NakedPaint Belly Butter

I recently got the chance to try out NakedPaint Belly Butter. This is a very rich moisturizing cream that is great for pregnant tummies. A little really does go a long way. I found the butter to be very moisturizing without being greasy. The best part for me was the delightful smell that comes from the addition of jasmine and heather oils. The fragrance was light and not at all overpowering. NakedPaint Belly Butter is geared toward expectant moms, but makes a great multi-purpose moisturizer for anyone.

Celebrities love NakedPaint too. Jennifer Garner and Mira Sorvino have used NakedPaint Belly Butter during their recent pregnancies.

Personalized Story Book!

I recently received a personalized story book, "The First Adventures of Incredible You," from Custom Made for Kids. The story was made for my 4 1/2 year old son, Ethan. Since I just had a new baby, I thought having something just for him would make him feel special.

The book was even better than I expected. The story was adorable and my son thought it was so cool that it was about him. He wants to read it over and over! The hardcover and the richly colored illustrations make this a really high quality keepsake. When ordering, you answer a series of questions regarding your child. (Such as the child's name, favorite park, playmates, etc.) The book is then made especially for your child. The story incorporates all the things that are special to your child and includes a dedication page so your child will always know this book was from you.

These personalized books would make perfect gifts and are a great way to get a young child into reading. Who doesn't want to read about themselves?

Cool Baby Bouncer!

I am 9 1/2 months pregnant and just received the Combi Pod Baby Bouncer. I can't wait to use this thing! Besides looking like a cool little insect, the Combi Pod Bouncer has great features that make it stand out from other bouncers on the market.

This bouncer has a seat that reclines for nap time, soothing vibrations and music. The music that comes with it is nothing great, but on the back of the bouncer is a place to connect your iPod (or other MP3 player). What a great idea! Now I'm not stuck listening to the same annoying song over and over. Now I just have to create a playlist for baby on my iPod...

The speaker on the bouncer isn't very powerful, but you wouldn't want it to be very loud anyway. The simple clean lines, wooden toys and modern colors really add to the appeal of this bouncer.

Check it out at http://www.amazon.com/Combi-Pod-Bouncer-in-Wasabi/dp/B0010BPM24.

Phthalate Free Baby Products!

The latest news surrounding the use of Phthalates and other Xenoestrogens in baby products is downright scary.

In a recent study researchers found evidence of chemicals called phthalates in the urine of 163 infants exposed to a baby product such as shampoo, lotion or powder. The true long term consequences of exposure are not fully known but exposing babies to these chemicals could hurt their reproductive ability later on in life.

To be safe, it would be wise to switch to Phthalate free baby products. Belli Cosmetics makes some great baby skin scare products without these potentially harmful ingredients. The Belli Baby Gift Set includes baby body wash, baby lotion and talc-free powder that is safe to use on your babies skin. Every product, including their pregnancy skin care line, is allergy tested and free of artificial dyes, fragrances, pthalates, and other xenoestrogens.

Read more about these potentially harmful chemicals in this ABC News article.

Note: At Stella Maternity, we are also currently looking into offering more baby skin care and other baby products that are free from these chemicals.

Stowers Swaddling Blankets

Any new parent can tell you that swaddling an infant will help to calm a baby and get them to sleep longer. What new parent doesn't want that?

Stowers Swaddling Blankets help to make swaddling a little easier for tired parents. The super soft lightweight cotton flannel blankets have a pocket at the feet and velcro at the top. This makes the tricky technique of swaddling your baby easy! The Stowers Swaddler was created by a labor/delivery, post-partum, newborn nursery nurse with extensive knowledge of the fine art of swaddling. She created the swaddler to make it simple for anyone to learn.

Swaddling reminds infants of the womb, which helps to calm and comfort even fussy babies. Swaddling also helps to increase the duration of sleep, by minimizing the "startle" reflex that can cause a baby to jerk his arms and wake himself up.

Check out all the styles available at http://www.stowersswaddler.com and get some rest!

Fall Maternity Clothes!

Fall is here and it is the perfect time to update your maternity wardrobe with some stylish and warm maternity clothes.

Layers are key to staying comfortable in the unpredictable weather. Try pairing a long sleeve maternity tee with a lightweight maternity jacket and a pair of great fitting maternity jeans for a stylish and versatile outfit. Another good bet is a long sleeve maternity hoody over a maternity tank top.

Maternity dresses can be paired with boots or tights to welcome the cooler weather. For a truly versatile dress, try the Japanese Weekend 3-in-1 maternity dress/crop top/skirt.

Don't forget to also pamper your skin with a great belly oil or belly butter. Pregnancy skin care is especially important in the fall and winter when skin can become chapped and itchy.

Baby Clothes with International Flair!

Il Cocco di Mamma makes some super cute and soft baby tees with international sayings printed on them.

I recently checked out the soft, baby blue "bello" lap tee. (Bello is Italian for handsome.) What an adorable shirt for a baby boy. They also make a pink version with "bella" (beautiful) printed on the front.

My favorite has to be the "cielo" organic baby onesie. (Cielo is Spanish for Heaven Sent.) The organic European cotton is extremely soft and the Spanish saying is so sweet for a new baby. The front of the onesie features blue clouds around the word "cielo" and printed on the back of the onesie is the English translation. Stylish, sophisticated and organic. What more could a mom ask for?

Check out all the styles at Il Cocco di Mamma.com. Ciao!

New Spa-like Belly Casting Kit

Every pregnant women should make an imprint of her bulging belly to keep as a reminder of this amazing time. Belly casts make great nursery room artwork and keepsakes. I hung my own in my son's nursery with a simple white ribbon.

Belly Vita makes an interesting casting kit that I look forward to trying out next time I'm pregnant. It is touted as more of a spa experience than just another messy casting kit. The Belly Vita Belly Imprint is made with a single piece of sculpting fabric, instead of the strips most use. The best part is that the kit also includes an aromatherapy Balancing Belly Oil to be massaged on your belly as the first step in the casting process. The belly oil contains lavender, neroli, frankincense, palmarosa and rosewood. Besides smelling great, these essential oils are said to help prevent stretch marks and are safe for pregnancy. Plus, you can use the extra oil for a foot massage (something a very pregnant woman would certainly appreciate).

Practical and Beautiful!

This bottle drying rack from Skip Hop is too cool. It looks like a piece of modern art but performs the most mundane of duties. The perfect place to dry up to nine bottles, nipples and valves. It even includes a brush to get at the little milk ring that's always left at the bottom of baby bottles. The hard part is choosing which color you want.

Marcia Cross Loves Being A Mom!

In People magazine's newest issue, Marci Cross talks about being a mom and loving every minute of it.

Marcia Cross, 45, and her husband Tom Mahoney welcomed their twin daughters, Eden and Savannah, on February 20th. Marcia told People, "I wanted to be a member of that club so badly, and now I'm in and it's so much better than I even imagined." She even enjoys the predictable routine. "I'll tell you my routine – it's really exciting. I feed, I burp, I change diapers, I pump. And then I have a tiny window of time to myself."

Cross and Mahoney, 49, struggled to become parents. "We did in vitro a week after we got married. We were supposed to go to Greece and Paris and have this fancy honeymoon, and I said, 'Let's stay put and see if we can't give this baby a chance.' " Marcia became pregnant with twins, but the struggle didn't end there. Cross developed preeclampsia, a disorder that raises blood pressure and threatens both mother and baby, four weeks before her due date. The doctors quickly scheduled a cesarean section and she gave birth to Savannah, 6 lbs. 7 oz., and Eden, 5 lbs. 10 oz. Marcia exclaimed, "I had over 12 lbs. of baby in me!"

Now that Cross is home with the twins, she is mastering the art of breast feeding two babies at once. She also isn't totally ruling out the possibility of having more children. "I'm probably done...but I certainly can see why people keep going. I'm in heaven right now."

Congratulations Marcia and Tom!

Charlotte Church Announces Pregnancy!

Singer Charlotte Church announced her pregnancy today.

Charlotte posted on her web site that she and her boyfriend, Gavin Henson, are "delighted." Church went on to say, "In an ideal world, we would not have made this announcement so early in the pregnancy. However, due to recent speculation and persistent questions from the media about this most private of matters, Charlotte felt she had no choice other than to go public and she was keen to ensure that her fans had the opportunity to read the truth here first." Rumors started circulating when Church was seen abstaining from alcohol at her 21st birthday party.

Welsh born Charlotte has performed for Pope John Paul II and President Clinton. She was named GQ's Woman of the Year in 2005. Her boyfriend, Gavin, is a rugby star.
