A Waste of Money The only good thing about this is the night light function. The waves and water sound horrible and my son never liked listening to the music or the heartbeat sound.

VERY SPACIOUS BAG. I LOVE IT. THIS BAG WAS GIVEN TO ME AS A GIFT AND I WAS ABLE TO PUT LIKE 3 OUTFITS FOR THE BABY AND ALL HIS AMMENITIES IN THERE AND STILL HAVE SPACE. IT IS SUCH A GREAT BAG TO HAVE. IT HAS TONS OF SPACE. YOU WOULD ABSOLUTELY NOT BE DISAPPOINTED IN THIS BAG. IT IS A GREAT INVESTMENT.

Don't waste your money I bought this gate to keep my 9 mos old in the nursery for when I have to do little errands around the house. The way the notches are on the gate makes it nearly impossible to get a tight fit on our doorway. I have an older house so the doorway may not be standard. I have purchased another gate the evenflow crosstown soft portable travel gate to see if that will be any better.

This item is great My wife and I are expecting a little one, and it is so great to be able to sit at home and listen to my baby's heartbeat, it is also wonderful to know that i can talk to the little one and they are able to listen to me and get to know daddy's voice as well as mommy. I love sitting in the evening with the belly speakers and singing to our little one.

Hole too small This toilet seat would be great (portable, nicely padded) IF the hole were big enough for a toddler to successfully pee IN the toilet. My daughter makes a mess every time she uses this toilet seat. It's just something about the way it's designed, because we don't have this problem when we use our non-portable potty seat. This seat was a big disappointment.

Best bottles for fussy babies Our doctor changed formulas 4 times, but our little one was still very uncomfortable due to the gas. A friend suggested trying the bottles, and within a short time, she seemed less fussy. We quickly switched to the Dr. Brown bottle exclusively and feeding time became much easier on her. We tried another brand of bottles one last time just to see the difference, and the gas seemed much worse with just one bottle. Even with the extra work involved, we will only use these bottles in the future.

Great It really does everything it says. I like that you can use batteries or outlet. Soothing sounds worked better for me then my baby.

Pooh Designs Stained Babies Clothes! I tried these a two years ago with my daughter and hated them because they stained our onsies. I thought I would try them again (hoping they had improved)with our baby boy and am very disappointed again. I'm kind of a clean freak and the brownish orange stains on the onsies are really dingy looking. We ran out of onsies a few weeks ago and put him to bed with just the sleeper over his diaper and it is RUINED! I have soaked it for days in Oxi Clean washed it eight times and is still not coming out.As far as leaks go they don't work overnight.

Best Stroller for Infants When we found out we were having triplets, we like all other multiple parents bought a stroller to accommodate all the babies. The stroller is so large that we can not even fit it into a mini van. We have to purchase a large SUV or Full size van to go anywhere.We bought the Latch Lock carriers from baby trend and we just love them. When we saw the stroller that went along with them. We decided to order the Double Snap N Go.The stroller comes all put together, you just need to snap on the wheels. Then comes the fun part. The stroller is made for many different brands of carriers. You find the carrier you are using in the instruction manual and then you remove bars or rearrange them to fit your carrier. It is very simple and all the parts are well labeled.The carriers just snap on to the top, just like when you snap them into the base that is in the car. There is a strap that goes over the lower half of the carrier to prevent it from rocking or coming off the stroller. It is great because you do not have to unsnap your baby from the car seat and them snap them into the stroller. No need to transfer toys and blankets from car seat to stroller. What a time saver.It is very light weight and easy to set up. I pull it out of the trunk and just snap and lock it into place. I then just snap the carriers in place and we are off. It takes up the same amount of room that a normal single travel system would take up.For all you shoppers out there. I took the stroller into a women's clothing store and was able to easily navigate the store. The stroller handles very well. The front wheels are adjustable. You can set them for straight ahead or let them rotate.Because we have 3 babies, we easily become a tourist attraction. The stroller handles so well that I was able to move swiftly and accurately through spectators and display racks.We love the Double Snap N Go so much that we have asked for the Single Snap N Go for our Baby Shower.

Great gate!! I really like this gate, it was easy to install and it looks great. I highly recommend it but I also have metal door frames so I don't know if this would dent the wood in a regular door frame. Though I think a small dent would be better than a screw hole...

pretty good... I liked the kit however, for less money you can buy just the hardcover book. You're not really getting anything extra by buying the kit except a dvd thats not all that helpful (same info in book) and ice cube like trays (you can just use regular trays). Very easy recipes and easy to get started. Overall good product

Perfect for Rough Terrain I purchased this stroller for my grandchild. We live on a long gravel drive and this stroller is easy to push over the gravel. Once I get to the road, its light weight makes it easy to push up and down the hills. I did purchase an additional sun visor since the one on it did not shade him completely on very sunny days. The only other thing I would like it to have is a window to see him while we are moving, rather than having to lean around the front to check on him. It turns in a very small space so on rainy days we can actually take a stroll in the house and on the porch. The cup holder is great for the cell phone, and the basket underneath is roomy. Its easy to fold for travel also.

Great quality - good prices at dreamtime baby I don't beleive anyone will dispute that the barnyard bedding set is just beautiful, and can be used for a boy or a girl.I absolutely fell in love with it at babies r us, and kept going back to it over and over again. I found one place online "dreamtimebaby.com", which has a wider selection that babies 'r us, and unless the price has changed since my purchase, had a much reasonable prices for all items in this collection.If you love this line, try dreamtime first.

Grandmother of Triplets These diapers are wonderful. My daughter and her husband have eleven months old triplets, two boys and one girl. We use these diapers because the soft elastic does not mark their little thighs and they absorb the wetness without irritating their delicate skin.Thank you.Grandma Mare

I love pampers I love using pampers. I have 2 kids and they both use the same size diaper. The only thing that I wish that amazon offered is the Pampers night time. I believe that night time has better absorbent than this one. But I'd still prefer this one over the Huggies diapers. My kids doesn't get a rash as often with Pampers than Huggies. I also love the way it smells like baby powder.

So glad I got it! I got this for my grandson because the arms are just not what they used to be. I can carry him for quite a while and I don't have to worry that my arms will give out. He enjoys being with me while I do things around the house. I had one with his sister and they are just so handy. With both of them, when they saw me coming towards them with it, their little faces would light up because they knew they were be close to Granny!

Easy to use Great recipes, nice dvd instructions and useful baby food freezer trays. It's very easy. I would have given 5 stars if there were recipes for making fresh baby food meat instead of just fruits and veggies.

just what i wanted i was looking for a stylish bag that suits the purpose. and this is it. i can get about 4 diapers, towel, wipes, 2 change of clothes, baby cream. and theres still empty pockets. i'm still bf so i dont know how it would go with bottles and fomula, but i'm sure it wont be a problem. i love the colors, its a unisex bag, whicj i like , so i can use it with next baby.

klbumb This chair is great, especially for a larger child. Our son is five-months old and is already 18 lbs. and 27 inches. Other chairs on the market fit him to a tee right now, so we opted for this one that will allow for growth. Husband, an engineer, thought this chair was designed better than the others. We also like that it folds up to a small size.Tray fits closely and securely to him when the chair is not reclined. The fully reclined positioner is nice now too since he cannot sit up on his own.I like the cloverlette and have found it easy to remove. Unfortunately, this cover is not machine washable, but that's not an issue for me (I like that the "plether" can be wiped down).The only negative for me is that there isn't a bar on the back to dry bib and cloth.

We are returning this gate This gate is incredibly difficult to install and is not very sturdy. After three hours of drilling, measuring, etc. my husband and I and have decided to return this item. We followed every step of the directions and ended up with a gate that was not sturdy. Even with the stabilizer foot I did not get the impression that the gate would hold up to the wear and tear of a soon to be walking baby. Additionally, the gate is not very easy to open and close. Unless you are the engineering type, I would suggest buying another gate for your wide space.

Stink, Stink and More Stink I was using a Diaper Genie and it began to take on the odor of the diapers after 7 months so I purchased the Diaper Champ as its replacement. I give this product 2 stars: 1 for its large size and capacity and 1 for the ability to use standard garbage bags. Other than that it began to stink worse than the Genie after the second day. Due to the fact that the diapers just sit in the bottom of the pail without being sealed off, the pail emits an awful odor. It was the worst purchase I made.
0negative
Nice, simple pail This is exactly what I was looking for : an old fashioned diaper pail with no liners or refills to purchase. It's a good size and any kind of deodorizer should fit in the holder.That said, it isn't the color shown in the photo. It's definitely tan and white rather than white a blue. Still a good product for the price though.

Buy this gate I researched all the reviews on gates, and decided on this one. It had a positive response from others, so I decided to spend the extra money. This is a great gate. I had to buy the extentions, but the assembly is very easy! Just make sure to use the wrench provided to tighten the top part of the gate together. The foot pedal is easy, yet your young children won't be able to open it. My dogs and cats even can't get past the gate. I was suprised to see that my cats don't try to jump over it. Highly recommend!

bed rail My daughter has been using this since the day I gave it to her. She can now put her one-year-old in her own twin bed and not worry about her falling out. She has been using the same kind of bed rail on her three-year-old's bed for a couple of years now and just loves it.

Disappointing Performance We purchased this product to use on an upcoming Disney trip. After waiting several weeks for delivery, we found that the product's performance was very disappointing. There are essentially two basic features of the product. First, it will keep track of the distance between the base unit and the wrist band, and alert you when the distance exceeds your setting. This feature works OK, within the maximum distance capability of the product which is not all that far. The second basic feature is the `Find' feature. You can place the unit in `Find' mode and it is supposed to be able to indicate which direction you should walk to find the wrist band. This feature just plain does not work. There is no other way to describe it. We found that the base unit will point in just about any direction seeming to have no idea where the wrist band is located. I would not want to rely on this product to locate a small child in the crowds at Disney World, or anywhere else. We called Blue Span to see if we were operating the product correctly, and this was confirmed. They showed us how to `calibrate' the compass, which we did, but this made no difference to the product's performance. We spent a lot of money on this product and it's add-ons, over $350.00, and feel we have received very little value.

Simple, and works fine. My one year old has been sleeping in this pack n play at grandma & grandpa's since he was 3 weeks old. The bassinet attachment works well for infants and is easy to take out when they start sitting or pulling up. It's a good thing to have around for safety (pulling up on the oven at dinnertime, etc.) and a simple design. I like that I didn't have to pay hundreds of dollars extras for the attachments that no one I know uses (changing station, etc.). Seems pretty sturdy. The only concern I had was the strong chemical smell when we first unpacked it, but we let it air out before using, and it went away pretty quickly. Every new baby item we've bought seems to have that smell though, especially the carseats. Overall it's a good product and we're happy.

This must be the most comfortable way for baby! Why put your newborn in a hard plastic seat, when you can have him/her lie on a virtual pillow? My kitchen sink is one of those not evenly split; it has a tiny section on one side and extra wide on the other and this bather fits perfectly into it. My baby has never cried (not even the first time)in this. Why should he? He's covered in warm water, has his head propped up just right, and is on a soft pillow. The really great thing about this bather is that it becomes heavy when wet, so it won't slide around. But when you squeeze some of the water out, it instantly becomes light again. Simply brilliant! Don't even consider any of the others - this one is perfect!!!

No comparison to Earth's Best or other brands - WORST wipes I've used! I've spent the last 4 years with one of my children being in diapers and have tried numerous brands of diapers and wipes. After dealing with several yeast infections with my 6 month old, I decided to go more "natural" with diapers and wipes, so I purchased seventh generation diapers and wipes to see if I saw an improvement. I have seen an improvement with his rash, so happy on that front and will be sticking with "natural" diapers and wipes. I love the seventh generation diapers, they work just as well as the major brands, however the wipes are thin, small, dry, smell terrible, and have a low count per package. I also tried Earth's Best wipes for a comparison and these were hands down the winner. Earth's Best were thick, cloth like, larger, wetter, no strange smell, and have 10 wipes per pack more. Great diapers, but I will not purchase seventh generation wipes again.

I Love the flexablilty of the seat We bought this for our daughter, who is now 5. It has been wonderful!! My 3 year old son is now using it. We just ordered another for the second bathroom in our house. The best part is this seat fits, and we mean really fits, on all sized toilet seats. We move frequently, and never realized how many different sizes and shapes toilet seats actually come in. BRAVO Baby Bjorn!!

Don't waste the money It's 3am in the morning and needless to say, this is NOT the time that I would normally choose to be on the computer writing an on-line review. In fact, I've never written one of these reviews before, but I used them to research products when I was registering and I had to take the time to write one now and try to warn others. I have been using the Avent bottles since my son was born 9 weeks ago and I have never been so dissatisfied with a product! These bottles LEAK! They are awful. I just had a nightmare 3am feeding (actually all 3am feedings are nightmares, but this one was even worse than usual!). The bottle leaked all over my son, me, my floor, my table. I had to interrupt my son's feeding several times to wash him off and try to stop the flow of milk onto my floor- I even had to change his bib 3 times because it had soaked through. These leaks seem to happen all the time- I have actually thrown out one or two bottles, hoping that there was a strange, abnormal "defect" with one of the bottles or the nipple, etc, but NO- these bottles are just leaking! Don't waste the time or money- try something else.

!!!!!!! Money Better Spent On Another Product !!!!! Well I bought the First Years battery/corded powered brest pump for my girlfriend after reading the reviews on this web site. We have a manual powered pump, yet I decided to buy a powered one, because her arms often get tired after a short period of time pumping. I bought this product because of the price, and the one our two good reviews I read on this site. This pump was a waste of money. It hurts her while pumping, it's loud, the disc is made of a soft material as opposed to a hard material. This makes it hard to apply and stay put - it bends a lot... you get what you pay for - you want a cheap product - you'll get cheap quality. I will spend the rest of my life trying to get First Years back for this one - just purely based off of principle...

you dont have to be worried about the space that you use with the bigger strollers!! best thing to get any place!!!. I just got this product 3 weeks ago and I am so glad with it, it's easy to bring in and out to the car, isn't heavy at all, fast to move and is very confortable for my baby, she's very happy!!!!

SLING IS GREAT FEATURE BUT TUB LEAKS The only good thing about this tub is the sling. I used this tub for only two months before it started leaking. At first it was sporadic, then it was constant. I don't know why because I never did anything different. So I called Safety First and they said they get several phone calls every day about this problem. First they made me think the leaking was my fault b/c I wasn't opening the tub all the way. When I told them the tub was open all the way and leaking, they arranged for an exchange (you remove and send back the suction cups and drain plug to the company and they send you a new tub). Since I'm not willing to try again with the 4-in-1 (my son loves bathtime and I hate to rush him through it because his tub is running out of water), they're sending me a different tub that doesn't close up for storage. Ever since the leaking started, I've been using the sling in the big tub and my baby is having a blast. The sling is the only good thing about this product. If you're willing to spend [money]for the sling, then buy this product. If you expect a competent tub, then don't. In my opinion, Safety First should sell the sling separately and work on a new model that doesn't leak.

HORRIBLE We bought these for our 9 month old son, who has severe hemophilia. We have only used them a week and they are so stretched out that they will not stay on his legs. We would like a refund, but can't figure out how to contact the company or at least we would like to try another pair. He needs the knee pads for his knees, and I feel like we just wasted 20.00.

Beware Love California baby products. However, this product burns baby. Just thought I'd warn other parents out there. I have used this in the past on my other children whose rashes weren't as bad. My poor newborn was in serious pain from this so maybe they changed their formula? Should contain a warning label. I'm off to buy some of my trusty old Triple Paste!

Get extra membranes for your Medela pump! These spare membranes are a must if you are using a breast pump. They are so small it's easy to lose one, especially when cleaning all the breastpump and bottle parts. So buys extras. They don't cost much and are worth it in terms of convenience.

Terrrible! Buy Baby Enstein First!!! I was so excited to buy this toy for my little one. It was the worst contruction ever built! The parts did not fit together properly. There are too many toys on it that they are on top of each other...there are even a few toys that do not make any sense...they do not work!I immediately took this back to the store and bought the Baby Enstein saucer. I enjoy it as does my baby.

By Far the Best Diaper Rash Ointment We tried a bunch of other diaper rash ointments, but none of them seemed to really help. Some even seemed to make the rash worse. With the Boudreaux's however, there was a huge difference after the just the first use. Won't be using those other ones again.

Not worth it-way too small for my boy. The guard on this seat is WAY too small for my 2.5yr old boy. I'm sure this would work fine for a girl, though.

Worst diapers EVER!!!!!!!! These diapers literally FALL APART at night. Even with my son who has a pretty servere case of urine reflux (not all his urine fliters out) and these diapers decingrate(sp) This morning I spend almost 30 minutes trying to clean off the little gel balls of the diaper material off my son and changing table!! So if you have a baby that can sleep through the night and you don't want to spend 30 minutes at the changing station, spend a couple extra dollars and buy the pampers extra protection, or HUGGIES!!!

Great idea; poor execution I used this toy because it was something easy to travel with. We were taking the baby on a week-long trip and wanted to make sure to have a toy that would keep him entertained. The toy was definitely amusing to him. He loved the colors and the toys that dangled from the bar. It was compact enough and lightweight enough that I could throw it in the suitcase. But like many other readers have described, there's nothing to hold the bar in place. The bar and the plastic piece easily pop out. The purpose of the toy was to entertain my son safely while I gathered needed items for the day. Unfortunately, I felt like with this toy, it was inappropriate to have the baby out of my sight for even seconds.I wanted to love this toy, but I just didn't.

It's awful This monitor is awful, you can barely see the picture because its so dark and warbled looking, its not in color and the reception is not good. The screen loses the picture a lot and the sound is delayed. I returned it and bought one made by Summer and it was cheaper and works great. Would NOT recommend this product.

Wonderful seat! This is a great carseat for a decent price! I bought this seat for my 2 yr old daughter last fall. I had a Evenflo Triumph and we were going to be going on a plane trip and didn't want to lug the heavy seat around....this seat is nice and light! My daughter loves it and was totally comfortable on the first 5 hr flight and the second 6 hour flight. We even used it in the terminal as a place for her to sit! I have had no problems installing it securely either in the airplane or in any of our cars, with or without latch. It does not budge not one inch and doesn't seem to be top heavy if installed correctly as some other consumers have stated. I do agree that it is a pain if you have to take the cover off to wash, but its no big deal. We love this seat!

Too flimsy for me Obviously many others really like this product but I just didn't like it. It is flimsy and is not represented well by the stock photograph. I'd like to post a photo but I can't show how soft it is because I would have to set it on something which makes it look rigid. Basically, I was expecting something that my daughter could color on and set her juice on. As flimsy as this is there is no was this is possible.

Wish I had gotten this one first This is the 3rd potty seat we've tried - others failed because the cup in front was not tall enough for a little boy, no back support for him to sit there for a while, etc. I wish we had gotten this one first - don't be fooled by it's simple design and the extra money. You're going to save more than that by just heading straight to the one that works. This one was also much easier to clean than the other ones.

Alternative to ice packs. We purchased this to preserve baby food and milk during short drives and day trips into the city. We love the fact that we do not have purchase separate ice packs. The whole bag goes inside your freezer. You just take it out when your ready and the contents inside remain cool. We can't attest that it remains cool for 12hrs like the packaging states, but we've carried it around in the city for a good 8hrs and the contents are still cold. Only draw back is that if you have two baby bottles, there is no room for other things. Otherwise, it's a good product.

Good for infants I have already gotten my money out of this product. I use it in the stroller, car seat, etc. It is especially good for smaller babies (mine was a month early). And it has a side for warmer weather and a side for colder weather (just now getting to the point where I can test the cold weather side). I would recommend this product if your baby cannot support their head and it flops.

Why do they make this thing? I purchased this item after having a tough time getting my daughter comfortable in her bassinet and reading success stories posted on this site. Yet when the item arrived there are huge stickers all over it warning parents to not let their child sleep on the product. I was so worried that I never used it and ended up getting rid of it. On the positive side, it is nice and soft and looked comfy!

Great stroller Stroller has been very effective. The only issue I have is that my older child constantly steps on the brakes when she gets on the "jump seat". The "jump seat" also slides back and forth especially when you don't want it to, I wish it locked into place. Otherwise a great stroller for the money and I like that I can navigate shopping isles with it and pop it in and out of my trunk with relative ease.

Worth the money! After buying a couple of potty seats that were much less expensive and a potty chair that played music for my 27mo. old son, I finally gave up and bought this one. I am very happy with it, and my son takes great pleasure in the fact that he can easily put it on and take it off all by himself. It doesn't slip around, and the built in splash guard is perfect. He can't take it off and lose it somewhere in the house like he did with his potty seat's splash guard, and the edges are smooth so he doesn't scratch himself on it when trying to sit down. Also, the potty seat was too small for him by the time he was 2. (He is a bit big for his age, but not chubby or anything.) Since it doesn't have any cracks for the mess to settle into, it's easy to wipe clean when needed.I also like the fact that it's just plain white with black trim since I am using it in the guest bathroom. I bought a little hook that you stick on with adhesive tape and put it on the side of the toilet tank to hang the seat on. It works perfectly, the seat is out of the way when it's not in use, and my son can easily reach it when he needs to use it!I am glad I spent the extra $$, I should have listened to the reviews I read and saved myself the trouble of buying and returning the others!

Pampers Baby Dry Newborn Size These work great, I have been using them for my baby boy who was born 7 lbs and is now 10 lbs. The only time we have leaks is when we dont change him at every feeding.The only drawback of these pampers is they dont have the wetness strip. That being said after 2 months of diaper changes I can tell without the strip when he is wet.

Good Idea - Poor Execution We bought this for our now 22 month old. He didn't really care for it, but our almost 3 month old son loves it. Unfortunately, when he bats or grabs onto the toys the whole bar tips over! We tried putting it into the crib and latching the velcro onto the bars, but it's just a little too short to latch both sides. So now we're stuck with a toy that baby loves, but requires someone to sit there and hold it in place. It's driving me insane!

Expensive compared to other brands, but don't leak I have used disposable drop-in liners from multiple stores (Wally-World, the bullseye store, & various drugstores) and find that they all work just as fine as these Playtex ones do, but at half the price. I like that the Playtex liners are thinner feeling, meaning the liner collapses better inside the bottle when baby is drinking...but even with the others feeling like a thicker plastic, they work as well. Playtex, come down in price and you'll get 5 stars instead of only 4.

The ONLY thing that works.... I have two children now, and I wish this item had been available when my older daughter was born. I have tried everything to keep my babies' heads from slumping over in the car, and nothing worked 100% of the time. This however does. It is one of the best things I have ever purchased for my child and it's very inexpensive.

DON'T BUY THIS GATE!!!!! This is the worst gate I've ever seen. Big safety hazard. It is so flimsy even after installed properly and securely. My husband is an engineer and everything possible was tried. It also can be opened by just leaning on it. Tell me this is not a big safety problem. Also, if you have nails (what woman doesn't) you cannot open this gate due to the latch design but this doesn't matter because once again, just lean on it and it opens. I did read the reviews before I bought this but this gate was the only one wide enough even with two add on panels to fit the space between our kitchen and family room because we have a big step down. Should have listened because now I have to patch up all the holes in my wall and the banister. Just returned this with the add on panels at Babies R Us today and Evenflo is going to get a call from me tomorrow regarding the safety hazards. This gate deserves zero stars but I had had to give it something to submit the review.

Working Mom's Breast-Friend I am a full time working mom. In the beginning I pumped in the conference room restroom of my small office. It was always hit or miss on wether someone would use the conference room while I was in the restroom, hence extremely uncomfortable. I had a hard time letting down, and an over all hard time pumping.I purchased the vehicle adapter and couldn't be happier! It does pump much faster than the AC adapter, but I thought it worked out well. I let down faster, and was finshed pumping faster. You have the option with the Pump-in-Style to adjust the suction, so that may counter act the speed. Plus you are in the privacy and security of your own vehicle. You can listen to music to help relax your self. You don't have to worry about people overhearing the churning of the pump.My vehicle adapter recently fell apart however, but I think it was turn to the frequency of use. I can't imagine them being design for every day use. Regardelss, I am purchasing another adapter, because I am back to the conference room bathroom and again struggling with the pump!

Fits.....but barely. Too BIG. With Adjustments? Perfect. The size charts never really work for me. Pre-pregnancy I was 137 lbs and a size 2 (ish) smaller at times. But I am 6ft tall----very lean. So I bought the SMALL. I happen to be carrying smaller than most. BUT I have scoliosis and back pain...and also had pressure and achiness when walking or standing for long periods so thought to give this a try. Straight out the box I had to hook it on the second tightest hook...but that was a bit loose for me still..and the tighest hook is around 3 inches away and woudl be too tight at this point (will get there soon though as the betl stretches out.) I think my plan of cutting off the first notch and re-attaching it in the middle of the next two hook sets will work. From what I see...the petite belt woudl have worked best. I am now 24weeks. Have gained 8 lbs total....but am still small. I guess it will fit well by month 7, 8 or 9?It has INDEED allowed me to walk a bit more now (as I do LIKE my long walks!) and to get on my elliptical without the crazy pressure down below...so the purchase was worth it for me!NOTE TO MANUFACTURER: Make the notches (hooks) closer together!

My Son's Choice We have 3 different potties at our house, and when given a choice, my 2.5 year old son always chooses this one. I find the size very adequate for him, my son is 35 lbs and 42 inches talll, so he is certainly not small. It took a little time to teach him how to "tuck his willie" behind the splash guard, but now that he has gotten that down, he has no splashes. It did take a while for him to figure it out though.Improvement areas: either make the doors easier to open on the side, or just eliminate them. Also, the drawer sometimes comes out, so it would be nice to have a latch or something on it so it doesn't sneak out while a child is on the potty.

Excellent, you'll love it! We used this blanket 1-2 times per week all summer. It's a great blanket. Never felt any dampness from the grass. Holds up well to spills and other baby mishaps. It's a good size for 2 people but since we're two parents and a baby, we purchased an additional one and place them side by side. Also very easy to fold and carry. We get asked all the time where we purchased this blanket.

Satisfied, but there are shortcomings I bought this for communication with my mother who needs help walking and with most of her activities. Walkie talkies didn't work because she would forget what she had to do to communicate from her end. With this unit, for her, it's totally hands free. I can place her unit anywhere she is and take the "parent" unit wherever I am. If she needs something, all she needs to do is speak. If I want to talk with her, I just press the talk button. Transmissions are clear and static-free. So far, it's worked flawlessly. We live in a large, fourteen room house and the units work everywhere and at the greatest distance. I've also used the parent unit successfully while in the yard.The units do have some shortcomings. 1) For some reason, only one set of batteries is included. And, they only hold a charge for a few hours use. I keep the "Baby" unit plugged in and use rechargeable batteries for the "Parent" unit. These go through batteries very quickly, so for me rechargeables are the only way to go. 2) The low battery signal is VERY loud and literally wakes up the whole house. 3) As others have reported, there is an annoying crackle when the parent unit picks up a signal from the baby unit. This is loud enough to keep all but the soundest sleepers awake.But, all in all, I am satisfied. The units give me peace of mind and I don't have to check on my mother as often as before and she can get help as soon as she needs it.Hopefully, the maker is working on an "improved" model which I would buy if available.

After trying the big three in diapers, Pampers comes in last! I've been using Amazon Mom for a while now and I love the service. I've also been trying out various types of diapers since my little guy was born. We brought home Pampers from the hospital and they seemed to be just fine. Since then, we've used Huggies, Kirkland (Costco) brand, and Luvs, too. And, honestly, I didn't have a problem with any of those three. I stopped buying the Costco brand when Amazon.com started beating their price with the Amazon Mom program.I've had a huge box of Pampers sitting in my closet for almost a month and since we just ran out of the last shipment, I finally opened these up. I've been using them for a week and I am thoroughly disappointed in these diapers. They feel and look great, but my baby has leaked each time I've put him down in these. EACH TIME. Granted, he is a bigger guy and drinks 10-12 ounces a meal now, but come on. Even during a two hour nap he wakes up in wet clothing and yet another sheet change for me. And we simply didn't experience this with any other diaper we've tried. I can't explain it, but I'm so frustrated that we've had to change him twice as often and are burning through this box of diapers. Pampers are the most expensive diapers out there and they have just been nothing but a pain. We stopped attempting to use these at night and have been using Huggies Overnights with great success.After this box is used up we're going back to Luvs or Huggies. I'm going to change my Subscription right now. :(

Fun ... but a pain! Our daughter loves her Cozy Cruiser, which we use as a trailer but not as a jogging stroller ... fortunately, however, she wasn't around for the two hours it took her pitiful parents to put this thing together! The instructions are solely picture-based and are extremely vague - we had some pieces in and out 4 or more times. The mechanism which connects the trailer to the bike is poorly designed - you could easily use three people just to attach the bike to the trailer - one to support the bike, one to support the trailer bar and one to hook the connector to the bike - but usually there's only one parent available during the day so you have to fumble around trying to attach it. We're also a little concerned with the durability of the connection. Obviously the designers thought you'd only hook it up once, then leave it in your garage ... well, we live in a townhouse with no garage and a small patio so the bike & trailer have to come inside every night and be disconnected ... not too convenient. Once assembled, though, a great product which allows parent and child a lot of fun and freedom.

DO NOT BUY!!! According to a former nation safety council member and approved CHP child seat inspector, this is NOT approved to use with a child seat. Do not buy this!! After our car seat inspection we returned this; better safe than sorry.

Gross nipples! I was so excited when I got these in the mail, because my daughter hasn't been happy with a single nipple yet. I thought these would do the trick, but she cannot latch onto them properly. She is exclusively bottlefed, so she doesn't open her mouth up very wide like a breastfed baby would. I give these nipples a 1 star because they are just plain NASTY! I don't know what they made these out of, or what they put on them, but they smell terrible! Like..chicken bouillon or something..pretty gross. I probably wouldn't use these even if my baby liked them, just because of how bad they stink.

Extremely disappointed in this product Our daughter had experienced a series of ear infections this winter, so we were excited to read about the potential of this product online (I believe it was on Dr. Sears' site). According to the instructions, before you use the EarCheck, you have to put it through an initial verification test, presumably to confirm that the product is functioning properly prior to using on your child. Well, despite following the instructions exactly and trying about ten different times, our EarCheck failed the verification test and ended up going straight back to Amazon. Needless to say, our high hopes for the EarCheck ended up in complete disappointment and a total waste of time.

Great product I love this stroller. It's nice and compact. It's just what I need for my two year old when I travel. The multi reclining seat is perfect for when my child falls asleep and it's easy to manuever.I am very happy with this product.

Not so wonderful I thought this would be wonderful to keep the wipes warm so as not to shock the bottom of my son at diaper changes. I was mistaken however. The wipes we either dry or soaking wet and never really that warm. Not worth your money if you ask me.

Do not buy from this company It took forever for the crib-Angelina- to get in stock and to arrive once ordered.The crib arrived with 2 headboards and no footboards. I have been on the phone with the company daily for a month. Sometimes the call goes directly into the answer machine which says I should call back during business hours, IT IS. The call has been dropped many times during the wait, which is forever.The company could not or would not give me any information as to when or if my part would be replaced. I was told several times that a supervisor had been notified and would return my call, never happened.I finally called Baby's RUS and they agreed to pick up the crib and refund my money.This company-Storkcraft- has the very worst customer service of any company I have ever dealt with, in fact they have NO customer service.I would NEVER purchase another item from Storkcraft.

Want my money back!! I've never been a huggies fan, but I like the looks of these diapers and was hoping they'd be a little less perfumed than the pampers diapers we've been using. They LEAK soo bad, even during frequent daytime changes! They haven't made it but maybe 3-4 hours tops at night before they leak soo badly that it wakes up my son. When I feel the "full" diaper it seems that it is only a half step up from the absorbancy of swim diapers. I would have taken these back after the first issues, but I bought them on my way for a camping trip, so i was stuck using them the whole weekend. Now I have a whole box of diapers that I'm stuck with. Don't buy these diapers. I plan on calling huggies today and expressing my unhappiness with their product.It's kind of ironic that the box shows a little lock that says "leak lock"... it has a star above it, maybe the foot note will let me know they were just kidding.Stick with pampers... maybe I'll call them to and ask them to tone down the perfumes, that's my only gripe about their diapers, but maybe I'll get use to that. Waaay easier to put up with than a soaking wet child in the night, who then can't fall back asleep after being rediapered and clothed at 1 in the morning.

Not waterproof I bought this pad thinking it would be waterproof since it is vinyl, not a chance! My daughter has timed her diaper changes such that she has had accidents after the diaper is off. To my surprise the pad leaked thru! What a disappointment, save your money on this one!

So far so great This is a great glider. The seat is comfy and wide enough to accomodate my breast friend pillow. Aside from the fact that one of the snaps is a little off so the arm rest cushion on one side is not snapped on the front (it stays in place just fine), assembly was easy. After only a couple days, my baby threw up all over me and the chair. After cleaning us up, I wiped the cushions off and used fabric cleaner to clean them. You can't even see where it was and it dried quickly enough to be ready for her next feeding. I highly recommend this chair.

HEALTHY FOR BABY, LESS MESS FOR YOU! Playtex sippy cups are BY FAR the BEST sippy cups! I have used others by Gerber and Avent- which both leaked! Playtex will never leave you scrubbing milk/juice stains out of your carpet- or your kids' clothes!The insulated cup keeps fluids fresher longer, which makes this the HEALTHIEST cup delivering optimum nutrients and nutrition for your child! This feature is particularly nice if your child sips a little here and a little there- esp. MILK which spoils quickly.I have bought this cup over and over again- not because it has worn out, but because I want several for our home, grandparents' home, diaper bag, etc.VERY PLEASED WITH THIS PRODUCT!

Smelly and small My favorite wipes were out of stock, so I took a gamble and purchased these. They are awful and I wish I hadn't purchased so many of them. They are very small and also have a terrible scent. Fragrance free does not equal unscented! The texture of them reminds me of pampers wipes except they aren't as "wet" feeling, so if you like pampers wipes you may like these.

Great tub up to 16 lbs! I was surprised to see so many low ratings. I bought this tub at the start and had a 8 lb 12 oz baby that was 21" long at birth. She's now 6 months old, and approaching 18 lbs - I'm only now looking for a new tub. I always used this tub on my counter and only once had a spill. I just pick it up and pour it out afterwards.Definitely a great tub.

Great for my picky baby! My daughter (5 months old) has been exclusively breastfed since she was born because we've been unable to find a bottle that she likes-we tried Dr. Brown, evenflo, Gerber NUK, pretty much every kind we could find, and still no luck. I thought we'd give these a try since the nipple is wide and short (more similar to the "real thing") and she will now take a bottle! In addition to the nipple being good, they have the air reducer (attached to the bottom) that keeps her from getting gassy and helps keep the liquid in the bottle flowing smoothly without bubbling. They come apart easily (into 4 pieces: nipple, bottle, bottom air vent, bottom ring to hold the air vent on) and are a lot easier to clean than some of the other types of bottles we've had that have a lot of smaller pieces. This set comes with 3 bottles and 3 nipples. Overall, I'm VERY satisfied with these and would DEFINITELY recommend these bottles to any nipple picky baby!

Nice cushions, but the tape supplied is useless The doublesided tape that comes with these cushions is absolutely useless. It's near impossible to get the backing off the tape. I don't know if it holds the cushions onto the corners or not, because I just threw mine away and bought my own doublestick tape. I think the cushions work fine, but if you're planning on buying these, plan on buying your own doublestick tape. If I hadn't thrown away the package they came in already, I'd be sending these back. It was a waste of my time and money.

Good gate but be careful with the measurements My wife and I bought this gate and on the box it says that it fits from a 26"-42" opening, but this is a bit misleading. If you have it at the 42" opening there is a gap of about 6" that a small child could either get through, or possibly get themselves stuck in between the posts. So realistically the opening is about 36-38" max. If you buy the extension you are ok but it is a bit expensive but all in all this is a good gate.

I love this one of my favorite shower gifts` I have this blanket in Lavender, pink, blue, and sage to match my daughter's room. Its so soft and beautiful. I bought the lilac/lavender one first on a whim and went back and bought more. I haven't washed them yet so I don't know what they will look like afterwards, but as of now I am very happy. Although I have one complaint about it everytime I go to unrap my daughter or pick the blanket up it shocks me, and it has alot of static. But my daughter doesn't seem to have been shocked and if she has doesn't seem to be bothered by it
