Wonder why your diaper bag weighs 40 lbs?

Because marketers tell you, you must have all these things in order to survive outside of the home with your baby. Oh my gosh, you must have this nursing cover because a sweater or your jacket just won't do!

I mean what if you bought this lovely green pattern and happened to be wearing a clashing color that day - should I get it in multiple colors and coordinate with my outfit before walking out the door?



The Generation Nursing Cover; it looks like an apron, maybe the apron you already have will do?

Oh my eyes are burning!

Okay maybe that title was too harsh. And maybe I'm not qualified to comment on the things a baby will actually WEAR. I haven't actually "had" my baby yet, so the reality that I will have to dress it hasn't really sunk in. And who knows if I will develop this undeniable urge to dress it UP like a flapper?? Gosh I sure hope not.

But still, this is just silly looking. I mean it won't even keep baby's head warm, there are giant holes in the crochet pattern :)

Is that a curtain, or are you just happy to see me?


My first installment! Welcome! In this blog I hope to uncover the silly, silly, maniacal world of baby and infant merchandise. I myself will be a mother in about 5.5 months and I quickly vowed not to fall prey to their evil marketing ways.

Let's start things off right. What the HECK is this? When the thousands of other practical baby carriers out there won't do, and you just MUST have silk, and you just must look like you're about to step out for an awards show...go for the Silk Ring Sling. Say that 5 times fast. Just don't ever wear it. Please.


Dunno how smart it is....The Baby So Smart Silk Ring Sling
