I had a similar size IKEA piece for the changing table but the drawers were too small for diapers - we did the wall mounted shelf off to the side - we got these white laminate shelves and brackets ...

This is a fun idea... but really I'm just commenting to say how pleased I am to see the first person singular used in this post. SOOOO not a fan of the imperial-sounding Apartment Therapy "we." T...

I can't believe I'm the first to mention Goodnight Gorilla. It's only mostly wordless (the zookeeper says goodnight to each of the animals) but you have to narrate the rest yourself. It's one of ...

Oh my god this is one of my favorite kids' rooms I've ever seen. I wish it was MY room, forget the kids! The furnishings are so outside my style zone I would never think that I wanted, for exampl...

This is very cute but an armless rocker doesn't seem all that practical, at least not for rocking/nursing to sleep...

I love this! I have often thought of doing this but I have always been too lazy - seeing the template with Thank You stamp makes it seem more manageable somehow!

I have heard that "Brain, Child" is a good parenting mag - anybody read that one?

My mother put a lock of hair from my first haircut in a little glassine envelope in my baby book, along with before and after photos.

Personally I think anything color scheme but pink can be gender neutral. We did our nursery in robin's egg blue with orange and yellow as the accent colors and it looks great for a boy but I think...

We use snappis too and there are no issues with the boy bits getting squished! I have 3 and they are all going strong after 1 year's use.

There should be a problem-solving webpage with schematic diagrams of all the different bathtub faucet configurations and then a list of which faucet covers fit with each kind!

I read reviews that said a lot of people had trouble fitting the Moby over their faucets so I went with the Flo spout cover from Boon, and I love it! It's cool looking and it makes the water come ...

@morganong - you are setting up quite a straw-parent there to rail against, aren't you? Suddenly parents whose children have late potty-training issues are conflated with extended breastfeeding (u...

Actually, most child safety orgs say using crib bumpers (the traditional way) is unsafe - including American Academy of Pediatrics, Health Canada, National Center for Health and Safety in Child Car...

Happy Birthday Austin! What a handsome kid he is!
