Gift Guide: Baby’s First Gifts

-Sponsored Post-

Shopping for baby’s first gifts for a milestone holiday? Everyone loves shopping for special baby gifts, but sometimes finding the right gift can stump you! We rounded up some of our favorite special gifts when it comes to shopping for baby’s first gift.

Don’t forget to check out our Toddler Gift Guide, too!

Butterscotch Blankees: We’re huge fans of personalized gifts for baby’s first gifts – especially when they’re gorgeous blankies which they can keep for life. As always, we love to talk about investment when it comes to baby gifts, and Butterscotch Blankees are a must-have investment gift for your little one. Butterscotch Blankees are known for their gorgeous monogrammed blankets – which come in a huge variety of styles (seriously, there’s over 65 designs to browse through!). You’re sure to find the perfect blankie for the special baby in your life. They add such pizzaz to any nursery or living area. We think they’re also perfect backgrounds for monthly photos. When you go to the Butterscotch Blankees website, you chose a design first; then, you pick whether you want acrylic or cashmere (yes, please!), size of the blanket (3 to choose from), base color, accent color…and then customize your monogram – even down to the color and font! Have fun while shopping for baby’s first gift with Butterscotch Blankees – the blankie which will last a lifetime with your little one. Plus, they come wrapped up like a sweet butterscotch candy – can’t much cuter than that!

Whisbear: We are all about giving baby’s first gifts that are both functional and adorable – enter, Whisbear! Originally created in the UK by two mothers, the multi-award winning Whisbear, The Humming Bear, is an innovative product for babies. Knowing that many babies are soothed by the soothing whooshing sounds of the womb, Whisbear aims to help newborns have a smooth transition from prenatal to postnatal life. Whisbear emits Pink Noise; while white noise is often used for sleeping aids, Pink Noise is scientifically proven to most accurately represent the sounds familiar from a mother’s womb and have links to better night sleep for newborns. Pink Nose is less high-frequency noise as well as stimulating the pleasure sensors in the brain. Unlike other sleep devices, Whisbear plays for 40 minutes. After in gently turns off, it stays on standby and is re-activated once the baby starts to cry, pacifying the baby back to sleep. Whisbear is the first sleep aid created featuring the CRYsensor – this is an intelligent device which automatically actives calming white noise when your baby starts crying! Whisbear is so much more than a sleep aid, however. It is also an adorable sensory toy and playtime companion. For newborns, it is a great tummy time companion, and as babies grow, it becomes a sweet animal companion which promotes both fine motor and sensory development skills. If you’re looking for a useful and adorable gift for baby, the Whisbear is a perfect choice – as it is not just a gift for baby, but for the whole household!

Little Giraffe’s Little L Blanky: It’s no secret that we’re fans of Little Giraffe (Little Giraffe plush toys are a toddler diaper bag must have) and we think that Little Giraffe’s super soft Blanky Lovies are the ultimate baby’s first gifts. Downsize your diaper bag and maximize smiling baby time with Little Giraffe’s 2-in-1 travel pal and security blanky. Sure to be your little one’s favorite tag-along buddy, the Little L Blanky provides comfort and companionship while on-the-go. Coming in pink or blue, with adorable polka dots and an even cuter face, this Blanky Lovey will not only be a super soft companion for your little one, but make a memorable first gift for baby which will grow with them, too.

Pearhead Baby Prints Kit: Pearhead is our go-to shop when it comes to preserving memories, and baby’s first gift is no exception. Pearhead offers a variety of ways you can memorialize the special moments in your baby’s life – and these kits make the ultimate first gifts for babies and parents alike. The My Little Babyprints Tin comes in gray or pink with a package of clay, rolling pin, and easel to display once you’re finished. It is so easy to complete and you can do it as many times as you like to get just the perfect prints! We’re also fans of the Babyprints Keepsake, which makes an ideal first gift for baby and parents – the babyprints keepsake comes with everything you need to make your baby’s footprint or handprint. It includes one package of soft, air drying clay and a ribbon to display the keepsake once finished. You can get the babyprints keepsake in white, pink or blue – making it a perfect gift idea!

ErgoPouch Sleep Suit Bag: We love keeping babies warm and snuggly, so why not gift your little one a safe way to keep warm with the ErgoPouch as one of baby’s first gifts? We’ve written before about how much we love ErgoPouch for babies and toddlers, and we think ErgoPouch’s Sleep Suit Bags make a perfect first baby gift, as they are safe, help baby sleep, and are super cute, too. The organic natural fibers that make up the ergoPouch are breathable and skin friendly, which keeps baby at an even and controlled temperature, unlike with polyester. ergoPouch offers a range of tog (warmth) ratings available to suit every temperature and every season, so you can pick the suits perfect for your baby at all times of the year. Baby can sleep anywhere with the ergoPouch Sleep Suit Bag since it converts from a sleeping bag to a sleep suit with legs! This makes the transition from crib to stroller or car an easy one. It’s also a perfect choice for older babies and toddlers who like freedom of movement, with grip pads on the feet for little walkers. Gift your little one the gift of warmth and cozy with the ErgoPouch Sleep Suit Bags – it’s a perfect Hygge Gift!

Holiday 2017: Toddler Gift Guide

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

-Sponsored Post-

It’s that time of year again: holiday gift guides for all! This year we’re kicking off our gift guide with awesome gifts for the toddlers in your life. We tried to mix it up between fun gifts, and some gifts which are useful, too! Which one of these would Santa bring your little one?

Trend Lab, character chairs: We’re huge fans of seating made for toddlers, as it teaches independence and is also a super cute addition to any playroom or bedroom. These Trend Lab character chairs are pretty much as cute as they come. These super soft plush chairs are ideal for snuggling, relaxing, and reading. They come in a variety of styles, such as Moose, Elephant, Dragon (dragons are very popular this holiday season!), Lion, Giraffe, Panda, and Tiger – so you’re sure to find a special character chair for the special little lady or guy in your life. These chairs are super lightweight, which makes them easy to move around the house, even for a toddler. Use code TLCCHAIR for 15% off all Trend Lab Children’s Plush Character Chairs on www.tlcbabies.com only. Promo code expiration date: December 31, 2017.

Orbit Labels by Inchbug: We’ve sang the praises of Orbit Labels before, and we happen to think they are a perfect gift for a toddler – whether for a stocking stuffer, or a special gift for a little one who is starting to recognize their own name! Orbit Labels are an ideal gift for toddlers because they are utilitarian, yet also super cute and fun. These non-adhesive and reusable labels are a must-have for any kiddo going to daycare or school; these labels are easily washable and go on sippy cups, bottles, thermoses, and more – and because your child’s name is engraved in the label, their name can never be washed off. Have fun picking the color, icon, and text for each of your children and never mix up a sippy cup or bottle again!

Lark Adventurewear: Toddlers are known for their sense of adventure, and what better to dress them in for an adventure, than Lark Adventurewear? Lark Adventurewear is known for their innovative fabric, created out of a special bamboo and cotton blended knit that is breathable, wicks moisture and is super soft, which means ultimate comfort for your little one. Their activewear is Oeko-Tex® 100 Certified, whose standards ensure that our fabric is made with environmentally friendly processing. Lark Adventurewear also features easy-open tops and bottom-to-top zippers to make clothing and diaper changes as easy as possible. We’re huge fans of all of their clothing and they are releasing long sleeved bodysuits and t-shirts (perfect for those Fall and Winter hikes with baby!) mid-December, so don’t forget to check back and snag yours. See our full review of Lark Adventurewear here, too.

Perry Mackin, Toddler Backpack: Toddlers love to put “things in things” and then carry them around the house. Seriously. Which is why we always suggest toddler sizes backpacks as gifts when it comes to toddlers! We’re loving the Perry Mackin Harness Backpack for toddler this year. Coming in blue, cream, red, yellow, and gold – you’re sure to find your toddler’s favorite color – and parents will love these backpacks because they feature a top grab handle and the secure easy-to-attach rein, to keep all walks around the block safe and fun. These mini backpacks are plastic with a zipper closure, and adjustable pack straps. We think your toddler will love wearing the backpack day and night, and we love the mod and streamlined look of the bag!

B.Box Diaper Caddy: Another great storage piece for toddlers is B.Box’s Diaper Caddy – this is such a multipurpose gift! Whether your toddler is actually still in diapers or not, the B.Box Diaper Caddy will easily grow with your family. This light and portable diaper changing station ensures you have everything you need for diaper changing wherever you are around the home; it’s also great for toilet training, as you can store pull-ups, wipes, and even some reward stickers. We love how compact this caddy is; a great space saver for apartment living and ideal for two-story homes. When baby is done with diapers, it makes a great art caddy or home/toy organizer, just pop a tissue box where the wipes were. Plus, it’s safe to have around babies and toddlers because it is BPA, Phthalates and PVC free.

Edushape Magic Brix Giant Set: Our top toy pick for toddlers is one which falls into every popular category this holiday season – it is STEM related, gender-neutral – and even fun for adults too! The set includes 360 flexible and soft bristle Magic Brix that interlock when pushed together and stay attached until they are pulled apart. Magic Brix attach from practically every side and are ideal for any toddler who wants to give shape to his imagination! The set features a wide variety of colorful blocks and shapes to help develop creativity, fine motor skills, logic and reasoning, and socialization when playing with others. Edushape is a 35 year old educational toy company that originally catered to pre-schools and soon their skill-enhancing products became consumer favorites. You can see some fun Edushape creations on their Instagram and Facebook.

Maternity Jeans for Every Budget

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

When it comes to dressing your bump, a good pair of maternity jeans is key! Our editor polled one of her online mama groups and asked what their favorite maternity jeans were – for every budget! Here’s the top two picks for every different wallet size.

Budget-Friendly Maternity Jeans:

Left: Maternity Crossover Panel® Bootcut Jeans – Isabel Maternity, $25 – Hands down, when it comes to affordable maternity wear, Target is the lowest price. While H+M and Old Navy were also super popular, their maternity jeans were actually higher priced than any of Target’s options. These cute jeans have a little straight-leg to them, for the mamas who don’t love the super skinny look.

Right: Maternity Crossover Panel® Jeggings – Isabel Maternity, $25 – many moms we talked to sang the praises of jeggings for pregnancy! These Target jeggings with a full belly panel look chic and comfy.

Mid-Price Range Maternity Jeans:

Left: Motherhood Secret Fit Belly Stitched Pocket Boot Cut Maternity Jeans, $50 – these were our editor’s favorite jeans for pregnancy; she wore them throughout both pregnancies, and her husband even said they looked better on her than her non-maternity jeans!

Right: Three Seasons Maternity Women’s Maternity Bootcut Denim with Neutral Belly Band, $40 – The Three Seasons brand keep coming up in the group as a go-to brand for maternity; one mama said, “I bought and wore these for almost 2 years with back-to-back pregnancies and they still look new!!!“

High-Priced Maternity Jeans:

Left: Ag Jeans Secret Fit Belly Maternity Jeans, $200 – $300 – these came up time and again from the mamas, at a higher price range, they surely aren’t for every budget, but as one mama said, “pricey, but three pairs lasted me through two (and counting) pregnancies without stretching, losing shape or fading.”

Right: Joe’s Secret Fit Belly Skinny Leg Maternity Jeans. $200 – $250 – another popular maternity jean in the higher price range, a mama fan of Joe’s says, “I’ve always found Joe’s denim to be soft, extremely comfortable, and have a good amount of stretch, which worked out fantastically well for a growing belly. I’m a big comfort person but I also love fashion and designers so the two lined up nicely as well. I remember trying on other maternity designer jeans and those not fitting as well or as comfortable as Joe’s.”

Preserving Summer Memories with Pearhead

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

It’s getting to that time of year when kids are slowly trickling back into school, but it’s still hot out…the pool is still open, but yes, summer is on it’s way out. Before summer leaves for good, while all of those summer memories are fresh in your head, is a great time to start preserving all of the summer memories from the entire summer. You know that as soon as school is in full swing, and it becomes holiday season before you know it, those summer memories will seem so distant. We teamed up with Pearhead, known for their eclectic mix of memory making items, to share some of our top picks of ways we can make summer last forever…even if it is only in our minds!

Pictures Frames: We know that you’ve taken countless photos throughout the summer of your little ones with every family member that has come to visit, why not commemorate those special pictures with picture frames chock full of sweet sentiment? We happen to be a bit biased towards the “me & my mommy” frame, but you can also get one for daddy, grandma, grandpa, aunts, uncles, sisters, brothers – and give a gift to the grandparents, with a “my grandkids” frame of a special summer memory.

Family Handprint Frame: We all know how quickly kids grow up, so we’re absolutely loving the idea of this Family Handprint Frame to remember a special summer. You can use a great summer photo from the beach, a picnic, or park and then put everyone’s handprints in the frame to commemorate this specific time in your life.

Baby Book: Pearhead is known for their huge selection of gorgeous baby books! Don’t forget to snag one and write down all of the exciting events from the summer; even if it is as simple as, “baby’s first time eating watermelon,” we know you’re going to want to write it all down to remember all of those precious moments.

Clothespin Collage Frame: We love the idea of decorating the house year round with summer memories, and this Clothespin Collage Frame is the perfect way to do that. This precious frame features white ribbon with mini clothespins for hanging up to 9 favorite 3.25″ x 3.25″ photos of your child. Ribbon and clothespins add a special touch to this frame. Includes frame with space to hang 9 photos, mat for displaying, and hanger for easy wall mounting.

Siblings Collage Frame: Since summer is all about getting together and enjoying the weather, beach, and pool, we love this Siblings frame as a way to commemorate time with aunts, uncles, cousins, and family. A cute description is printed in the center of the frame in gray and Pearhead blue colors saying; “brothers & sisters, partners in crime, siblings, birds of a feather, and friends forever.” Large plastic frame is lightweight and perfect for hanging on any wall with included hanger.

Plus, don’t forget to start thinking ahead to Halloween with this “Cutest Pumpkin in the Patch” picture frame!

Maternity Fashion FAQs: Finally Answered by Le Tote

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

Standing in front of a closet full of clothes that don’t fit anymore, mornings can get quite frustrating. It’s hard enough dressing right for your body type; add a growing bump to the mix and things can get overwhelming.

Contrary to how easy our favorite fashionistas make it look, transitioning to maternity fashion is not always that seamless.

Enter Le Tote Maternity. A fashion rental service that lets you borrow unlimited clothes and accessories, starting at $49 a month. Don’t forget to use code GUGU for 50% OFF your first month! (Expires 09/30/2017)

Here is a list of the most frequently-asked Maternity Fashion FAQs: Finally Answered by Le Tote to help you bump up your style.

What should I look for when buying maternity jeans?

While the style depends on your personal taste — skinny, boyfriend or classic straight leg, the key is adjustability. Whether you are an over or under the belly kind of girl, always look for jeans with elastic panels to accommodate your growing bump.

What is the best way to flatter my baby bump?

The one word answer is a belt. Use it to accessorize as well as accentuate your curves. Belt above your bump to avoid the parachute look. Find belts that are thin or stretchy or better still, both!

Do I have to avoid bright colors?

Not at all! Take advantage of your natural glow and rock colors that you normally wouldn’t. Deep oranges, hot pinks and vibrant blues… Enjoy this judgement-free time!

What kind of prints can I pull off?

Any and every kind of print! Pick an iconic statement if you are feeling bold, or a vibrant graphic print if you are in the mood for some fashion fun. A subtle micro print is great for work or weekend.

Which trimester calls for true maternity wear?

The second trimester. You can get away with wearing your own clothes in the first trimester because the bump isn’t visible yet. Once you start showing, it’s time to build your maternity wardrobe with essentials like easy knit dresses, work blouses and classic denim.

What are some closet essentials I should look out for?

These five pieces are essentials you will wear well beyond your term. Made to adapt to your changing body and versatile enough to be dressed up or down, think of these as your maternity closet MVPs, pieces that you can wear during AND after.

Go-To Skinny Jeans: You will love the comfort of your stretchy maternity skinny jeans long after the baby comes.

The Wrap Dress: No other silhouette accommodates a growing bump AND hides a less than perfect post-baby belly quite like a wrap dress.

Easy Draped Nursing Wrap: Drape style nursing wraps metamorphose into a chic third piece, aka the easiest way to elevate the simplest of looks.

Basic T-shirt Dress: An easy T-shirt dress that will rescue the I-don’t-have-anything-to-wear days during the pregnancy and much after.

Essential White Top: A basic white top — dressed up or down — has to be our number 1 building block of any weekend wardrobe.

3 New Mom and Baby Brands You Need to Know About!

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

Doesn’t it seem like there are a million and one new mom and baby brands on the market daily? We know it is not only time consuming, but also super stressful, for parents to sift through the thousands of new mom and baby brands and figure out what new ones would work for them, and which are unnecessary for their life (cough cough, this is the founding premise of Gugu Guru!). Our editors spend many a nights scrolling Instagram, checking blogs, and chatting with insiders in the baby-world to bring our readers the best of the best new products. Today we are sharing 3 mom and baby new brands and products vary from solving the problem of having milk drip down your body, to saving and announcing a milestone moment, and we’re also excited to introduce a new baby brand from a very famous dancing-lady. Wondering whom we’re referring to? Scroll down and take a look. Plus – don’t miss out on some discounts just for Gugu Guru readers below!

The first of our 3 new brands you need to know about is all about those pregnancy milestones. There is nothing as purely magical as the moment you first hear that faint “woosh woosh” sound through the ultrasound machine and know it’s your baby’s heartbeat. It makes everything feel so real and it’s beyond exciting and emotional. Now, there’s a wonderfully (and easy) cute way to save that special moment forever, with the My Baby’s Heartbeat Bear line of animals. How does it work? All of their kits come with a stuffed animal and 20 second recorder that will save your recording even after battery changes. You can even transfer a recording of your baby’s heartbeat from your phone or computer, and download their app and backup baby’s heartbeat for safe keeping. Even more fun? They also sell a gender reveal kit! My Baby’s Heartbeat Bear Gender Reveal kits consist of a cuddly, adorable stuffed animal, a red heart shaped, battery-powered recorder, a blue bow tie, a pink tutu, and a box to conceal the gender until you’re ready to tell the world. Take the recorder to your doctor’s appointment or local ultrasound studio and simply press to record 20 seconds of your baby’s heartbeat. The ultrasound tech can dress the animal after session so user can open the box and reveal baby’s gender in the comfort of one’s own home with family or friends. So cute, right? And, right now you can get 20% off your order from My Baby’s Heartbeat Bear with the code GUGU20 – this would make a perfect baby shower gift, too!

It’s no secret that when a new mama is starting on her breastfeeding journey with a newborn, she often spends hours topless, especially during those cluster feedings. However, what do you do if there’s milk leaking all over and yet it’s way easier to just not put a shirt on? Introducing, the Ta-Ta Towel! A towel made just for your breasts – seriously! The ultra-soft rayon liner was made with sensitive nipples in mind and also absorbs any breast milk that might leak out during feeding. Plus, with hormonal changes that come after delivery, the Ta-Ta Towel will help absorb any excess boob sweat during those sweaty hormonal moments, so you can feel (a little) cleaner and not so wet and sweaty. A lot of moms also love the Ta-Ta Towel for post-shower time, as it keeps your boobs dry, especially since a lot of moms leak milk post-shower time. Would you wear a Ta-Ta Towel? They come in a ton of different colors, and they are adjustable for size!

And, the last of our 3 new brands you need to know about: we’re thrilled to introduce you to Ellen DeGeneres’ new baby line at Buy Buy Baby! As Ellen says, “Babies love to be swaddled and should always be surrounded by love and kindness. I created my baby collection with that thought in mind. Each piece has a message of love and the line is filled with whimsical and fun pieces. I don’t have a baby but I love to be swaddled and you will too!” This baby lifestyle collection is so gorgeous and covers everything from bibs to crib sheets to strollers. We love the positive message on all of the clothing and items, and the gender neutral colors are on-point. Two major thumbs up for the ED Ellen DeGeneres Baby Collection. Check out some of our top picks below:

ED Ellen DeGeneres Starry Night Embroidered Quilt; ED Ellen DeGeneres Forest Animal Chifferobe in Natural Grey; Peg Perego Pliko Mini Stroller in Navy; ED Ellen DeGeneres Velour Made with Love Footie in Ivory; ED Ellen DeGeneres Dog Icon Shoe in Brown; ED Ellen DeGeneres 3-Piece “I Can and I Will” Embroidered Top and Pant Set; ED Ellen DeGeneres Durby Diaper Bag in Cognac

New Nursery Style Boards With Curated Nest! (+ giveaway)

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

We are so excited today to announce that not only do we have brand new nursery style boards for our registry style quizzes, but a ton of new and gorgeous nursery items added to our registry! The lovely ladies of Curated Nest have worked tirelessly to help us pack our registry full of the best nursery items you could think of. They have curated 4 new style boards: Mod, New Vintage, Traditional, and Boho!

Curated Nest is the stylish brainchild of Erin Coren and Lina Galvao, interior designers and recent first-time moms living in Brooklyn, NY. After designing nurseries for our their babies, they saw a need to change the way parents and loved ones shop for nurseries. And so Curated Nest was born.

At Curated Nest, Erin and Lina strive to curate beautiful and functional rooms with the coolest (and safest…yeah, they’re moms too) products in furniture and decor from hip sources and artists – so that you don’t have to scour the internet for that perfect piece or buy a matching set from a store. Their goal is to offer you the style of hiring an interior designer, yet the transparency and ease of an online site. If you’re trying to design your nursery and need help from the comfort of your home, Erin and Lina can provide you with everything you need via the Internet to design a safe and warm nursery. Pretty cool, eh?

Curated Nest has curated four new style boards for our registry – and not only that, but have personally added a ton (seriously, a ton) of new items to our nursery collections in our registry, making it super easy for any Gugu Guru mama to add everything she needs for the nursery to her registry. Curated Nest has rounded up some of their favorite items to share with you today – check out why they picked these items below, too! Want to see the rest of the new nursery items they curated for the registry? Create a registry today, or use our new search box in EXPLORE to search our database of products. PLUS – use code gugu10 at checkout on CuratedNest.com for 10% off your purchases of items within our registry!

Curated Nest’s Favorite Picks from the new Style Boards:

Crib: We love that not only is it a cool crib but with the accessories it can become a fort and grow with your baby into toddlerhood.
Cloud Pillows: They’re filled with a dense insert, so it’s great to use as a pillow on the floor and as a stuffed toy.
Crib Sheet: It gives you the perfect stage for insta-worthy monthly pics!
Giraffe Wall Mounted Head: A serious focal point in a nursery. It has amazing hand stitched detail and provides a whimsical design. They’re very light weight and plush so it’s safe for all ages.
Upholstered Rocker: We love how it transitions to anywhere in the house and it has a small footprint perfect for when every inch matters (urban nurseries).
Mid-Century Rocker: Same as above, but for mid-century modern.
Birch Tree: Great for hanging dress up clothes on and creates a whimsical vibe.
Macrame Wall Hanging: We love the boho texture it adds to a wall, especially when used within a art grouping of flat prints.
Woodland Wallpaper: Whimsy at its finest. The company is super clever as they make it available in removable and traditional glue application, so you can even use it in an apartment. The more you stare at it, the more details you see. Especially when you zombie out during 3am feedings.
Basket: Canvas and Pom Pom basket folds down and comes in various sizes so you can use for just about anything.
Washable Rug: The most brilliant product out there comes in a variety of patterns which can be thrown in the wash after your little one pulls an Exorcist and projectile spit ups everywhere
Leather Moroccan Pouf: Sophisticated and non “baby.” Perfect pouf for putting your feet up when rocking your babe, and as they grow up, a soft piece to learn to cruise on.
