We Still Got It!

While demonstrating some carriers last night, I grabbed my Wrapsody Bali Stretch and showed the customers how to tie it, and then put Ellie in just for old times sake.

We got this wrap when Ellie was about six weeks old, and weighed a little over six pounds. Here she is the first time I wore her in it. (Note - She's not in the safest position here. She should be more upright and less "folded up.")

She's now twenty-seven-and-a-half months old and probably about twenty-five pounds. How's that for versatile?!

She was just-up-from-a-nap sleepy at the time, so she lay her head on my shoulder and cuddled while I was talking with the customers.

I love the Connecta that we use these days, but it was so nice having her back in the wrap that we wore her in when she was brand new!

We Have a Winner!

Shana is the winner of the nursing necklace!

Please email me your shipping address at info@momandbabynaturally.com so I can send it to you.

Blog Issues

As soon as I posted about the contest, I found out that there was a problem with the blog's comments!

That's been resolved, and I've actually moved the blog from Word Press to Blogger, because I'm more familiar with it. I lost the old comments, but I think I got all of Kara's archived posts migrated without a problem.

It should all be working smoothly now, but if you see anything strange, please let me know.

Thanks for your patience while we work out some of the post-launch kinks.

And now you can go enter the nursing necklace contest for real!

Mom and Baby Naturally Now Under New Ownership

As you may have heard, Mom and Baby Naturally is now under new ownership. We’ve been working hard to add several exciting new products to the site, with more to come over the next few weeks and months.

To celebrate our Grand Reopening, we’re giving away a beautiful nursing necklace in the color of your choice. I’ll be posting all the details about that very soon.

In the meantime, I want to take a moment to tell you a bit about myself.

Before the birth of my daughter Ellie in October 2008, I had a varied career, which included stints as a middle school teacher, summer camp director, website and database developer, political coordinator, and learning center director.

Since then, I’ve been a stay-at-home mom, which has been both more challenging and more rewarding than any position I’ve held before.

I met Kara, one of the founders of Mom and Baby Naturally, during my pregnancy, when my partner Kristi and I hired her as our doula. She helped us to have the natural birth that we’d hoped for, gave us invaluable breastfeeding support during Ellie’s early weeks, and introduced us to the joys of cloth diapering and babywearing.

When I learned that Kara and her mom were planning to close the store, I jumped at the opportunity to help others to access the same great products that we have used, while continuing to be at home full time with my daughter.

I’m look forward to serving you and your family.

Solarweave Connectas

=SUMMER IS ON IT’S WAY!=
-Keeping  Cool with a Solarweave Connecta-

The  weather is finally warming up and thoughts are turning to Summer.
Carrying a baby can be hot work in the heat, and we have the ideal solution!

The Solarweave Connecta is possibly the lightest, coolest carrier on the
market.  Made from Solarweave fabric, which is incredibly strong and tightly
woven,  whilst  still being lightweight, it also protects baby from UV
radiation from the sun.

The  fabric  has been tested by an independant laboratory and shown to provide  SPF30+/UPF 40+  protection even after 40 launderings (equivalent to 2  years  of  wear and tear), and 100 hours of accelerated ultraviolet
exposure.

The fabric is 100% non-irritating, even to sensitive skin.

Made to our winning Connecta Baby Carrier design, with the addition of the
integrated sun/sleep hood, the Solarweave Connecta provides all of the
comfort in wearing you would expect.  Featuring a wide seat to keep baby in
the anatomically correct seated position, well padded shoulder straps and
comfortable wide webbing.  Yet it folds up amazingly small,  perfect for
packing in holiday suitcases!

In addition to the sun protection, solarweave fabric is also extremely quick
drying, and the Solarweave Connecta can be worn in the water at the beach or
pool, and also in the shower. (Not for use whilst swimming.)

This year the Solarweave Connecta is available in four different colourways.
Blackberry, Khaki, Scarlet Red and Pale Blue. (Blackberry and Khaki in stock now, preorders for Scarlet and Pale Blue are being accepted)
