Relieve Teething Pain with MAM Teethers & Giveaway

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.


My son is currently in the major teething stage! Drool, whining, restless sleep...I feel so bad for him and the pain he has to go through!

There isn't much we can do as parents to help a teething baby but we want to alleviate their pain as much as we can! I do this by offering my son MAM Teethers! I especially like the ones we can stick in the freezer so that it is nice and soothing on his gums!

Check out our favorites for teething time:

Bite & Relax Phase One and Clip


Designed for teething babies age 2+ months, MAM Bite & Relax Phase One features a flattened mouthpiece that provides teething relief directly at the front gums, right where baby’s first teeth appear. Its functional design features four textured surfaces and allows baby’s lips to easily close while the teether is in use. The familiar shape of its curved outer shield helps baby keep the teether in place - just like a pacifier. An easy-to-use clip safely attaches to baby’s clothes to keep it within reach.


Suggested retail price: $6.99

Bite & Play


Part toy, part teether, the innovative MAM Bite and Play provides relief and entertainment for teething babies. Multiple surfaces, including a u-shaped cooling ring, provide varied relief options for baby’s sore gums.


This unique teether also helps support baby’s development; a rattle component helps sharpen baby’s hearing and multiple textured surfaces help develop baby’s sense of touch. The MAM Bite and Play also has a unique curved design, making it easy for baby to pick up, play with and chew. Recommended for babies age 5+ months.


Suggested retail price: $6.99.

MAM Bite & Brush Teether


The MAM Bite & Brush Teether compliments daily oral care by gently cleaning baby’s first teeth. Sensitive gums are instantly soothed b y the gentle massaging action provided by the teether’s unique soft bristles. Its extra lightweight design and innovative ring shape make this teether easy for baby to hold. Recommended for babies age 3+ months.

 Suggested retail price: $6.99



And it turns out it isn't just me loving the MAM's Teethers! Recently, the MAM’s Bite & Brush Teether won the 2015 What To Expect “Editors’ Picks” Award in What to Expect.com’s Second Annual “Moms Love-It” Awards recognizing excellence in baby registry products! It is a favorite for moms and babies!

My son is also starting to drink from a cup and he starting learning with the Learn to Drink Cup with Hard Spout!


Designed for babies ready to learn how to drink from a regular cup, this MAM Learn to Drink Cup features a hard spout to help prepare baby for the next phase of development. Available in a 9 ounce size and recommended for babies age 8+ months. Suggested retail price: $6.99.

RaZbaby Keep It Kleen Pacifiers

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.


It is that time of the year again when infants and children will start to feel the effects of cold and flu season.

Last year, thousands of children got sick from the flu and according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a little more than 100 died from the disease. So it is important that parents are prepared for the onset of the bug. Check out this fun, cute and helpful idea to help parents make it through this upcoming cold and flu season, without too many sleepless nights.


Baby dropped that pacifier? Don’t worry-- each RaZbaby Keep It Kleen pacifier features a revolutionary clasp that automatically closes over the nipple of the pacifier when dropped, so the nipple never comes in contact with dirty floors or fingers- perfect during those busy trips with baby in toe. I hate the dreaded "pacifier drop" especially in the middle of a store or errand when the baby is already crying and crabby! NEVER AGAIN with this Keep It Kleen pacifier!


Choose from dozens of adorable animals, decorative designs, even sports themes, then personalize the paci with baby’s name printed right on it. I love the football pacifier that is perfect for using during the games of the current football season. The polka dot and monkey designs are super cute too!

And best of all, these pacifiers are BPA-free and baby safe and Keep It Kleen pacifiers are for designed for newborns to 36 months.

  • Silicone Orthodontic Nipple

DayDreamer Sleeper

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.


As a mother of a newborn, I am always looking for ways to help my baby be comfortable, see the world, and, of course, sleep better. And what is even worse is when a baby is sick and can't breathe very well lying down. I dread my baby getting a cold...it makes them so miserable, especially at night!

The DayDreamer is a lifesaver at times like that! It is the perfect inclined sleeper to help comfort your infant when breathing is difficult. DayDreamer Sleeper is a luxurious and soft sleeper that will help cradle babies, creating a more natural sleeping position to help babies fall asleep faster and sleep more soundly. It is a perfect place for naptime and during the nighttime, great for when baby is congested and has difficulty lying on their backs. Created by an infant product specialist, the DayDreamer Sleeper’s flat base is designed to keep the Sleeper stable when baby is awake and moving, while the high walls prevent toys and bottles from falling out of the Sleeper and onto the floor.


It also featured an adjustable 3-point safety buckle to help prevent baby from climbing, rolling or falling out, while the gentle 28° incline is designed to keep your bundle of joy in a comfortable lounging or sleeping position. The soft, moisture-wicking fabrics and ventilated inner core help keep your little one cool and comfortable, and the waterproof seating area helps contain accidents.



I also love that it is easy to wash - which will end up happening all the time with baby spit up and poop always happening it seems! :) It features an easy-to-remove, soft fabric cover that is machine washable for convenient cleaning!

I also love how it is so lightweight and portable - I can move it to the kitchen so my son can watch me cook, take it to Grandma's house for an easy place to sit, and the stable base design rests securely on the ground.


It is available in Blue, Pink or Sage so it will fit all genders!

And most importantly it is quality tested for safety and durability and exceeds standards outlined by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

If you are looking for a portable, comfortable and easy to use place to set your baby to look around or have baby sleep, try out the DayDreamer Sleeper!

Buy It: 

You can purchase the DayDreamer Sleeper for $129.99 from Babies R Us.

Burt's Bees Baby

A product was given for review for my honest opinion.


One of my favorite parts about a newborn baby is their soft, soft skin! And one of my main goals as a mother of my newborn is to protect this smooth, soft and very sensitive skin!

That is why I dress my son in organic cotton clothes whenever possible! It is not only natural and breathable fiber, but it is made without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers and thus no residues in the fabric. Best of all, it is SO SUPER SOFT just like my baby's skin!

So what company offers super cute and super soft 100% organic cotton clothing for your baby? Burt’s Bees Baby does and you will love them! These clothes are adorable and super soft as well!


You may have heard of Burt's Bees before since Burt's Bees has been creating products we all love for decades —natural skin, body, and hair care we trust for ourselves, our families, and the world that nurtures us. They are committed to using only organic cotton, with mindful considerations of our world and the world of our children's future.

Organic cotton washes well, and not only does it hold up beautifully through wash after wash, it gets even softer over time, all the while maintaining a great fit. It is one of my favorite reasons to use organic cotton!


I received the super cute Henley Pocket Footless Coverall from Burt's Bees Baby and my son looks adorable in it!


It is 100% organic cotton and features coconut buttons on the placket. It fits my son perfectly and will be the cutest outfit for him to wear this winter!


As you can see, my son LOVES the outfit too and couldn't stop smiling!


The material is so soft and the outfit is stretchy and comfortable so my son is free to move in all directions wherever and whenever he wants. It is also warm enough for winter but not too warm to overheat him.

I love looking through the super cute selection for girls and boys on the Burt's Bees Baby website - they are all adorable...and, most importantly, organic and safe for my baby's skin.

Buy It: 

You can purchase Burt's Bees Baby clothes at burtsbeesbaby.com, babiesrus.com, and select Babies ‘R Us store locations.
