Really nice I really like this. Short of spending untold amounts on an organic or natural mattress, there's little alternative to keeping your baby from sleeping on vinyl. Most of the mattress pads I saw were lined with vinyl or very thin and didn't provide much of a buffer between my baby and the vinyl lining on her mattress. This provides that natural sleeping surface I'm looking for, and it lets her skin breathe, as opposed to sleeping on vinyl and sweating. I'm not sure it really helps keep her warm in the winter, as the de ion claims, but it definitely creates a cushioned, snuggly topper that makes her cozy (I'm no authority, but it's not so fluffy that I have safety concerns; I started using this when she was ~4mo old).
Cleaning is a breeze in the washer and I hang it dry. I use a wide comb to fluff the wool afterward, but it may not even be necessary. If you put it in the dryer on no heat, it would probably work the same.
Bottom line- I would definiteyly recommend it and I'm glad I got it. It makes the mid-range mattress we bought seem like a very high-end mattress. :)
Our Generation Sally ballet dancer My 3 year-old daughter is not really into dolls that much, but I was surprised when I saw her playing with the Sally doll. Some of the accessories that she came with did not hold up through the first hour like the toy cd. But the doll appears to be pretty sturdy and the perfect size for the 2 and 2 year olds. Her hair is a bit hard to comb and little girls like to come doll's hair. But other than that she seems to be a good new friend for my little girl. I would recommend her, and an added insentive is that she is the perfect size for many of the maggie and zoe dresses, polly and friends, cinderella and American girl doll clothes, (even the ones with the matching girl dresses, so the child and doll can dress alike).
Nipples Different One set is the ones I use and the next are totally different. The ones I don't like are Birth-12 months ones, My 2 y/o has a hard time sucking. The ones i use are the all stage, Like I thought I was purchasing. I didn't return them too much of a hassle.
Waste of money! I was looking for a bottle that would be more natural like a human nipple. I BF and wanted my baby to use a bottle.
There is another item out there that is a soft boob like bottle with a nipple that is also soft and sprays from several holes. That is what you probably want.
This nipple is too wide, and hard. It is NOT like a real nipple. The bottle is too large. If anyone wants to buy the 2 bottles I have, I will go sell them on craigs list.
