The Sophie {FREE SHIPPING & 15% DISCOUNT}

Monday, January 25th, 2010

 Hi my pregnant friends :-)   How are you feeling today?  All pregnancies are different, some are glorious the entire 9 months others can start off lousy but end up wonderful.  Regardless of how many weeks you are pregnant you might be experiencing back pain, 70% of pregnant women has lower back pain during their pregnancy.   Well ladies, there’s no need to be any more uncomfortable than you absolutely have to be :-)  

Mommy Love is a unique company that offers you a real product to help relieve lower back pain.  I’ve looked around, the pillow options for pregnant women are really non existent.  There are BIG pillows that are boomerang shaped and nice to sleep with on your side but that isn’t helping your lower back pain.  There is this one really foreign looking prone(on your belly)  position cushion that is almost $300.00 and looks plastic, hard and very constraining. 

So I’ve found you, The Sophie Prone Pregnancy Cushion ! Curious?  This innovative cushion is great for any trimester! It has many uses that include Napping, Massage Therapy, Physical Therapy, and Transition for Stomach Sleepers, Resting, & More. The unique design allows pregnant women to lie safely and comfortably, by utilizing the support blocks that come with every Sophie.

The Sophie allows expecting Moms to ease back pain by pulling pressure away from your back, encourages the baby to change positions helping the baby develop, and most importantly, relieving pressure on the spine! The first COST EFFECTIVE patented product that allows expecting moms to get back on their stomachs, get massaged, and get the extra relief they need by being in the prone (on your belly) position. Now included with covers at no additional charge! The Sophie is the only clinically accepted pregnancy cushion on the market that relieves lower back pain. The complete pregnancy cushion for every expecting mom! 

Since I am not pregnant my good friend reviewed this product as a guest editor for us at BabyLuxe Daily.  Here is what she had to say, “  I used the Sophie cushion often until my belly got in the way of my comfort with the pillow.  It is a unique contraption for sure with the comfort of mommy in mind ” :-)

THE SOPHIE WITH BLOCKS

THE SOPHIE WITH BLOCKS

The Sophie product come with one cover of your choice, support cushion, two side support blocks, and one head cushion. The support blocks, in combination with The Sophie, can add needed support as the uterus expands during each trimester of pregnancy. Each one of these blocks can be used for various positions during pregnancy. The head cushion, and side support blocks, can be used as a side wedge, leg support, and lower back support while sitting in a chair, or any other position you feel these blocks can be utilized for support.

Another really fantastic feature of the cushion is that you can definitely use it after delivery when your stomach is still big.  You might be craving to sleep on your belly but it might not feel so wonderful right after giving birth :-)   So use the cushion as a transition back to your flat bed.   Nice!   And at this price you can afford to be comfortable.  Get some sleep mom :-)

 

The Sophie  will be featured at  The Baby Kid Expo in April in Saint Louis.  A clinical version of The Sophie  is coming out this week. It is specifically designed for Massage therapy, Physical Therapy, and Chiropractors.  The Sophie will be featured in the April issue of Pregnancy & newborn.

ALERT!    USE CODE babyluxe WHEN CHECKING OUT TO RECEIVE A 15% DISCOUNT ON YOUR VERY OWN SOPHIE!  FREE SHIPPING TOO! ENJOY

patemm pad {DISCOUNT}

Changing tables and I do not get along anymore.  For the past several months I’ve been changing my toddler on the floor…not an easy task to do and not to sterile for my carpets!  The story behind my anti-changing table persona:  I never used the straps that hold the babies down!  I know, slacker on my part, but I never took my eyes of my babies while changing them on the table either.  I was always right there and for 5-6 years worth of changing babies on the tables, all went well.  Until a few months back, I dropped the wipes case and bent down to pick it up.  In a matter of 2.5 seconds, Aidan had stood up and walked himself backwards off the table, falling upside down {head first} into the clothes hamper {luckily full of soft clothes to break his fall}.  I never again used the changing table and we took it down that night!  I was so upset with myself…but of course took it out on the table!  {I laugh about it now only because please imagine what I saw when I stood up, Aidan was not scared not crying, but 2 little legs were shooting straight up out of the hamper, I couldn’t see his upper body at all!}  A lesson to be learned of course, a humorous story to tell, and now a product to share to save your carpets from dirty bottoms {whether or not you have an evil changing table}.

I have admired patemm pads from a far for a while now…especially since my changing table episode, and when they sent a couple samples the other day, I was over-joyed at how brilliant and perfect these truly are, for purposes at home and a far!  What do you see that’s different?  HELLOOOO…they are round…not rectangle, what baby do you know that just stays in one spot on a rectangle pad…let them wiggle around, and around, and around on their patemm pad!  We use ours obviously on the floor {anywhere throughout the house but mostly in the nursery} and it’s extremely comfortable for Aidan, large enough for him as a toddler, yet small enough to not take up a lot of space while being used {and of course folds up so neat when done}, AND, with pockets to hold wipes, dipes, and clothing, it’s the best portable changing table ever made!

Even better, their GOTS collection is 100% organic cotton, super gentle and soft for your little tushies {machine washable too}!  Need a place for your infant to have some tummy time or just a place for them to hang out while you are at a play date, these are perfect!  See how they fold up so nice with built in handles??  More eco-friendly facts:  all patemm pads are PVC, Lead, Phthalate, Latex, BPA, and Formaldehyde-Free, perfectly safe for your babies!  The Laminated Cotton collection is what we use as a replacement for our changing table…it’s their newest collection: eco-friendly, PVC-free, and stylish prints in CPSIA certified laminated cotton, 100% regular cotton, and 100% Certified Global Organic Textile Standards (GOTS) cotton.  Wipes off nice and easily, my carpets are safe!

The designs are unique and gorgeous, boys, girls, or gender neutral…there’s a pattern for every personal style!  Think 2010 Baby Showers and stock up, taking 10% off your orders at patemm with the code GreenLuxe from now until January 31st.

Pukies {DISCOUNT & GIVEAWAY}

Thursday, January 21st, 2010

Organic has done it again!  If you are looking for a clothing line that is 1. organic 2. colorful 3. stain resistant 4. hides your babies lunch mess? WHAT? YES!  I have found a collection for you :-)

Isn’t the name hilarious!  Pukies is a clothing line made of SOY GENIUS fabric.  Samantha Asay and creative partner Mark Granchai have designed an organic cotton soy fiber fabric with a bit of spandex that comes in colors matching your babies latest dinner entree :-) The collection is so unique in that Mark designs simple fun whimsical patterns to disguise your babies food splattered onesie and Samantha has cleverly chosen colors resembling “what was for dinner”.   All Pukies products are made with Soy Genius fabric, a soft, luxurious fabric made from a blend of natural soy fibers and organic cotton.

We received this adorable “ketchup” onesie with these fun features, long-sleeves, super shoulder snaps for easy on/off,  the super-soft soy and organic cotton blend fabric makes it difficult for food stains to stick, comfortable & eco-friendly, clever & adorable.   My favorite feature of these clothes is the spandex blended fabric.  Yes I love that the line is organic and natural but dressing a busy 7 month old can be very tricky, if a garment allows for some pulling and tugging then it’s doing me and my baby a huge favor.

Noah enjoys wearing his Pukies outfit.  The pants we received are so comfortable, how do I know, I can see they don’t cut into his buddha belly, the fabric is light, stretchy and really soft.  The cargo pants have reinforced knees and ample room for diapers. Comfortable elastic keeps ‘em where they belong, the super-soft soy and organic cotton blend fabric makes it difficult for food stains to stick.  So what more can you ask from a piece of clothing?

Pukies are stain friendly accessories and gifts.  The fabric is amazing, 56% Organic Cotton that is free of toxic chemicals, biological and sustainable growth methods utilized,  no synthetic and destructive fertilizers, herbicides, insecticides nor pesticides.  37% Soy Fiber, buttery soft is the very best way to describe the feeling of the fabric, naturally antimicrobial, wicking action makes it difficult for most stains to set, made from the by-product of soybean production, sustainable, renewable and biodegradable.  Lastly, 7% Spandex, adds stretch and versatility which is my favorite feature of these clothes, tightens knit to provide a UPF 30+ rating, increases the life of a garment!

Take these items as your gift at the next baby shower you attend.  The recipient will LOVE your unique, eco friendly, thoughtful idea!

Pukies is an innovative company bringing you a collection of clothes this spring that protects your children from insect bites!  Buggies is the new line of insect shield repellent apparel that you most definitely will want to sample this mosquito season!   Kids are just more susceptible to insect bites, lower to the ground, moving slower.  My son gets bit unmercifully all summer long.  He actually has to be perscribed medicine for his bites because he has a local reaction!  :-(   So you know I will be shopping this new line when it launches!

Enjoy a 15% discount now through March 30th on all Pukies products! Have fun shopping ;-) USE GREEN15 WHEN CHECKING OUT.

GIVEAWAY ALERT! One lucky BabyLuxe {daily} reader will win a $25.00 Pukies coupon by simply commenting back to us your favorite playwear, bib, gift set or accessory!   Contest ends in one week! Good Luck! Open to US residents only!  Check out Pukies for further fun on their Facebook page!
