Pacify Your Baby Naturally!

Going green? Go all the way! Eco Piggy has a new all natural pacifier for babies.

The Eco Piggy pacifier is made of pure rubber from the rubber tree (Hevea Brasiliensi). Besides being 100% natural, PVC and phtalate-free, the protein that may provoke a latex allergy is removed from the rubber mass used for these pacifiers, so there is also no risk of latex allergy. The resulting pacifier is naturally softer than silicone and even makes a wonderful teether.

This natural pacifier is a great way for eco-conscience moms to soothe their fussy babies. The clear "coca cola" brown color of the pacifier is natural looking and a nice change from standard pastels.

Hip Baby Announcements!

Ringo Baby makes the most hip and stylish baby announcements I have ever seen.

Their unique baby announcements are sophisticated instead of cutesy. The line includes announcements, invitations, thank you cards, holiday cards, baby bookmarks and even magnets and CD covers.

The personalized CD covers are one of my favorites. A selection of special songs is such a great way to announce a new baby. The covers come with coordinating stick-on CD labels and are perfect for giving as announcements or baby shower favors. The bookmarks and refrigerator magnets are also truly unusual ways to introduce your newborn.

I'm six months pregnant myself and having a hard time deciding which one to choose from all the great styles.
