As we get ready to welcome our newest bundle I have been catching up on all the hip and inventive baby gear that has surfaced in the past 5 years. Of course, the stroller is one of the most essential pieces, so I have been taking my time…
There's nothing sexier than leaky boobs, am I right, breastfeeding mamas? Not. Having popped out a newborn just weeks ago, I'm currently leakier than a broken faucet and have already been in a few un-sexy, publicly embarrassing situation…

File under problems I never thought I'd have: Agonizing over double strollers. With a 17-month-old in tow and a brand new baby, I've been feeling the pressure to pick the perfect ride. If I was still in New York where my primary means of…
I remember putting off trimming my son's nails for days when he was born, because I was afraid of accidentally cutting his delicate fingers off with the baby nail clipper and suddenly finding myself in a scene worthy of Quentin Tarantino…
Shopping for baby gifts might just be among our favorite kind of shopping to do, and we've featured no shortage of amazing baby gift ideas on our site this year. (If we do say so ourselves). After much consideration, deliberation, and de…
Winter officially started just only a week ago, which means we’ve still got plenty of cold weather ahead for sweaters and hats and outerwear to wrap the kids in. We know, we can't believe it either. And if your kids are anything like our…
While we love finding the cutest baby clothes for showers (and our staff members who are going through some sort of group fertility thing this year) as our kids get older, we're so happy to get to look for more cool clothes for older kid…
Having three babies in the winter means I spent three Decembers struggling with whether or not I should invest in a maternity winter coat I would only wear for a month or two. Same with holiday party dresses. It was such a shame to buy c…
Maybe you've been there, too--out holiday shopping or enjoying a lovely family day when your kid hops out of the stroller and down it goes. Thanks, overstuffed stroller bag! There is a chance that tipped strollers could be a thing of the…
If there was anything ever that made me think to myself boy I wish I had a baby right now it's this hilarious Mr. T holiday onesie by Cool Mom Picks favorite Mi Cielo . This isn't the first time I've been in love with the baby gifts from…
If you didn't get a chance to snag one of the aden + anais and (RED) swaddle blankets that support The Global Fund earlier this year, you're still in luck. You can treat a baby you love --while you help other babies--with this brand new …
I'm closing in on seven months pregnant and the chill in the air is leaving me with the dilemma: Do I buy a winter maternity coat when all I want is to make my own super cozy coat work for the few months I will really need it? I love all…
Like maybe some of you, my three-year-old has two small but separate wardrobes: The inexpensive, easily replaceable outfits he wears to nursery school; and the few higher quality, trendy kids' clothes I save for the days he's not paintin…
I never would have guessed that a ten-pound baby could bring so much joy--and so much back pain. I've recently been trying out the Orbit Baby car seat, and from my perspective it's a game changer. Plus a real back-saver that I'm thinking…
The days of fabulous heels are gone for this ex-New Yorker. Pregnant or not, I live in cute, comfy flats these days. And although I'm not the matchy-matchy type, expecting a little girl has me thinking about the occasional mommy and me o…
We're always so excited to find nursing tops that are cute enough to wear beyond the confines of our bedroom. We're also huge fans of double duty maternity/nursing tops, because who wants to invest in multiple tops that you'll wear for s…
The long season of "eat, drink, and be merry" is almost upon us, so it's time for you pregnant, breastfeeding, or abstaining-from-alcohol mamas to consider what you'll be sipping from now until the ball drops on another year. Fortunately…
I'm all about the function and not the form when it comes to baby bibs, so I'm not usually one to freak out over a cute one. But then I saw the glitter baby bibs from Luna on the Moon , and everything changed. Okay, that may be a bit hyp…
So yeah, making your own baby food can become daunting and tedious surprisingly fast, even for people like me who love to cook, and even if we have awesome baby food gadgets like the excellent Beaba Babycook . But even with the Beaba (an…
Finding a winter coat for the baby always seems easy, but it can be a challenge to find a hat that is logo, character and cheesy design-free. We came across these delightful, updated-retro styles from Little Sun Hat that I think will do …
It's no secret we're fans of gorgeous cashmere , for ourselves and for our kids , even if we do tend to covet it from afar. So imagine our delight when we recently stumbled upon a new cashmere line--this time, just for babies. I know, lo…
Baby bathtubs aren't exactly the sexiest type of baby gear--I'd much rather look at the latest strollers and bassinets all day long, I admit it. But tubs are an everyday necessity that all new parents need, so I've narrowed it down to fo…
We've been longtime fans of aden + anais and all their lovely textiles for our babies, plus the modern nursery furniture and stroller designs from Stokke are some of our favorites. So when we heard the two of them were partnering to brin…
