fab find

tired... of finding wadded-up diapers in your bag or opening your wipe case to find it (argh!) empty again? try... Diapees &Wipees, pretty, compact pouches that stash two to four diapers and a travel pack of wipes.

From $14.99 at diapeesandwipees.com.

There's a reason for swaddling: It stymies the startle reflex, allowing babies to sleep better. Swaddleaze is a swaddler/ sleep sack that will make even the most determined little Houdini have a hard time breaking free. Beyond a basic sleep sack, it has an extra "swaddling wing" that wraps around and attaches with Velcro™ in the back. So, even if baby's arms break free, he's still "wearing" his blanket. His arms can be tucked in or left out, and unlike single-size swaddlers, this one comes in preemie, newborn, and infant models, so you can wean from swaddling gradually. Available in a rainbow of gorgeous colors in the softest microfleece imaginable.

Even the simplest tasks (enjoying a quick shower or sandwich, for instance) get complicated once there's a tiny person in the picture. The Floor Nanny™ cushion provides a spot for your baby to rest and play safely while you get things done (with your vigilant supervision, of course). Padded sides offer gentle head support when he's on his back, or provide the perfect "tummy time" prop. When he's a little older, the Floor Nanny is a safe spot to practice sitting. Choose one of four available cotton prints (spot-clean only), or send in your own fabric and they'll make you a custom Floor Nanny.
