Do You Need Some Denim Therapy?

Want to save a buck AND look fabulous?  With simple fabric and an ingenious idea, Denim Therapy has done it.  You send them your jeans, they fix ‘em up to fit your growing belly, then they send them back to  you.  After your little one is born, and you have gotten back to your prepregnancy weight, they will restore them back to the jean’s original fabulousness.

Great idea because:

Denim Therapy

1.  save money

2.  look amazing

3.  motivation to not go back for another round of ice cream

The Cradle: The lifestyle destination for pregnancy and new parenthood
Having a new baby can be overwhelming! There is always some little thing I forget to purchase when I have a new one. When I had my first I had so many questions about what was happening to my body, what labor was going to be like, and did I really have to wear my maternity clothes home.

I came across this site and think it should be the go-to place for any mama on the journey to snuggling with a new little one. It is simply The Cradle. It is very well put together, user friendly, and full of helpful info.

A Newborn Can Sleep Through the Night

I am one who believes breast is best, however, formula isn’t evil (my second was a formula baby). Then I got a coupon in the mail (for our baby #4) for a new formula. I read it with a “what the hell” expression while mumbling to myself. My hubby was close by and made some crack about me going crazy (at least I didn’t answer myself, right?). We had a discussion about this new formula.

At this point, I’m sure you are wondering what IS it?? It is made by Enfamil (a trusted brand and the makers of Nutramigen we used for #2). It is called Restfull. It claims (a) “a natural way to help keep your baby feeling satisfied”, and (b) “thickens gently in baby’s tummy and digest slowly”.

I am all for a baby getting a good night sleep (and mama too!). The temptation is there with baby #4 who doesn’t sleep well. However, how is this natural Enfamil? Aren’t you trying to trick a baby’s system? It just seems so counterintuitive, and perhaps a little selfish.

What are your thoughts? For and against comments gladly welcomed!
