Fast Mile Car Sunshade Sock Review


This car sun shade sock is a very interesting concept that I had never seen or thought of before. You just roll it down over your door frame and it fits tight like a sock or a glove. You can still roll your window down and don't have to worry about the sun damaging your child's eyes or making them super hot. It helps keep them cool and safe back there.

I admit this is a strange concept for me and I may not use it on a daily basis but I will definitely use it for my daughter around town (especially in the summer - Charleston heat can be intense!) or on road trips when she will be in the car for a long period of time. It also came with a bag to keep the car sun shade socks in when you are not using them.

These are currently out of stock on Amazon but here is the link so you can check back.

Baltic Amber Baby Teething Bracelet Review


I have a two year old so I am well versed in the millions of things out there you can use to help with teething. When she turned six weeks old she started teething (I know, that's early, and it sucked!) so I did some research and decided to get her a Baltic Amber teething necklace from a local store. Baltic Amber is absolutely amazing.

Why is Baltic Amber such a rage with parents these days? The natural benefits from succinic acid when it is released into the body from body heat. 

Recent research has found the following to be benefits from succinic acid:
  • natural pain reliever
  • anti-inflammatory
  • improves immunity
  • stimulates thyroid glands to help reduce drooling
  • soothes red inflamed cheeks
I noticed on the days when my daughter didn't wear her Baltic Amber she drooled a whole lot more and was way fussier than the days when I made sure to keep it on her. So when I was offered the opportunity to receive and review a Baltic Amber bracelet from Amber Crown I was super excited. In addition to being used as a bracelet you could always put it on baby's ankle and put a sock on in case you are worried about them trying to chew on it if it's on their wrist. It is 5.9 inches long so it should fit most wrists.

This bracelet is double knotted between each bead so if the baby were to break it (they shouldn't because it is very sturdy and well made!) only one bead will break off and you won't have a huge mess or the concern of multiple choking hazards.

The company also offers a 100 day money back guarantee which gives you plenty of time to see if you think it works or not for your teething baby. If you are interested in purchasing this product then head on over to Amazon and you can purchase one for $11.97

Pacify Mama Teething Necklace and Bangle Review


For a breastfeeding mama teething necklaces become your newest fashion piece. It's like a staple item in your wardrobe. It gives your little something to gnaw on while in your arms when teeth are coming in and hurt. It also gives them something to play with while actively nursing which hopefully keeps them from shoving fingers in your mouth, up your nose, in your eyes, or keeps them from tweaking (if you don't know what they are tweaking then consider yourself lucky because it is not something you want done to you..).

So I was pretty excited when given the opportunity to review the new Pacify Mama teething necklace and bracelet combo. I have multiple teething necklaces because it is nice to have different style and color choices.

Some great things you should know about the product are that it is:

  • 100% Food Grade Silicone
    • BPA, metal, and latex free
  • Dishwasher safe (how awesome is that?!)
  • Breakaway clasp
    • this is for safety purposes
  • a 16" necklace and one size fits most bangle
  • double knotted between beads
    • this is also for safety purposes (if the necklace breaks only one bead breaks off)
If you are interested in this product (which I think you really should consider because it is pretty awesome) then head on over to Amazon to purchase it for $17.99 while it's on sale!

Armful of Love Breastfeeding Shield Review


I received two different breastfeeding shield cases from Armful of Love. I cannot say enough amazing things about this product. It is absolutely game changing for a breastfeeding mother dealing with latch issues.

When my daughter was born she could not latch to the breast. For three months we battled latch issues and we either used a shield so she could latch or I exclusively pumped and gave her a bottle until one day she finally just learned and it clicked. It was hell until that time occurred. I cannot tell you how difficult it was keeping track of the nipple shields. I lost so many I cannot even count. I was also frustrated because I felt like I couldn't keep them sanitary enough. I would wrap them in a napkin, put in a ziploc bag, or just toss them in the diaper bag. That was so frustrating..I had to keep pacifier wipes on hand at all times so I could clean them prior to use since they were just tossed in the diaper bag. I always said I wish I had a case specifically created for my nipple shield.

And BAM. Here they are! Amful of Love has two different colors available on Amazon. You can choose pink or blue and they will keep your shields in place and clean. How amazing is that? I cannot recommend this product enough to a mother who needs to use a shield. You seriously want this product in your diaper bag!! You need it!

Haul A Baby Wrap Review


If you are in the market for a comfortable new wrap that is also affordable then let me recommend the Haul A Baby wrap! It actually has FOUR features which is pretty awesome for that price tag on Amazon. It's good for babies (or toddlers!) up to 35 pounds which is a pretty good weight for baby wearing! That's quite an impressive weight for a wrap.

  1. Baby Wrap
  2. Ring Sling Carrier
  3. Pregnancy Support Wrap
  4. Postpartum Belly Wrap

My friend did a video review of this on YouTube with a baby doll (her little was sleeping!) so you can see how easy it is to use here. If you do a quick YouTube search of Haul A Baby you can also find tutorials on how to make it a ring sling very easily.

Forgive my photos in this blog please. My friend was having issues with technology allowing her to send me videos and photos so I had her directly upload to my YouTube account and then I just took pictures of the video on my computer screen. Not the greatest, I know, but you get the idea! Especially if you go and watch the video because then you will see it crystal clear!

Nimnyk Diaper Bag Review


I ordered this diaper bag from Nimnyk on Amazon. I adore the owl print - it's absolutely precious. Pink and green are two of my favorite colors thanks to my sorority (Delta Zeta!!) so naturally I love the two colors together.

I really like the extra pockets it has (five on the outside and then a couple of spacers on the inside). It also has a clear bag which would be great for a cloth diapering mama to use for a wet bag or just for dirty / wet clothes when you're out and an accident occurs! My other favorite feature is the adjustable strap which my first diaper bag lacked. This is perfect when multiple people will be carrying the bag because everyone prefers different lengths on straps.

Bugaby Nursing Cover








I received this nursing cover by Bugaby which is available for purchase on Amazon. I am planning to give it to a new mother who wants to breastfeed and also wants to use a nursing cover as a baby shower gift but I am impressed with it thus far. 


It came with a pouch to keep it in which is super handy. Once your done you can just roll it up, put it in the pouch, and toss in the diaper bag. How simple is that?!

It also has an adjustable strap on the back that keeps the cover from blowing off in the wind if you're nursing outside. Some babies like to play with the covers also so it should keep them from accidentally pulling it off as well.

Another huge plus for me is the pocket. I have never seen a pocket on a nursing cover before but this is perfect to keep a small snack, burp cloth, or cell phone in.

Armful of Love Car Seat Cover



I received this beautiful Armful of Love car seat cover in a grey and white chevron print. I loved it because it's gender neutral. This works great for both baby and daddy/grandpa if they don't want to carry around an infant carrier with a hot pink cover on it. Ha!

It's made from muslin bamboo. I'm not sure if you've ever seen or felt muslin bamboo before but it is WONDERFUL for baby products (blankets specifically). It is so soft and very breathable. I live in the South so we definitely need something that isn't too heavy because you don't want baby to suffocate and sweat like under the minky covers.

I definitely recommend this product for any parents to be..it would make a wonderful gift for a friend or family member as well. The last great thing about this product? They are offering a LIFETIME WARRANTY! You just can't beat that! Seriously!
