mchoni says "perfect diaper for my infant" about Pampers Swaddlers

mchoni — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 19:30:25 GMT

Pampers Swaddlers Diapers are PERFECT for newborns. I wanted a comfortable, soft, durable diaper for my sweet little baby. Swaddlers was right for us. I liked the clean, white design. Diapers were soft and not noisy. Never had a leaky diaper. Used swaddlers until my baby grew out of the size 2's. I'll definitely be using Swaddlers again for my next child. I was able to afford these diapers by combining store coupons and manufactuer coupons and a sale (if possible)! Then we'd stock up at those times. Pampers coupons are widely available in newspapers. I'd recommend these diapers to every new mom.

mchoni says "Helps my baby meet her daily calcuim needs" about Stonyfield Farms Organic YoBaby Yogurt

mchoni — Mon, 20 Jul 2009 20:08:52 GMT

I was turned on to YoBaby yogurt when my 12 month old was switching from bottles to sippy cups for milk. She was not drinking near enough milk those few days. I tried this yogurt and my baby LOVED it. She couldn't get enough. We've tried vanilla, banana, strawberry banana, and raspberry pear. They are all terrific flavors. I didn't worry as much about her milk intake since she was getting the nutrients and calcuim from the yogurt. Now we use it as a special treat for occasional meals! Only wish yogurt wasn't so expensive!

mchoni says "awesome, durable, safe infant seat" about Graco Quattro Tour Deluxe Travel Galore System

mchoni — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 14:48:00 GMT

I love graco! They have such great products for baby. We bought the stroller and infant seat combo in the "G Galore" pattern. Padding under the infant seat cover is excellent. Thicker than some other less expensive models. Safety is of the utmost importance to us. Fabric wiped clean easily. Straps never tangled, and buckles worked great. Very easy to use and to adjust straps. I'd buy this seat over and over again. The only con is how heavy it is!! But, if it mean it's safe, I'll take it! Loved how it hooks into the matching stroller.

mchoni says "seat is great, baby didn't like it" about Bumbo Baby Seat

mchoni — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 14:44:11 GMT

I found a purple Bumbo seat for my daughter. I was so excited, given purple is my favorite color! I had high hopes that my baby would enjoy the seat, since I've heard such great things about it from so many other moms. Well, she did NOT like it! She would immediately try and straighten her body like a board to get out of it. Leg holes were a tad small for us. Our little one is a bit on the chunky side. None the less, it was a great idea, but just didn't work for us. Wish it would've. We will try again with our next kid!

mchoni says "awesome formula, the best for my baby" about Enfamil Lipil Formula with Iron

mchoni — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 14:41:04 GMT

When breastfeeding did not work, we switched our baby over to Enfamil Lipil with Iron powder formula, and have not looked back. It's been 8 months now, and we are still 100% satisfied. I only buy if I have a formula check to help keep the cost manageable. Powder mixes VERY well with water. It is a tad foamy at first, but does not seem to contribute to increased gas in baby. I used Enfamil over Similac only because I had received samples in the mail from the company prior to the birth of my baby. I loved it from the start, as did our daughter! We've had no tummy issues related to the formula. Taste seems fine and baby drinks it up! Enfamil is readily found EVERYWHERE. I like going to Target or Babies R Us to buy.. seems like they have the best prices. I tried switching brands of formula once, and our daughter knew it and insisted on the Enfamil again! I would use this brand for our other children to come.

mchoni says "only bottle my baby consistently takes" about Dr. Brown's Natural Flow Baby Bottle

mchoni — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 20:45:12 GMT

I LOVE these baby bottles. I've used SO many different brands over the past 7 months. I switched to bottles when my baby girl was 3 months old. These bottles were great. She took them from the start. I like how the flow is customizable. I started with size 1 (slow flow) then went to size 2 (medium flow) around 4 months. Then went to size 3 nipple (fast) around six months. We also put rice cereal in with her formula to thicken it up due to GERD issues. Baby has no problem sucking it through the size 3 nipples. There are tons of pieces to the bottles which is the only drawback, in my opinion. But I love the bottle and it didn't cause excess gas. We wash the bottles in the dishwasher after giving them a quick rinse in the sink. This has kept them sparkling clean for months and months. We have about 10 bottles. Our niece used them for a year as well. They are quite durable and will hold up for continuous use for years.

mchoni says "cute, compact phone, bad battery life" about Samsung - SCH-U620 Cell Phone

mchoni — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 20:31:36 GMT

The Samsung u620 cell phone is great! I love the compact size and HUGE screen. My only complaint is with the battery life. It's not as good as LG cell phones. I can only make a few moderate in length calls before I need to recharge it. Stand-by time seems fine.. The camera is EXCELLENT! I love it. Screen size is quite large. Photos look high quality when texted to my computer. I love the ringtones as well. TV component is great. I used it during my first month of having the phone since the service was free. Great reception. I've dropped it a few times, and only has a few knicks on it. Phone is quite durable. I also take videos with the phone. It's great! I will be sad when the phone dies because I have saved so many pictures on it. Phone also has a microSD card slot. I do not have a micro card, thus I have not used that feature. My favorite part of the phone is the large screen. No other phone comes close, in my opinion.

mchoni says "The Fisher Price Rainforest Highchair is everything I need!" about Fisher Price Rainforest Healthy Care High Chair #K2927

mchoni — Fri, 13 Feb 2009 22:00:25 GMT

I LOVE this highchair. It's great. The tray slides on and off easily with one hand which is great if you're holding your babe in the other arm! Cleanup is great with the easy-wipe fabric. Messes go away quick. The tray is large and has a cupholder as well. Print is fun and brightly colored for baby. I would recommend this over and over!...
