Regardless how you plan to feed your baby the bottom line is they will need to fed. Whether it be bottle, breast or a mix of both. Sometimes circumstances mean we are unable to do this how we intended to and adjustments are made to make baby feeding easy. For example; a mum returning to work may require to pump milk to continue breastfeeding or swap to formula, your baby may have attachment issues making it harder to feed resulting in a bottle. Your milk supply may not be able to keep up with the appetite of your baby or you may just want a night off. Whatever the issue may be there are a wide of products that can make feeding your baby easy and stress free. I have been using Miomee products for Poppet since she born and they are great quality, my first ever Miomee products purchase was their nipple shields and I must say they were an absolute life saver!! If you haven’t heard of Miomee or used their products before I will share my thoughts on a few with you and if you already use them you will be nodding along as you read – did I mention you can WIN an amazing prize pack as well valued at $160.00!!

Miomee products

 Miomee Single Electric Breast Pump

This pump is easy to use, it’s light weight and it’s pretty quiet compared to others I’ve used making it convenient to use whilst bub is in the same room. I always found I could express more if they were near me, possibly some strange hormonal thing? But it worked. One of my favourite features is the timer that counts backwards so you know how long you have been expressing for and making it easy to know when to swap sides. It is simple to assemble and easy to clean which is a must when buying breast pumps. My only negative to this pump is that it cannot be run on batteries and must have mains power.

  Miomee slow flow bottles

Miss H has only really taken to bottles in the past couple of months as I have begun to wean her from full time breastfed to mix fed. These bottles are great for reducing wind and because the teats simulate that of a mothers lactating breast the transition from one to the other is very smooth. I love how wide the necks are on these bottles because it makes preparing bottles and cleaning them an absolute breeze. My only issue with these bottles are that when Miss H is drinking from them milk will often leak out of thee air spout onto her face.

Miomee first drinking cup

The first drinking cups are fantastic because they come with 2 different spouts plus they can also use the Miomee teats making it functional 3 ways. It has handles making it easy to your little to hold on their own and it is shake proof, spill proof and BPA FREE. This is one of my favourite sippy cups for Miss H.

Miomee milk storage containers and Miomee milk storage lids

The storage containers are fantastic and so convenient! They can be stacked on top of each other or slipped into a bottle for easy storage when out and about. They come with a couple of different lids so you can decide what works best for you. These are used every few days in our house and I cannot fault them in the slightest!! The lids are great for when you have expressed milk because you can leave it in the bottle and just screw the lid on and stack them in the fridge.

Tommee Tippee Cool Fish teether

This poor little fish has had the workout of its life these past few weeks with Miss H teething and I am so grateful. It has been amazing in helping soothe her sore and lumpy gums without me having to anything more than put it in the fridge to get it cold. Wonderful product!!

Tommee Tippee Feeding Pack & toy

I have talked about the Tommee Tippee feeding range previously on the blog which means I obviously us their products. There is a large selection of items to suit your little ones feeding needs. They have bowls, cups, fresh feeders, bottles, etc.; one of the things I love is that majority of the bowls come the lids making them useful when on the move as well. The fresh feeder is great when you want your little one to start trying fruit or not so smooth foods without the concern they’ll choke. It’s also great fro when they’re teething. Then there are the range of toys – did you know they did toys? Well they do – the squeaky hammer is a great one for both boys and girls – my daughter has a green one and loves it! WIN – 1 of 5 Tommee Tippee Feeding Packs valued at $32.65 each & squeaky hammer RRP $4.65 each.  (Each pack contains 1x fist solids bowl, 1x stickee bowl, 1x fresh feeder) & squeaky hammer.

   Happy Baby First Taste Feeding Set

This set is fantastic for your little one from about 4+ months or when they first start eating and will remain handy for years to come. The Happy Baby First Tastes Feeding Set contains 1x Click ‘n’ Go Bowl Set, 3x Snack Pots, 1x First Cup and 10x Disposable Bibs. My daughter loves the cup because it is easy to hold and drink; the position of the handles and angle of the cup makes it perfect for little ones to use. The spoon in the Click ‘n’ Go Bowl is great as well because it has a super soft tip and changes colour if the food is too hot. Overall this set is great for use at home and on the move as everything can be put into portions and taken with you which is another reason the disposable bibs are so handy. Stick some in your bag, nappy bag or pram for those feeds on the go. WIN – 1 of 5 Happy Baby First Tastes Feeding Sets & 10 pack of disposable bibs. RRP $33.50 each. Total Prize pool $167.50

 SKN Complex DNA 3 Step Anti-Aging system

Aging is one of those things that happen to us all but we don’t have to settle with those wrinkles that pave their way across our faces. We can look after our skin and do whatever we can to delay the aging the process. Using SKN Complex is a great way to start and with their DNA 3 Step Anti-Aging system your skin will be nourished and left feeling fresh. The cleanser gently exfoliates your skin and removes all the dead skin and toxins from the day leaving your skin soft and refreshed. Gently pat the toner on your face and with a cotton pad and it results in a gorgeously hydrated glow. The toner also helps to tighten pores in the skin which gives step 3 a better result. The second I put on DNA Youth Span (step 3) my skin felt revitalised and silky smooth. I love the way my skin looks and feels after just 1 week of using the 3 step system from SKN Complex. A little bit goes a long way so it will last quite a while. This is my new favourite skin care routine. WIN – 1x SKN Complex DNA 3 Step Anti-Aging system. RRP $127.00

2 KOOL 4 SKOOL

You all know I have a HUGE obsession with stationary and even more so now that I have kids in school. I may be a little protective of my office supplies especially when I sense the boys nearing them. This is because they never seem to be returned to my desk and always find their way to the homework drawer stash. No longer! 2 KOOL 4 SKOOL has just what the kids want (and need) for everything school related. Whether it be book covers that not only look great but also save us parents hours of wasted time by not have to wrap or contact each and every book or pencils, crayons, erasers, pencil cases to LEGO earphones, USBs, bags and even scratch & sniff labels. They have it all! If you have kids in school next year then I recommend having a look on the website for your back to school goodies. WIN – 1x Prize Pack as shown above.

Allen & Unwin – Happy Eva After by Chris Harrison

This book is engaging, witty and entertaining. It’s about an ordinary man, an English teacher (Sebastian) who is happily married or would like to believe he is happily married to his wife Sarah. She has realised that her biological clock is on the countdown and wants to start a family however Sabastian finds he sees more of the dog than his workaholic wife. As a result of Sarah being absent from Sebastians daily life there seems to a lack of communication between the couple and this becomes evident when he spends more time deciphering crosswords, talking to his dog and helping students with the English language. When the attractive new Czech student Eva arrives his life is suddenly changed as he finds himself in a sordid suburban tangle after his feverish imagination has led to him believe and misinterpret a situation. Happy Eva After is a seriously funny novel about a man, a marriage and a mysterious woman. WIN – 1 of 3 copies of Happy Eva After. RRP $29.99. Total prize pool $89.97

Dreambaby Retractable Gate

There are often times that require a safety gate to be used in the home especially when there are little ones on the move. We have a few stairs in our home and a bub who is starting to roll her way around; this is would be cause for concern if I didn’t have a safety gate in place. The retractable gate is fantastic for fitting both narrow and wider openings (up to 140cm). I love how easy this is to open, you can do it with just one hand and because it winds back into itself it is a great space-saver as well. I am impressed by the durability of the mesh used for the new black Dreambaby retractable gate and that this particular gate doesn’t create a tripping hazard. Being suitable for use indoors or outdoors it is perfect for every home. WIN – 1x Dreambaby Black retractable gate. RRP $89.95

Finlee & Me

Finlee & Me is an online store that has really catered to the needs of babies, kids and mums. If you’re after something soft and cuddly, something for your super hero, night light, educational or even a breastfeeding cover; they have it! The Snugglie is great for little ones because it has more than one use. It is brightly coloured and has a range of different textures which are fantastic for getting bubs attention, the ribbons are also good for smoothing gums when teething and the blanket to help keep drool to a minimum. It also has a dummy holder on it (I don’t use it for a dummy though, I hook a link through it so I can attach it to the pram and it won’t get lost). So very soft to snuggle. Another favourite of mine is for the toddler-preschool age which is the Drawing Set. It is very convenient to slip into your handbag when going out to appointments, car rides, etc. so your little one stays occupied. This gorgeous fabric wallet comes with a set of crayons and includes a notebook as well. Everything a budding little artist needs. For the older kids Finlee & Me have amazing A-Z Flash Cards & Wooden Blocks which are great for hungry little minds. These are a wonderful tool for those creative kids who are interested in building and design.

Air Hogs Hover Assault Eject

I have previously reviewed this product (you can read it here) and I can tell you that this would be on the top of most boys wish list for Christmas; I’m sure girls would love them too. My boys love the Air Hogs range and have many of them already and because I know that they are a lot of fun I have also gotten (well Santa has made) my boys the Hover Assault. Young or old they are a crowd pleaser – my husband has as much fun as the kids do with these. You can purchase these at Toys ‘R’ Us, Big W, Toyworld and Target. WIN – 1x Air Hogs Hover Assault Eject. RRP $75.00

Jujo Baby Zig-zag Jacquard Blanket

I have shared Jujo Baby products with you in past (like the shwrap) and for good reason. The quality and softness of their products are just amazing. The Zig-zag Jacquard blanket is made from 100% super soft cotton making it lightweight and ideal for the pram, cot or even when out and about. The size of the blanket is approx. 85x95cm which makes it large enough to be versatile and still small enough to carry around. The fibres are 100% natural making it a great choice for your baby or toddler and their soft sensitive skin. When I am buying anything material especially for a baby/kids it must be machine washable and this blanket ticks that criteria as well. WIN – 1x Jujo Baby Zig-zag Jacquard Blanket. Winner can choose between colours: cobalt blue and coral pink. RRP $64.95

Bosch IXO tool

We seem to be doing a fair bit of DIY at our place lately and something small, portable and lightweight like the Bosch IXO is ideal. It is so easy to use that even the kids could use it and as a result of its soft grip it doesn’t hurt your hands while using it. The IXO cordless screwdriver has a 3.6V Lithium-ion battery, weighs a mere 300g and yet is still powerful enough to get the job done. Make yourself or your DIY partner happy this Christmas with Bosch. WIN – 1x Bosch IXO. RRP $64.50

At Aunty Moggs Sock Monkey

I will start by saying that these sock monkeys are made with love and attention to detail. I have purchased 2 of these in the past for my boys for Christmas and was thrilled when At Aunty Moggs wanted to be part of this giveaway. The handmade monkeys are created from good quality socks and a wide variety of colours and patterns. The range doesn’t stop at just monkeys though; you will find ponies, reindeer and elephants too. WIN – 1 of 2 sock monkeys. 45cm tall. Pattern randomly chosen out of the 2 above. RRP $30.00 ea. Total prize pool $60.00

Trunki

When travelling with little people Trunki has your back. It is such a fun and exciting way for your little jet setter to get organised and excited whilst still being practical and ready for adventures. My boys had these when they were little and would use them even when we weren’t travelling. They would fill them up with all their favourite toys and ride along on their Trunki animal. It’s so much more than a travel bag for kids – it’s an animal, a car, a safe place for their treasured possessions and most importantly it’s a lot of fun! There are 9 different characters available (including the new Gruffalo) so there is definitely something to suit the little tot in your life. Trunki ride on suitcases are strong and durable yet very lightweight and easy to move. It can be used a few different ways – kids can ride it, parents can tow the kids on it or it can be used as a shoulder bag. Let your kids travel in style this holiday with a Trunki. Pack, Sit-on & Ride. WIN – 1x Trunki ride on suitcase. (Tiger) RRP $59.95

Love To INVENTA Sleep Bag™

Having a baby in the house again has required me to revisit all the products I thought I knew and I have discovered that in the 4 year gap between my last two babies so much has changed. My eyes have been opened to some incredible advances that are being used to make and improve many products; including baby sleeping bags. This Love To INVENTA Sleep Bag by Love To Dream in particular has many very handy features; some of which I never thought I’d see or think of for that matter. Firstly I want to say that this is very easy to put on bub and doesn’t require much effort as the studs and zip make it a simple process. The zip goes from the bottom and right up to the side so it makes nappy changes during the night seamless and it has the seatbelt slots making it easy access for travelling. The fabric used to make the lining in the Love To INVENTA Sleep Bag is breathable bamboo so it’s extremely soft on bubs skin and allows stretch for extra comfort. The Longa Shorta™ feature is great as well; it lets you adjust the length of the bag to suit your growing baby avoiding unnecessary loose fabric. My favourite thing about this sleep bag that really puts it above the rest and makes it really stand out is the Genius Cooling System™. It is a simple zip to open and close that helps you to moderate your baby’s temperature without waking them. It’s equivalent to having 1 leg in 1 leg out for adults – perfect body regulating! To check out how the Love To INVENTA Sleep Bag works go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVJZS3K3Ilk. WIN – 1x Love To INVENTA Sleep Bag (0.5 Tog) by Love To Dream. Winner can choose preferred size and colour. RRP $59.95

Cabbage Patch Kids – 30^th Anniversary

We have all seen and heard of Cabbage Patch Kids and chances are you’ve had one of your own, well they are now celebrating their 30^th Anniversary! I had one as a child and loved him more than anything – his name was Fabian. Today there are 12 different themes available but each ‘kid’ is one of kind; cowboys, princesses, fairies, soccer players and many more to fit into your family. I love that they still have the trade mark tattoo on the bum. CPK is still unique, fun and different but has also been modernised; they have personality, spunk and are just waiting for someone to love and adopt them. WIN – 1x Cabbage Patch Kid (randomly selected) RRP $59.00

 One Honney – Copacabana

I have only recently discovered this website as well and love it! You may remember on facebook a couple of weeks ago I asked which jumpsuit everyone preferred; well I ended up purchasing a handful of dresses and a couple of jumpsuits as well. They are absolutely gorgeous and made with great quality fabrics. The Copacabana is one of the jumpsuits I have been rocking around in lately and I LOVE IT!! It is so comfortable and easy to move around in as well as being cool enough for the hot days we’ve been having. My favourite thing about the Copacabana is that it hides my post baby jelly belly without looking frumpy; which is never a bad thing! All the outfits on the One Honney website are absolutely beautiful and scream fun. WIN – 1x Copacabana Jumpsuit. RRP $55.00

Babybjorn Potty Chair

The inevitable time in a toddlers life when they begin potty training is one that is both exciting and dreadful. It’s great they growing up and learning new things but with that comes the possibility of a lot of mess and uncertainty for parents whether to use a potty or try and train straight on the toilet. We all know every child is different so what works for one might not work for another and toilet training is no different. If you are in the market for a potty the Babybjorn Potty Seat is a great option. It is very strong, durable and has a high back support for when they like to take their time. The chair has a removable inner potty making as easy to keep clean – remove, empty and clean. One of my favourite things about this particular potty chair is that it has a high splash guard in order to minimise mess. I trust Babybjorn as a brand and use many of their products with my daughter so when the time comes for her to be toilet trained I will definitely be using this Potty Chair. WIN – 1x Babybjorn Potty Chair (grey in colour) RRP $54.95

Life! Live it up

I have shared my thoughts previously on some of the Life! products and I am so pleased to share with you all that they have now expanded their range to include POP Lounge which is made with expanding foam. It looks and sounds awesome. It comes vacuum packed in a box so when you want to use it you simply unpack, let it expand for 48 hours (this allows the compressed and shredded foam to expand) and then relax on your new comfortable lounger. The other new addition is the Tinny; a cooler with retro soul. With the capacity to hold up to 24 cans (17Ltr) and retain ice for up to 36 hours makes this ideal for barbeques, small camping trips, car rides, sporting events and even Christmas Day. These 2 new items are the perfect gift for those that are hard to buy for or who want something a little different but still great quality. WIN – 1x $50 Life! Gift Voucher

Flutterbye Fairy

I remember these from when my sister was little (well something similar to it) and they were so much fun. They have evolved so much since then though. I love the simplicity of these flying fairies and the enchantment that they bring to young girls (and boys). These are like the girl equivalent of Air Hogs remote control helicopters with a twist. Yes they are pretty, glittery little fairies that mystify by magically flying above your hand but the magic doesn’t end there; with the movement of your hand you can guide where she flies. WIN – 1x Flutterbye Fairy (chosen at random) RRP $49.95

Hunting For Ladybugs Handmade Items

This woman is a genius! You may remember me asking on facebook if anyone makes fabric notebook covers because I wanted to get some for my boys teachers for Christmas; Hunting For Ladybugs came to the rescue and made me 3 absolutely gorgeous ones at a very reasonably price! So when she submitted her details for this Christmas giveaway I was thrilled to see that her skills didn’t stop at notebook covers and branched out to include pencil cases, Christmas stockings, outfits, bags and even vanity bags. There is much more but I’d be here all day. The large vanity/toiletry bags are built with not only love and attention to detail; it’s also great quality that you can’t often find in stores. It is lined with cotton and made with thick fabric and plastic exterior allowing you to flip inside out and wash it or just give a quick wipe-over. They are about 20cm x 30cm x 15cm deep making them ideal for makeup or family toiletries on weekends away. WIN – 1x Large Vintage Caravan Vanity/Toiletry Bag. RRP $45.00  

Dimples & Whispers

I actually stumbled across this website whilst searching for something else and there are the most adorable things to be found at Dimples & Whispers. Whether you are in the market for soft cuddly toys and teddies, blankets, baby bath products, candles or newborn packs they have it! There are some wonderful and trusted brands available making this a go to online store. One of my favourite products on their website is the wonderfully soft and cuddly FlatoutBear Baby. These are absolutely adorable and because they are so small they are great for little hands.

I love that there are great quality, soft and organic toys for babies and children at affordable prices. Maud N Lil have got such a wonderful range that there is really something to suit every budget without sacrificing excellence. My 5 month old is absolutely loving her Ears Stick Rattle; she munches on the floppy ears and lets them tickle her face as she shakes it she gets excited by the rattle sound. I will add that it isn’t one of those really loud and annoying rattles, it is nice soft noise but still loud enough that bub enjoys hearing it. At 14cm long it is perfect for little hands. We have also welcomed Ears Bunny Comforter into home with open arms. So soft to touch and has the ability to hold a dummy, link or similar in his paw for safe keeping. At 30cm long, Ears is a cross between a blanky and a plush toy making him extra special to cuddle. I cannot emphasise enough how soft and beautiful these are! Not that they need to be praised anymore but these come in a gorgeous gift box and are machine washable for when they’ve been loved that little bit too much.

The post Tommee Tippee Toddler Feeding Giveaway appeared first on All Mum Said.

Every new parent knows the value of a good night sleep and will do whatever they can to assist this. I was very fortunate with my boys as they both slept extremely well at night, with the exclusion of waking up for a feed they pretty much slept through.

I am expecting this baby (due in 40 days) to be the complete opposite or at least that is what I am preparing myself for. I couldn’t be lucky enough to get 3 great sleepers surely! As you can see I’m under no illusions that all babies sleep well. With this in mind I have heard from mums of not so settled sleepers that babies often sleep better if they can hear mums heartbeat (I was even told when my first son was born to put a clock under the cot because the tick tocking resembles the heart beat), if there is a little night light in the room as reassurance, mums shirt nearby for the smell. Did any of these work for you?

This time I am armed with the new Miomee Musical Night Light. This little beauty has compacted everything you could need to keep bub calm during sleep time into one amazing piece of gadgetry! It is sleek, portable and so much more than just a night light; it’s genius. This product has the ability to sooth babies with comforting sounds of mums’ heartbeat, sounds of nature or a gentle melody and the option to play them continuously or set a 15 or 30 minute timer.

You can choose between 2 glowing colours. Pink – which simulates a mothers warmth and the sleepy dusk light & Blue – which creates a calm and tranquil sleeping environment with a serene blue ambience. It activates automatically when your baby cries and is chargeable with a power source that lasts approx. 7 hours. I love that it has so many functions – 3 sounds, 2 light colours, 2 timer settings and you can also choose whether you want light and sounds or light only. The glow is bright enough that you can see if you need to but doesn’t wake the babies or kids up.

I am a huge fan of how sleek the design is and how easy it is to use. It really caters for both parents and babies and with the light being portable it makes it easy to do middle of the night bed/cot transfers of babies and kids.

I don’t know about anyone else but when my boys were babies they were eating solids (well puree) by about 4 months. They were very hungry babies and enjoyed trying many different flavours.

I don’t know if baby #3 is going to be same but whether she starts eating early or the average age I will be prepared with the Tommee Tippee feeding range. Their innovation has no limits and is shown in the following products.

First Solids Bowl – This bowl is the perfect size for your little ones first feeding requirements. It has an easy grip handle for parents (left and right handed), it has an anti-spill lid that is great for storage and travelling. It has also got 2 separate compartments so you can store different foods at the same time or have variety while feeding. BPA free!
RRP: $11.95

Stickee Bowl – This is great for when they show an interest in feeding themselves or you just want that extra security in knowing they won’t spill the food everywhere. It also comes with a looped spoon for ease of use when they feed themselves. When my boys were little we tried suction bowls with no luck however this design is taking things to a whole new level, the bowl clicks into the base so it won’t move when your bub holds the side of the bowl and the best bit is they are very easy to clean. It has an anti-spill lid for travel and storage.  BPA free!
RRP: $13.95

Heat Sensor Spoons – These spoons are great for new parents who are unsure how hot/cold to have babies meals. The tip will turn white to indicate when food is too hot! The tip of the spoon is flexible and soft to be gentle on sensitive gums and the handle is long enough that you can easily reach the corners of jars. BPA free. 4x spoons per pack.
RRP: $9.95

Comfy Grip Fork and Spoon – Designed for when your little one is interested in feeding themselves, the wide scoop tips make it easy for bub to bring them to their mouths. The curved and cushioned handles are designed for little hands in mind. BPA free.
RRP: $7.95

Discovera Trainer Cup: This 260ml non-spill and shake proof cup is designed for 6 months+. It has a soft spout for easy drinking while remaining versatile, the spout top fits all Miomee bottles. BPA free!
RRP: $12.95

It doesn’t matter if you breastfeed, bottle feed or mix feed – finding the right bottles and milk storage containers can be hard. There is generally pros and cons to every item you find. You have noticed that Tommee Tippee has released its new Miomee range. Well I want to let you know that the quality of this range just what Tommee Tippee lovers have come to expect, know and love.

I have been testing out products from this range and want to share my findings about each item.

Bottles – I am a huge fan of how these teats are shaped to resemble a breast, I would think this would make it easier and cause less confusion to bub when you want to wean off the boob or mix feed. They have wide necks making it easy to fill, clean and sterilise. I love how they come in 3 different sizes – 150ml, 270ml & a whopping 340ml! For me personally it is vital that baby bottles are dishwasher and microwave safe and these pass that test with flying colours. Oh and did I mention they are BPA free?
RRP: 150ml 2pk $16.95, 270ml 1pk $11.95, 270ml 2pk $19.95, 270ml 4pk $34.95, 340ml 2pk $26.95

Insulated Bottle Bag – These bags are in one word – fantastic! They are versatile, durable, compact and very easy to clean. Bottles stay cool or warm for up to 8 hours and can fit 2x 150ml bottles/1x 270ml bottle + a breast milk & formula container/1x 340ml bottle + a breast milk & formula container inside at a time.
RRP: $22.95

Breastmilk and Formula Containers – This is convenience at its best when it comes to storing breast milk, formula or babies first solids when home or out and about. They are stackable making it easy to transport or store in the fridge and freezer. These come with 2 types of lids – easy pour lids and stackable flat lids (4 of each). Holding 70ml each this 4 pack is money well spent. Also BPA free!
RRP: $12.95

Milk Storage Lids – These are similar to the above stackable lids however they are designed to fit the Miomee bottles and Tommee Tippee discovera cups perfectly. They conveniently seal bottles to store or freeze milk/solids. Great for use at home or out and about, dishwasher safe and again BPA free. These come in a pack of 4 lids.
RRP: $11.95

Disposable Breast Pads – Just what every new mum wants to worry about. Hmmm, maybe not. I will definitely be using these when bub is born and my milk comes in. I did an absorbent test and was very impressed with the results and lack of leakage (there was none!) especially taking into account how thin they are. These pads fit perfectly into your bra and the double adhesive strips make sure they don’t move. They come with a little zippable carry case for easy storing and provide you with a little more discreetness when you are out. Each box contains 50 breast pads and carry case.
RRP: $ 14.95

Orthodontic Comforters – I personally have never seen a dummy shaped the way these are however when you think about it the shape makes perfect sense. They are designed with patented wings to protect against teeth and jaw misalignment. They are available in 3 sizes: 0-6 months (no teeth), 6-12 months (first teeth) & 12+ (milk molars). BPA free!
RRP: $7.95

First Drinking Cup – This non-spill and shake proof cup has easy to hold handles that are perfect for little ones just earning to use a cup. It comes with both a soft and hard spout to suit each stage that your baby reaches. I love that these spouts fit all discovera cups and are also BPA free. Ideal for 4 months+.
RRP: $12.95

I am amazed by the technology advancement in baby products since I was pregnant with my boys. Everything is much more innovative now than just a few years ago.

Did you come across new products each time you were pregnant or stuck with what you knew?
