A Top 10 List on Ranker

Guess I never really took the time to search the web...but there are other people out there who also get the humor in this whole baby industry and want to share the joy!

Here is a write-up on Ranker by a user called "theothermother" with her top 10 Worst Baby Products. Before reading, I will warn you, you may not agree with ALL 10 items ... but go in with an open mind and allow yourself to see the humor in this all :)

Baby Bangs, it's like a wig for infants!

When your baby boy sprays you with love

I probably have no idea - this could be a life saver if you have a little boy. And they pee way up in the air while you're changing their diaper.

I still don't know what we're having - we've decided to go old school and keep it a surprise. So if we have a boy and I end up buying these I WILL indeed eat my words. But really...would you buy these?? Why not use a handy towel or baby wipe nearby? I mean with one wiggle or squirm by your baby (I mean they squirm when you change them, am I right?!) this thing's got to fall out of place.

Pukies, and other Bad Product Names

Okay so this post is a little different. I'm not going to say these items are "unnecessary" but I have another grievance. Why is it the baby industry seems to foster all these horrible product/company names?!

Case in point, Pukies Eco-Friendly Clothing. Okay I get it, so they describe their product as "designed to disguise the mess kids create and to hide the fact that kids wear what they eat!" I think that's a great concept and I love that they're eco-friendly. Two pluses! But why on earth do you need to call them Pukies??

How about a few more:

My Breast Friend: Nursing pillow (Ugh, just ugh. Gettin' all Dr. Seuess for breastfeeding huh?)
Hooter Hiders: Ok so I probably don't even nee to tell you what this product does (ok if you must - it's a nursing cover up) but don't remind me of cheap hot wings when I'm thinking of mother's milk
Diaper Dude: They make a line of dad friendly diaper bags (Does he really want to be called a "Dude" in this scenario?)

My one suspicion as to why the baby industry goes so far on a limb with their naming conventions - to be DIFFERENT. They are trying anything to be different because there are SO many players out there ;) Probably too many. Making the job of us parent-shoppers that much harder.

Have I missed any other horribly named baby products? I'm quite certain this list isn't even close to be complete. So please, comment below and share the love!
