What’s New on Gugu: November 6, 2019

by Abby Ludwig Leave a Comment

We have found some excellent new products this week, including a limited edition car seat stroller and a fun feeding accessory. These items will all make great gifts for any new parents-to-be. As we get closer to the end of the year, look out for many new products coming for 2020!

 For a number of our other favorites, please check out our Explore page!

Doona Dusk

Doona Dusk Limited Edition: Exclusive to PishPoshBaby.com, Doona has released their sleekest stroller car seat. Go straight from car to strolling in elegance! Complete with leatherette detailing, a complimentary rain cover and essentials bag, we love the upgraded details!

Grabease Bib

Grabease All Over Bib: This bib is the solution to one of life’s biggest messes – feeding time with a toddler! This oversized bib has an elastic hem, which will easily fit over nearly any highchair. Plus the stain-resistant fabric is easy to pop in the washing machine (or even to rinse in the sink!).

Woven Nook

Woven Nook: One of our favorite ways to accent any nursery is a fun pillow sitting on your glider/rocking chair. Woven Nook has our favorite new collection of high-quality neutral pillow covers and blankets, that will find a great place in any nursery or playroom. Plus they are affordable so you can buy multiple and refresh your décor as needed!

Bokee

bökee: You’re holding a screaming baby and all she wants to do is eat. You rush to make the bottle, but as you reach for the lid you knock it over causing a big spill and instant frustration. Insert the bökee- the first feeding accessory to turn this whole process into a one-handed job! The bökee suctions to any countertop, grips the bottle (or sippy cup/pump products/etc) and allows you the freedom to hold and soothe your little one.

Bella Mama

Bella Mama: Invested in helping all moms-to-be have a healthy pregnancy, Bella Mama is created from evidence-based nutrition info in a month-by-month guide. There are also coaching options, where you can work one-on-one to ensure you’re filling your body with healthy choices.

Please note that these opinions are 100% my own and I have not received any products in exchange for placement in What’s New on Gugu!

What’s New on Gugu: October 25, 2019

by Abby Ludwig Leave a Comment

While we took a brief hiatus due to our Working Mother Registry + Giveaways (if you haven’t checked them out, there are some AWESOME giveaways on our blog), we are back at it in full swing this week for What’s New on Gugu. Instead of highlighting 5 new items this week, I’m back with 10 items that have launched (or will be launching) in the baby market. From strollers to nursery gear and everything in between, take a look at some of our newest finds!

For a number of our other favorites, please check out our Explore page!   Gooselings

Gooselings: Gooselings was inspired by ‘Hygge,’ the Scandinavian lifestyle leading to feeling calm and content. All of Gooselings products have been created to help add calm to our hectic daily lives with kids. These high-quality duvets and duvet covers are the perfect thing to bring your family together during playtime and add that sense of calm to the end of any work day. Plus they are easily packed for plane or car travel.

mamaroo sleep

4moms mamaRoo Sleep Bassinet: The newest product to hit the market from 4moms will launch early next year and moves like you do! With movement patterns similar to the mamaRoo, this sleep situation will be perfect for keeping your little one close for middle of the night feedings and diaper changes.

Nuna Triv

Nuna Triv Stroller: Triv is the newest stroller option from our friends at Nuna! This lightweight, easy-to-push stroller allows you to easily change between seat and car seat. It has a large storage basket and spring suspension, giving you a smooth push. Plus it’s one-handed fold can’t be beat!

Formerly Yan

FORMERLY YAN: We love this new maternity clothing line, which is designed specifically for changing silhouettes. Check out their Little Black Dress with Side Zippers or their Jogger Style Trousers, two of our favorites! These pieces are great for a day in the office or a night out on the town!

Uppababy

UPPAbaby Vista V2 and Cruz V2: UPPAbaby has updated their classic Cruz (single) and Vista (convertible) strollers for 2020! Both strollers are getting updated suspension –hello easier push!—as well as new colors/fabric options. The Cruz is also getting bigger wheels, a downsized fold, and a larger seat while the Vista will be seeing a no rethread harness and a larger canopy. These are expected to be released in February 2020!

Skip Hop High Chair

Skip Hop Feeding Line and Convertible High Chair: Skip Hop has launched both their feeding line and their Sit-to-Step High Chair! Great for infants and toddlers alike, this high chair reclines for easy bottle feeding, slides right up to the table, and turns into a toddler step stool. The feeding line is full of must have essentials, great for feeding at home or on the go.

Tranquilo

Tranquilo Products: Looking for a solution to help soothe baby when nothing seems to be working?! Look no further than Tranquilo! Their portable vibrating mat helps mimic the sounds from mom’s womb, instantly helping calm baby. The baby soothe massager is also great for use at home or on the go. All of these products are perfect for travel!

Finnbin

Finnbin: In Finland, parents are actually given a free cardboard baby box, which will provide their little ones with a safe sleeping environment from day one. Finnbin has stepped up this theory, providing high-quality Baby Boxes filled with all sorts of newborn necessities. Easy to move around the house and much more affordable than today’s standard bassinet, the Finnbin can definitely be your go-to baby gift!

Crawligator

Crawligator: Make tummy time fun with this JPMA Innovation Award Winner! The Crawligator helps your little one strengthen all of those muscles needed to begin crawling. Simply place your babe on top of the Crawligator and begin to move them forward slowly. A great way for parents and little ones to complete play time together!

Featuring 45+ non-alcoholic, plant-based mocktail recipes that are high in nutrients and low in sugar, this is the perfect coffee table book throughout pregnancy and beyond!

Maternity Clothes for Working Moms: 5 Must-Have Pieces

by Mel Blume Leave a Comment

While a bump is the best accessory ever, sometimes it’s hard to dress. Getting ready for work can become a massive undertaking, one that could require some help. We scoped out the maternity clothes scene and found five pieces that can take you through various stages and seasons with ease.

Must-Have Piece #1: A go-to top

A top you love is always essential. 

Gugu Guru loves: This classic flutter-sleeve top that mixes a feminine vibe with timeless style. Featuring vintage-inspired polka dots, it effortlessly keeps you feeling fashionable without compromising comfort. Easy to pair with a simple necklace (like one from Tiny Tags) or a great work-friendly backpack. Finish it with black pants, boots and a blazer for the office, or keep it casual with a denim jacket and easy flats for the weekend. 

Must-Have Piece #2: A versatile dress

It’s helpful to have a dress that’s a stylish option for every occasion. 

Gugu Guru loves: This sophisticated dress that’s elevated with a wear-everywhere vibe. Not only does it look and feel really good, it can dress you through all three trimesters—and beyond. With patterns galore to choose from, you can find one for meetings, weekend outings, your baby shower and more.

 

Must-Have Piece #3: Cozy, stylish pants

Find a pair that are effortless to make mornings ultra-easy.

Gugu Guru loves: These skinny ankle pants. Smooth, stretchy, versatile and flattering, we can’t get enough of them. Available in colors for every mood, this insanely popular pair will get more use than you can ever imagine. They’re stylish without effort and oh-so cozy—you cannot go wrong with at least one pair of these perfect pants.

 

Must-Have Piece #4: A chic, multi-functional diaper bag

You might want to save the big, bulky backpack for an all-day outing, and opt for something more chic-mama-friendly for days you want to feel like…you.

Gugu Guru loves: This desk-to-dinner-to-brunch-to-endless-kiddo-destinations cross-body diaper bag by Anjie+Ash. It’s sleek, vegan leather finish organizes all essentials while lending your looks a fashionable finish. 

Must-Have Piece #5: A snug-as-a-hug sweater

And lastly, since it’s fall, we thought we’d round out our list with a beautiful, cooler-weather essential. 

Gugu Guru loves: This beautiful and cozy v-neck shaker stitch sweater. From your couch to the corner office, we have no doubt will come in handy. Pair with Ilado’s beautiful maternity necklace as an effortless accessory. Hope this list helps, mama. Keep calm, dress on.

Skin & Makeup Techniques for Working Mothers

by Mel Blume Leave a Comment

Skin & Makeup techniques for working mothers are important to master because, well, mornings are an…adventure. Since we never know how long we actually have in front of the mirror, we need to think fast. And act faster. So, how do we figure out the simplest makeup routine? By starting with our skin.

Pretend you’re about to paint a picture. You have your paints lined up, your brushes ready to go. And then you take a look at your canvas. If it’s clean and smooth, you want to paint it. It’s simple. On the other hand, when there are bumps and specs of dirt that add unwanted textures, it gets a bit more complicated. 

Skin & Makeup Techniques for Working Mothers Tip #1: A reliable cleanser

So, first, let’s master the cleansing and caring for our skin. 

Gugu Guru loves: Belli’s Anti-Blemish Facial Wash, an award-winning cleanser. It leaves skin clear while fighting blemishes and signs of aging—without over drying. Plus, it uses all-natural ingredients, making it ultra-safe for prenatal and postnatal women.Skin & Makeup Techniques for Working Mothers Acne Control Spot Treatment

 

Skin & Makeup Techniques for Working Mothers Tip #2: On-the-spot acne treatment

Life could be stressful (the juggle is real!), and sometimes we see it come out on our face. It’s best to be prepared with a way to combat these breakouts. 

Gugu Guru loves: Belli’s Acne Control Spot Treatment. It reduces redness and provides some extra love to problem areas. And, bonus, it’s a non-greasy, non-drying blemish fighter. Skin & Makeup Techniques for Working Mothers Healthy Glow Facial

 

Skin & Makeup Techniques for Working Mothers #3: A spa-like moisturizer 

If you’re after that gorgeous glow (who isn’t?), you might want to find a moisturizer that leaves you looking and feeling like you just enjoyed an in-spa facial. 

Gugu Guru loves: Belli’s Healthy Glow Facial Hydrator. The super-hydrating moisturizer provides anti-aging, skin-firming effects that can be seen and felt instantly. Once you look and feel good without makeup, you can get ready for work in minutes.

 

Skin & Makeup Techniques for Working Mothers Tip #4: Easy eye makeup

Start with an eyeliner that doesn’t require a ton of touch-ups. Then, reach for your go-to mascara and give those lashes some love. 

Gugu Guru loves: Maybelline’s Eyestudio ColorTattoo. It’s smooth, soft and creamy, and lasts for up to 24 hours. 

 

Skin & Makeup Techniques for Working Mothers Tip #5: Alternative to foundation

You might want to skip the heavy foundation and opt for a tinted moisturizer. It lets your skin breathe, while evening out the tone. And it feels really good.

Gugu Guru loves: The best-selling Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer. It hydrates and is infused with SPF 30 sunscreen. Lather it on, enjoy its lightweight feel, and top it off with a bronzer for a sun-kissed effect. 

 

Skin & Makeup Techniques for Working MothersTip #6: A lovely lipstick

Choose a fall-perfect hue for your lips (nude to brown and every peach in between).

Gugu Guru loves: Dior Addict Lacquer Stick Lipstick. This high-shine, moisturizing lipstick comes in an array of rich shades to give you a smooch-worthy finish. 

Health & Wellness Giveaway

Online Prenatal and Parenting Classes: The Parent Collective

by Christine Swearingen Leave a Comment

Looking for online prenatal and parenting classes? At Gugu Guru, we know how overwhelming it can be as a first time mom. That’s why we are so excited to share with you all that The Parent Collective has launched an online version of their successful in-person prenatal and new parenting class series. To celebrate, they have offered the Gugu Guru community 25% off any one of their online classes. Just use the coupon GUGUGURU at checkout. To learn more visit: https://courses.theparentcollective.com

Don’t have time to get to a prenatal education class but feel like it’s probably something you and your partner should do? Are you uninterested in the judginess that can come with learning about having a baby? Are you overwhelmed by the universe of baby information (often contradictory) that’s out there? Believe us, we get it!! TPC is made up of all mothers, so they have all been in your shoes. You have so much information being thrown at you and it’s hard to know what to listen to.  

The Parent Collective was founded by a mom and has a range of prenatal and postpartum classes that are now available online. Founder, Jessica Hill says “We hear from expectant moms all the time that they are overwhelmed by the universe of baby information (often contradictory) that’s out there. And of course we get it!! We at TPC are all mothers ourselves so we have all been in expectant parents’ shoes. You have so much information being thrown at you and it’s hard to know what to listen to.”Just like Gugu Guru, the goal of TPC is helping make the journey to parenthood manageable. We believe you don’t need to be an expert to enjoy the experience of parenthood. Instead, our goal is to help you feel prepared for all parenthood has to offer without feeling overwhelmed by all of the extras. We believe TPC’s Online Prenatal and Parenting Classes are an excellent way to make this possible for any busy mom-to-be. 

All of their online courses have been developed using the same evidence-based prenatal education as their highly successful in-person class series. The curriculum was developed in conjunction with OB doctors, Lactation Consultants, L&D and Postpartum Nurses as well as childbirth educators to reflect current best practices and bring you to a level of readiness so you can enjoy the process of becoming a new parent. And if the videos spark any questions for you, you can organize a web or in person chat with one of their experts to get them answered.   

Online Prenatal and Parenting Classes by The Parent Collective

Since TPC is all about connecting expectant and new parents, we also want to let you know that even if you don’t take one of their in-person classes, you can still meet other parents through them. If you sign up for their newsletter, link below, they can connect you with other parents that live local to you and have babies the same age.  

The Parent Collective Online Prenatal and Parenting Classes: https://courses.theparentcollective.com/opt-in-8752662b-4365-49bb-84aa-a0618aa4cd4d

We hope TPC will be a resource for you, as they have for so many other expectant parents!

Hooked on a Spa Feeling: Revel In It with Belli Skincare

by Mel Blume Leave a Comment

Cooling pads on our eyes, a mask hugging our face, the refreshing scent of lemon grass, soft meditation music, a light breeze…there’s nothing like that spa feeling. However, even when we finally get a moment to make that appointment, we typically end up canceling it due to…#momlife.

Even though our spa days can become a figment of our imagination, it doesn’t mean we can’t continue to pamper ourselves and love the way our skin looks and feels. We did some research and found a skincare company that truly delivers everything a busy mama wants: Introducing Belli Skincare.

With concerns for mothers (prenatal, postnatal and beyond) at their core, Belli is dedicated to safe ingredients. They are focused on healthy, wholesome and luxurious skincare products that bring spa-like feelings and results. Belli’s Anti-Blemish Facial Wash received a Women’s Choice Award: The pure face wash features natural ingredients including lemon peel oil, a natural anti-bacterial and skin brightener, and green tea extract and cucumbers—both rich in antioxidants.

Belli Skincare

Unlike most acne-fighting products, this is free of harmful chemicals like the very common salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide. To provide even more love to your blemished areas, you might also want to check out Belli’s Acne Control Spot Treatment. Its fast-acting results and non-greasy formula make it a must for mamas with acne challenges.

Belli Sunscreen

Since sunscreen is essential for every outing, it’s important to have a chemical-free go-to. Belli’s Pure Radiance Sunscreen’s lightweight vegan formula makes it ultra-simple to wear under makeup, plus it’s even safe for kids.

Belli Skincare

And when you just want to glow (who doesn’t?), try the popular Healthy Glow Facial Hydrator. The vitamin-C-infused moisturizer delivers anti-aging skin firming results and is perfect for all skin types.

Mama, you’re busy, but you still matter—and always will. It’s okay for you to treat yourself to a safe, soothing, good-for-the-soul skin experience. Check out Belli Skincare—we don’t think you’ll ever look back.

What’s New on Gugu: August 21, 2019

by Abby Ludwig Leave a Comment

This week I have found some fun new products for both mom and baby! For mom, I am highlighting three new maternity/nursing apparel options. Two of these are great options for working moms and one is great for active families! I also have a new combination car seat (harness to booster) that will be great for school carpools! Also, an excellent set by one of our favorite eco-friendly toy companies.

 

For a number of our other favorites, please check out our Explore page!

Britax Grow with You Clicktight and Grow with you Clicktight Plus: The two new Harness-2-Booster options from Britax are great for back to school and carpool! We love Britax’s Clicktight installation, which gets you a perfectly tight fit in a matter of seconds. These seats will keep your forward facing kiddo in a harness until 65 pounds, and safely in a booster up to 120 pounds. Clicktight Plus also features naturally flame-retardant fabrics that you can easily wash and dry!

The Dress by leSolstice: This pregnancy and nursing friendly dress is the new ‘must have’ in any mama’s wardrobe! The slight compression waist stays up on your growing tummy while the dual wrap top easily opens for nursing and/or pumping. Plus, the magnetic closure will keep one side closed, even if you need to open the other!

Rose and Rex Calm Mind Kit: Looking to introduce mindfulness and meditation to your little one in a developmentally appropriate way? Look no further! Created by childhood development and wellness experts, these will help you get through the dog days of summer! Each set contains three toys as well as a set of calm mind activity cards. Plus, every purchase gives back toys to children in need!

Cadenshae Activewear: A full line of maternity (and nursing-friendly) activewear for pregnancy and beyond! Created to look just like your pre-baby wardrobe, every Mom and Mom-to-be will find something high-quality and super comfortable! Once baby arrives, these items will continue to be some of your favorite go-to pieces!

J. Crew x HATCH Collection: Another fun collaboration has recently launched! J. Crew’s entrance into the maternity world is paired brilliantly with HATCH, creating many new (and adorable!) pieces for the working mom. Comfortable for the growing belly, these pieces will help you feel confident in the work place throughout all three trimesters and beyond!
