ok, now this convo has turned more from chairs to bf'ing (sorry!), but I just had to chime back in to say --- I must be the weirdo here, b/c I *still* used my boppy and a glider even with a much ol...

i agree with bullyproofvest. i strongly prefer having arms on a chair for bf'ing. while i may not love the look of our glider, for as much time as I spend in it breastfeeding each day (and...

I disagree -- I think whoever gave you the gift would have wanted you to have something that you'd actually use and enjoy. So if that means returning for a refund, then do it. The fact that it wo...

I completely agree with the general sentiment of letting kids be kids, and that that means getting down in the dirt sometimes. That said, as the parent of a food allergic child, I am...

when our daughter was in the crawling stage, and the falling down all the time stage, we picked up a couple of cheap yoga mats from Target. they're great! soft, but easy to roll up ...

I'm with Libberator. It's easy as an adult to poo-poo everything Barbie and wish your daughter wouldn't get into Barbies. But then I remember how much I loved playing with them as a kid - they we...

Man, I am starting to feel like a real party pooper with my comments on this site lately, but yeah - I would not have needed or wanted one of these. Or a decorative outlet cover. Or special towel...

Goo Be Gone is also a handy product for removing that.

Okay, I'm sorry if this isn't the most helpful answer, but.... I'd vote for storing baby-safe items in the dresser, and just letting her explore. This may mean stooping ...

Used one on Sanibel Island in Florida. I was just all about traveling as hands-free as possible, with as little gear to lug around as we could get away with. So I put my baby in the Ergo in the a...

Cute, but I've just gone old school and returned to using tin foil for most things (like food on the go). Simple and recyclable. And for stuff stored in the fridge (like leftovers) ...

Cool idea, but I wouldn't have put silk panels on. It's gotta be wipeable or washable. Also, as neat as the hidden changing table feature is, aren't they usually just going to want ...

I agree with cliodog -- we used the evenflo glass bottles, which even though they include the brand name are totally clear (logo and all), so it is not really a noticeable name/logo. ...

Why is it that I am so drawn to bright white rooms that I see online on design blogs and the like, and yet I feel like every room in every apartment that I've ever had which was painted an actual w...

I think it's a cool design and looks nice and would work well with bright accents, like you said. However, as a city dweller (albeit Chicago, not New York), I'm more inclined to fill...

I think it's great. Why not? As for Olivia79's concern -- I'm sure the idea is that a very young child is going to be in there.....i.e., it will pretty much be in there to sleep or have its diape...

Thanks for all of the suggestions! It sounds like based on everyone's experience that I may not need to worry so much about the rain and critters anyway, so that is good news. And since these opt...

Just writing to say that while I do not have that exact Land of Nod dresser, we do have a Land of Nod dresser that we've used as our changing table (I think it's called "Simple), and it has worked ...

Not picutured here, b/c it's not "cute" by any definition, but I truly cannot rave enough about the Acme brand reusable bags that I got at www.reusablebags.com. Picture an old-school...

you know what is even easier to use and gentler on your baby's tush than wipes recipes? plain water! we've been using this method on our cloth wipes for 14 months with no problems.
