When I first started chatting with Lana from Clementine Rose we had talked about working together on my blog but I was so torn. I LOVE so many things in her shop but I can't lunge my favorites into my shopping cart until I know if the little one I'm carrying is a he or a she.
Even silly little things like hooded towels make a difference to me. Call me silly but if Spawnie is a girl most everything must be pink! It's my favorite color and my girl will just have to wear it until one of us tires of it. As I browsed around I found something I thought could work whether boy or girl. I got the Camden Baby Sling.
I know I want to be a baby wearing mama... I have loved the idea of pretending to be a kangaroo since I saw my first baby sling. Now I can't get enough of them. If it weren't for me not knowing what Spawnie is yet I'd probably have several by now, but for my first one I decided to go with my favorite, which happened to be blue (and cause deep down I know Spawnie is a boy).
One of my best friends had a baby a few months ago and her little girl is who I like to call my "test baby." She adorable, photogenic, and happy! I couldn't ask for a better model. ...She's also Spawnie's future BFF or girlfriend!
First off, Happy Birthday to mommy Heidi! (I had to through that in there). My model friend Heidi bought a baby sling for her baby Zoila a few months ago so I asked her to compare mine to the one she has. At first glance she told me that mine was a lot bigger and softer than hers.
When she put Zoila in she said it was really comfortable... And unlike her other sling, baby Zoila likes it!! I couldn't help but snap a few cute pictures.
I'm not gonna lie, one reason I'm pretty excited about having a carrier to hold my baby in is so (hopefully) I can still do some browsing online after becoming a busy mom, with Spawnie hanging right on me!
I've heard some pros and cons of baby wearing but I think if it works for us, I will definitely be a baby wearing mama!Here's a little more about Clementine Rose:

ReplyDeleteaudrey baby zabu large. :D
i love the amanda modern floral diaper bag. so cute!
ReplyDeleteI would love either the Emily baby sling or the super soft fold over pants. Since I JUST found out I was pregnant, I think those pants might come in handy. :-) The baby clothes are way cute...but who knows what I'm going to need Pink or Blue!
ReplyDeleteWoops, forgot to mention I also follow your blog.
ReplyDeleteI would totally get the Camden baby sling too. I liked the Emily sling as well, but I think Camden wins out.

ReplyDeleteOh I so would love a Camden baby sling! I am about to have my third so I know my hands are going to need to be free, and I HATE the carrier I already have.
ReplyDeleteI follow your blog! Thanks for a great giveaway
ReplyDeleteMy pregnancy tip for you is to try and somehow not be too anxious/excited for the baby. I remember with my first one I kept thinking, when I so want the baby... but newborns while wonderful are a lot of work. So enjoy this time, get a few extra things for you done as your life is about to be a lot busier but wonderful too.
ReplyDeleteI have your button! Hope to win

ReplyDeleteI would get the emily baby sling - I've been searching for a good sling for awhile ... I would be ecstatic to get this cute one!!
ReplyDeleteAND I'm a fan of your blog on facebook :)

ReplyDeleteI would get either get a sling (brown w/blue poka dots) or a nursing cover (all colors are sweet) OR the cute black & white changing pad (circle design).
ReplyDeleteSo many things to choose. I bookmarked the site so that when I know this little bug inside me is going to stay long term I will purchase lots of goodies.

Not entering the contest, just leaving a comment.....Your sling seems so comfortable. I really wish I had one for my children. It would have made everything so much easier. Newborns want to be held all the time, so that leaves no time for mom to do anything. But with the sling, it seems a mom could accomplish so much while holding the baby.
ReplyDeleteI think I would get the Mint Chocolate Hooded Towel for my little nephew. It is just so cute!

ReplyDeleteEither one of their beautiful nursing covers (LOVE the Aero!) or the Amanda Modern Diaper Bag. Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteI'm pregnant, too (due in May) and am also a mom of a toddler. My tip:
ReplyDelete* about a month before your due date, be sure to get at least 8 hours of sleep a day any way you can (at nights, sleeping in, naps-- I know it's tough at this point, but 8 hours cumulative!). Being well rested will make labor easier and give you the strength for delivery. Also, it'll be awhile before you get 8 hours of sleep again. :-) Make sure you are really well hydrated that month, too... trust me, it'll help!
