Transition Your Baby from Breast to Bottle with Mimijumi

Courtesy mimijumi

As every breastfeeding mother knows, the hardest thing to do is to get your baby to take a bottle.

So, mimijumi has created the Very Hungry ($15) and Not So Hungry ($14) collection for those bottle picky tots.

Designed to mimic the shape and feel of a natural feeding, the BPA- and phthalates-free silicon nipple won’t express milk until the baby fully latches on.

Plus, the wide nylon container is easy to clean and easy to fill up.

To learn more about or to buy this cool bottle, go to mimijumi.com.

Finding the right position for you and your baby while you feed takes a lot of practice and adjustment.

But thanks to Simplisse‘s new breastfeeding pillow, the Gia ($40), getting comfy is a lot easier.

Angled to help your baby’s digestion and to reduce reflux, the soft, quilted cushion is both anti-bacterial and stain-resistant — two pluses for harried moms.

Plus, you can use it alone or with a machine washable cotton shell that features cute, kid-friendly prints.

For more information about the pillow and to locate stores, go to simplisse.com.

Added bonus: It features a cushy non-slip shoulder strap and stroller attachment rings so it’s easy to tote around.

Christina Milian Shares Her Mother (and Daughter!) Must-Haves

Sara Jaye Weiss/Startraks

Just call her a bargain buyer!

When it comes to stocking her wardrobe, mom Christina Milian is all about easy-to-wear, affordable fashion.

“It’s not always about the price or designer label,” the singer, 30, said during Pampers‘ Play-a-Palooza party at Dylan’s Candy Bar in New York City on Sept. 21.

“People always assume that I shop at these high-end stores and only wear designers, and that’s not true. My daughter [Violet Madison] comes first, always! So most of my money is spent on her.”

Still, Milian stresses, a new mom deserves to splurge every now and then.

Breastfeeding and pumping don’t necessarily go hand in hand, but for moms who work or often travel, finding a good pump is a necessity. Our current fave is the Hygeia Enjoye Breast Pump ($320). Easy-to-use and requiring minimal time and effort, it’s the answer to pleasant pumping (well, as pleasant as pumping can be!), which is music to any mom’s ears.

BornFree Debuts Recyclable Bottles

Courtesy BornFree

Talk about eco-friendly!

Celebrity favorite BornFree — everyone from Jessica Alba and Matthew McConaughey to Sandra Bullock are fans — recently debuted a collection of plastic bottles that are 100 percent recyclable and BPA-free.

Might seem like a small thing, but for every ton of plastic that is recycled we save the equivalent of two people’s energy use for a year.

Besides being great for the environment, the bottles also feature the BornFree’s innovative venting system which significantly cuts down on colic.

Our faves are the versions decorated with adorable prints (left).

For more information on the company’s recycling program, go to newbornfree.com/eco-friendly.
