, but can be so worth it.
Is it a chick flick? Yes I guess it is, but if you are trying to get pregnant it is also a couples flick, so fellas give it a chance. By the way you would want to miss the funny scenes with guys in it anyways so go along just for that if not for anything else. See ladies I had you covered. wink wink So I hope you enjoy it as much as I did check out the trailer below and let me know what you think.

In Theaters: March 29th
Directed & Written by: Josh Huber
Starring: Eliza Coupe, Steve Howey, Bob Stephenson, Elizabeth Rodriguez, Ed Begley Jr, and
the late Glenne Headly
Running Time: 86 minutes
Katie and John Kelly (Eliza Coupe and Steve Howey) are ready to settle down and have kids but
five years later, all they have to show for their efforts is a mountain of negative pregnancy tests
and an increasingly elaborate home micro-brewing rig, which John hopes will launch his
company. As they run out of traditional options and their window closing, the couple explores
the daunting world of medical, spiritual, and homeopathic methods to conceive a child. With an
ensemble cast that also includes Bob Stephenson, Elizabeth Rodriguez, Ed Begley Jr., Jon Daly,
and the late Glenne Headly, MAKING BABIES puts a couple through the ringer of modern
infertility treatments and questions whether their marriage will withstand the ultimate test.

Having breastfed 5 children of my own, while encouraging others to try before giving up. I am pro breastfeeding. I do understand that some can not do it for obvious reasons such as taking medication, can't product milk, etc. I also understand those who could breastfeed before and not with their second or vice versa.
I would have loved this electric pump back in the day. I had a hand pump which was hard to use. This one is electric, can do two breasts at a time. Talk about time saving. It also has a massage function. Oh My Goodness. Where was this when I needed it.
There is a big difference from a child suckling and a machine pumping milk, but the massage function makes it more bearable. This is great for new moms, seasoned moms, and those who continue to keep their milk production up to donate their milk to babies in need.
Check out more information below.
A little more detail about pump.
Two-mode Technology After turning on, massage mode will keep 120s, then switch to suction mode. The massage mode acts as a warming-up phase to get breasts ready to initiate milk flow by continuously stimulating the breasts in a rapid pumping rhythm. After that, in suction phase, the pumping rhythm becomes slower to maximize the milk flow.9 Adjustable Suction Levels There are 9 suction levels to adjust, from level 1 to level 9, the suction is rising. Users can choose the most comfortable level and the level mostly fit her baby’s feeding pattern. Moreover, the intelligent breast pump has a memory function which automatically switches to the optimum suction level (current setting) after the massage.Isolated System A hygienic isolated system ensures the milk won’t go backward to tubing or motor and protect the main machine. It also prevents bacteria and mold from breeding and let the baby drink clean and hygienic milk.Measurable Milk Production Moms are not sure about whether the amount of their breast milk is enough for their babies when feeding them. Using Gland breast pumps, you can clearly see how much breast milk you produce with the scale on the bottle. Check out my un-boxing below.

This scarf is awesome will take you from pregnancy, nursing, and even years beyond. This scarf can do it all. It is versatile, can be worn many ways. A few are shown above. This is a great gift idea for a baby shower, new mom, or even just to wear even if you are done having children. This is so nice my 13 year old had no problem modeling it for me.
