My son has a "different" spelling, but only because my husband insisted that it was closer to the original Russian. Then again, Nikolay is already a "different" name, though thankfully a traditiona...

We have the IKEA one, which is a slightly simpler version of the Baby Bjoern. And at $1.99 on sale, it couldn't be beat.

Hmm that second one is just a forest ranger... don't get why that would be inappropriate? Maybe Americans don't get what the man is?

Oh my goodness - I want them! There is an excellent likelihood that I used these. Of course, used is an exaggeration - more like looked at / studied them. By the time I was at Yale they were of cou...

Ditto to the previous few comments. Not something I'd put in the "Look!" category.

I love that pattern, too. If anyone is looking for a waaay more affordable one in a similar style, check out this one at Wally World:

When we first found out we were expecting, my husband and I assumed that we would birth in a hospital, though we wanted to labor naturally, and did have some acquaintances who had birthed at non-ho...

We would love to kick out ye olde IKEA Antilop for this! (Or at least, save the Antilop for visitors.)

kdk - your photo sent me back to college, where I read that BERLIN book. Also Middle School, where my 7th grade Biology teacher used a horse femur as a lavatory pass to discourage needless bathroom...

Though we live in Phoenix, Arizona, I can't seem to get enough of blankets. I love the super soft Mod Dots blankie, and think the Mod Dots bedding would go extremely well with #2's bed, regardless ...

I nearly bought the same IKEA bedspread to use in my son's nursery!

Point well taken! Kinda like when someone does a wonky lines version of a classic quilt block, then patents it!

Isn't that from the Amy Butler book "In Stitches?" I remember seeing something along those lines in there.

I would make one myself, but I don't see myself spending that much on a cover. I considered making a cover for the regular pack n' play our son slept in next to our bed, but never got around to it....

I love this lamp ... it looks great in our multicolor nursery!
