Back to Sleep: BabyBjorn Cradle

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

Back to Sleep week, which is focused on safe and healthy sleep for baby. Today’s post featured the BabyBjorn Cradle, which is a must-have for postpartum mamas, minimalist parents, eco-friendly moms and dads, and small space living, too. Plus, head to the bottom of the post to enter for a chance to win one! 

There are so many reasons the BabyBjorn Cradle has become a favorite of parents everywhere (it’s no surprise, since we love their bouncers too!). With full mesh walls, the cradle allows you to see baby, and also allows for full air flow – which is significant in safe sleep for baby. There are no no electronics, buttons, vibrations, batteries, or plugs, but there is a gentle springy movement that parents can utilize for some soothing. This is perfect for parents who like to keep technology at bay when it comes to babies, or families that keep technology out of the bedrooms.

As our sleep expert, The Safety Mom says, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that baby shares a room with parents for a year; the BabyBjorn cradle is a fantastic way to keep baby in the parents bedroom and sleep safely. Unlike a lot of bassinets that you have to stop using when the baby is around 3 months the Baby Bjorn cradle can be used until he baby is 6 months (or 18 lbs or baby can sit up unassisted). Plus, it is a beautifully designed piece that will fit into any home design (which is great when you want to have it in your master bedroom). It is overall a safe design (not just beautiful) with no loose parts, mesh walls and stable legs.

Another reason we love this cradle is that it only weighs 13 pounds so parents (even those mamas that are recovering or postpartum) can easily move it around the house to keep a close eye on baby while they sleep. It’s super helpful to have a safe space for baby to sleep which you can easily move around the house! If you’re planning on having a c-section, the BabyBjorn cradle is going to be a dream for you, because you can keep baby close to the bed, and move baby around the house to sleep easily.

Back to Sleep: Crane Humidifier

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

Back to Sleep week is focused on safe and healthy sleep for baby. Today’s post features the Crane Drop Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifier which is a must-have for infants, clean-living, and health conscious families.

We featured Crane in last year’s Back to Sleep event also – and this year, it is no surprise that they are back, as we think they are an essential item for any nursery.  Not only is the Crane Drop Humidifier a nursery must-have, but their sleek style (and choice of many colors) will blend in to any nursery!

Plus, for all the eco-conscious families, Crane humidifiers are all BPA-free and energy efficient, using ultrasonic technology to add soothing moisture to the air. Crane’s Drop Humidifier is whisper quiet and operates on a low power consumption, more energy efficient than a household light bulb (up to 45W).

So, why is it essential to have a Crane Humidifier in your nursery? Humidifiers are especially important for Newborns because they are Obligate Nasal Breathers, breathing only through their tiny noses for their first 4 – 6 months. Any congestion can make breathing, feeding, and sleeping incredibly difficult for your little one.

Plus, the Crane Humidifier will grow with your child; even toddlers and kids need humidifiers! Many pediatricians recommend the use of a humidifier as a safe, non medicated, all natural alternative to help relieve congestion from the common cold and flu instead of potentially harmful over-the-counter cough and cold medicine.

Where in the nursery should you put the humidifier? Our Sleep Expert, The Safety Mom Says…

Back to Sleep: Snuza Pico Wearable Monitor

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

Back to Sleep week is focused on safe and healthy sleep for baby. Today’s post featured the Snuza Pico wearable monitor, which is a must-have for tech-oriented parents, parents of newborns, parents of multiples, parents of toddlers, and great for traveling.

We have highlighted another amazing Snuza product – the Hero –  in our past Back to Sleep event. The Snuza Pico wearable monitor is an advanced multi-sensor smart device for infants and children. For the first year of life, the Snuza Pico wearable monitor provides peace-of-mind movement monitoring in addition to sleep analytics, skin temperature and body position monitoring. After one year of age, the movement monitoring function may be turned off, allowing caregivers to primarily monitor their child’s sleep patterns, which has been proven to be a critical aspect of healthy brain development.

The monitor attaches to baby’s diaper and connects via Bluetooth to a smartphone app. The Pico uses a patented contactless sensor, meaning it does not need to be in direct contact with the baby’s skin, which reduces false alarms caused by loss of contact. If there is no abdominal movement detected after 15 seconds, the device will gently vibrate in an effort to rouse the child awake. After 20 seconds of no abdominal movement, the Pico will alarm.

The Snuza Pico wearable monitor is a fantastic investment in safe sleep, because it provides parents with a peace of mind so that everyone in the family can rest easy. Plus, while you can utilize the movement monitoring function for up to one year, you can turn that function off after your baby is over a year and simply monitor your child’s sleep patterns. By monitoring your child’s sleep patterns with the Snuza Pico, it will allow for you to figure out which sleep habits work best for your family, letting everyone rest easier.

The Snuza Pico is available at Best Buy, BabiesRUs.com, Target.com, and Amazon

New Mom Review: HALO Bassinest

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

New mama, Theresa, who is Gugu Guru’s Head of Design was offered the HALO Bassinest for review. Overall, she was absolutely thrilled with the product.  In this review, she lists the pros and cons from her experience.  We also gave HALO the opportunity to respond to the two cons from Theresa’s review and were pleased to discover that HALO has listened to their customers and is offering a new Bassinest stand this year to address customers’ opinions over the base size and weight.

Halo Bassinest

Pro: TONS of pockets
The HALO Bassinest swivel sleeper has three pockets for tons of storage (three pockets!) Diapers, wipes, diaper cream, burp clothes – if you have a c-section or are just exhausted in the middle of the night, everything is right at your finger tips.

Pro: Lots of cool features
This bassinet has everything you could want from music, vibration and a breast feeding timer all right at the ready for parents. Again this is a huge c section plus!

Pro: C section approved
The fact that the HALO Bassinest swivel sleeper comes right up to the side of your bed is a huge help for nursing and also after a c-section. I had to move minimally to get to my baby in the middle of the night. The swivel of the bassinet was the biggest help because I didn’t have to slide myself down the bed and pass the bassinet to get up. With the swivel, I can easily slide the bassinet (and baby) away from the bed so I could get on and off the bed with ease while healing.

Pro: Mesh/collapsing side
Even though most bassinets have mesh sides the HALO Bassinest has really large openings so it is very easy to see your baby while you are lying down. I also loved the collapsible side so I could touch my baby or put the pacifier in his mouth without even sitting up.

Pro: Room for baby to grow
I love how big the basket is that holds the baby. I happen to have a big baby (born almost 9 pounds) and as he has grown over the past three months, he still has plenty of room and sleeps comfortably as he wiggles around. My baby will get lots of future use in his HALO!

Halo Bassinest

Con: BIG base
This bassinet is not one that you can easily move from room to room during the day because the base is so large. It is hard to get it through doorways so you have to strictly use this bedside. (If you put it together in another room and then want to move it into your bedroom, it is a little tricky.)

HALO’s Response: The base is large, heavy and not designed to be moved. This keeps it firmly planted next to the bed where is used most of the time, but the unique swivel and glide give it movement. However, HALO recognized that parents want more mobility and is introducing a Bassinest stand toward the end of 2017. This will enable parents move the Bassinest throughout the house as some babies just sleep better in it, and parents would love to be able to provide that same safe sleep space when they move out of the bedroom. 

Con: Additional Light needed (c-section specific)
The bassinet comes with two light sources. The first light source points to the floor and is very small. So if you are looking for some light in the dark to breastfeed, etc, this light won’t really help post c-section. There is a second light that shines in on the baby. I never felt the need to use this light because with the baby in such close proximity to me I felt I could check on him without the light.

HALO’s Response: With regard to the light there are actually two lights on the model: one which illuminates the floor so you don’t have to turn on a light if you are getting out of bed, and it was positioned that way so you wouldn’t disturb the baby. The other nightlight on the soothing center serves as a nightlight, and we believe many moms use this to gently lift baby out of the Bassinest for nursing. The amount of lighting needed likely varies from consumer to consumer, but these two features offer lighting close to the Bassinest to help mom and baby and should not disturb anyone else in the room.

Project4: Help 4Moms Bring the mamaRoo to Every NICU

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

It’s no surprise that babies and parents alike love the 4Moms mamaRoo; it is one of the most popular registry items on Gugu Guru’s database! But, did you also know that when you buy a mamaRoo4 from 4Moms, you can help a baby in the NICU? It’s true. Through Project 4, 4% of mamaRoo4 sales (from July – December) will be donated to Project Sweet Peas, a non-profit that helps NICU babies.

Over 350 maternity wards, NICUs, and pediatric units across the U.S. use the mamaRoo to comfort newborns. Doctors and nurses have found it transformational in caring for preemies and babies with severe conditions. As Debbie Deedy-Dazzi, from the NICU at Lawrence & Memorial Hospital in Connecticut says, “The mamaRoo is invaluable to our tiniest of patients. The mamaRoo snuggles our preemies as if they were being held by their own mom or dad.”

For the last three years, Project Sweet Peas has worked closely with 4moms to provide the mamaRoo to hospitals and families in need across the country.  Doctors and nurses have found the mamaRoo to be transformational in caring for preemies and babies with severe conditions.  Through the program, 4Moms has been able to donate mamaRoos to families who may not be able to afford one, making the transition from hospital to home easier. As a mama to twins in the NICU stated, “Very few things comforted me and my NICU baby, except for the mamaRoo; it was his happy place. There should be mamaRoo in every room in every NICU around the world.”

How can you help? It’s simple. Go to the 4Moms website, and purchase your new 4Moms mamaRoo4 before December, 2017 – 4% of your purchase will go towards Project Sweet Peas and help a NICU family get a mamaRoo for themselves.

Baby Shusher: Despite popular belief, babies don’t actually need quiet to fall asleep!

New Mom Review: 4moms moxi + car seat

by Gugu Guru 1 Comment

Theresa – Gugu Guru’s head of design and new mommy to adorable Robbie – was so excited to be able to try out the moxi stroller and self-installing car seat from 4moms.  If you don’t know 4moms, we think of them as Apple computer-like innovators for parents.  4moms’ gear is thoughtfully designed with some of the coolest tech around. Read what Theresa calls out as the pros and cons for the stroller and car seat below (and although Theresa received these products for review from 4moms, all opinions are her own.)

moxi stroller ($699.99)

 

Pro: Just Downright Cool Technology
This carriage has a cell phone charger port – totally handy! It will also tell you how fast you are going, distance, etc. I really love that the stroller features lights if you are out walking at dusk (trying to get baby to snooze) – super neat!

Pro: Self Charging! (most of the time)
The carriage has a generator in it so it does not require batteries for any of its awesome features! (Caveat: the generator will only last if the carriage is used frequently, if not, you have to plug it in and charge it to use all its cool technology.)

Pro: Easy to Open and Close
It was so easy to open and close the carriage for travel.

Con: Little Pouch for Belongings
The little pouch for your belongings is open. I didn’t totally love this because if my phone or wallet is in it I felt uncomfortable walking away from the carriage, even a little, while out in public. Editor’s note: 4moms really designed this to make your phone easily accessible, hence no zipper.

Con: Converting The Seat To Accommodate An Older Child
The infant carrier and the regular seat for older baby are two separate pieces (separate from the carriage base itself). Even though the regular seat is not hard to attach, it has to be completely converted to work. So if you have two kids, one older one infant, you can only use the carriage exclusively for one or the other in a single outing.  Editors note:  We spoke to 4moms about this and they said that their test parents have found this process to be very easy – clicking/unclicking two belts on the backside of the seat and turning the seat around. The three configurations are meant to grow with the child – so normally, you wouldn’t be switching back and forth regularly for two different children – although you certainly could.

 

Self-Installing Car Seat ($499.99)

Pro: Extra AWESOME Technology
The 4moms app will not only self-install the car seat as promised, it will also adjust positioning and tension as your baby grows. It will let you know if carrier is in correctly and it will also alert you if you leave the carrier (and baby) in the car. Pretty cool! Plus the software that runs the car seat base can regularly be updated with new features and functionality right through your smartphone.

Pro: Infant Fit
The car seat comes with an additional infant insert to be used for 4-11 pounds and really helps baby sit comfortably and securely – especially when baby is on the smaller side. Also, the bottom buckle is more rigid, verses just a fabric piece, so it makes it very easy to get baby in the seat (without them sitting on it.)

Con: Requires Eight (8) D Batteries
All the the extra technology that you get with the 4moms app will only work with the addition of the batteries in the base. When baby was only 6 weeks, the batteries died. (Who has time to run outside and change batteries in the carseat once a month?!) Editor’s Note: According to 4moms, this may have been an issue in some of the first units, but today, that issue has been resolved. By downloading the new update (version 4.16),  the battery life will be significantly extended. The battery life should last the life cycle of one baby in the car seat. New baby, new batteries.

Con: A Couple Technology Fails
A couple of times the base alerted that the car seat carrier was not in correctly when it was. One of the times we were an hour from home and listened to it ding and false alarm the whole way home. We couldn’t fix this until we could take it out and reinstall which we couldn’t do being an hour away – a little annoying. Editor’s Note: We spoke to 4moms and they said if the carrier is not detected, as described, the issue can often be resolved just by lifting the carrier out, and placing it back in the base. Typically, a re-installation of the base is not needed. 4moms is launching another software update that will further improve the user experience and reduce the occurrence of false alarms, such as this one.

Babywearing Essential: Baby K’tan Nautical Print

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

-Sponsored Post-

It’s no secret that we’re big fans of babywearing, and when it comes to carriers, we can’t say enough great things about Baby K’tan. With its patented double-loop design, the Baby K’tan slips on like a t-shirt – no fuss, from the baby or yourself – the K’tan makes babywearing as simple as can be. K’tan recently released their print collection, and the nautical print carrier is your perfect summer accessory.

The Baby K’tan nautical print (and all of their prints) is made of a 100% natural cotton patterned with beautiful vibrant prints. The carrier’s unique one-way stretch and soft fabric offer you and your little a wonderfully cozy hold. The Baby K’tan is known for their ergonomic positioning for healthy infant development and comfort for parents, as it evenly distributes weight across back and shoulders.

The Baby K’tan can be used from 8 to 35 pounds, and comes with a sash, so you can utilize all 6 possible babywearing positions. We love the Baby K’tan, especially for c-section mamas, as you can wear your infant high above your c-section incision. Plus the material is super soft, and it could not be easier to put on, and take off, the carrier. And, most importantly, it’s washable!

You can find Baby K’tan on their website, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.

Thank you to Baby K’tan for making this sponsored post possible.

Softsie Clothing:  People love to give baby clothing for baby shower gifts, but why give the same old onesies and hats when you can upgrade to Softsie? Softsie creates unique, well-designed, high-quality apparel and accessories – organically infused to gently and safely comfort and care for the skin of all infants and toddlers, while also bringing ease and style to every family. Infused into the Softsie Footie are Aloe Vera, Jojoba Oil, and Vitamin E. These ingredients are infused into our fabric through a capsulation process.

Plus, they come in modern patterns and colors, so they’ll be super adorable for all the photos we know the new parents will take. Softsie also has swaddle blankets and hats, so make a little bundle of Softsie gifts for your next shower!
Baby Merlin’s Magic Sleepsuit: Did you know that there’s an easy way to transition baby from the swaddle? It’s called Baby Merlin’s Magic Sleepsuit and plenty of parents can tell you, it is a lifesaver – whether it is warm or cold outside! The Magic Sleepsuit is designed for babies who are ready to transition from the swaddle, yet still need that cozy and contained feeling to aid in their sleep. Made with soft, comforting materials, the Magic Sleepsuit will give your baby the sense of security and warmth they need to sleep well through the night. This is a wonderful piece of baby gear for traveling during the Spring and summer because it keeps baby feeling secure wherever they are sleeping. Baby can wear a simple onesie underneath during the warmer months and they will happily and comfortably sleep well!
Snuza Pico Monitor: If you’re gifting a new parent with a baby monitor, you’re absolutely going to want to pick up the Snuza Pico Monitor. The Snuza Pico Movement Monitor is unlike anything else on the market; while some baby movement monitors are fitted beneath the baby’s mattress, Snuza monitors attach directly to a baby’s diaper and alarms if no abdominal movement is detected. This early detection provided by Snuza monitors offers a solution to help bring peace of mind to parents. The App, which is Apple and Android compatible, also monitors a baby’s abdominal movement, skin temperature, sleeping position (side, face-down, face up) and fall detector. It also features an on/off button and alerts parents if they become out of range. The Pico unit can be accessed by multiple smartphones so that parents and/or caregivers can monitor multiple Pico units from one or more smartphones. Snuza wearable movement monitors are made with hypo-allergenic, medical grade plastics and do not send or receive radio frequency signals. There are NO wires, cords, cables or sensor pads that could potentially harm baby. Weighing only 1oz, these monitors are the lightest of their kind on the market today.

Baby K’tan Swaddle Blankets: Any new parent can tell you that there’s nothing as important as a good swaddle blanket; swaddling makes the baby feel safe, secure, and sleep better (we hope!). Baby K’tan, a leader in the baby wearing world, has released their newborn swaddle and toddler blankets, and we think these make a perfect baby shower gift. Made of an innovative breathable stretch fabric, the Baby K’tan Newborn Swaddle & Toddler blanket  provides continuous airflow so that baby doesn’t overheat while sleeping. As your little one grows, your swaddle can be used as the perfect sized toddler blanket, nursing cover and so much more. Plus, they are gender neutral colors, so they make wonderful gifts for baby showers when the gender is still unknown. Most importantly, they are machine washable, so baby can spit up over and over again!

 

Thank you to Baby K’tan, Snuza, Smockingbird, Crane USA, Softsie, and Baby Merlin for making this sponsored post possible.

Product Discovery: Angelcare Movement Monitor

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

-Sponsored Post-

As a new parent, you want to have every opportunity to watch your little one sleep; however, life is busy, and that’s just not possible. Luckily, Angelcare has just released a new movement monitor which is sure to bring peace to many parents’ mind! Angelcare, the worldwide leader in movement monitoring, continues to pk-callout the baby monitoring corner with their new Angelcare AC417 Video Movement Monitor with Wireless Pad. Angelcare is known for their monitors which are designed to sense baby’s slightest movements and sound an alarm if no movement is detected after 20 seconds. However, the new Video Movement Monitor with Wireless Pad takes the act of monitoring to a whole new, and very modern, level.

The new wireless sensor pad goes under the crib mattress and can track subtle movements (like breathing, rolling and kicking) that audio and video monitors can’t detect. This means parents can truly monitor all of baby’s slightest movements. This touchscreen monitor from Angelcare offers the only wireless movement sensor pad in the market and features new data analytics that sense and track baby’s activity level. Imagine being able to track every move your baby makes; very reassuring for a new parent! Furthermore, with this insight into baby’s activity level during sleep, parents are better able to adapt routines and respond to baby’s needs.

The sleek design of the new Angelcare monitor will surely fit into any home decor style. In the nursery, the wireless sensor pad is accompanied by a low profile, wall-mountable video camera with wide-angle lens and color-changing room temperature display. The new parent unit features a large touchscreen display (4.3” inches) which enables parents to check on the baby in real time, and track baby’s activity level with up to two months of data stored. Very cool!

This Angelcare Video Movement Monitor is expandable for up to 4 cameras (sold separately) and has night vision, too. It features adjustable movement sensitivity levels, and you can even tell room temperature display – so baby won’t get too hot or too cold. The wide angle lens has digital zoom, and two way talk means you can sing to baby from another room in the house. This monitor is a must-have item for any new, or seasoned, parent. It’s more than just a baby monitor; this Angelcare Video Movement Monitor is a peace of mind for parents, as it not only monitors every movement of baby’s, but tracks and records all data as well. You can purchase this Angelcare monitor at Target online.
